Description

Society used to have standards for beauty, and we walked away from them. Postmodernism told us truth is subjective and anything goes, so we went from Saint Peter's Basilica to strip mall churches, from classical music to profanity-laced pop, from architecture that stopped you in your tracks to buildings that are just boxes. The people who built those great cathedrals spent their entire lives on something they'd never see finished. That kind of dedication tells you something about what they believed. C.S. Lewis said there is no neutral ground in the universe. Every square inch is claimed by God and counterclaimed by Satan. The way a society builds, dresses, and makes art is never neutral. What we've lost goes deeper than aesthetic taste. Beauty comes from God. When a culture stops caring about one, it usually stops caring about the other.

Episode 59: The Left Politicizes Everything Now — My Newsmax Panel in NYC!

In this special episode of Restoring America, I'm bringing you to the Newsmax set in New York City to react in real time to the top stories of the day. We get into Mamdani's New York and the radical candidates the Democrats keep pushing through, Steven A. Smith dragging Trump into a Knicks game, what denaturalization actually means (and how Obama did it too), blue-state "refugees" carrying failed policies into red states, the lawsuit trying to block Trump's UFC event at the White House, and the questions piling up around California's elections. The pattern underneath all of it is the same: the left politicizes everything, then calls it a scandal only when Trump does it. They're telling us who they are — believe them.
