James Fulford writes: Allan Wall, who has been writing for us for many years, published this on Dan Lyman’s Border Hawk blog.

The VDARE.com website, founded by Peter Brimelow, has been on the internet since 1999.

VDARE deals with immigration (legal and illegal), national identity, ethnic identity politics, race and crime, and related topics; especially aspects of these matters that are excluded by the Mainstream Media.

That’s why VDARE is under attack and is currently in imminent danger of being abolished.

If you’re unfamiliar with it, I recommend you visit VDARE.com.

It’s a very well-documented website. Articles on VDARE.com are not just long rants. They are well-written pieces replete with hyperlinks so readers can investigate the sources themselves.

VDARE has a host of writers from various backgrounds and perspectives. They don’t always agree on everything, but they do agree that today’s mass immigration is bad for America. And that was true before the Biden Border Rush.

In the interest of full disclosure, I’ve been writing for VDARE since 2001. You can see my article file here.

However, I’d like to think I’d be defending the website even if I had nothing to do with it, just on general principles.

VDARE has been under attack in “the land of the free and the home of the brave” for years. It’s been condemned and misrepresented. Its payment processing has been shut down repeatedly. It’s been banned from YouTube and Facebook.

Sadly, VDARE has been very shabbily treated by the conservative movement itself.

The Free Republic website, for example, calls itself “…one of the earliest and largest online gathering places for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web.”

Many news articles and opinion pieces are posted on Free Republic and discussed by readers.

But don’t try to post a VDARE article. That’s prohibited on “Free" Republic. You can post a far-left article but not one by VDARE.

Too many other conservative figures and organizations have cooperated with the Left in excluding the website.

VDARE is currently being destroyed by Letitia James, the attorney general of New York.

AG James is the same person who brought the bogus but successful property valuation lawsuit against former President Donald J. Trump—a lawsuit with no victim or plaintiff. It was all about getting Trump.

In this case, it’s all about getting VDARE.

Not that VDARE has been charged with any crime. Oh no. The organization has been bled to death by a long series of legal orders, which is wearing it down and pushing it towards bankruptcy.

It’s called "lawfare"—the new American way to destroy political opponents.

Recently, the organization has been ordered to turn over its emails. Besides being very expensive, this action would reveal the names of its pseudonymous writers, which VDARE staunchly refuses to do.

Who has defended VDARE?

A few have, to their credit. But I haven’t heard one “freedom-loving” conservative in our Congress who has stood up for them.

Yet here’s a curious fact—at VDARE’s darkest and possibly fatal hour, its influence has grown amazingly.

Many of the issues VDARE has been discussing over the years are finally making it into the mainstream discourse.

Tucker Carlson recently acknowledged VDARE and its predicament, interviewing Lydia Brimelow, Peter’s wife, on his show.

Previously, Tucker would not speak of VDARE on his show, although guest Mark Steyn once mentioned and defended the website.

However, I knew that at least one person in Carlson’s camp was reading VDARE, because from time to time Tucker would allude to something that had come from the website.

But now Tucker has publicly defended VDARE by sharing its predicament with viewers.

Matt Walsh has also defended VDARE.

(12:15 mark)

Border Hawk of course supports VDARE.

See this recent conversation between Border Hawk editor-in-chief Dan Lyman and Peter Brimelow:

Anybody who is truly concerned about the immigration issue and freedom of speech in America should defend VDARE.

So tell your friends what is being done to them.

Ask your “freedom-loving” senators and representative where they stand on this legal outrage.

Pray for Peter and Lydia Brimelow, for VDARE, and for the cause of justice in today’s United States of America.
