  • By Selwyn Duke A motley crew of media and others, from Politifact to the CATO Institute, have claimed that illegal aliens have a lower crime rate than native-born Americans do. In a recent interview, prodigal presidential son Hunter Biden went even further. He claimed that white males are 45 times as likely to commit violent…

  • By Selwyn Duke Should the Ten Commandments be displayed in public schools? With relatively new Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas laws mandating such, this matter may soon come before the Supreme Court. The reportage on this is interesting, too. The “Court may soon consider overturning 45-year precedent,” reads a recent Newsweek headline. Unmentioned is that this now-“45-year precedent”…

  • By Selwyn Duke “So, for the first time in history, Americans have stopped watching NBC, CBS TV, and ABC,” reported commentator Bill O’Reilly Thursday. “Their viewing level has fallen below 20 percent — unheard of.” “And it’s because they’re boring and they’re far left,” O’Reilly elaborated. “That’s the two reasons.” The latest casualty of this legacy-media…

  • By Selwyn Duke It was back in 1880’s Britain that liberal politician Sir William Harcourt infamously said, “We are all socialists now.” (Perhaps this would explain why today’s Britain is poorer than Mississippi — literally.) But here’s a question: Should the Democratic Party make this pronouncement now? And should they add, “And communism can sorta’ fly, too”?…

  • By Selwyn Duke Facing severe manpower shortages in WWII’s waning months, Nazi Germany conscripted adolescent boys, some as young as 12, into military service. This was a sign of desperation, of course, one that ended well for neither kids nor country. And we see another attempt to recruit the young for something they’re ill prepared…

  • Image created using Grok AI. By Selwyn Duke Apart from Sandy Cortez (aka “AOC,” D-N.Y.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), and New York City’s Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) party now claims 200-plus elected officials nationwide. This is why what’s part of the DSA’s platform is notable.

  • By Selwyn Duke When the Māori conquered the Moriori in the South Pacific in the mid-19th century, they proceeded to kill most of the fighting-age men and boys. The process, known as “androcide,” has occurred numerous times in history. The idea: Neuter a society by eliminating masculinity — in this case, by eliminating the masculine…

  • By Selwyn Duke “What embitters the world is not excess of criticism,” noted philosopher G.K. Chesterton, “but an absence of self-criticism.” This could come to mind with a recent Wall Street Journal piece titled “Gen Z, the Useful Idiot Generation.” Oh, it’s not that the authors are wrong about how “leftism” greatly infects this relatively young…

  • By Selwyn Duke “The Democratic Party won’t be in power for a long, long time now,” we hear. The idea is that there has been a “realignment” and/or that the wrong ideology (wokeness) has hobbled the party. Well, we’ve seen this movie and its remakes before. The ending is always the same, too. After Republican President Richard…

  • By Selwyn Duke Imagine, as a thought exercise, that a prominent man said the following, explaining why he was purposely raising kids without a mother. Do you know how f****** great it is to live exactly how I want to live, to experience fatherhood exactly how I wanted to experience it? And I know the next thing they say…
