Nichts zeigt dies deutlicher als die Reaktionen auf die Klimakatastrophe: Hier jene, die versuchen, das Schlimmste zu verhindern, dort jene, die alles tun, um aus dem Verbrennen fossiler Stoffe Profit zu ziehen.

Spätestens seit der Corona-Pandemie ist klar: Unsere Grundrechte lassen sich viel leichter außer Kraft setzen, als wir es lange Zeit für möglich gehalten hätten. Wie genau konnte dies geschehen? Sind doch unsere Grundrechte ein wichtiger Anker unserer Demokratie; sie schützen uns vor Übergriffen des Staates und sichern gleichzeitig öffentliche Leistungen wie Bildung und Gesundheit. Deshalb wurden sie im Laufe der letzten 250 Jahre Schritt für Schritt proklamiert und in nationales und internationales Recht integriert.

Was man wirklich über Klima-Kipppunkte wissen muss. Überschwemmungen, Hitzewellen, Dürren, Waldbrände – die Auswirkungen des immer extremeren Wetters sind auch hierzulande zunehmend spürbar. Aber all das ist erst der Anfang: Weil das 1,5-Grad-Limit nicht mehr zu halten ist und die Erderhitzung fortschreitet, drohen in naher Zukunft im Klimasystem mehrere sogenannte Kipppunkte überschritten zu werden. Die Folgen wären einschneidend, auch für Deutschland. Benjamin von Brackel und Toralf Staud liefern, was man über Kipppunkte wirklich wissen muss.

The Left has seized on our economic troubles as an excuse to “blame the rich guy” and paint a picture of capitalism and the free market as selfish, greedy, and cruel. Exactly the opposite is true, says Father Robert Sirico in his thought-provoking book Defending the Free Market: The Moral Case for a Free Economy. Father Sirico argues that a free economy actually promotes charity, selflessness, and kindness. In Defending the Free Market, he shows why free-market capitalism is not only the best way to ensure individual success and national prosperity but also the surest route to a moral and socially just society.

New York Times best-selling author David Horowitz exposes not only the progressive war against Christianity but also a war against America and its founding principles - which are Christian in their origin. Dark Agenda is about an embattled religion, but, most of all, it is about our imperiled nation. Tackling a broad range of issues from prayer in the schools to the globalist mindset, Horowitz traces the anti-Christian movement to its roots in communism.

The United States - the world's great bastion of freedom - is sliding toward socialism. High-profile bailouts and a stimulus bill have toppled the walls between government and private sectors. Federal control now extends in various ways to education, health care, financial markets, real estate, businesses, and religion. And as out-of-control government spending and debt increase, America is drained of the economic and political strength its people fought for and worked so hard to achieve.
