  • Do the White Thing: Trump’s EEOC Tackling Anti-white Job Discrimination

    By Selwyn Duke

    Here’s an interesting question for those claiming that anti-white bias, and anti-white-male bias in particular, is imaginary.

    Why do, as a 2021 study found, more than a third of white students claim racial-minority status on college applications? Is contagious masochism sweeping white America?

    The Donald Trump administration knows the answer, and its Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is, essentially, delivering it.

  • Save NYC Housing by Destroying It? That’s Mamdani’s Socialist Plan

    If you’ve watched the 1990 film Goodfellas, you may remember the segment where mob boss Paulie becomes a partner in a restaurant, then purposely bankrupts the place and torches it to collect insurance money. But the true story is far darker still. In reality, Paulie surreptitiously orchestrated the restaurateur’s difficulties in the first place, thus ensuring the man would seek his “help.” Then, upon achieving his ownership position, he could see his own will done completely.

    This comes to mind with the incoming New York City Zohran Mamdani administration. While it doesn’t comprise mobsters, officially, anyway, it apparently may use similar tactics to seize control of private property. As the New York Post recently related:

  • “Battle of the Sexes” Another Blow Against Feminism and “Transgender” Lunacy

    By Selwyn Duke

    In case you didn’t hear about it, and you might not have given that the outcome wasn’t media-narrative friendly, there was another tennis “Battle of the Sexes” yesterday. And, boy, it was not a good night for feminism and the “transgender” agenda.

    Aryna Sabalenka, a Belarusian and currently the world’s number one female player, took on notorious Australian tennis bad boy Nick Kyrgios in the United Arab Emirates. Kyrgios, currently 671 in the men’s rankings, has been largely absent from competitive ATP singles tennis for more than 2½ years due to injuries and surgeries. But they were the least of his handicaps in the match.

  • Soviet Europe? Trump BANS Euro Officials From U.S. in Free-speech War

    My, how the worm has turned. It was in 2009 that talk-show giant Michael Savage, along with others, was banned from Britain for exercising speech. Now, 16 years later, certain European officials are being banned from the United States for banning people for exercising speech. It’s just the latest in an unprecedented development: a war over liberty between an increasingly authoritarian Europe and a U.S. that under Donald Trump’s administration is championing Americanism.

    At issue, too, isn’t merely certain European countries closing their borders to a few Americans. Nor is the problem just that European Union (EU) nations suppress their own citizens’ tongues via tendentious “hate speech”-law application. It’s also that, reflecting China’s efforts to censor the U.S.’s movies, the EU’s online restrictions could suppress Americans’ online expression. This is because Big Tech companies often apply EU-compliant changes worldwide.

  • Climate-change Change: “Global Warming” Can Cause an Ice Age

    By Selwyn Duke

    It’s always nice when your theory covers most every possible outcome. Just consider the matter of anthropogenic (man-caused) climate change. We have, of course, heard that if the weather warms, the thesis is correct. If the weather merely becomes more volatile, we’re told, it’s also correct, with the “excess” atmospheric CO2 causing climatic upheaval. Then, too, we’ve heard as well that the theory is correct if the weather cools.

    (Not to mention that we’re never told what the Earth’s ideal average temperature would be. This precludes our knowing if any warming, whether naturally occurring or man-caused, is good or bad. For we then can’t know if it’s taking us closer to or farther from that ideal temperature.)

    The latest warming-begets-cooling theory comes from scientists at the University of California — Riverside (UCR). Reported last week by ScienceDaily, the website’s article is actually titled, “Global warming could trigger the next ice age.”

  • University Writing Center Rejected Proper English, Calling It “Linguistic White Supremacy”

    By Selwyn Duke

    There was a time when being a white supremacist meant something (for starters, that you were one in a million). Today, though, it appears that anyone can be a white supremacist. Why, all journalist Larry Elder had to do to become “the black face of white supremacy” was seek California’s governorship. And now all you need to do to become the linguistic face of white supremacy is uphold Standard American English (SAE).

    That is, according to certain “intellectuals” — such as those at the Metropolitan State University of Denver’s (MSUD’s) Writing Center.

    Yes, that’s right. Don’t dare tell students not to speak like a cross between Snoop Dogg and the rapist in the film Deliverance. Otherwise, you could be guilty of “anti-black linguistic racism.”

  • Merry Christmas!

    I wish you a very merry and blessed Christmas. May your Christmas season be filled with love, joy and the grace of God.

    And here’s some food for thought:

    “Holidays” is a contraction of “Holy Days.” So if someone says to you, “Happy Holidays,” you can respond, “And Happy Holy Days to you!”

    (“Merry Christmas” works, too.)

    God bless,

  • Post-Bondi, a Woman Applauds Male Courage

    By Selwyn Duke

    “‘Guns don’t kill people; men and boys kill people,’ experts say,” read an October 2017 USA Today headline. The next month, Democrat Dana Nessel, running for Michigan attorney general, told state residents to support her, not a man. She meant any man because, her reasoning went, a woman won’t likely commit sexual harassment. (Nessel won her race; now, in 2025, she’s being investigated for ethics violations.)

    Yet these sentiments by Americans, issued in a time of perhaps peak misandry, had nothing on the Swedes’ anti-male machinations. Ahead of the curve in 2004, their country’s Left Party (its actual name) proposed a “Man Tax” (its actual name). As you may guess, this was a special levy on men designed to compensate society for male violence’s cost.

  • Pandering to Illegal Aliens, Police Chief Plays the “Joseph, Mary, and Jesus Were Refugees” Card

    ‘Tis the season to…use the Christmas story for political gain?

    We’ve heard the line repeatedly. Somehow, we’re not supposed to secure our borders in 2025 and deport invaders because 2,000 years ago the Holy Family were “refugees.” Just today, for example, Newspeak Newsweek wrote that “it’s worth remembering that Jesus began life as a refugee.” (And, apparently then, it’s worth forgetting that we have immigration laws.)

    Another example is Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara. Bothered that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is enforcing immigration law in the Mini Apple, he likened Somali criminals’ plight to the Holy Family’s. Whether or not the chief believes that President Donald Trump is now a Herod targeting all Minneapolis Somali boys two years old and younger was not reported.
