Fevered and fearful, or perhaps fearsome, media claimed that Daily Wire podcast host Michael Knowles said in a CPAC speech that “transgender” people should be “eradicated.” While he made no such remark, there’s not even the slightest possibility such a quasi-genocide could occur, for a simple reason:

You can’t eradicate people who don’t exist.

Oh, “transgenderism,” which is a political and social movement, certainly exists.

What should be called sexual identity disorder also exists.

And people masquerading as the opposite sex exist.

But no one is “transgender” because humans don’t have “gender” (words do) but the quality called “sex” — and you can’t transition from one sex to the other.

Just click on the player, and my appearance will begin after the host's introduction. I think it went well and was a fruitful discussion. 

"While it has become fashionable to find fault with Western civilization,
a world without the West would not be a pleasant place for anyone

“The future is female,” the feminist rallying cry goes. If this is true, the future is “now” in academia, and if academia is any indication, the future is also something else: bleak.

This conclusion could be drawn from a recent article, “In Loco Masculi,” by Manhattan Institute fellow Heather Mac Donald. In it she reports on a most ironic development: While the university system was created by men and for men, its feminization is now “all but complete.” The problem is that, far from the “gentler” sex’s dominance creating a kinder, gentler, college experience, research shows that female faculty are fostering academic tyranny.

This is my interview from this morning on 790 WAEB-AM in Pennsylvania, with host Bobby Gunther Walsh. I again discussed my New American cover story "A World Without the West."

Being normal, in the sense of optimal, ain’t what it used to be.

That is, almost universally recognized as ideal.

In fact, a war on normality has long been afoot, and the latest example is a prominent YouTuber who’s being slammed for doing what Jesus did (though not single-handedly or supernaturally): cure blindness.

At issue is YouTube sensation MrBeast (actual name Jimmy Donaldson), who, it turns out, “is the highest-earning creator on the platform with a record-breaking 136 million subscribers….

We discussed "Black History Month" and why actor Morgan Freeman was correct to dismiss it as something that shouldn't exist. My appearance begins at 17:06.

If you’re tired of giving money to woke corporations that fund political correctness with your pocketbook and then laugh all the way to the bank, well, you now may be able to wipe that smile right off their faces. For there’s a new big-business player in town: a patriotic online marketplace called Public Square (PublicSq.).

What’s more, with reports that it’s set to merge with Colombier Acquisition Corporation in a $200 million dollar deal, the hope is that it will give every consumer an Amazon-like alternative to our increasingly woke business world.
