  • 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…

  • Dems and Legacy Media: “I Am Outraged” — Over My Own Latest Lie

    By Selwyn Duke When called out for falsely claiming in 2012 that then-presidential nominee Mitt Romney hadn’t paid taxes in 10 years, the late Senator Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was unrepentant. “Well, they can call it whatever they want,” he self-assuredly said of his lie. “Romney didn’t win, did he?” Many would point out that this…

  • Affordability Crisis? Perspective and Propaganda

    By Selwyn Duke Some politics wonks may remember 2010’s JournoList scandal. It was revealed that hundreds of left-wing journalists, academics, and political activists had been colluding via a private online gathering place and coordinating strategies and talking points. In other words, the “independent” media people certainly weren’t independent of each other; they were operating as…

  • White “Ghetto Girl” Reflects Why MAGA Won’t be Easy

    By Selwyn Duke If politics is downstream from culture, and it is, we have a lot to worry about. This is frankly because American culture has long been rotting like a 10-day-old avocado in the sun. A good example, appearing in my X notifications yesterday, is a video of a white girl sporting corn-woven hair…

  • Manipulation: Media’s Illegal-alien Sob Stories Are Meant to Deceive

    By Selwyn Duke There’s a certain technique often used by journalists, one designed to get you not thinking, but feeling. It involves opening an article with a human-interest story, and it’s figuring prominently right now in the illegal-migration controversy. It may go something like this: Heart Over Head Of course, the idea is to engage…

  • Has Trump Broken the Left’s Propaganda Machine?

    By Selwyn Duke Image created with Grok AI. “There’s no such thing as bad publicity except your own obituary,” quipped Irish writer and activist Brendan Behan. Yet the no-bad-publicity notion certainly isn’t true for politicians, who must win not only fame but elections. Hence an old pattern: Republicans would be condemned by a monolithic mainstream…

  • Minneapolis Shooting: Has Violent Left-wing Rhetoric Claimed More Lives?

    By Selwyn Duke With possibly 99 percent of the political violence originating with the “Left,” some are asking a question. To wit: Is violent left-wing rhetoric responsible for yet another criminal incident, this time the recent Catholic Mass shooting?

  • The (Once) Mainstream Media’s War on Blacks

    By Selwyn Duke During a 2012 radio discussion, black economics professors Walter E. Williams and Thomas Sowell warned that the KKK couldn’t do as much to sabotage blacks as their “friends” could. Of course, the term “friends” was being used very loosely. At issue, in reality, were the wolves in sheep’s clothing who purport to be blacks’…

  • Fake News: USA Today Claims People Are Smoking More. Actually, It’s a Liberal Thing

    By Selwyn Duke With the alphabet networks’ viewership down to 19 percent of the market — they controlled more than 90 percent in the mid-’70s — it’s safe saying the once-mainstream media aren’t exactly smokin’. The same is true of mainstream newspapers, and a recent USA Today article about smoking may illustrate why. The headline, above a…

  • “Racism”: Want to Cancel Hulk Hogan? Fine, Then Muhammad Ali’s Got to Go, Too

    Image created using Grok AI. By Selwyn Duke It wasn’t long after legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan’s passing that we heard the condemnations. Don’t honor him, the nattering ne’er-do-wells insisted—he was a stone cold “racist.” When evaluating this, too, I want you to consider the following quite telling and damning line: “A black man should be…
