  • By Selwyn Duke “I think there is a lot of voter fraud.” So said then-NYC election commissioner, Democrat Alan Schulkin, on hidden video in 2016. Much has changed in the Empire State since that time, however: Going high tech, it’s now being reported that a vote-fraud-enabling algorithm has been added to NY’s voter registration roll. There’s news…

  • By Selwyn Duke It was just six years ago that then-German chancellor Angela Merkel, a main author of 2015’s Third World migration wave into Europe, admitted that “no-go zones” do exist on her continent. It was just last year, at age 100, that late intellectual Henry Kissinger confessed that allowing such immigration into Germany was “a grave mistake.”…

  • By Selwyn Duke “A government big enough to give you everything you want,” goes a paraphrase of an apocryphal saying, “is big enough to take everything you’ve got.” This includes too many free minutes. As to this, we’ve all probably had the kind of experience commentator Kevin R. Kosar describes in an article recently featured on MSN.com.…

  • By Selwyn Duke Five years ago already, in 2019, Joe Biden appeared to forget Barack Obama’s name during a campaign town hall meeting. That would be the Barack Obama whom Biden worked under for eight years, the Obama he once famously said was the “first sort of mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and…

  • By Selwyn Duke That senior citizens support Republicans while young Americans vote for Democrats by wide margins is one of those old truisms in politics. Or is it? Shockingly to many, polls show that Joe Biden is bleeding support among Gen Z (those born after 1996). What’s more, they also find that he’s doing better…

  • By Selwyn Duke “Clarence Thomas has a bump-stock death wish for Americans,” reads a Raw Story title. “Clarence Thomas’ signature will be on death certificates,” goes an overwrought quotation from an MSNBC Reidout segment. “The Supreme Court’s Bump Stock Decision Will Prove Fatal,” The New York Times chimes in. This seems like an awfully frenzied response over a device that’s hardly…

  • By Selwyn Duke It’s that old chasm between the pseudo-elite and the street. More than three-quarters of Americans believe that crime has gotten worse in recent times, according to a November 2023 Gallup poll. In contrast, mainstream media and other pseudo-elites tell us that crime is down, citing FBI statistics to make their case. But here’s…

  • By Selwyn Duke Would you rather have some jobs available at $12 an hour or no jobs available at $20 an hour? The answer may vary depending on whether you’re a business owner or job seeker — or politician or bureaucrat. Regardless, the opening question, which is of the kind late economist Walter E. Williams…

  • By Selwyn Duke As a child of the ’70s and ’80s, I, along with my age mates, remember Cold War nuclear annihilation fears well. Oh, I was born after “duck and cover” days, but we did, for example, have the post-apocalyptic 1983 film The Day After, which portrayed a nuclear war’s consequences. Watched by 100…

  • By Selwyn Duke “The fundamental basis of this Nation’s law was given to Moses on the Mount,” said a famed American figure. “The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings which we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, from Isaiah and St. Paul.” Which evangelist said the above? Billy Graham? Pat…
