Identity Politics (Ep. 21): Did We Lose A War? (w/ Kai Schwemmer)

In this episode of Identity Politics, Kevin DeAnna asks whether America has already lost a war - not on the battlefield, but in its own cities where identity, culture, and sovereignty are being eroded. The latest controversy in Dearborn, Michigan exposes how immigration, demographic change, and racial politics are transforming once-iconic American communities into occupied territory. He draws connections between 9/11, Islam’s rise in American life, and the failure of conservatives to act with unity or willpower, contrasting it with the left’s ruthless identity politics.

Kevin is joined by political commentator Kai Schwemmer to discuss the right’s transition from outsider movement to institutional power - and the pitfalls that come with it. They explore why conservative victories too often stop at culture wars and symbolic wins instead of lasting policy change. Schwemmer argues for developing a new generation of skilled politicians, staffers, and organizers who can wield power effectively and address structural issues like immigration, crime, and the economy. The conversation also covers the influence of big donors, the role of faith in building resilience, and how generational divides are shaping the future of the movement.

Finally, Kevin exposes Antifa's true purpose and goals - and gives his take on what we can expect from Trump's announcement to designate them a hate group and investigate those that financially support them.
