  • By Selwyn Duke “We’ve got a lot of constitutionalists and a lot of people that stockpile weapons.” Those were the words of a Spokane, Washington, sheriff’s deputy (shown) explaining why his department needed military-grade equipment. In a video (shown below) obtained by Infowars.com, the deputy was answering a question from a citizen who wondered why…

  • By Selwyn Duke Pudgy and profligate little Kim Jong-un must be swelling with pride. With the FBI now concluding that North Korea was responsible for the recent computer hacking of Sony Corporation, it appears that Kim has succeeded in projecting power beyond his borders in, essentially, censoring a Western film. That work, of course, is…

  • By Selwyn Duke “What do we want? Dead cops! When do we want it? Now!” That was the chant of protesters in New York City just over a week ago. Sadly, they have now gotten their wish: Two NYC police officers were shot dead Saturday — execution style — in what the killer described as an…

The vehicle through which this is done is Operation Choke Point; this is an Obama administration effort…

  • By Selwyn Duke There was a recent scandal that, as much as anything else, illustrates the intellectual emptiness and moral ennui of the modern liberal man. It occurred in Britain but reflects a wider phenomenon; what can be said about it can be said about happenings in Sweden, France, Holland, Canada or Belgium — or…

  • By Selwyn Duke “If you early voted, go vote again tomorrow. One more time’s not going to hurt.” So said Opelousas, Louisiana, mayor Don Cravins, Sr. (shown) in a video now making the rounds. In the footage, shot November 3 at a private event, the Democrat politician can also be heard reassuring the audience he…

  • By Selwyn Duke The murder bore some earmarks of a hit. The young man was found behind the wheel of his white Pontiac Grand Prix, shot to death through the driver’s side window. There also was possibly something unique about him: That he might have witnessed the Michael Brown shooting. The young man was 20-year-old…
