  • Benedict Obama’s Invasion of America

    By Selwyn Duke If millions of soldiers from south of the border were flooding our nation for the purposes of colonizing our land, we would easily recognize the threat.

    By Selwyn Duke Women who have abortions usually want to put the experience behind them, tucking the memory away in the recesses of their minds. But not Emily Letts.

  • How Demagogues Con People

    By Selwyn Duke How do you know you’re being had by a slick politician?

  • Hate Speech: U.K. Political Leader Arrested for Quoting Winston Churchill

    By Selwyn Duke A 2009 poll found that more than a third of British teenagers couldn’t identify some of Winston Churchill’s most famous words.
