Highlight reel of JD Vance (not a socialist!) calling to "seize the institutions," "seize the administrative state," "seize the assets" of enemy foundations, "seize the endowment" to "penalize these endowments for being on the wrong side of some of these culture war issues."

JD Vance identifying himself as part of "the postliberal right" and saying, "there is no meaningful distinction between the public and the private sector in the American regime" at a May 2023 ISI event with his friends Patrick Deneen & Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts:

"I certainly agree that the country is likely to fragment, but I don't think that rules out the possibility of mini-Caesars," Charles Haywood (who has given $390,500 to Claremont Institute since 2022) said on a 2022 New Founding podcast. "The most efficient way of reconstructing a fragmented country into multiple smaller countries is through authoritarian rule, perhaps then giving way to some other form of monarchy."

Red flag more of us should've noticed: Tucker Carlson featured Charles Haywood on Tucker Carlson Today in Sep. 2022, calling him one of "the brightest lights online." Haywood explained several pillars of his "Foundationalist" manifesto, including "the subordination of economics to politics." "I would simply not allow any corporation or business entity to have more than 5% of its given market, narrowly defined," Haywood said before praising a Biden Admin bureaucrat. Paraphrasing another line from his manifesto, Haywood said "government should have very limited ends, and unlimited means to achieve those ends." Tucker and Haywood mocked appeals to free markets as "Zombie Reaganism" only believed by "boomercons," in a manner that will sound familiar to anyone who's had the misfortune of interacting with recent Claremont Institute fellows. Haywood has given Claremont $585,000 since 2020.

Tucker Carlson torches Kevin Roberts, "who I knew, and really liked," saying, "He was weak. He decided he wanted his job more than to tell the truth." Of Heritage Foundation, Tucker says, "They should be a force for good, but I don't see how they ever will be." h/t Audrey Fahlberg

"You have to mimic James Fishback's rhetoric," Kevin Roberts said he told his children, in a 12/2024 Mar-a-Lago speech singing James Fishback's praises, "both personally and on behalf of all of us at Heritage Foundation," calling Fishback "truly one of the most articulate people I know."

📼 "Caesarism, which I would think of as an authoritarian reconstructor of a society's polity, is something that would solve - at least potentially - the problems that we face today," American Mind Publication Committee member Charles Haywood said on a 2022 New Founding podcast

"What we have defined as 'conservatism' over the last roughly 50 years is really a form of right-liberalism," JD Vance's postliberal mentor Patrick Deneen said during an October 2020 interview. "It's a species of liberalism that emphasized - that has emphasized especially - what should be the dominant role of the free market in exercising our rights and freedoms as choosing individuals."

Episode 1 of the New Founding podcast, released in May 2023, was an interview with Charles Haywood - a "Foundationalist" crank who has donated $390,500 to Claremont Institute since 2022. Predicting America will undergo a "relatively peaceful" "civil fracture" by 2030, Haywood said, "Most of American society does nothing of net social value. Well over 50% of the people in white collar and semi-white collar type jobs, 95 plus percent in academia, probably closer to 99% in academia, all of those people provide no value, and at some point that will become evident." "I think there's no positive outcome without getting rid of the stupid, so I think it's very important to build these structures so they can be dropped into place when the underbrush is cleared with fire," Haywood said before spelling out how New Founding fits into his vision. "My theory is that some small amount are ideological enough to want to go down fighting, but the rest of them will simply change their views and get a job that allows them to eat, and that will presumably be a job that's set up through the structures of people like New Founding, that are setting up the structures for companies and businesses that provide real value," Haywood explained (before predicting there would be a civil war if Trump was reelected in 2024).

Last November, JD Vance's postliberal mentor Patrick Deneen said the U.S. Constitution is leading us to "either despotism or civil war." "The solution lies, then, in an updated form of a mixed constitution, and that's where I developed or I lit upon this phrase 'aristopopulism.'"

Watch Charles Haywood, who has poured $585,000 into Claremont Institute since 2020, assert in a Sep. 2023 interview that "classical liberalism is merely a subset of left poison." There's a simple reason thought leaders of the "New" "Right" don't sound conservative: they aren't.

"Schmitt is a theorist. That is, he is a theorist of the forms of government that have emerged in the Western world over the past several hundred years, and why these have pros and cons, and ultimately why liberalism - defined more or less as the political theories that come out of the Enlightenment, especially parliamentarianism, as he wrote in a European context - is an inherently defective mechanism," Charles Haywood said during a 2024 podcast. "Schmitt is very precise in his delineating and defining of things, and all of it is very strictly reality-based, so it's very dense, very hard to get through, but it's certainly worth peoples' time." Charles Haywood is a member of Claremont's American Mind Publication Committee. Carl Schmitt was a Nazi.
