In this video we’ll discuss the latest bombshell revelations regarding Donald Trump and other elites implicated in the Epstein files as well as the lesser-known role Epstein played in crafting the dystopian world we’re currently living in.

Rise to Power: Mussolini's March on Rome I SLICE History | Full Documentary | Reupload

May 19, 2024 | In the fall of 1922, former teacher and journalist Benito Mussolini had only recently been elected to parliament when he seized power. His legal coup d’état, which began on 24 October in Naples, was a masterstroke.

Standing before 40,000 Fascist party members, he issued an ultimatum to the fragile Italian parliamentary monarchy: “Either they hand us the power, or we will descend on Rome!”

The militants, wearing black shirts and armed with clubs, headed for the capital. Following on from this legendary march on Rome, Mussolini headed up a totalitarian regime that lasted two decades.

Mussolini, Il Duce, took power and consolidated it until the Second Italo-Ethiopian War in the mid-1930s. He was a populist leader in terms of how he spoke to the Italian people, and a dictator in terms of how he exerted his power.

He came from the extreme left but governed from the extreme right. Mussolini invented the new ideology of fascism and was helped in his mission by the business community who wanted an end to left-wing rule.

Despite his brutality, he sought to please the Italian people, promising them a return to the grandeur of Rome. He enjoyed undeniable success for several years, both at home and abroad, until his inevitable downfall.

Trump at Davos: The Nazi Echoes Hidden in Plain Sight Send Shockwaves through Europe.

Jan 23, 2026 | Donald Trump’s speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos was widely dismissed as rambling, unserious, even comedic. But beneath the insults, digressions, and bravado was a coherent—and dangerous—ideological message. This video breaks down how Trump used stealth language to revive ideas rooted in fascist and Nazi-era thinking: the myth of a “pure” western civilisation, the framing of migration as contamination, and the use of “culture” as a euphemism for race. Drawing historical parallels to Nazi rhetoric about civilisation, inheritance, and decline, we examine how these ideas are laundered through respectable forums and normalized on the global stage.

Post-Truth Is Pre-Fascism: Can We Still Save American Democracy?

Dec 11, 2025 | “Post-truth is pre-fascism.” In this conversation, we dig into what that actually means for the United States right now — the state of American democracy, the collapse of local news, tech oligarchs, social media, and even the impossible question: how do you know when it’s time to leave?

We talk about why democracy is not a thing you have but something you do, why facts are a form of protection for the least powerful among us, and how “both-sides” coverage and endless online outrage are quietly doing the work of authoritarians for them.

Lord Heseltine Pressed on Reform "Equivalents to the Fascists in the 30s" Comments

Oct 9, 2025 | Victoria Derbyshire speaks to Tory grandee Lord Heseltine about comments he made at Conservative Party Conference where he described Reform UK "and other parties across Europe today as among the right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s."

A Reform UK spokesperson said: “92-year-old Lord Heseltine is out of touch and deeply offensive to millions of voters.”


A Tory grandee who speaks oodles of common sense. But then he would, wouldn’t he? He’s a Welshman! 😊 This gentleman should have become prime minister. Had it not been for Thatcher, he most probably would have become prime minster. Unfortunately, Thatcher loathed him. And I presume that the feeling was mutual. — © Mark Alexander

A montage of truth, conviction, and class.


The Conservative Party has to look to Wales for common sense! Heseltine is a proud Welshman. — © Mark Alexander
