  • Deadly Marriage? The Dems’ Disastrous Refusal to Divorce the “Trans” Lobby

    By Selwyn Duke When the history of our time is finally written, assuming there’s someone around to write it (AI?), one can imagine how the historians may interpret the Democrats’ obsession with pseudo-sex-switching. “They believed boys could become girls merely by wishing it, and they persecuted those deviating from this orthodoxy.” “It’s why the Democratic…

  • Wokeness as Bold as Trump: Arrested for a Meme, Dead-naming Punishment, Black Bird-watcher Bias

    By Selwyn Duke Legendary president Ronald Reagan authored a “revolution,” seeking to shrink government, lower taxes, reduce regulations, and defeat the Soviet menace. He accomplished much governmentally, too, earning the ire of leftists who dubbed him “Ronald Ray-gun.” Yet in truth, he could do little about our cultural trajectory, and American society was notably more…

  • Tucker Carlson Shocked by Doctor’s Claim About Covid “Vaccine” Deaths

    By Selwyn Duke It was three days after his second Covid shot, in 2021, that Jacob Clynick unexpectedly passed away. He was 13 years old — with no known health problems. Later the same year, 16-year-old Ernesto Ramirez, Jr. died five days after taking just one Pfizer Covid shot. The story was the same with both boys: Their…

  • Free-speech Support Declining in U.S. — With the Young Leading the Way

    By Selwyn Duke Here’s an interesting test if you have any young people in your life. Ask them to finish the following rhyme: “Sticks and stones may….” A second question you can pose to the whippersnapper is: Is “hate speech” protected by the First Amendment? (And just hope they know what the First Amendment is.)…

  • 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…

  • 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…
