Tucker started the institute after helping to organize the so-called #GreatBarringtonDeclaration, a widely-rebuked but official-sounding open letter from October 2020”

You may be surprised to learn that there is a whole network of 'respectable' publishers and think-tanks that produce right-wing content even more paranoid and delusional than Fox News. A big one is the Epoch Times - a Hong Kong publisher that has become increasingly focused on the USA along with massive promotion -- both online and by sending sample editions through the post office.
Another is the Claremont Institute, that often passes as a conventional country club conservative publication, but uses it's massive endowment to enthusiastically promote the idea that Democrats plan to burn America and citizenship must be revoked from their political opponents based on far-fetched legal theories.

So if you see a new seemingly respectable think-tank, and notice that it's founder is proud of his work with the Epoch Times, then you know what to expect. (BTW - the Brownstone Inst evolved from the Great Barrington Declaration).

I don't know if people know about the Daytonian in Manhattan blog, but it's an incredible resource for the history of #NYC #architecture, particularly residential architecture. It's quaintly still hosted on #blogspot, meticulously researched, and entertainingly written by Tom Miller. Here's an excerpt from the latest post about a #hellskitchen #brownstone. The whole sordid story is well worth reading.
