Tucker Carlson, Andrew Tate, Nick Fuentes, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Candace Owens – American Family Radio’s Jenna Ellis says that they are the face of the new right. She defines them as an emergent, populist faction on the American right that rejects traditional conservatism, its moral foundation, and the God-ordained institutions of church, family, and limited government that once anchored the movement. (Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes featured bottom right).
For example, Ellis recently publishes an article on AFN regarding the new right not endorsing support of Israel. The New Right is doing this by warping the definition of “America First” to mean “America Only.”
Jenna writes, “They are chasing a younger online generation of conservatives who are deeply skeptical of foreign entanglements, domestic institutions, and unmoved by the moral frameworks of the Old Right.”
Ellis speaks on how the new right, in general, is driven by social media and how it is having a profound effect on the church.
“This next generation grew up in the era of the celebrity pastor, the woke church, a lack of grounding in eternal principles, and more with this idea that the church has to be relevant to the culture,” informs Ellis.
One of the main targets of the new right’s movers and influencers is young men.
“They are all working, actually, alongside the woke churches to push young men further and further away from God's design and participation in God-ordained institutions because of the skepticism of man-made institutions,” states Ellis.
Ellis says that it has a lot in common with what is happening to the left — think of the traditional left-middle-right spectrum line as a bell-curve.
“Conserving truth and biblical God-ordained institutions is at the top of that. You can then fall off and get to a false worldview on either the left or the right, and the further you go toward the extremes of either end of that bell curve, then the further you get from conserving truth,” says Ellis.
