FGF Welcome

The Fitzgerald Griffin Foundation and its publishing imprint, FGF Books, seeks to inform and educate leaders and the public on the need to safeguard and defend the basic elements of Western Civilization and its chief foundation, Christianity. We do this, in part, by publishing columns and books of great writers of the "Old Right" (a.k.a. "Alt Right") such as Joseph Sobran, Samuel T. Francis, and other columnists, essayists and authors. Every week, we post new columns at this page from our writers and colleagues. Sign-Up to receive these columns every week (for no charge). See About Us for more information.


Why Socialism is Still Popular
by Jon Basil Utley
September 30
, 2016

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Why is socialism still so popular? A superb conference at Cato recently addressed the issue with new insights and reasoning. Socialism should be discredited in this age of incredible abundance and progress: hunger has declined from 30 percent of the world's population to some 10 percent, yet with billions more mouths to feed.

The Defection of David Brock
by Joe Sobran
September 22
, 2016

Hustler: The Clinton Legacy


[Classic: March 10, 1998] — David Brock has become the first journalist to confess his participation in the vast right-wing conspiracy to get President Clinton. Actually, he confessed it last year, but nobody was listening.

Phyllis Schlafly: An Anti-War Conservative who Supported Goldwater, Reagan, and Trump
by Jon Basil Utley
September 7
, 2016



WASHINGTON, D.C. — Phyllis Schlafly was a giant of the conservative movement. And she opposed America's recent wars. An early fighter, who started up with opposition to the Equal Rights Amendment to the constitution, died at 92 years old.

The Times are Out of Joint
A review of Subtracting Christianity: Essays on American Culture and Society,
a collection of essays by the late Joseph Sobran
by Robert Royal
August 29
, 2016

Subtracting Christianity [Special from The Catholic Thing] — Two quite intelligent women came by independent of one another this week, one an accomplished hospital nurse who specialized in exotic diseases, the other a longtime educational specialist with wide artistic interests. Very different personalities, but eerily alike in expressing, without provocation, their deep distress at "not understanding anything" anymore. Not understanding America or the president, the Church or the pope, the world and its seeming descent into a cultural wasteland and social chaos.

Two Cheers for Theocracy
by Joe Sobran
August 25
, 2016

[SOBRAN’S THE REAL NEWS OF THE MONTH, February 1999] — I grew up in a theocracy. I didn’t realize it as a boy; in fact I never heard it described that way. The only reason I now know it was a theocracy is that people who want to restore the America of the Fifties — anti-abortion Catholics, the “Christian Right” — are accused of wanting to establish a theocracy.

The Wit and Wisdom of a “Most Gloriously Judgmental” Man
A review of Subtracting Christianity: Essays on American Culture and Society,
a collection of essays by the late Joseph Sobran
by Fr. Peter M. J. Stravinskas
August 17
, 2016

Subtracting Christianity
[Special from The Catholic World Report] — In 1980, as a priest not yet thirty years of age, I found myself placed in charge of developing local chapters of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights on the entire eastern seaboard. Those were heady days with Pope John Paul II truly coming into his own and determined to correct course for the Catholic Church and President Ronald Reagan seeking to do the same for the United States and, by extension, for the world.

Clinton's Gut Issue
by Joe Sobran
August 11
, 2016

[Classic: November 18, 1997] — There is no popular demand for war with Iraq or anyone else, and President Clinton knows it. The pressure for war is coming from the usual quarters: those who, for various reasons, want the United States to dominate the Middle East.

Legacy
by Joe Sobran
August 4
, 2016

[Classic: April 8, 1999] — As he ordered the bombing of Kosovo, Bill Clinton assured the nation that he has been “reading up on the history of that area.” That’s a load off! The great war-time presidents have always realized that before you bomb a country, you should read up on it.

The Flying Clintons
by Joe Sobran
July 27
, 2016

Hustler: The Clinton Legacy
[Classic: July 1996] — I keep catching myself hoping that Bill Clinton will be reelected. It isn't just that Bob Dole richly deserves to lose; it's that mere electoral defeat would be an inadequate comeuppance for the Clintons. They are headed for their own Watergate, and it would be a pity to see the drama aborted. I'm only moderately vindictive: I want them hounded out of office, not hounded after they've already left.

The Selfless President
by Joe Sobran
July 21
, 2016

Ever the moral ham, Clinton continues to feign contrition, laying it
on a little thicker with each attempt. Every time he sheds his skin,
he wants us to believe he’s no longer a snake.

[Classic: January 21, 1996] — Bill Clinton is a New Democrat again. Having tarred the Republicans as extremists, he is filching their themes, thereby displaying one of his defining qualities: an utter incapacity for embarrassment.

Diane Speaks His Piece
by Joe Sobran
July 13
, 2016

[Classic: October 19, 2004] — I have no idea who “Diane” is, but his e-mail message sounds angry with me. In fact, Diane says he is “deeply offended” by the “pure bigotry” of my column of September 21, “Equality Run Amok,” which he finds “demeaning.”

You may think Diane is an odd name for a guy, but that’s Diane’s point. He claims to be a woman, “simply a woman,” and identifies himself, in case you haven’t already guessed, as a “transsexual.”

Equality Run Amok
by Joe Sobran
July 6
, 2016

[Classic: September 21, 2004] — In a recent column, I made an observation about the vocal “gay community” that may bear amplification.

On the one hand, these advocates tell us - us presumptive “straights” - that people’s “sexual orientation” should be of no concern to us.

Then they turn around and tell us that their “orientation” is the most important thing in the world to them - the very source of their “identity” and a matter of “pride.”
