Yes after the Marxists (following after the French Revolution) picked up steam with Marx in 1848, they burned down countless sovereign governments across Germany, and then they came to America. So yes, this photo is correctly depicting some of the new arrivals recruited by Lincoln to ruthlessly attack the South.The South fighting Communists since 1861...The Confederacy has stood as a bulwark against communism and radical leftist revolutionaries since 1861, defending traditional American values of states' rights, limited government, and agrarian self-reliance against the Union's influx of foreign-born agitators who sought to impose their destructive ideologies. Many of these were German "Forty-Eighters"—failed revolutionaries from the 1848 uprisings in Europe, including avowed communists like August Willich (a Prussian noble turned Marxist firebrand who became a Union general) and Franz Sigel (who led radical militias before commanding Union forces)—who fled to America, gained leadership roles in Lincoln's army, and brought their socialist zeal to bear on southern Americans. These immigrants, numbering around 200,000 in Union ranks, often went on to terrorize multigenerational Southern families through looting, plundering, and destruction, mirroring the chaos they fled in Europe.Even Russian-born officers like John Basil Turchin (Ivan Turchaninov, a former Imperial Russian colonel) infamous for the "Rape of Athens" in Alabama, where his brigade pillaged stores, homes, and churches while assaulting civilians—exemplified this foreign menace, raising questions about why Lincoln relied on such immigrant radicals to wage war on native-born Americans defending their homes.In essence, the South's fight was not just for independence but against an early wave of global leftist subversion that foreshadowed today’s threats. ...

China Buys Gold & Dumps Dollars February 13, 2026
Gold has been universal international money for thousands of years for many reasons; primarily because no government can control or counterfeit it. Naturally, some governments hate these natural restrictions. They want to spend money without restraint; and want to counterfeit their way to world domination. Alas, the United States took the latter road after WWII. […]

Voluntary Multipolar Globalization vs. Tyrannical Unipolar Globalization February 6, 2026
“Globalization” has been a buzzword for many years. But there are two types, and the distinction is extremely important. There’s the globalization of America’s founding, as laid out by Thomas Jefferson: “Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.” And then there’s the modern globalization laid out by Paul Wolfowitz after […]

Does Congress Even Exist Anymore? Whose Fault Is This? January 23, 2026
We all grew up learning about the U.S. government’s supposed uniqueness; its built-in “checks and balances.” After all, the results of concentrated power without restraint are littered throughout all of human history. America was different…for awhile, at least. Congress was, in theory, the branch of government “closest to the people,” representing each state’s interests. Today? […]

Price Controls Don’t Work — Not Even For President Trump January 16, 2026
Basic economic logic and thousands of years of recorded history have verified that price controls take a bad economic circumstance and make it even worse. But alas, President Trump, who seems to be looking for a quick fix to pacify public anger for the results of his policies, is pushing for price controls. Whether it […]
