NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch is Turning New York City into a Surveillance Colony

by Matt Wolfson | Oct 29, 2025 | Featured Articles, Politics

In a recent report for the Libertarian Institute, I investigated Zionists’ role in creating the crisis point at which New York City now finds itself: caught between a colonial elite which has commandeered government and a progressive-socialist backlash to that elite which proposes to expand government. In this report, I will trace how, in response to the progressive-socialist threat to their power, Zionists and their allies are expanding government in new and frightening directions. The leading player in this operation, like in all good intelligence ops, is not a colorful or charismatic...

How Zionist Influence in New York Gave Rise to Zohran Mamdani

by Matt Wolfson | Oct 14, 2025 | Featured Articles, Politics

Coverage of Zohran Mamdani’s run for New York City mayor is focused on the outsized politics at play in the race: democratic socialism, Islam, state-owned grocers, former Governor Andrew Cuomo, until recently incumbent Mayor Eric Adams, and President Donald Trump. But this risks missing the real story in New York, which is the decades-long creation and maintenance of a financialized, factionalized city of free market distortions and middle class displacement at the hands of powerful Zionists and their allies that led to backlash and Mamdani’s rise. Rewinding Mamdani’s catapault to politcal...

How Zionists Hijacked MAGA

by Matt Wolfson | Sep 24, 2025 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy, Politics

On the Wednesday of the last week of July, a former Florida State University employee approached a man wearing an Israeli Defense Force (IDF) shirt on campus and began berating him for his support of a state she believed was committing genocide. By the next day, she was arrested, on the basis of the person wearing the IDF t-shirt alleging (with video support) that she gave him “maybe just a push” on the shoulder and also alleging (without any support) that she “definitely just hate-crimed” him. The attorney general of the United States, Pam Bondi, who directs the Department of Justice, had...

Billionaire Bill Ackman’s Plan to ‘Educate’ America’s Next Elite

by Matt Wolfson | Sep 18, 2025 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy, Politics

Empires, unlike revolutions, don’t have heralds; they work off quiet aggrandizements of power, not bold declarations of freedom. But America’s imperial class appears to have a member who’s missed that memo: the Zionist hedge fund manager William Ackman, a self-selected Patrick Henry of an elite that cannot want one. For the last few years, as his allies have quietly worked to curtail popular politics, Ackman has become a reliable articulator at any given moment of just what game they are actually playing. In 2023 and 2024, as his allies subtly tried to float alternatives to conservative...

American Students and Professors Are Collateral Victims of Zionism

by Matt Wolfson | Aug 26, 2025 | Featured Articles

On May 17, Cecilia Culver, a George Washington University double major in economics and statistics and the recipient of GW’s Columbian College of Arts and Sciences (CCAS) Distinguished Scholar Award, came to the stage of GW’s Lisner Auditorium to deliver a commencement address. Culver, whose CV is in no way political (her college activities included Epsilon Sigma Alpha and the Association for Women in Mathematics; her recent summer internships were at Ernst & Young and the Federal Reserve Board) used her speech to address what she said was her university’s complicity in Israel’s attacks...

Who’s Funding the Attacks on Thomas Massie—and What Networks are Backing Them?

by Matt Wolfson | Aug 11, 2025 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy, Politics

In the past decade of political upheaval, less than a handful of successful candidates have laid down direct challenges to America’s military-industrial complex. Thomas Massie, the U.S. Congressman from Kentucky’s 4th District, is first and foremost among them. In June, President Donald Trump announced an open season on Massie, for the perceived crimes of having voted against the deficit-busting “Big Beautiful Bill” and opposing Trump’s strikes on Iran because they occurred without authorization from Congress. “Open season” in this case meant the formation of a MAGA Pac run by Trump’s former...

Domestic Militarization is Trump’s Economic Plan

by Matt Wolfson | Jul 24, 2025 | Criminal Justice, Economics, Featured Articles, Foreign Policy

If spending on war is the politically easiest way to juice an economy, then the smoothest applications for this spending are wars at home, the easiest to begin and to control. This is why, at an accelerating rate since the 1990s, America’s government has waged wars against Americans—domestic pushes against real threats created from Washington policies that Washington then uses to expand its power. These wars range from the War on Crime to the Global War on Terror to a "War on Unauthorized Immigration," one which will not break from past precedent but turbocharge it. Familiar players created...

Trump Makes War the ‘Health of the State’

by Matt Wolfson | Jul 15, 2025 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy, Politics

“War,” Randolph Bourne wrote, is “the health of the state.” But war is also, it has recently and quietly become clear, the cheapest and quickest antidote when the state gets sick. This antidote, in fact, represents the most significant part of President Donald Trump’s agenda since he assumed office on January 20, after running what many supporters believed was an antiwar campaign. Instead he has presided over an infusion of war spending to stabilize America with trickle-down job creation at home and resource extraction abroad. This strategy represents the ratcheting up of what American...
