By Selwyn Duke While driving home from an Easter gathering not long after midnight and trying to keep my eyes open, something on the radio made them wide. “The plants believe they’re going extinct because of climate change,” said the speaker, “so they’re releasing more pollen,” is how I remember it. Had the Onion entered the terrestrial radio…

By Selwyn Duke Seemingly wrong about virtually everything, the “smart people turn out to be dumb! Why is that?” asked Fox News host Tucker Carlson Thursday evening. The answer, as the pundit admitted at the time, is deep enough so that it cannot be done justice in a five-minute television segment. The commentator opened his…

By Selwyn Duke In yet another episode of academics behaving badly, a college professor walked into New York City’s iconic St. Patrick’s Cathedral while carrying gasoline, lighter fluid, and lighters — in an apparent arson attempt — just two days after the shocking fire at Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. Read the rest here. 

By Selwyn Duke Fresh from gazing into her crystal ball, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has delivered what she calls “A Message from the Future.” It’s presented in a slick video about how she saved the world via her Green New Deal, a work she narrates with the cocksureness of a 20-year-old boxer boasting about how he’s…

By Selwyn Duke “The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next,” goes the apocryphal saying. This may explain why leftist Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador, doing the bidding of a leftist teachers’ union, has halted reform of his nation’s wanting education system. After all,…

By Selwyn Duke Recently discovered Islamic State (IS) documents reveal that, as many had warned all along, not all Syrian migrants are coming to Europe fleeing war — some want to bring the war to Europe. In fact, the new information informs that the IS has a member specifically tasked with facilitating this dark endeavor.…

By Selwyn Duke Civilizations rise and fall, and the West is in the autumn of its ascendancy, many prognosticators have warned. Among them is Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov (shown, right), who said Friday that “the Western, liberal model of society is dying, and a new world order is taking its place,” as Tsarizm relates it. Of course,…

By Selwyn Duke Taking a leaf out of Barack Obama’s book, President Trump announced Friday that he may give leftist politicians exactly what they claim to want: more impoverished migrants. In fact, Trump proposes sending the illegals currently streaming across our border — aided and abetted by leftist-disgorged immigration law and activist judges — right…

By Selwyn Duke The Big Apple is a sanctuary city for illegal aliens, who sometimes carry diseases, but not for Americans who don’t want to be vaccinated against them. As a case in point, Bolshevik Bill (a.k.a. Mayor De Blasio) just ordered that all adults and children older than six months in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg section…

By Selwyn Duke What a civilization feels guilty about speaks volumes. In Sweden, it’s not stealing children and putting them in abusive foster care, proposing a special tax on just one sex, trying to compel boys to tinkle sitting down, or silencing dissent with hate-speech laws. But pangs of conscience over flying on airplanes and increasing your Carbon Footprint™ are a…
