  • Attacking Trump Voters, View Host Mistakes “Schooling” for Education

    By Selwyn Duke “Never let your schooling interfere with your education,” goes the apocryphal saying. (No, it’s not from Mark Twain, though the schooled are more likely than the educated to think so.) It is a truth, too, an important one to grasp — especially for pseudo-elites who demean the unschooled as “uneducated.” Enter ABC network’s Sunny…

  • The Most Important Votes Are Yet to Be Cast

    The choices we make in our daily lives shape our culture and the type of country we have. After all, politics is downstream from culture. By Selwyn Duke With President Donald Trump’s historic and resounding election victory, many are relieved. His supporters may feel, “Mission accomplished!” while his opponents (those not throwing tantrums) might’ve resigned…

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    I wish you a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving.  "I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder." — G.K. Chesterton God bless, Selwyn Duke

  • The Tapper-CNN/Maddow Lawsuits and the Dying Mainstream Media

    By Selwyn Duke The mainstream media may, collectively, be the most dangerous single worldly enemy our country faces. After all, it once was virtually all Americans’ only conduit of information and still serves that function for many. It’s as with a computer, too: garbage in, garbage out. And this lamentation is, essentially, what commentator Mike…

  • Let’s Say Man IS Changing the Climate. So What?

    By Selwyn Duke “The temperature is rising!” “The temperature is dropping.” The temperature is staying the same.” We argue the “facts” of climate change (even as parts of New Jersey were just buried under 11 inches of global warming). One side wants the facts to show that man is disrupting the climate, while the other…

  • Jaguar Jumps Off Clown-car Cliff While Bud Light Does About-face and “Mocks” Wokeness

    By Selwyn Duke It’s a tale of two companies. One went woke, began to go broke, and now embraces the macho bloke. The other, slow on the uptake, just stepped on the woke rake and now has a real headache. The latter is British auto manufacturer Jaguar, whose most recent commercial looks like the bar…

  • AMERICAN Kids Train to Be Like PLA Soldiers and Police Officers at Hitler Youth-style Chinese Camps

    By Selwyn Duke It’s a shocking story. Thousands of American kids have, over time, been attending camps in China run by a Beijing intelligence and influence agency. Once there, the youths are indoctrinated with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda. Some are even given military training and may be taught to act like “Little Overseas Chinese…

  • Anti-Trump Artifice: Does the Woke Pentagon Have Sedition on Its Mind?

    By Selwyn Duke It’s not quite like the 1964 movie Seven Days in May, which concerns a military plot to overthrow a U.S. president. Nonetheless, there does appear to be an anti-Trump cabal in the Pentagon with seditious leanings. What’s more, this information doesn’t come via social media rumor or some random source, but from left-wing…

  • Britain, Land of Magna Carta, Is Slowly Becoming a Soviet State

    By Selwyn Duke “But there’s no England now” is a famous lyric composed by songwriter and Kinks band member Dave Davies. One could wonder if he was aware of a certain irony, or if the given connection is actually by design. That is, the song containing the lyric was released in “1984,” which also is…

  • Downright Fruity: Swedish Official Demands Banana-free Rooms Due to Phobia

    By Selwyn Duke “Yes, We Have No Bananas” is the name of a famous old song. It’s also apparently what Sweden’s “gender equality minister,” Paulina Brandberg, wants to hear. What’s that? Well, here’s the story: The official actually demands that her staff clear rooms of all bananas before her arrival — owing, reportedly, to a phobia. I…
