By Selwyn Duke President Trump has made clear that he aims to trump Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) schemes. Democrats aim to trump him and keep them alive. And while the president will very likely win the current battle, in the federal political realm, what of the war? Is this just a matter of killing…

By Selwyn Duke Methinks the man doth protest too much. This twist on a Shakespeare line could come to mind while pondering the story of one Darrin Bell, Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist. Bell is famous for, among other things, drawing anti-Trump cartoons in which he portrays the president as a vile sex offender. He also often…

By Selwyn Duke It was Benjamin Franklin, it is said, who noted that “[g]uests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.” If this is true, what would the stench be like after more than a month? Well, the left-wing Gaîté Lyrique theater in Paris, France, ought to be able to tell you. After all,…

And if this standard still holds today, a…

By Selwyn Duke Most “mentally ill” people are on the political left, Harvard professor Arthur Brooks explained last year. In 2016, the American Journal of Political Science reported that liberal political beliefs are linked to psychoticism. A decade earlier, radio legend Dr. Michael Savage released his eyebrow-raising book Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder. But could it really be that there’s an association between…

By Selwyn Duke To H-1B or not to H-1B, that is the question. As is well known, and as is well loved by Democrats, there currently is an immigration battle among Republicans. Pitting the forces of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy against those of anti-immigrationist Laura Loomer and political strategist Steve Bannon, the dispute concerns…

By Selwyn Duke It holds the distinction of being our most densely populated state. Now people may wonder, though, is New Jersey also our most dense state? The question is relevant with news that the Garden State has tacitly confessed that it’s no fertile garden of intellectualism. The issue? NJ is having trouble finding enough…
