  • Professor Wants to Commit “Genocide” Against Western Civilization

    Back to School DuncecapBy Selwyn Duke

    Westerners used to believe they were heirs to the greatest civilization to ever grace God’s green Earth. They then descended into a culturally relativistic mentality stating, “Who’s to say one civilization is better than another?” The next transition was a cynical, “Meh, we’re not so hot.” Then there was the full-bore hatred of Marxist and other left-wing revisionists who claimed the West was exploitative and inspired sentiments such as the ’80s chant, “Hey hey, ho ho, Western Civ has got to go.” But now, under an Oxford professor’s theory, it doesn’t have to go.

    Because it doesn’t exist in the first place.

  • Leftist Humiliates Herself on TV With Inability to Explain Trump’s “Crimes”

    Back to School DuncecapBy Selwyn Duke

    “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool,” the old saying goes, “than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.” People should perhaps be mindful of this before publicly defending the indefensible — such as New York’s kangaroo-court conviction of President Trump.

    One person who might’ve learned this the hard way is “journalist” and stand-up comedienne Francesca Fiorentini. Appearing recently on an episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored, funny-lady Fiorentini did get the fellow guests laughing — at her own expense — when she claimed Trump was convicted because he committed an actual crime but then could not, for the life of her, explain what that crime might be.

  • What Does Having Grossly Obese and Male Pageant Winners Say About America?

    Politically CorrectBy Selwyn Duke

    If “American exceptionalism” now means leading the world in providing comic relief, then we’ve just increased our lead. This is perhaps indisputable with news of a grossly obese Alabama pageant winner and a man — yes, a man — being crowned Miss Maryland.

  • Jordan Peterson Tackles Trump Derangement Syndrome

    Angry ManBy Selwyn Duke

    It’s a fascinating phenomenon, people hating a man so thoroughly, so intensely, so irrationally. The wrath showered upon the 45th president is so anomalous and extreme, in fact, that it even has a name: Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). And it’s so befuddling that one of our time’s greatest psychologists has now weighed in on it.

    In a recent interview with Fox News Digital, Canadian psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson delved into the etiology of TDS and said that the “degree of animosity some people have for Trump is actually somewhat of a mystery to me. I can’t quite crack it.”

  • Is Democratic Party Rule Nothing But Mob Rule?

    Banana RepublicBy Selwyn Duke

    There is mob rule — and then there is glorified mob rule. The former is obvious, such as when an uncontrolled group of men summarily hangs a person without trial or due process. Glorified mob rule is subtler, possessing a thin veneer of propriety and legality, such as a “democratic” determination or action contrary to the rule of law.

    An example of portraying mob rule as something nobler would be how Representative Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) called the 2011 left-wing-protester invasion of the Wisconsin Capitol — which became the longest demonstrator occupation of a government building in U.S. history — an “impressive show of democracy in action.” Pelosi isn’t alone in her party in this thinking, either, says one writer; rather, “mobocracy” is now the Democrats’ default mode.

  • Minnesota Vice: Juror Was Offered 120K to Acquit Thieving Somali Migrants

    B4a8b014-7b0a-48a5-b942-3aad8b6a3f68By Selwyn Duke

    If you thought your tax money was just used to fly illegal aliens into our nation’s interior and house them in pricey hotels, think again. Some of it is also now being used, apparently, to attempt to buy migrants acquittals in our justice system.

    This is the obvious conclusion after at least one Minnesota juror was offered $120,000 to acquit Somali migrants on trial for stealing Covid relief funds intended for needy children.

    Since the story broke, verdicts have been rendered, and the media have run titles such as “Bag of cash doesn’t stop jurors from convicting 5 of 7 defendants in $40 million food fraud scheme.” This does seem a bit cavalier, though. For is it possible that the efforts did stop jurors from convicting the other two?

  • FBI Agents Fear Jail If Trump Is Elected, Says Ex-FBI Official McCabe

    Man in Handcuffs2By Selwyn Duke

    Former FBI agent Peter Strzok and his bureau paramour, Lisa Page, used their positions to try to defeat Donald Trump in 2016’s presidential election. Now, though, dishonest FBI agents may have an even greater incentive to undermine Trump’s White House efforts — if ex-deputy FBI director and “dirty cop” Andrew McCabe is to be believed.

    After all, he claims, FBI agents fear they’ll go to prison if Trump is reelected — and some are even contemplating fleeing the country.

    My, some can now just hear that old law-enforcement refrain, “You’ve got nothing to fear if you haven’t done anything wrong….”

  • Trad Wives vs. Sad Wives?

    91dabba8-3ae5-4edf-b7a1-fe15c33bdc0cBy Selwyn Duke

    It’s a sign of the times that “trad wives” are a growing phenomenon on the internet. Oh, it’s not just that this movement — of traditional women content tending to hearth and home — represents a rebellion against feminism-driven female careerism. It’s that this special status reflects how society has been completely transformed. After all, not long ago in history the term “trad wife” didn’t exist because the role was the default.

    Something close to it still might be if American women had their way. A 2015 Gallup poll found that 56 percent of women with children would rather stay home than go to work and that 39 percent of childless women under 18 said they wanted to be homemakers. (This is interesting given how intense careerist conditioning has been.) In light of this, perhaps it’s not surprising that trad-wife influencers are gaining in popularity and sparking conversation.

  • Left-wing Violence: Abortion Radicals Attack Churches; Biden Turns Blind Eye

    Burning ChurchBy Selwyn Duke

    There are sins of commission, things you shouldn’t have done, but did; and sins of omission, things you should have done, but didn’t. When the two come together, you can have evildoers and enablers, such as when miscreants commit crimes and authorities ignore the crimes.

    Enter the Biden administration.

  • Constitutional Law Professor: Americans Must STOP “Worshiping” the Constitution

    Boot on Declaration of IndependenceBy Selwyn Duke

    Years ago, comedian/commentator Bill Maher complained that too many Americans think the Ten Amendments are the Ten Commandments. (In reality, people such as Maher think the Ten Commandments are the Ten Amendments.) Yet now this sentiment is coming from someone who, one might hope, should know better: A constitutional law professor who insists that we must stop “worshiping” the Constitution.

    The call is in a new book titled The Constitutional Bind: How Americans Came to Idolize a Document That Fails Them, written by one Aziz Rana, a professor at Boston College Law School.
