Donald J. Trump Sworn In as 47th President of the United States

Washington, D.C. – In an unparalleled political comeback, Donald J. Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States on January 20, 2025, inside the U.S. Capitol Rotunda. This historic second term comes after Trump overcame many baseless and politically motivated charges. These attempts by the radical and corrupt establishment trying hinder his return, ultimately did not sway public opinion in key states, leading to his victory in the 2024 election.

The road back was also punctuated by physical threats, with Trump surviving two assassination attempts that only served to galvanize his base, depicting him as a martyr in the fight against political persecution. His unwavering spirit was on full display in Pennsylvania, where a bullet grazed his ear, and again in Florida, where another plot was thwarted.

In his inaugural address, Trump declared, “From this moment on, America’s decline is over,” emphasizing his mandate to undo the “horrible betrayals” of the past administration and restore America’s greatness. He vowed to secure the borders, protect American jobs, and return the country to a path of prosperity and freedom.

The ceremony, attended by American business titans like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, symbolized a new era of collaboration between the White House and industry leaders, promising economic revitalization under Trump’s leadership.

As Trump begins his second term, this can be seen not only as a victory for him but as a vindication against the “witch hunt” that was orchestrated by his political adversaries. With a new mandate, Trump aims to steer the nation towards what he has promised will be a “golden age,” focusing on national sovereignty, law and order, and economic recovery, all while navigating a politically divided landscape.

Such fighting spirit from a presidential candidate under heavy pressure can be seen from the perspective of a Finnish person, knowing Finland’s history, as not only admirable but necessary; there is yet hope for the preservation of the ideals upon which the great nation of the United States of America was created.

There’s No Common Cultural Legacy For The Alt-Right

Still, is there something to it? Is there a common heritage that will cover El Greco and Hume and Dostoyevsky? Is there one that can include the Jacobites and the Jacobins? There is, but it is not racial, and white supremacists reject it because it rejects them. The unifying heritage of Europe is religious and philosophical. It is Jerusalem and Athens, in one famous formulation. Christian religion and Greek philosophy, filtered through Roman law and culture, are the foundation of European culture. The tensions, agreements, developments and settlements between these have shaped the Western world, and these roots of Western civilization are not congenial to white supremacy.

Christianity is universal in its message and Jewish in its origins. For centuries after its founding, Christianity’s center was the Mediterranean world, including Asia Minor and North Africa. Christianity has never been defined by race, and locally-grown racist heresies are only sustainable among those ignorant of Christianity’s teachings, origins and history.

Greek philosophy is likewise ill-suited to serve as a basis for white identity. It is either too universal (addressing the human condition in general) or too local—none of us live as citizens of an ancient Greek polis. Later philosophical developments in Europe, such as the philosophies of the Enlightenment, likewise tend to be too universal for white supremacists seeking a tribal identity. As for the scientific revolution that developed within Western culture (albeit with much borrowed from outside Europe), math doesn’t care what color someone is.

War is being waged against Western culture from within which is in essence a war against Christianity and its moral origins in the Hebrew Bible. By attacking these Biblical foundations in the name of reason and human rights, the culture warriors of secularism are sawing off the branch on which they sit. The only way to defend Western civilisation is to reaffirm and restore its Biblical foundations. My argument is a development of ideas I first explored in my 2012 book The World Turned Upside Down: The Global Battle over God, Truth and Power.

We are living in an era which extols reason, science and human rights. These are said to be essential for progress, a civilised society and the betterment of humanity. Religion is said to be their antithesis, the source instead of superstitious mumbo-jumbo, oppression and backward-thinking.

Some of this hostility is being driven by the perceived threat from Islamic terrorism and the Islamisation of Western culture. However, this animus against religion has far deeper roots and can be traced back to what is considered the birthplace of Western reason, the 18th-century Enlightenment.

Actually, it goes back specifically to the French Enlightenment. In England and Scotland, the Enlightenment developed reason and political liberty within the framework of Biblical belief. In France, by contrast, anti-clericalism morphed into fundamental hostility to Christianity and to religion itself.

“Ecrasez l’infame,” said Voltaire (crush infamy) — the infamy to which he referred being not just the Church but Christianity, which he wanted to replace with the religion of reason, virtue and liberty, “drawn from the bosom of nature”.

Perfecting society

But this Enlightenment did not remove religion so much as pervert it. It took millenarian fantasies, the idea that the perfection of the world was at hand, and it secularised them. Instead of God producing heaven on earth, it would be mankind which would bring that about. Reason would create the perfect society and “progress” was the process by which utopia would be attained.

“I think that we should correct the vocabulary that we use, and call a spade a spade. It is all about Jihad, the Islamic effort to spread Islam globally”:

Terrorist attack – should be called Military Jihad.

Incitement – Media Jihad.

Al-Jazeera – Media Jihad Channel.

Imposing Sharia law – Judicial Jihad or Legislative Jihad.

Boycotting Israel (BDS) – Economic Jihad.

Emigration to EU and US – Emigration Jihad / Hijra Jihad.

Building mosques, Islamic education institutions – Cultural Jihad.

Halal food – Dietary Jihad.

Hijab or Niqab – Clothing Jihad.

Activity of MSA – Academic Jihad.

Activity of CAIR – Political Jihad / Public Jihad.

Collecting money for Islamic “charities” – Financial Jihad.

Political correctness – Submission to Jihad.

J Street, Peace Now, JVP and their likes – Jewish Useful Idiots who Serve Jihad.

Iran deal – Western Support for Nuclear Jihad.
