“Trump the Deep State and AdVance Toward Freedom!”

October 25, 2024

By Selwyn Duke “The pen is mightier than the sword,” Sir Edward Bulwer-Lytton wrote in 1839. And this power of words is well exemplified by the rallying cry known as the campaign slogan. In fact, “A recent study shows that campaign slogans have a direct effect on voting,” wrote website PoliticalMarketer.com in 2020. “When voters…
X Marks the Plot: “Defenders of Democracy” Trying to Destroy the One True Social-media Democracy

October 24, 2024

(Image credit: Beatchoose/Wikimedia Commons) By Selwyn Duke We hear continual warnings from the Establishment and the Left (and the overlap there is profound) about “attacks on democracy.” Donald Trump, of course, is supposed to be a “threat to democracy.” Yet it all appears like projection. Why? Because the self-proclaimed “defenders of democracy” are now aiming…
Pennsylvania Voters Leaving the Democratic Party in RECORD Numbers

October 22, 2024

By Selwyn Duke “I didn’t leave the Democratic Party,” late President Ronald Reagan famously said, “the Democratic Party left me.” While Reagan’s departure was in 1962, more and more Americans today could echo his sentiments. For example, the #WalkAway (from the Democrats) campaign was founded by disaffected liberal Brandon Straka in 2018. Six years later,…
Charity Disparity: The Virtue That Can Only Be Practiced Privately

October 22, 2024

By Selwyn Duke “We make a living by what we get,” said Winston Churchill, “but we make a life by what we give.” Well more than 2,000 years before, ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu also sang charity’s praises. “The wise man does not lay up his own treasures,” he averred. “The more he gives to…
NY Times: U of Michigan Blew a Quarter BILLION on DEI — and HURT Students and Staff

October 19, 2024

By Selwyn Duke When even The New York Times complains about your leftism, you know that you not only jumped the shark with wokism, but that the shark you jumped is a megalodon. This is the case, too, with a new report on how the University of Michigan squandered megabucks on DEI indoctrination. The result of these…
Official Put on Leave After Purple-haired Subordinate Complained He Was Hiring Based on Merit, Not Identity

October 18, 2024

By Selwyn Duke The Oregon Department of Forestry’s second-in-command has been put on administrative leave for committing what is now, apparently, considered misfeasance. His sin? The official, one Mike Shaw, resolved to hire at his bureau the “candidates most qualified for the job.” That’s what Megan Donecker — a purple-haired, tattooed DEI trainer who filed…
Vermont School Bans Saying Pledge of Allegiance, Parents Say

October 16, 2024

By Selwyn Duke There was a time, not long ago, when reciting the Pledge of Allegiance was standard in schools — and uncontroversial. Then it became an issue — and optional. Now it’s not even an option at one Vermont school, say local parents.
Battle of the Sexes? Election Might Be “Boys vs. Girls”

October 15, 2024

By Selwyn Duke If men are from Mars and women from Venus, as author John Gray put it, then something is for sure. Mars is MAGA territory. And Venus is Kamala Land. In fact, as polls consistently demonstrate, the intersex voting gap is perhaps now historically large. For example, the latest NBC poll finds that men favor…
Is the Myth of Plastic Recycling Finally Being Exposed?

October 14, 2024

By Selwyn Duke It was to be a routine voyage. It would become historic. On March 22, 1987, the barge Mobro 4000, loaded with six million pounds of garbage and towed by tugboat Break of Dawn, departed Islip, New York. It was bound for Morehead City, North Carolina — but never did dock there. Instead, it spent…
“Green Energy Transition” Is a Costly “Myth,” Says Expert, and “Isn’t Happening”

October 13, 2024

By Selwyn Duke “The definition of insanity,” the apocryphal saying goes, “is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.” This could come to mind now that yet another warning has been issued about “green” energy. A transition to it simply “isn’t happening,” says researcher Bjørn Lomborg, of the Copenhagen…
