Know More. Do More.

We are vexed by the Roman goddess Fortuna, it would seem. The Roman stoic Seneca said of her that Fortuna “doth bestow the throne’s high boon with mocking hand” and that whatever she “has raised on high, she lifts but to bring low.” Alas, this would seem to be the state of our civilization.

Today’s crisis is unlike any other. In the past, no matter the scale of the crisis, problems were concrete — they were real. Today the crisis is different — logic is denied, reason disparaged, and increasingly the agents of chaos working for the Deep State seem intent on overthrowing reality itself. The rebellion against reality is revealed by the rise of transgenderism and transhumanism, by aggressive attempts to censor opinions that otherwise accord with reality and the rise of alternative consciousness — more broadly known as artificial intelligence. This tells us all we need to know: reality is to be replaced with artifice.

The New American stands against all this. This is suggested in our long-standing slogan: “That freedom shall not perish.” Freedom is anchored in the natural rights — the real rights — that exist for each person as a natural consequence of life and that were identified in the immortal language of Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence, that all people “are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness.”
