  • Ongoing Jihadist Infiltration into America

    American Thinker ^ | 6 May, 2024 | Eileen F. Toplansky
    Alleged pundits scratch their heads in puzzlement and ask: how did all these pro-Hamas outbursts suddenly appear on American universities? They are, in fact, not some spontaneous eruption, but clearly the product of an ongoing jihadist campaign to infiltrate America’s school system. Hamas leaders Yahya Sinwar, Ismail Haniyeh, Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas, and Yasser Arafat before them have for decades educated American universities to jihad. Recent events attest to their disturbing success. One such group, American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) was established in 2005 by University of California Berkeley lecturer Hatem Bazian. AMP “is a major promoter of the...

    Business Insider ^ | Meghan Morris, J.K. Trotter, John Cook, and Angela Wang
    * Insider has obtained a never-before-seen address book that appears to have belonged to Jeffrey Epstein in the '90s, connecting him to a new network of prominent financiers and political figures, including Melania Trump's best friend. * The book, which contains 349 names, offers a window into the late sex offender's social circle a full decade before the era covered by his previously known "little black book." More than 200 names listed in the book did not appear in Epstein's later address book. * Prominent entries not previously associated with Epstein include Morgan Fairchild, Suzanne Ircha, Carl Icahn, John A....
  • The Climate Cult Reacts As Its Political Position Begins To Slip

    Manhattan Contrarian ^ | 5 May, 2024 | Francis Menton
    For two decades and more, the political position of the climate alarm cult in the U.S. and Europe has only seemed to strengthen with time. In the U.S., the Obama and Biden Administrations have both pushed huge regulatory initiatives to restrict use of fossil fuels (with only some modest roll-backs during Trump’s four years); some of the most sweeping restrictions got pushed through just a week ago. Meanwhile, blue states like California and New York have enacted ever-more-extreme restrictions by statute. In Europe, there has been a near all-party political consensus in favor of the “net zero” agenda, notably including...

    Why is retail theft happening so suddenly and in such large amounts now? Los Angeles County Sheriff Department detectives proudly announced a complex and successful sting this week. A retail theft ring has been caught red-handed, with millions of dollars’ worth of make-up, perfume, pharmaceuticals, and more, stolen from stores in and around California, much of it still bearing store tags. Product has been recovered; at least a dozen locations have been revealed. Multiple fences have been identified, with eight arrests announced at the start, and likely more to follow. They will prove that shoplifting rings were organized to hit...

  • False-flag Nation

    American Thinker ^ | 6 May, 2024 | David Prentice
    The Left’s many accusations using the false-flag tactic have turned us into false-flag nation. The definition of a false flag is a hostile or harmful action (such as an attack) that is designed to look like it was perpetrated by someone other than the person or group responsible for it. It was first done by pirates who would fly flags of friendly nations to allow themselves to get close enough to attack merchant ships. The historical use of a flag isn’t the key -- it’s the deception. This kind of tactic has been used often: in 1939, Hitler faked an...
  • Here’s How We Know The Climate Crisis Is Not About The Climate

    Carbon dioxide is a pollutant, the Environmental Protection Agency says. It’s been drilled into us for more than 30 years that we have to cut our CO2 emissions if we don’t want the world to end too soon. But we know that the climate scare is in no way related to protecting the sky. The data tell us so. Over the last three calendar years, 2021, 2022, and 2023, “​​​​no country has reduced its carbon emissions more than any other major nation on a per capita basis,” the Committee to Unleash Prosperity tells us. “Even though our GDP is about...

    In the past, the rhetorical battle between us and the pro-choice side has generally been one where they attack our position and we defend it. But now it's time we turn the tables and make the other side defend the illogical, deceptive and immoral nature of their positions! Like how pro-choice people often say that, because men don’t have a uterus, they have no right to express an opinion about abortion. But what happened to the idea that our society was supposed to be against gender-based discrimination? Watch more "Abortion Distortion" videos from Life Dynamics for the no compromises, no...
  • US Military Academy Introduces Woke Curriculum with Courses on Deconstructing Patriotism, Cross-Dressing in the Military, Gender Norms, and Representation in the Ranks

    The United States Military Academy at West Point is introducing a new curriculum that includes courses on “deconstructing patriotism,” “cross-dressing in the military,” and other topics related to gender norms and representation. These courses are part of a broader initiative by the Biden regime to integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) propaganda into the curriculum over duty, honor, and country. Former Navy SEAL and Representative Scott Taylor (R-VA) tweeted his concerns after the curriculum was reportedly shared with him, stating, “This was sent to me, classes at U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Quite sure China and Russia are not...

    Tonette Scott, a mother to six, and previously a grandmother to six, celebrated the addition of four grandchildren in a single day. Scott was at the hospital supporting her daughter, Raighan Scott, who was in labor when the doctor came in with an unexpected announcement. Scott described the moment saying, Dr. Phillips came in. He said, ‘Well you better put some running shoes on, Grandma, 'cause you're gonna be going down the hall.' I said, ‘Why?' He said, ‘I just admitted Ty.' I said, ‘What!?' Another daughter, Tatyana Simmons, "Ty", was pregnant with twins and had come in dealing with...

    Daily Wire ^ | 4 May, 2024 | Ryan Saavedra
    Former U.S. Senator Ben Sasse (R-NE), now the president of the University of Florida, slammed pro-Hamas demonstrators this week who have created chaos on college campuses across the U.S. and the weak leadership at the universities that has allowed the behavior to happen. Sasse’s remarks come after the school released a statement early in the week revealing that numerous arrests were made on campus because the school would not tolerate disorderly conduct that was in violation of the school’s policies. “Higher education has for years faced a slow-burning crisis of public trust,” he wrote in an op-ed at The Wall...

    MOUNT HOREB, WI -- The Wisconsin Department of Justice on Saturday provided an update to the incident in Mount Horeb Wednesday. In a statement, the Wisconsin DOJ said around 11:11 a.m., a citizen called 911 after seeing a person moving toward Mount Horeb Middle School with a backpack and what appeared to be a long gun. Officers directed the person to drop the weapon, but the person did not comply. The DOJ said when the suspect pointed the weapon at the officers, the officers fired, hitting the suspect. Despite lifesaving measures, the subject died on scene. The DOJ said the...

    American Thinker ^ | 5 May, 2024 | Greg Salsbury
    Increasing numbers of worried Americans have been wondering over the last few years whether progressive Democrats have succeeded in creating a police state in America. From the Russia Hoax to the revelations of the Twitter Files release, to the coordinated attempts to quash scandalous and true Biden family stories, to the blatant display of dual justice, they’ve seen that the cabal of one political party, with its power bases in the government and the sycophant media, has succeeded in limiting or destroying political opponents while eliminating individual rights. Just how bad is it? Has that cabal suspended our American Constitution...

    American Thinker ^ | 5 May, 2024 | J.B. Shurk
    Perhaps the noblest thing that thinking people can do is let America’s university system implode. Watching these pro-Hamas riots taking place on some of America’s most pampered and privileged college campuses feels a lot like ripping off a dirty bandage only to discover that the foul-smelling flesh is teeming with gangrene. I know that most of the country’s esteemed academic institutions traded intellectual vitality for vapid political correctness many years ago, but still, students waging violent jihad in support of Israel’s destruction are a gut-wrenching sight. These are the same youthful, useless idiots who are always banging on about banning...

    American Greatness ^ | 4 May, 2024 | Stephen Soukup
    Why and how did this angry, odious, insufferable fantasist become the intellectual lodestar for the global left? This week, with the global celebration of May Day and with the ongoing protests on the nation’s college campuses, it is worth remembering that the man who largely inspired both was a hateful, intellectually shallow misanthrope, remembered by history and admired by jesters and dupes largely because of his odiousness. The First of May is celebrated by socialists around the world, not specifically because of Karl Marx but to honor the anarchists hanged for the Haymarket Affair in Chicago in 1886. Nevertheless, this...

    American Thinker ^ | 5 May, 2024 | Clarice Feldman
    I’m old. So old that I still believe that classic Western liberalism is the best system for assuring prosperity and peace, and authoritarianism, particularly of a theocratic nature, is a disastrous governance style. Watching the encampments and riots on college campuses, I see that too many young people have missed this lesson and instead support violent, barbaric, theocratic authoritarianism. I think these participants are not representative of a majority of students or voters and that the weak responses of some universities bode ill for their futures. Moreover, I think the Administration’s failure to act on the side of Western civilization...

    During a recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, Tucker Carlson made a bold claim about the August 1945 decision by the United States to bomb the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki—a move that effectively put an end World War II. He said:My ‘side’ has spent the last 80 years defending the dropping of nuclear bombs on civilians… like, are you joking? If you find yourself arguing that it’s a good thing to drop nuclear weapons on people, then you are evil.I like Tucker Carlson and find myself in agreement with him on many topics. I am especially...

    The videos I am sharing now got me kicked off Facebook 4 years ago. If you want to understand the political and religious reasons that our campuses are being infiltrated by Hamas and Hizb'allah forces and the anti-Jew hatred is growing at an alarming rate, these videos will tell you what happened inside our political system and our colleges. This is not a prophesy video, this is a national security briefing series of videos. This is about 6 hours of video that I took in 2012, and it is perfectly applicable today. https://rumble.com/playlists/StIpJlow6L4

    Every semester, the largest classroom at Northwestern University in Chicago is filled with hundreds of students who are eager to take a course devoted to Russian literature.

Professor Gary Saul Morson, welcome to Thinking in Public. Gary Saul Morson:Oh, it’s my pleasure to be here.
