Dear friends; how can any society survive when moral absolutes are being violently eradicated EXPONENTIALLY right before our eyes? How can we as a nation survive when individuals who seek to promote morality are hated, cancelled, scoffed at, and demonized by millions of Americans and by both political parties? The very sobering answer my dear friend is, “It will not! nor will it EVER!” Thus, we now see the final sad state and coming downfall of our once great and highly respected nation as the Day of the Lord is rapidly approaching (Psalm 11:3, Prov. 14:3). Look at the heading...

Jews, women, the working class – leftists have betrayed everyone they once claimed to speak for.What does it mean to be radical, left-wing, progressive? Well, in 2023, it meant making excuses for a genocidal anti-Semitism, refusing to believe evidence of mass rape and naysaying about the terroristic murder of infants. This was the year the ‘right side of history’ brigade exploded their phoney moral superiority for good....When Hamas sent men on paragliders, motorbikes and in jeeps into southern Israel on 7 October – murdering, raping, mutilating and kidnapping as many Jews as they could find – I thought those on...

There is a little known, and less understood, mental affliction, which I will call transfixion. It is to the mind what setting is to concrete. When freshly mixed with water, concrete is malleable. Once it sets, however, it hardens irreversibly and can no longer be reshaped, or corrected, unless it is cut or broken. The transfixed mind is like that. Before you go leafing through your DSM (psychiatry’s diagnostic manual), don’t bother; transfixion is not there. It is, however, very real. One can observe it when attempting to reason with any committed leftist. The condition is common and has been...

The Left is less a political movement than a neurotic clown collective arrogantly spouting toxic imbecility. Often, yours truly has expounded (okay, ranted) upon the term “narrative,” which is just an artful euphemism for “lie.” A device drawn from fiction, as opposed to non-fiction, it facilitates lying by eliding the need for providing the facts and proving the truth of one’s assertions. Consequently, it is a boon to propagandists, who can harp on a “narrative” ad nauseum to provoke and persuade the public to do as the purveyor of the lie seeks. For the Left, one oft used word signaling...

And there’s a whole lot of mourning going on. Here’s a partial list of some recent observations. In 2020, we reelected President Trump in an historic landslide, but in a handful of key states, through several coordinated methods (including foot soldier election fraud and computerized voting machine manipulation), the election was stolen in the dead of election night. Joe Biden was not elected President. It was a criminal coup that put him there. There was NO “attack” on the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021. There was NO “insurrection.” There WAS an FBI-orchestrated set-up by a small number of men...

Last week, in this column, I argued, “What happens in Israel will not stay in Israel.” I went on to warn that “the next shoe to drop may be in Galveston rather than Gaza.” Is this warning a bit over the top, or is there a reason to take it seriously? Well, if Solomon was right when he said, “As a man thinketh, so he is,” let’s consider what the people who fancy themselves the moral conscience of America and the West actually think and say. Here’s a short summary. “White people are a genetic defect of blackness. Whiteness is...

What is the proper amount of Islam in American public life? Pick a number from one to 10. If we disregard the extremes, most people will land somewhere between three and eight, a spectrum that could roughly be translated as ranging from “My parents were Muslim, but I don’t know much about it” to “The president says his Islamic beliefs will guide his new agenda.” On the occasion of the publication of his new book, “Reopening Muslim Minds: A Return to Reason, Freedom, and Tolerance,” I interviewed the Muslim writer and intellectual Mustafa Akyol and asked him, if his argument...

One of the hallmarks of Leftist methodology is to assert blatant falsehoods as real and then act on them—with the fierce urgency of now!—as if they were true. At first dismissed as too absurd to take seriously, this approach has proven highly successful. The triumph of relativism and the concomitant loss of belief in even the most fundamental verities has resulted in the complete emasculation of the culture —and don't expect newly defeminized women to take up the slack. The Left's squadrons of vicious, shameless lawyers take as their operating principle: "we can make the argument that...," the argument being...

Tyre Nichols footage unmasks the left’s ugly blood libelCities around the country braced themselves for the possibility of riots last week after police bodycam footage was released in connection with the death of a black suspect, Tyre Nichols, who was pulled over for driving erratically. The footage appears to show Nichols receiving a severe beating at the hands of Memphis police after resisting arrest. As with so many of these instances, it is wise not to rush to judgment, but the available video seems rather damning for the officers involved. The injuries from the beating would later prove fatal, and...

The plans of the authoritarian left should be clear to anyone who's paying attention. The question becomes, what do we do about it? Anti-liberty authoritarians of the fascist far left want to destroy the U.S. as founded, replacing it with a national socialist state in the model of red China. Anyone paying attention should know all of this by now. They should go read some books, and learn some facts, before they project their 80-year-old lies. The intentions of the left are quite obvious by now. Despite the propaganda smokescreen of the nation's socialist media continually carping about a four-hour...

A nationwide shoplifting epidemic is crippling the finances of brick-and-mortar retailers, who warn that they may be forced to raise prices or even shutter stores in order to offset tens of billions of dollars in lost inventory. The National Retail Foundation is estimating that it lost $94.5 billion last year due to “shrink” — an industry term that means lost inventory — which is being blamed primarily on shoplifting, according to The Wall Street Journal.

As expected, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has cleared the way for the Soros-backed Latino Media Network’s (LMN) purchase of 18 Televisa Univision radio stations, among them Miami’s Radio Mambí. Inside Radio reported this on Monday:The FCC decision clears the way for the closing of the sale that involves 18 stations including 10 AMs and eight FMs in the largest U.S. markets, including eight of the top 10 Latino markets. Markets included are Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Houston, Chicago, Dallas, San Antonio, McAllen, Fresno, and Las Vegas. LMN, a new company founded by social entrepreneurs Stephanie Valencia and Jess...

Earlier in the day, I warned readers that Biden was set to make Wednesday night about democracy. Well, I watched Custard’s Last Stand. On the upside, I need to lose a little weight and now I have no appetite. I thought I would address my reaction to the ersatz commander-in-chief: Dear Mr. President, First of all, the United States of America is not a democracy. Dear God, that is Civics 101. America is a republic. It was designed as a republic because the framers knew that democracies could easily descend into mob rule. That includes mobs you like. More on...

It’s ‘democracy’ vs. the ‘stochastic terrorists’ — AKA, the Regime vs. the People. Do you stand outside abortion mills, praying for intercession or singing hymns? Or do you possibly minister to the mothers as they transport their unborn to the medical gallows? Do you oppose the physical and physiological mutilation of children at Big Pharma “gender” centers? Do you believe that schools should teach the basics, rather than cultural Marxism and deviant sexual ideology? Do you maybe, just maybe, believe the government could be lying about “official” narratives? Odds are, you’re probably a “terrorist.” Enter a novel, and rather ingenious...

One of the topics I write about fairly consistently is ethnicity (in the true sense of the term), ethnogenesis, and the impact these have on Western societies. Especially in the American case, ethnogenesis has been an ongoing process that has helped to differentiate Americans from their European forebearers. Indeed, as I’ve pointed out elsewhere, ethnogenesis has actually created two White ethnies occupying the territory of the United States, ethnies which are mutually and increasingly antagonistic. In this post, I’d like to go beyond merely reiterating the existence of that ethnogenesis and discuss some of the consequences of it. One of...

Sorry, Gropey Joe: fewer people are buying into your scare scheme, your Inflation Reduction Act, and almost everything else you stand for.A recent Harvard CAPS / Harris poll indicates Americans are more worried about the commies than the MAGA crew. The poll was taken on Sept. 7–8, one week after Biden’s Stalin-like fear-porn speech where he claimed people in MAGA hats represent “an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.”The poll asked the question, “Are you more concerned about the Socialist left in America and the power they are gaining or more afraid of MAGA Republicans and the...

On Monday, the judge handling the case of the FBI’s Mar-a-Lago raid made an official decision to appoint a special master to review the documents seized. That came after she dropped a preliminary notice that she intended to do so at the end of August.The DOJ’s subsequent arguments apparently weren’t very convincing, and now they will be forced to cease their investigation as the process plays out. The judge found numerous instances of privileged material making it through the government’s filter team, and revelations that medical records and tax returns were taken only provided more reason to move ahead with...

Those holding liberal views and the principles that go with them are very different from those of us who claim to be conservatives or libertarians. The contrast between the left and right that make up the halves of America has never been more pronounced — nor, I would argue, more hazardous to our country's health. With midterm elections coming up in just about ten weeks' time, this might be the right moment to reflect on just how different the two Americas are. The overarching differencesLet's start with traditional conservatives. By traditional, I am referring to a set of values that...

Neither the media, nor the IRS, nor a whole host of liberal elites, are your friend anymore. If you’re reading this, you have powerful enemies. Start with our puppet president, Crusty Joe. He’s called Trump supporters -- those who would make America great again -- the “most extreme political organization” that ever existed in American history. If you love America, you’re an enemy of the state in Joe Biden’s increasingly fried mind; and he’d like nothing more than to give you the January 6 treatment: Lock you in a cell, take away your Constitutional rights, and throw away the key....

It seems to be only now occurring to progressives how heavily they had leaned on the Supreme Court to act as their cat’s-paw — and how little work they have done to try not only to secure the maximum possible number of Democratic appointments to the Court but, more important, to defend and fortify the intellectual position that made those activist judges such reliable progressive policy-makers for all those decades. And it only now seems to really be becoming clear to them what they have lost by failing to defend that intellectual ground: not only the Roe regime but also...
