TURKEY OUT OF NATO PROJECT 2028

About the Initiative

Project 2028

Purpose

The Turkey out of NATO initiative, Project 2028, is a strategic policy review platform dedicated to compiling, documenting, and presenting evidence-based analysis regarding the trajectory of Turkey’s membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

This platform is not a campaign. It is not a media outlet. It is not an activist initiative. It is a structured repository of policy-relevant materials designed to support institutional review processes.

Scope

The initiative examines Turkey’s conduct within the NATO framework across four interconnected dimensions:

Strategic Case: The foundational argument for reassessing membership, including NATO asymmetry and alliance integrity

Structural Breach: Documentary evidence of treaty violations and procedural obstruction

Security & Values: Assessment of alignment with NATO’s foundational principles

Geopolitical Alignment: Analysis of Turkey’s deepening ties with NATO adversaries

Why Female Violence Gets a Free Pass

On June 3, 1968, Valerie Solanas walked into Andy Warhol's studio and shot him. Decades later, she has become a feminist icon, her SCUM Manifesto is taught in universities, and Hollywood celebrated her life in a major film that is now returning to theaters in a new restoration. How did an attempted murderer become a cultural hero?

In this episode I'm joined by Janice Fiamengo, Tom Golden, and Jim Nuzzo to explore one of the most striking double standards in modern culture: why female violence is so often explained, romanticized, and even celebrated, while male violence is treated as evidence of innate evil.
