By Selwyn Duke Church-attendance habits have long been one of the best predictors of voting patterns. That is, regular attendees support Republicans by a significant margin, while those never or seldom attending break solidly Democrat. But a new study has revealed a striking exception to this rule: black American churchgoers. In fact, just the opposite as…

By Selwyn Duke “The perfect should not be the enemy of good,” the saying goes. This comes to mind when hearing about a lamentable reality: Some pro-life Americans, upset about what many consider President Donald Trump’s “softening” abortion stance, are now reluctant to support him. Some may vote a pro-life ticket, if and where an…

By Selwyn Duke Not long ago, France made abortion a “constitutional right.” Britain hasn’t followed suit, but it can’t because it doesn’t have a constitution. In a way, however, it’s going France one better (read: worse). Its government has just convicted a veteran and father of two for praying silently near an abortion “clinic.” The…

By Selwyn Duke A startling political phenomenon exists, and it has never been more profound than during this election cycle. That is, if only women voted, Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris would win in a landslide. If only men voted, Republican presidential nominee President Donald Trump would win in a landslide. And one issue that…

For example, the #WalkAway (from the Democrats) campaign was founded by disaffected liberal Brandon Straka in 2018. Six years later,…

By Selwyn Duke “We make a living by what we get,” said Winston Churchill, “but we make a life by what we give.” Well more than 2,000 years before, ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu also sang charity’s praises. “The wise man does not lay up his own treasures,” he averred. “The more he gives to…

By Selwyn Duke When even The New York Times complains about your leftism, you know that you not only jumped the shark with wokism, but that the shark you jumped is a megalodon. This is the case, too, with a new report on how the University of Michigan squandered megabucks on DEI indoctrination. The result of these…

By Selwyn Duke The Oregon Department of Forestry’s second-in-command has been put on administrative leave for committing what is now, apparently, considered misfeasance. His sin? The official, one Mike Shaw, resolved to hire at his bureau the “candidates most qualified for the job.” That’s what Megan Donecker — a purple-haired, tattooed DEI trainer who filed…

By Selwyn Duke There was a time, not long ago, when reciting the Pledge of Allegiance was standard in schools — and uncontroversial. Then it became an issue — and optional. Now it’s not even an option at one Vermont school, say local parents.
