DDH | The American Crises (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In September 1776, New York newspapers carried a mocking letter from a supposed eyewitness who claimed that George Washington and his “dirty pack of New England long faces” were losing the war. The author did not exist. The letter was British propaganda, part of an organized effort to ridicule the Continental Army, undermine public confidence, and convince Americans that resistance had become hopeless. The uncomfortable part was that the propaganda did not need to invent the defeats. Washington’
Loma (opens the original)
Read excerpt

You could buy bread, order coffee, or enjoy a pint without first demanding a political confession from the person behind the counter. That boundary is rapidly disappearing, particularly when activists can search public records, identify a business owner’s political contributions, and organize economic punishment without pausing to consider what the person actually supported
Down With Socialism!!! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Congress has managed to discover socialism. This might seem encouraging until you remember that the national debt has reached $40 trillion, the federal government still lacks a genuine budget, and lawmakers apparently have plenty of time for nonbinding resolutions designed to produce campaign advertisements. House Resolution 1490 was presented as a condemnation of socialism. It could not create a law, reduce spending, reform an agency, or change the life of a single American. What it could do wa
