If we saw a lynch mob coming for some hapless soul, wild-eyed and bloodthirsty and demanding his scalp, we’d say that whatever his alleged crimes, he deserves due process. Yet this has not been afforded to Christopher Columbus. The once revered Italian explorer has been under withering attack in recent years, with his statues often toppled and his reputation tarnished with nary any defense in mainstream media. But there’s good reason why we honor Columbus, as it could be said that this man, whom we’re now so divided over, divided history.

Before addressing the charges against him, Columbus’s achievements should be put in perspective. This can be done simply and uniquely: Imagine that someone today discovered and visited another planet, more magnificent than Earth herself, on the far side of the sun. Imagine it was home to new civilizations and fascinating creatures; was teeming with resources; and that trade between it and our planet led to an exchange of foods, animals, ideas, innumerable items of value and, yes, diseases. Would this new world’s discovery not be a seminal point in history? Would it not be, in a sense, the dawning of a new age?

It must be tough being Kamala Harris. We might never have heard of her if Willie Brown, the ex-San Francisco mayor who once wielded great clout in California politics, hadn’t given her a start in government in what was, well, let’s just say a carnal quid pro quo. Brown would much later say that Harris wasn’t presidential material, and the voters seemed to agree: Then a California senator, she dropped out of the 2020 presidential race in December 2019 — just as she was poised to lose her home state.

Harris hasn’t been any more alluring as vice president, with many describing her persona as “cringey.” Now, however, she has apparently gotten a personality makeover. Yet it’s not a hit, either. In fact, even the White House now might have dumped her.

Talk of the makeover arose because Harris just appeared in series of videos, created by a PR firm, featuring her talking to kids about space travel.

It has long been known that certain entities are getting rich off COVID. For example, major Democrat donors Amazon and Walmart made billions more during the pandemic after the Democrats locked down their small-business competition while allowing them to remain open. Now we hear an allegation from the other side of the world, Australia, that not only have Pfizer and AstraZeneca been paying lobbyists millions to pressure politicians to impose “vaccine” mandates, but that a recently ousted state premier was told that she wouldn’t be charged in a corruption probe if she forced “vaccines” on citizens.

And that politician, New South Wales premier Gladys Berejiklian, did in fact tell Sydney residents shortly before she resigned “that if they don’t take the Covid jab, they face total social isolation indefinitely after the stay-at-home order ends in December"….

Andrew Yang, the erstwhile presidential and NYC mayoral candidate, made big news this week. First, he announced Monday that he was leaving the Democratic Party.

Second, he stated that he was starting his own: the Forward Party.

He even has what sounds like his slogan, telling Tucker Carlson Today on Thursday that his party’s philosophy can be epitomized thus: “not left or right, but forward.”

This terminology is interesting, especially since Yang is billed as a “moderate” and a breath of fresh air. Note that Forward! was the name of the Italian Socialist Party’s newspaper — of which fascist leader Benito Mussolini was once chief editor. It also quite prominently became one of Barack Obama’s slogans.

What does mandating experimental “vaccines” for 12-year-olds, telling children they can become the opposite sex, exposing them to lewd material, forcing health-damaging masks on them, exposing them to racial propaganda, and killing unborn babies and then using their body parts for experimentation have in common? All these things are happening, for one.

They’re also all part of a very real but heretofore unlabeled phenomenon: systemic child abuse.

We hear much about “systemic racism.” Social-sphere robber barons (e.g., Attorney General Merrick Garland’s son-in-law) make millions peddling Critical Race Theory to schools, and demagogues use it to leverage political power. Yet the only actual institutionalized “racism” is against whites — in particular, white men — and to a lesser extent against Asian-descent Americans (i.e., college-admissions quotas).

Systemic child abuse, however, is rampant. In fact, while leftists are fond of selling proposals with the appeal, “Do it for the children,” the only thing they’re doing for the children is destroying them.

The “Justice for J6” rally on September 18 was a bust largely because, having seen what happened to the January 6 trespassers themselves, patriots were reluctant to put themselves in the government’s crosshairs. State intimidation works.

Now the feds want to do the same with parents, often mothers, who complain at school board meetings about COVID-19 restrictions and their children’s racial and sexual indoctrination. Meanwhile, when Black Lives Matter and Antifa thugs riot, they should be given “space” to “destroy,” as Baltimore’s mayor put it some years ago.  

School board meetings have become a focal point of anti-establishment, pro-virtue pushback this year, with parents taking left-wing board members to task for the outrageous curricula and regulations visited upon their kids. The board members are generally unsympathetic and at times have even tried to silence the parents (e.g., cutting someone’s mic). Now the National Association of School Boards has gone even further, sending the federal government a letter complaining about the dissent and likening the parental pushback to “domestic terrorism.” Apparently, the school board oligarchy shall not be questioned — and Attorney General Merrick Garland appears to agree.

“What they’re doing today is identical to what I remember growing up” under Soviet communism in Poland, lamented Pastor Artur Pawlowski recently. There is one difference, though:

The communists might have been a bit more even-handed.

Even in China today, religion is persecuted across the board; in fact, a million Uighur Muslims are in concentration camps. But, says Pawlowski, who was recently arrested the very moment he returned to Canada from a trip, while his church was shut down for violating COVID-19 guidelines, “mosques were fully operational” with thousands gathering together.

What’s more, Pawlowski warns Americans, “You’re next.”

Maybe they want to see who’ll blink first. But I’ve heard of Twitter suspending people’s accounts (e.g., Nicki Minaj) and banning users (e.g., President Trump), along with the games they routinely play, such as shadow-banning tweets. I’ve never heard, however, of someone being in Twitter limbo for more than six months while the Twitter twits “review” his appeal.

But that’s me.

September 17, 12:29 p.m. marked the six month anniversary of my first and only “suspension” from Twitter. Oh, it was a long time in coming. I mean, I’d posted so much politically incorrect material that I was wondering when I’d be suspended and, frankly, had been feeling a bit neglected, as if I wasn’t persecution-worthy. In particular, I’d sent a multitude of “un-woke” tweets (a.k.a. the Truth) about the MUSS (Made-up Sexual Status or “transgender”) agenda, which the Twitter twits are often intensely sensitive about. (I guess they can sympathize with aspiring shape-shifters, having long ago transitioned from a social media platform to an anti-social propaganda outfit.)

On the heels of learning that the Food and Drug Administration purchased aborted babies’ body parts and requested “fresh and never frozen,” comes another story that sounds as if it’s from a horror movie or one of human history’s darkest chapters:

Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have been conducting what have been called “Nazi-level experiments,” one of which involved grafting babies’ scalps onto lab rats.
