Based Underground is now a conservative news aggregator AND curated newsletter.
I am dedicating this article to my lefty friends and loved ones. Yes, I still have some of those. I made a pledge to myself years ago that I wouldn’t let politics destroy my relationships with good people with whom I have wonderful personal histories.
This pledge is getting harder and harder to keep. Thursday’s debate has put it under the greatest stress test yet, and I’m not sure I can keep it much longer.
My lefty friends and I have been getting along for the past eight years by agreeing not to talk about politics. This was necessitated in 2016 when Donald Trump won, and so many people — especially women — straight up lost their minds. I actually saw marriages fail because the husband wasn’t capable of hating Trump as rabidly as the wife needed him to. Think of that: a perfectly good, long-term marriage — thrown away because of politics.
I’ve still held onto my friendships with Democrats (the ones who stayed married or seemed otherwise sane and decent). Even if there is now an unspoken degree of discomfort with one another, we have so much history together that we press on. But I see their devotion to the party is just as fanatical as ever when I stumble across their social media or they can’t help themselves and blurt out some idiotic talking point. And while I still refuse to allow politics to wreck good relationships, the byproduct of my friends’ adamant adhesion to their party is that I am losing respect for them.
Here’s the List:
- Joe Biden is OK.
- The Hunter Biden Laptop from Hell was a Russian disinformation operation.
- Donald Trump colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election.
- Donald Trump called Nazis “very fine people.”
- Donald Trump told people to inject themselves with bleach to ward off COVID.
We discussed all of these on today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show. […]

Trump’s Wild Bunch Is Ready for Action
by Frank Miele
If for no other reason than that it will elicit fear in the hearts of autocracy-phobics, I propose that Donald Trump’s second-term Cabinet be known as “The Wild Bunch.” The name is best known as the title of Sam Peckinpah’s classic 1969 western featuring a colorful cast of aging outlaws…

Lindsey Graham Is the Warmongering NeoCon Leading the Charge to Upend Pete Hegseth
by JD Rucker
Pete Hegseth represents a shift away from the wokeness that has infected the United States military.

Unfortunately, you’re talking to people who have literally no common sense. They can’t think for themselves at all. They literally deny reality and try to deny it to others. They are all CULTISTS and somehow they need to be de-programmed and I don’t know how this can be done. First of all – Donald Trump is just a very successful business man who has been in the public eye for at least 40 years – there is nothing sinister about him, he’s been a good guy who has hired women & minorities, he just literally is not the man they portray him to be AT ALL. He never was. If he committed any crimes, they would have charged him with real crimes, not the fake ones they have. He doesn’t lie, Joe Biden lies ALL THE TIME – reflexively. The real problem here at the heart of it is the unholy alliance between Intel & kept Politicians who are only interested in enriching themselves & developing a hereditary aristocracy – feudalism, in fact. They want to bring back FEUDALISM. They HATE democracy, they hate the little people, they hate anyone who is not a criminal like they are. These people are ALL CRIMINALS – ALL CROOKS. Their goal is not to RUN anything – they wouldn’t know how to anyway, but to STEAL as much as possible, cover it up, and then figure out who to blame if they’re caught. They hate Trump because he is NOT like them, he’s an outsider, he is not a criminal and they distrust and instinctively hate non-criminals. Mark Twain had it right 150 years ago when he said the only native criminal class in the USA is CONGRESS. Well….it’s not just Congress, it’s much of our political class, esp the Dems, but RINOS too, all across the country. The biggest criminals in the country are not the illegals, not the poor folk, not people of color….THEY ARE POLITICIANS AND THEIR INTEL ALLIES. Somehow people have to learn to recognize that, and that Trump and MAGA in general, are not the problem, but a response to the problem. Something needs to be done.
Can’t win without cheating… AGAIN.
