ILANA refuses to dish anything but reality about the future of the United States from the vantage point immigration. She explains why the DEMOGRAPHIC tipping point has been reached, with reference to the exponential nature of America’s annual intake of legal and illegal immigrants, and immigration law, for which the Uniparty is responsible. Broadly speaking, anyone (other than white South Africans) can claim “credible fear” at the US south-western border, and must by law be given safe passage. That, combined with family unification policies—one legal immigrant brings in a tribe—and birthright citizenship, a legal aberration practiced by no serious country, have made population replacement a fait accompli, a done deal. Don’t despair, Americans; look to localism, counsels ilana, who further dispels, with chapter and verse, any illusions that life-long dissidents have representation on Fox News. Had we listened to Tucker Carlson's resident COVID expert, Dr. Marty Makary, a Jonny-come-lately on all matters COVID, we’d be vaccinated. Fortunately, we ignored his ilk. Ilana closes by pointing out why “mixed race” racism-spotters like Markle and Obama identify exclusively as black. Meanwhile, David suggests that it is NOT a coincidence that the West is embracing the means of its own destruction and that since demography IS destiny the inevitable must happen. Further, the UK is changing dramatically and many major cities are now white minority. This is celebrated in liberal salons but then they fear to walk the streets. David expresses his contempt for King Charles the WOKE.

DAVID VANCE is one of the most outspoken, fearless political commentators in the UK and bears the scars for it. Having been in front-line politics as Deputy Leader of the UK Unionist Party for some years, he was delighted to oppose the anti-democratic Belfast Agreement and the Clintonian-Blair forces behind that. He even wrote a book about it all called “Unionism Decayed” (2008). David has been a successful businessman for decades and prides himself on his independence. He has turned in stellar appearances on ALL mainstream UK political programs, before being … cancelled. He doesn’t care!

ILANA MERCER, paleolibertarian author and theorist, has written a weekly column since 1999, in which first principles and a fidelity to reality have combined to yield a predictive, fun bit of writing on the most controversial, pressing issues of the day.

As Elon Musk starts the restoration of Twitter, David is pleased to find his account is back! It's a long way to go but it's a start. ilana highlights the utter failure of the GOP to go after the right targets. Forget Hunter and his laptop, go after Joe Biden for treason. David and ilana both agree that in the UK and US, the political "elite" have zero interest in protecting our borders

In our latest Hard Truth, David and ilana debate Donald Trump’s public attack on Ron DeSantis on the eve of the Midterm elections. Ilana argues De Santis is a formidable figure for the 2024 Presidential race with the uncanny, practical ability to govern pragmatically in accordance with constitutional, first principles.
David argues that Trump is a formidable figure and that GOP voters could end up with a Trump/DeSantis joint ticket in 2024 and that would be the best of all worlds.
Turning to the great Climate con - COP 27 - hosted this year in Egypt, David expresses his frustration at the latest UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak suggesting that events in Ukraine demonstrated the need to accelerate the rush to decarbonising our economies and hence returning us to the dark ages. Ilana points out that our current hydrocarbon energy sources are not only incredibly efficient but environmentally pristine and are the foundation for both global prosperity and environmental husbandry

In our latest Hard Truth, David and ilana question why the GOP establishment, even the MAGA candidates, WON'T EXPOSE AND LABEL the DEMOCRATS FOR THE DEGENERATES THEY ARE. Ilana argues it is not enough to just talk about Inflation and gas prices. She suggests that many of them lack the courage to take the battle to the core of what the Dems are ALL ABOUT, BE IT pedophilia in the classroom; anti-White Critical Race Theory; the end of sovereign America and of all common decency. Attack is the best form of defense but ilana suggests this seems beyond the grasp of the GOP elite. David analyses the changing of the Prime Ministers in the UK, 3 in 4 months. He believes this is a coup d’état against the British people by ruthless globalists with the endgame of taking the UK back into the EU.

In the latest Hard Truth, David and ilana highlight the out of control tyranny of the Democrats exemplified in Biden’s Philadelphia hate speech 2nd September, in which he identified 80 million Trump voters as domestic terrorists. ilana highlights the supine response from the Establishment GOP which fails to confront Biden’s hate speech and in many ways colludes with it against MAGA. At a time when young white kids are being beaten to a pulp in the classroom by a core Democrat supporter base, GOP cucks wring their hands, look away, and whine about “gasoline prices and inflation.” The tragic irony is that the US is being turned into a place where criminal aliens are gifted with civil rights lawyers, as January 6th political prisoners are left to rot behind bars. And that’s a very hard truth indeed.

In the latest Hard Truth, Ilana commiserates with David on the death of UK Monarch for 70 years Queen Elizabeth. Constitutional Monarchy is imperfect, David argues, but it has served the UK well. Ilana explained that such has been the corruption of the US Constitutional Republic that this explains some of the antipathy towards the British Royal Family on social media. Both ilana and David agreed that the fine sentiments in Queen's first Christmas broadcast have not been lived up by Her late Majesty. Pretty words without action do not cut up

In the latest Hard Truth, David and ilana tackle the staggering decline of the quality of female political leaders. From the UK’s Iron Lady the great Maggie Thatcher to Finland’s pouting Party Girl Sanna Marin, why has it all gone so badly wrong? Ilana captured the essence of Lady Thatcher years ago when she observed that Thatcher was an individualist, not a feminist. By contrast Sanna Marin is a feminist not an individualist. David argues that feminism has destroyed any merit in female political leaders and more than a few XY ones! ilana and David both agree that it is unfortunate that women ever got the vote as the feminisation of politics and ilana bravely agreed to give up her vote if the whole thing could be undone! As a final topic, the role of Donald Trump is going along with the lockdowns was discussed and ilana and David agreed that Republican need to stop being so uncritical about his role in the destruction of the economy back then.

In the latest Hard Truth, David and ilana tackle the US Supreme Court Overturning of Roe Vs Wade with their unique perspectives. Ilana challenges : “Let progressive women—especially the fulminating fiends rioting across the country—suction their wombs for all I care. As evolutionary psychologist Ed Dutton has suggested, “Some people voluntarily resigning from the gene pool is a good thing.” David had sympathy with this view but is worried that Moloch worship is alive and well in America. He believes that life is sacred and protecting it is important. David and ilana agree that the conservative movement makes a mistake by overly focusing on this issue.

In the aftermath of the Ulvade school massacre, with 19 children and two teachers dead, the Stupid Party says, “Just arm the teachers.” You want to train and arm teachers and faculty staff members to protect your kids? Have you seen what falls under the category “teacher”? Seen the people who zealously inculcate ungrammatical pronoun illiteracy? Who promote and make systemic anti-white racism and exotic age-inappropriate sexuality? Have you seen these mountains of flesh videoing themselves gyrating obscenely? The same “dedicated” pedagogues who took two years off for COVID?! David and ilana tackle some very hard truths but finish with a light hearted insight on the hardest truth of them all"

In last week’s “Hard Truth” podcast—David Vance, ilana Mercer and guest Jack Kerwick (introduced here https://rumble.com/v15a75f-tucker-cancels-gop-so-should-you-republicans-have-done-nothing-to-defend-yo.html) cancelled the Grand Old Party (GOP). And on good grounds. The Republican Party HAS never stood up for you, WILL never stand up for you and is NOT going to do what it takes. Past is prologue.

As Dr. Boyd Cathey has observed (https://barelyablog.com/national-review-conservatism-as-ugly-as-the-promulgators/ ), the “party which never conserves anything” had been exposed as such as far back as 1875. “The great Southern author, Robert Lewis Dabney, writing a decade after the end of the War Between the States … expressed presciently this tendency of dominant, post-war Northern conservatism”:

The history of the Republican Party is “that it demurs to each aggression of the progressive party, and aims to save its credit by a respectable amount of growling, but always acquiesces at last in the innovation. What was the resisted novelty of yesterday is to-day one of the accepted principles of conservatism.” https://barelyablog.com/national-review-conservatism-as-ugly-as-the-promulgators/
Some questions, however, lingered. Were we and our guest, Dr. Kerwick, being too theoretically pure? Perhaps conservatives should just put up and shut up about the Only Game in Town? Succinctly put by a viewer and reader:

“Yup! The Republicans suck. But the Democrats want to kill me.”
https://www.unz.com/imercer/tucker-cancels-gop-so-should-you-republicans-have-done-nothing-to-defend-you/#comment-5350787

To that, David provided the perfectly plain answer, as is his wont. WATCH. So did Andrew Breitbart. WATCH AND SUBSCRIBE. David and ilana also get down to some "Monkey Business." Look, “Monkey Pox” is not a worry. All you have to do is avoid Biblically prohibited copulation. But beware! The Powers, however, do want to make “Monkey Pox” a lockdown affair.

(Oh, last week, https://rumble.com/v15a75f-tucker-cancels-gop-so-should-you-republicans-have-done-nothing-to-defend-yo.html, ilana went with a woke aesthetic, as viewers of the “Hard Truth” podcast told her bluntly. So, no more unwashed hair on this May 26, 2022 “Hard Truth” episode. Ilana cleaned up "good," as they'd say in the South.)

In his June 20, 2020 monologue, Tucker Carlson, for practical purposes, cancelled the Republican Party: “Property was looted, people were beaten and killed and Republicans joined the side doing the looting, beating and killing. President of the Heritage Foundation and think tanks on the right climbed into … law enforcement and ordinary Americans, calling them racists, ignoring the damage done to their property and person.”

Jack Kerwick has been anatomizing the ConOink establishment failures and betrayals for over a decade: https://www.beliefnet.com/columnists/attheintersectionoffaithandculture/2021/01/post-2020-the-time-for-nevergop.html, “in the country bequeathed to us by the generation that, in the midst of a smallpox epidemic, fought and defeated the most powerful empire in the world in order to be a self-governing union of sovereign states—subjected itself to a nationwide internment. The United State of America became the Interned States of America as the Constitution of the Old Republic was indefinitely revoked, the economy crushed, and ‘the little platoons’—as Burke referred to those buffers between the individual and the State, those forms of community constitutive of civil society and in the absence of which human flourishing would be impossible—were radically undermined. … And all of this occurred in a country with a Republican President, a Republican-controlled Senate, a Supreme Court dominated by Republican appointees, and a majority of whose state legislatures and governors are Republican.”

HARD TRUTH’S David Vance and ilana Mercer speak to Jack about the irreparably hopeless Republican Racket. RIP, GOP.
