Our counterculture revolution is here
and it is a revival
Posted By: Moritz55, 9/23/2025 1:37:37 PM
Something big is happening with America’s young people. It has been building for the past two years. It centers on faith, purpose, and a renewal toward more traditional American values. This new American youth counterculture movement looks very different from the one that burst onto the scene in the 1960s. Sixty years ago, the youth movement on college campuses set out to upend our culture’s status quo — the rebellion created a seismic cultural and political shift away from post World War II traditionalism.

Something big is happening with America’s young people. It has been building for the past two years. It centers on faith, purpose, and a renewal toward more traditional American values. This new American youth counterculture movement looks very different from the one that burst onto the scene in the 1960s.
Sixty years ago, the youth movement on college campuses set out to upend our culture’s status quo — the rebellion created a seismic cultural and political shift away from post World War II traditionalism.
President Trump wrapped up his speech at Charlie Kirk’s memorial by embracing Kirk’s widow Erika.
It was a moment of paternal tenderness after Trump vacillated between extolling Kirk as a “martyr for American freedom” and not so subtly suggesting he and his administration would avenge the murder.
In his 42 minutes of wide-ranging remarks, the president described Kirk, who mobilized the youth vote and is credited with helping deliver the electoral victory for Trump, as a “giver much more than a taker” and “master builder of people.”
If Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez plans to run for president in 2028, she’s just made the biggest mistake of her political career. That speech of hers will be written in ink, and it will haunt her for years to come. Why? Because she didn’t know the first thing about Charlie Kirk, and everyone who watched her give that speech knows she’s either ignorant or lying.
We know that on the Left, they do not believe in any kind of presumption of innocence when it comes to words. Words are harm. Words are violence. Most of all, words define who you are.
Rep. Bennie Thompson sees AOC’s charge and raises it: “The fact is,” he said in an official statement, “Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric was divisive, disparaging, and too often rooted in grievance. The beliefs he evangelized normalized fringe views on race, sex, and immigration. Unfortunately, his rhetoric resurrected dangerous prejudices of a dark past.” Gosh. Here’s a question, Congressman. What sort of grievance would someone have to entertain in order to be moved to describe someone who simply sought to engage young people in conversation as “divisive” and “disparaging?” Follow-up question: Did Charlie Kirk try to “normalize” fringe ideas about “race, sex, and immigration?”
The assassin who took Charlie Kirk’s life on Sept. 10 may have thought he could kill Kirk’s ideas with the same bullet that he used to steal the lifeblood from the conservative icon, but he was wrong.
The outpouring not just of grief but of fellowship that followed the assassination has shown that people who are vessels for an ideal continue to pour forth inspiration even when the vessel is shattered.
No one under the age of 60 can properly remember the events of 1968, but I was 12 years old that spring when two other icons were brought down by assassins’ bullets, and I vividly recall the pain
It’s been one week since Kirk was shot dead while debating on a college campus, and the Right is reacting more viscerally than we’ve seen from it in recent memory. Not only that, but we’re seeing worldwide support for Kirk, mass demonstrations against illegal immigration in Europe, the fall of France’s government, and a grassroots movement saying, “Enough is enough,” here in America. Victor Davis Hanson analyzes the events that pushed the West to its boiling point and where we go from here on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”
National Democrats and media critics slammed President Donald Trump’s choice to deploy the National Guard to the crime-ridden streets of Washington, DC as ineffectual and unnecessary — or worse, a dangerous sign of creeping fascism.
As it turns out, one week after Trump’s emergency order commandeering local police quietly expired, his action was a lesson in how quickly empowered law-enforcement officers can clean up a city.
Thirty days after Trump’s August order, the crime statistics are undeniable: Both violent crime and property crime have dropped by roughly a fifth, and carjackings alone declined by 37%.
The hysteria merchants are in high gear again as they respond to the news that Jimmy Kimmel’s ABC talk show has been “preempted indefinitely.” Kimmel got the gate from ABC because of his reckless remarks about the death of Charlie Kirk. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) called the decision “despicable” and undemocratic, asserting that Kimmel has “the right to free speech.” Illinois governor and obvious presidential candidate JB Pritzker said that ABC’s decision was “an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.” Schumer, Pritzker and the many other supposed champions of free speech, of course, blame President Trump and
Two minutes before Charlie Kirk died, I was searching for him on X. I knew he had just kicked off his latest round of college debate tours and I wanted to see him in action.
The first video I saw from his visit to Utah Valley University showed him wearing a broad smile and tossing hats to an audience ready to celebrate him — and disagree with him. He always welcomed both sides.
Then I hit refresh on my feed, and saw the unthinkable. A ghastly scene. Kirk was hit by a bullet. Blood was pouring out of his neck.
At first I assumed it was AI. But of course it wasn’t.
In 2012, I read an article on Breitbart.com that called out liberal bias in the teaching of economics. The author pointed to “distortions” in a high school textbook co-authored by Paul Krugman that dismissed the thinking of supply-side economists. It denied that the tax reduction they helped bring about during the Reagan administration had any effect on economic growth—despite government data showing exactly the opposite: a dramatic surge in job creation and a marked decline in unemployment.
The author declared, “If a student were to submit an essay with such disregard for basic evidence, it would ensure a failing grade.”
“Freedom of speech cannot and will not be silenced.” With these words – spoken in his English that went viral on social media – Lorenzo Caccialupi, 23 years old, a Roman student of Economics and Finance at John Cabot University, recently returned from a semester exchange at San Diego State University, commented to Adnkronos on the killing of Charlie Kirk. “Freedom of expression cannot be silenced,” he explained, adding that he wanted to express solidarity with the activist's family with a video shared online: “I can't stand that there are people celebrating his death. It's really a despicable thing.” Caccialupi had met the activist last May
In an astounding coincidence, as the news arrived that Charlie Kirk, founder and head of the enlightened traditionalist movement Turning Point USA, had been assassinated, I was sitting in the Oval Office of the White House across the Resolute Desk from the President of the United States. Although I have known Donald Trump for more than 25 years and have generally been in touch with him throughout that period, I had not seen him in person for some years. I have written approximately two million words about him, almost all of it reasonably or unambiguously favourable, though not uncritically so, mainly on U.S. internet sites,

Death Penalty for Kirk Assassin? Bad Idea
34 replies
I am not opposed to using the death penalty for specific heinous crimes. Certainly, it was warranted for Timothy McVeigh, and Charlie Kirk’s killing was indeed heinous. However, the alleged assassin is Tyler Robinson and that gives me pause, because there are thousands of Tylers out there ready to make him a martyr.
This hate-filled, deluded, brainwashed community has been groomed deliberately by a Machiavellian academia since the 1960s.
There was a time when public education institutions were staffed with unbiased professors and educated their students with genuine facts and encouraged independent thought. That was back then.
Jimmy Kimmel’s Show to Return to Air: Disney
33 replies
Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show is returning to the air this week, Walt Disney Company said on Sept. 22.
“Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,” the company said in a statement to news outlets. “It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”
A Disney spokeswoman did not immediately return a request for comment.

President Trump signed an executive order Monday designating the shadowy, left-wing group Antifa a “domestic terrorist organization,” according to the White House.
The order comes after Trump teased slapping a terror label on the radical “anti-fascist” group last week.
“I hereby designate Antifa as a ‘domestic terrorist organization,’” read the president’s order. “All relevant executive departments and agencies shall utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations – especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa or any person claiming to act on behalf of Antifa, or for which Antifa or any person claiming to act on behalf of Antifa provided material support,
Swedish professional protester Greta Thunberg has been unceremoniously dumped from a leadership board role in a Gaza-bound, anti-Israel “aid” flotilla as infighting and tensions roil the group.
The Jerusalem Post reports Thunberg, who joined a previous run at the Israeli naval blockade around Gaza in June, appeared on the Global Sumud Flotilla’s website as part of its leadership committee.
At least, that was until last Sunday. Now that posting has been removed.
Before setting sail earlier this month, Thunberg said: “This project is part of a global uprising of people standing up…
Jimmy Kimmel is getting back on the air. The ABC late-night host is returning to broadcast on Tuesday following a brief-but-monumental suspension that sparked a national debate over the Trump Administration’s pressure tactics and the modern limits and consequences of free speech. “Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,” ABC parent The Walt Disney Company said in a statement Monday.
Sinclair Broadcast Group abruptly cancelled plans to air a Charlie Kirk tribute last week after the company’s local ABC affiliates received multiple violent threats — forcing the firm to move the program to YouTube just minutes before it was scheduled to begin, The Post has learned.
The Baltimore-based local TV giant, which owns more than 40 ABC affiliates, yanked the Charlie Kirk tribute late Friday after it was alerted to “local threats directed at specific local ABC stations resulting from [the] ABC suspension” of late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, a source close to the situation told The Post.
AOC Becomes De Facto House Minority Leader
21 replies
Before last Friday’s House vote on a symbolic resolution condemning the assassination of Charlie Kirk and all forms of political violence while honoring his life, the purported leaders of the Democratic Caucus informed its members that they would support the measure. Yet, in a truly vile floor speech prior to the vote, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y) called the resolution “reckless” and claimed Kirk’s “rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.” In the end, less than half of the Democrats voted for the resolution. The rest stood with AOC.
ABC This Week usually opens with some manner of editorial commentary from its rotating hosts. Today was not the exception. Jon Karl opened the broadcast by rightfully and poignantly condemning the brutal assassination of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk. But there is one singular sentence that is a cause for concern and merits observation. Watch the statement below in its full context, with Karl saying: “The murder of Charlie Kirk was not a political act.” JON KARL: Good morning. Welcome to This Week. Later today family, friends, and supporters of Charlie Kirk will gather in Glendale, Arizona, for his memorial. The 31-year-old activist's murder shocked

The grandson of John F. Kennedy is mulling a run for Congress in Manhattan, and he may have “a shot” at winning the Democratic primary next year, according to political observers.
Jack Schlossberg, 32, is best known for his online trolling of various prominent people and unhinged social media posts.
He has impersonated First Lady Melania Trump and frequently rails against his cousin, Robert Kennedy Jr, the Secretary of Health and Human Services. At one point he imitated RFK Jr.’s spasmodic dysphonia, which sometimes makes it difficult for him to speak.
He is said to be eyeing Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler’s seat on the Upper West Side
France and Saudi Arabia hope to use this year’s gathering of world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly and the increasingly horrific war in the Gaza Strip to inject new urgency into the quest for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Those efforts include a new road map for eventual Palestinian statehood in territories Israel seized in the 1967 Mideast war, and moves by several Western countries to join a global majority in recognizing such a state before it has been established.
Britain, Canada and Australia formally recognized a Palestinian state on Sunday, joining nearly 150 countries that have already done so,
Keith Olbermann appeared to threaten the life of Scott Jennings in an extreme way, telling him he's next to be killed and the FBI is now involved.
In a move that most would call insane following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk less than two weeks ago, Olbermann is ready to do anything but turn down the violent rhetoric, telling the Townhall.com host he's next to die.Olbermann's original post, before he deleted it, appeared to be a direct threat to the CNN contributor and Townhall.com host.
It can be seen below in the screenshot. Warning: it contains profanity.
"You're next, mother ……" Olbermann wrote in a reply to Jennings.
Just as the United Nations was preparing to begin its annual general assembly, which will be headlined by President Donald Trump on Tuesday, the United States Secret Service discovered a "massive hidden telecom network" in New York, with startling implications.
According to reports, the now-dismantled system included over 300 servers and 100,000 fake SIM cards that could have been used to overwhelm the 911 network and disable large portions of the city's cell tower network. The dismantled system consisted of over 300 SIM servers and more than 100,000 SIM cards spread within a 35-mile radius of the United Nations headquarters. Investigators say the network could have blacked out
