  • Bill Maher “Goes Civil” on President Trump During White House Visit

    Image created using AI. By Selwyn Duke There’s a simple rule of life: If people cannot talk things out, they’re left to fight them out. One man who apparently understands this is Democratic comedian-cum-commentator Bill Maher. After all, bucking criticism from fellow liberals (leftists), Maher recently agreed to accept an invitation to visit the White…

  • The Case for Race and Sex Discrimination

    By Selwyn Duke A few decades ago a woman I knew well, of Japanese descent, told me a story about a time she walked into a Korean restaurant. “We don’t want your kind in here,” someone staffing the eatery bluntly told her. Old prejudices die hard, and the woman promptly left. She could’ve filed a…

  • Constitutionally Granted Birthright Citizenship for Illegals? SCOTUS Says No

    By Selwyn Duke Imagine the following scenario: A pregnant woman goes into labor while passing your property and, in distress, stumbles onto your lawn. You take notice, offer aid, and EMT arrives and, with time short, she gives birth on the scene. Mother and baby turn out safe and healthy, though, and all’s well that…

  • Christian Revival: Is (Once?) Woke Silicon Valley Coming to Jesus?

    By Selwyn Duke When it was alleged in 2023 that the message “Jesus died so you could live” was labeled “hate speech” by Facebook, it perhaps was not surprising. Two years later, however, something else surely is. Christian code has entered Silicon Valley, we hear, and may be supplanting its notoriously secular programming. Apparently, man does…

  • Does Teaching Bible in Schools Make Kids More Moral and Mentally Healthy?

    By Selwyn Duke While talking about “raising and training children” and “implanting” the proper “moral code,” a prominent politician had an interesting prescription. “The fundamental basis of this Nation’s law was given to Moses on the Mount,” he said. “The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings which we get from…

  • Looking for Unicorns: The Search for a “Joe Rogan of the Left”

    By Selwyn Duke My, the worm truly has turned — at least halfway. It wasn’t that long ago, really, that conservatives lamented how “mainstream” media “controlled the narrative.” Back in 2011, in fact, Professor Tim Groseclose estimated that “media bias aids Democratic candidates by about 8 to 10 percentage points in a typical election.” Now,…

  • Is the Blue-state Model on the USSR’s Path — and Poised to Collapse?

    By Selwyn Duke “If something can’t go on, it won’t,” goes the paraphrase of economist Herb Stein. Speaking of which, we often hear about America’s below-replacement-level birth rate. What we don’t hear much about, however, is which Americans aren’t reproducing. And if you guessed that the biggest offenders are our land’s liberals, go to the head of…

  • The West Is Slowly Being Islamized. Does This Matter?

    By Selwyn Duke Paterson, New Jersey, has quite a history. Founded as a planned industrial city in 1792, it was named after William Paterson, a signatory to the Constitution and a Garden State governor. Like so many American municipalities, it had a Main Street, too. Had, that is, because it’s now “Palestine Way” — thus…

  • Is Secession Nigh? Many Young Voters, Blacks, and Hispanics Believe National Breakup Likely

    By Selwyn Duke In the early 1900s, philosopher G.K. Chesterton said he longed for one aspect of a time few pine after. In the Middle Ages, he wrote, people agreed on the things that “really mattered” (in Europe, anyway). Just two or three decades ago, psychologist John Rosemond contrasted his time with Chesterton’s and said…

  • Not Just Fauci: The Scientific Establishment Peddles Lies Continually

    By Selwyn Duke It was just revealed that the Biden administration intentionally buried an “inconvenient” study in order to justify an energy crackdown. Of course, we’re seldom shocked to hear that politics is, well, political. But what about when study authors themselves bury, or otherwise obscure, inconvenient data? This not only happens, says a Ph.D.…
