50 Colleges Endorse ‘International Pronouns Day’
Don’t feel bad if you’ve never celebrated “International Pronouns Day,” because Oct. 17 is the first day set aside to “make asking, sharing, and respecting personal pronouns commonplace.” More than 50 colleges are participating in this “historic” event. Well, I conceded it’s historic, but not in the way the organizers hope. Never before in the history […]
Fake Academics Publish Hilarious Faux ‘Grievance Articles’ in Journals
An amazing Twitter thread told how three people posing as academics published papers in academic journals that… well, shall we say, showed these journals for the farces that they are. The person who promoted the farce was Yascha Mounk, whose Twitter bio reads “Lecturer @Harvard, Senior Fellow @NewAmerica, Columnist @Slate, Host of The Good Fight podcast. Defending liberal […]
Professor Who Tweeted that Men Should be Castrated and Fed to Pigs Suspended from Twitter
In case they ever leave any room for doubt, leftists really, really hate us. Especially us white men. Need proof? Read this from the Daily Caller about C. Christine Fair, an associate professor at Georgetown in the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University: A professor at Georgetown University known for making incendiary comments against supporters of […]
Dangerous: Maxine Waters’s Office May Have Doxxed GOP Senators During Kavanaugh Testimony
It looks like Maxine Waters’ office apparently tried to get violent against Republican Senators. As Republicans held a hearing on the sexual assault allegations of Dr. Ford against Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh, someone uploaded the personal information of GOP senators on Wikipedia — plain for the world to see. This included phone numbers and […]
Looks like Kavanaugh has the Votes, but this National Ordeal is Far from Over
I have no idea if this is true or not, but I wanted to pass along in the hopes that it is: With the Senate Judiciary Committee holding a vote at 9:30 A.M. tomorrow, a Senate insider has told Townhall that Kavanaugh has the votes to make it out of committee and the votes to be confirmed on […]
Why I Doubt Projections of a Democratic Midterm Surge
RollCall recently interviewed me about the oh-so-inevitable blue surge coming our way. But is it? Mark Meckler, one of the founders of the Tea Party Patriots, helped harness anger on the right in the 2010 midterms to topple Democratic incumbents and drive out some Republicans from the center in one of the biggest GOP waves in […]
McClatchy Writer Desperate to Make Drama between Nikki Haley and Trump
In case there wasn’t already enough drama in this nation now, a McClatchy writer named Anita Kumar is trying to drum up more. She begins her most recent article — headlined “Nikki Haley is a GOP rising star. But some don’t like her stealing Trump’s spotlight” — like this: Almost as soon as the New […]
Finally! Philadelphia Will Dismantle Its Unfair and Illegal Asset Forfeiture Program and Pay Victims $3 Million
Because I’m concerned about self-governance and government overreach, I really dislike civil forfeiture laws. These allow police to seize cash, cars, and even houses from people suspected of being connected to criminal activity. Note: they have the right to do this even if the owner is not charged with a crime. These laws give police […]
Two Kavanaugh Articles that Really Hit the Nail on the Head
As usual, Victor Davis Hanson nails it again in National Review, when he compares the Supreme Court confirmation process to George Orwell’s dystopian novel, 1984. In Orwell’s world of 1984 Oceania, there is no longer a sense of due process, free inquiry, rules of evidence and cross examination, much less a presumption of innocence until […]
Sen. Ted Cruz Chased Out of DC Restaurant by Anti-Kavanaugh Protestors
Want to be sick to your stomach? Last night, Republican Texas Senator Ted Cruz was dining with his wife in a Washington D.C. restaurant when protesters arrived, surrounded their table, and started chanting “We believe survivors.” That, of course, is a reference to the allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. Another protestor […]
