  • When Medical Staff Go All Nurse Ratched on MAGA Patients

    By Selwyn Duke After he was shot in 1981, “President Reagan said to me, ‘I hope you’re all Republicans,’ and I replied, ‘Today, we’re all Republicans,’” one Dr. Giordano related in 2010. “I’m not a Republican,” added the physician, who treated Reagan, “but I thought for this one day I could be one.” Reagan was…

  • Writer Asks: Why Is Today’s Democratic Party So “Heartless”?

    By Selwyn Duke Not long ago I met a very impressive and unusual 20-year-old man. Having already imbibed great literary works and philosophical material as most of his age-mates do social-media dross, he is what the average 50-year-old philosophy professor would be if he actually, well, understood philosophy (i.e., that it is “a search for…

  • Glenn Beck Warns: Islamist Ideology Is a Clear and Present Danger

    By Selwyn Duke Here’s a good question: What’s the point in sending the military to the Mideast to defend the West while also bringing the Mideast to the West? One man who may nod approvingly at this question is commentator Glenn Beck. After all, in 1999 he predicted blood in Manhattan’s streets within 10 years…

  • Failing Calif. School District Spends $610K for Black Kids to Learn Rap

    By Selwyn Duke The Merced City School District isn’t exactly killing it — unless, that is, what it’s killing are its students’ academic fortunes. Only about 22 percent of its pupils are proficient at math, just 35 percent at reading. Black kids in the majority Hispanic California district are doing considerably worse still, too. So…

  • Ask the Experts — and Get Guided Toward Destruction?

    By Selwyn Duke Vaccinated people “do not carry the virus, [and] don’t get sick” said then-CDC Director Rochelle Walensky in 2021. She also implied that they couldn’t transmit Covid. The CDC had to walk her “expert” claims back mere days later. As we now know, “vaccinated” people could contract and spread the virus. Of course, you could…

  • Britain’s Cultural Kowtowing to Alien Transplants Is Truly Extraordinary

    By Selwyn Duke Tradition is, noted philosopher G.K. Chesterton, “democracy extended through time.” It also is something else: under assault in the West. And Britain, in particular, is going nuclear on its time-honored and -dictated traditions. In fact, it seems every week there’s another story about how the U.K. is trashing its culture. This is,…

  • American Women Are Struggling — With Rampant Sexual Confusion Exhibit A

    Image credit: Grok AI. By Selwyn Duke For years now, article after article has been written about how young men are struggling. They fare worse in school than young women and are less likely to graduate college, we hear. Young men have mental-health issues and are more apt to commit suicide. They are socially isolated…

  • Do the Democrats Have a Vested Interest in Destroying the Family?

    By Selwyn Duke See if you can finish this thought: If tea drinkers are more likely to vote for a given political party, that party will encourage tea drinking. If bicycle riders are more likely to vote for a given party, that party will encourage bicycle riding. If newly naturalized immigrants are more likely to…

  • Former Education Official Fined $750K for Passionately Opposing “Trans” Agenda

    By Selwyn Duke If you think wokeness is dead, one Mr. Barry Neufeld might like a word. After all, the Canadian ex-education official has been ordered to pay $750,000 to sexual devolutionary (“LGBTQ”) teachers in his district. The reason? It’s for “injury to their dignity, feelings and self-respect.”

  • When Left-wing CBS’ Dan Rather Warned of Americans Being “Replaced by Foreigners”

    By Selwyn Duke Dropping the mask, some Western leftists are admitting they want to replace many of their countrymen with ideologically compliant “immigrants.” We just heard this stated unabashedly by a Spanish politician last month. There actually was a time, though, when left-wingers might at least mouth the belief that “replacement” is a bad thing. And the…
