This chapter draws attention to David Duke as one of the celebrity headliners of the Charlottesville Unite the Right rally. It details how Duke presaged and inspired the alt-right and describes his influence on the modern history of nationalist and supremacist movements in America. It also notes Duke's influence on alt-right leaders and Donald Trump during the presidential election of the United States. The chapter analyzes how a perennial political election loser can turn losses into ideological and cultural gains. It discusses how all bad news is really good news in the eyes of a guerrilla information warfare insurrectionist in order to understand the influence of David Duke.

I just reviewed the April 1991 issue of Pediatric Research which contains the APS-SPR abstracts. You can't help but notice that neonatology is the most active area of clinical research. Of the 2257 manuscripts submitted, at least 1119 can be classified as neonatal. There are now more than 2500 board-certified neonatologists in the United States. We certainly get high marks for producing abstracts. That's the good news. The bad news, I think, is how trivial, repetitive, and fruitless some of these studies seem to be. I stopped counting when I reached 20 abstracts which ended with the phrase "but of course this study needs to be repeated on a larger number of patients in a prospective randomized controlled trial."

This study aims to analyze the effect of prices and income of the United States of America on 5 superior commodities in Indonesia and see between good news and bad news. The research data uses quarterly data from 2005Q1-2017Q4. The research model uses the TGARCH model. The results show that the income per capita of the United States, the previous price per commodity and previous exports have a positive and significant influence on commodity exports. However, the effect of per capita income on superior rubber commodities was found to have a negative and significant effect. This indicates an increase in foreign income will reduce rubber exports. Extreme volatility shocks occur in palm oil and other agriculture. High volatility is only cocoa commodity. Meanwhile, for coffee and rubber, the volatility is low. 3 commodities that have symmetrical information are coffee, cocoa, and other agriculture. Asymmetric information on palm oil and rubber commodities.

Building own business is a long-term and laborious process. A person who leads a startup tries to start with building own business by taking first steps toward financial independence. Analyzing conditions in Poland, on average every second startup sells its services abroad, admittedly it is good news, although half of them do not export at all. Half of the startups which export their services and goods generates more than 50% of their revenues outside Poland. Very interesting is the fact that 60% of exporters have conducted their foreign sale since the moment of establishing their business. On which markets do they sell their services? It turns out that the most popular are markets in the European Union (54%), including the United Kingdom 14% and Germany 9%. Only about 25% of Polish startups exports their products and services to the United States. Taking the United States into consideration, in 2008 the USA lost their leading position in the number of startups which are newly created and achieving success in business. Currently in terms of the number of new startups the USA is on a quite distant place after Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Hungary, New Zealand, Israel or Italy. In short, more companies were closed than created, so it was, as a matter of fact, like in Poland. Therefore, the condition to improve the development of startups both from Poland and other countries all the world is to increase cooperation and coopetition.
