I was unable to watch Biden’s State of the Union speech live in Thailand, but I did listen to parts of it afterwards. And best I could tell, J. D. Vance had the right idea—boycott it because listening to lies can make one immune to them. But that’s not really the main point here. SOTU is just a speck in time. We knew, preceding the event, that Biden would make a campaign speech—Ukraine, abortion, transgenderism, Trump is Hitler—and attempt to boost his failing administration as much as possible. And attack Republicans. That is all Biden ever does. Anybody who expected...

'White middle-class ‘feminists’ have done terrible things,' the professor said An "intersectional feminist" professor in the United Kingdom claimed that it was "racist" to advocate for spaces exclusively for biological females, according to a research article. Dr. Helen Clarke is a professor affiliated with Oxford Brookes. "Helen’s research explores how decolonial feminism can be used to create alternative practices of solidarity, tackling trans-hostility in cis-lesbian communities. She is involved in various feminist projects, working at creating more inclusive and supportive activist environments for all women, non-binary folk and gender diverse people," a biography on the research paper said. Clarke’s main...

The Church of England has sparked backlash after posting a job for an anti-racism official who will be tasked with the mission of “deconstructing whiteness”. This week, the Church of England Dioceses in the West Midlands announced that it is looking for an “anti-racism practice officer” who will be paid £36,000 per year. The posting stated that the position would entail identifying “internal and external resistance to addressing issues of anti-racism in a way that develops understandings of equality and positions everyone to take an equal role”.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's deeply unpopular regime rolled out new legislation Monday that threatens to radically transform the Canadian legal landscape and equip activists with new means of clamping down on speech they perceive to be hateful. On its face, Bill C-63, the so-called "Online Harms Act," contains various uncontroversial elements such as the promise to tackle child pornography online. While Justice Minister Arif Virani and other Liberal officials have emphasized these elements when promoting the bill, the child protections appear only to be the vehicle for the transformative substance of C-63. C-63 would enable Trudeau's leftist government to define...

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis subjected her employees to mandatory race training, forcing the entire office to rate “Black” or “White” skin colors as either “Good” or “Bad,” according to training slides and video exclusively obtained by Breitbart News. “If you didn’t participate in the quiz, you got fired,” a source exclusively told Breitbart News about Willis’s policy. Sources who shared the race training with Breitbart News wished to remain anonymous for fear of retribution due to their direct knowledge of the “corrupt” and “hostile work environment” inside the District Attorney’s Office. Sources described the race training as a...

MSNBC host Joy Reid lamented that black Americans have not received sufficient reparations for “literally, physically” building this country, believing that former President Barack Obama’s eight-year tenure is the best they will get. Reid issued her comments during an interview on Salon Talks with writer Dean Obeidallah wherein she said that black people “literally, physically, built this country” and therefore deserve much more than a two-term black president.

Dan Partland's documentary examines the rise of Christian Nationalism as a political movement in America.It’s not surprising that Dan Partland’s documentary about the increasing influence of Christian Nationalism begins and ends with footage from Jan. 6., 2021. Christian Nationalists were among the principal organizers of the insurrection that occurred that day, which featured a trespasser carrying a Christian flag onto the Senate floor. God & Country, which counts Rob Reiner among its producers, delivers a bracing primer on the rise of this political movement that should thoroughly scare the large majority of American adults who don’t embrace it. And,...

A mandatory “re-orientation” for first-year University of Wisconsin Law School students last week included a survey prompting participants to share racial slurs and instruction that colorblindness is bad and that racial minorities cannot be racist, according to a source who attended Friday’s session. Like other euphemistically-titled “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) programming, the presentation on Friday preached the usual dogmas of Marxist-steeped critical race theory and “anti-racism” that have infiltrated U.S. college campuses, the source said. These doctrines teach that the United States — particularly its legal system — is systemically racist, that “whiteness” must be “dismantled,” and that the...

The keynote speaker of the World Economic Forum’s 2024 annual conference in Davos was Ursula von der Leyen, European Commission President. She stated the top global risk for the EU is disinformation and misinformation, declaring disinformation destroys trust and limits the ability to “tackle the big global challenges.” In plain English, trust can only be restored by censoring inconvenient facts and evidence. Below is a short clip (1:39) highlighting her disinformation sermon. The top risk in the WEF’s 2024 Global Risk Report is disinformation. If not controlled, societies will be polarized, elections will be disrupted, and there will be mistrust...

MSNBC cancels Mehdi Hasan's show in major shakeup of its weekend lineup: Islamist "far-left" host has criticized Israel's war on Hamas and once compared non-Muslims to 'animals' and homosexuals to 'pedophiles'.

Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who suggested the U.S. and Israel were just as guilty of "war crimes[sic]" as terrorist groups like Hamas and the Taliban.In April 2023, Mehdi Hasan lashed out after being fact-checked on twitter for his statements on racial...

The current political and demographic shifts in Europe are an existential threat to its indigenous populations, not seen since the Gates of Vienna in 1683, with concerns that European identity, culture, and history are in danger of extinction due to the joint efforts of the left and Islam. A recent broadcast on ORF’s “Zeit im Bild” has ignited a firestorm of controversy, featuring Verena Brunschweiger, a climate activist who openly advocated for replacing Austrian children with immigrants from Africa and the Middle East. Driving her narrative with a deep-seated culture of guilt, Brunschweiger seeks to persuade whites and Europeans to...
