Breitbart: Trump Investigates Biden's Allowing of Youth Smuggling by Labor, Sex Traffickers

Forbes: Medicaid Cuts Threaten A Key House Vote On Trump's Agenda Tomorrow—Here's Why The GOP Is Divided

The Imaginative Conservative: What John Locke Really Said
Willmoore Kendall challenged the conventional view of John Locke as a proponent of individualism and natural rights, arguing instead that Locke endorsed majoritarianism, where individual rights are granted by society rather than being inherent. Kendall's analysis of Locke's "Second Treatise" revealed that rights are functional and contingent on societal needs, dismissing the notion of absolute rights.
In his later work, Kendall further distanced himself from the idea of a "latent premise" that the majority would respect individual rights, concluding that Locke's framework allows for unlimited power of the majority without explicit limitations on their actions. This led Kendall to categorize Locke alongside thinkers like Machiavelli and Hobbes, positioning him as a progenitor of modern ideology rather than a defender of enduring political philosophy.
