By Selwyn Duke Not that long ago, it was common for the hate-America-first crowd to say that our Mideast military adventures were “all about oil.” Oddly, we never actually saw that oil or benefited from greater black gold supplies until we ramped up our own domestic production. But now some are saying that Vladimir Putin’s…

By Selwyn Duke It’s ironic, but the hate-America-first crowd has another principle: Hate Vladimir Putin second. Of course, how many of them actually hate him as opposed to just effecting the pretense of such is a question. What’s for certain is that you are expected to feel, viscerally, that Vlad is bad. In fact, “Anything less than…

By Selwyn Duke While in a town I know well in rural upstate New York years ago, I saw a father and son emerge from its gun store. The boy, aged about 10, was carrying a neat looking Ruger Mini-14 rifle his dad had just purchased (“open carry” is legal in the county). I smiled…

By Selwyn Duke A good response to the self-righteous exclamation “You let your son play with toy guns!?” might once have been, “Well, yeah, he’s too young to have a real one!” But perhaps not anymore, not with a new addition to the firearms market: a smaller, lighter AR-15 designed just for kids.

By Selwyn Duke Legendary line “Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute” is obviously not the motto of the U.S. Soccer Federation. This seems apparent now that the organization just ended its six-year legal battle with the U.S. women’s soccer team by agreeing to fork over an additional $24 million in pay and…

By Selwyn Duke Echoing so many today, MSN.com ran this weekend the quite declarative headline, “The Confederate Flag: A symbol of hate for over 150 years.” Hate certainly was the motivator, too, when Anthony Hervey was run off the road and killed in 2015 in an incident related to that flag. Except that Hervey was…

By Selwyn Duke Violent, weapon-wielding, left-wing terrorists last week attacked an energy company in Western Canada, imperiling employees’ lives, causing millions in damages, and setting equipment alight. Yet Prime Minister Justin Trudeau doesn’t appear poised to use his Emergencies Act powers — declared earlier this week and approximating martial law — against them. Those he’s…

By Selwyn Duke From Grover Cleveland to Woodrow Wilson to JFK to Joe Biden, there’s a long history of presidents hiding ill health from the public. Wannabe presidents sometimes do it, too, with Hillary Clinton a prime example. Yet while pictures and videos of the twice-failed presidential candidate collapsing and needing help walking up stairs…

By Selwyn Duke There are different ways to identify an enemy within, but one is quite simple. Anybody who’d cancel George Washington should be considered a fifth-column member fit only for scorn and ostracism. We’ve seen attacks upon Washington take many forms, with San Francisco’s 2021 decision to rename a school bearing our first president’s…
