Whitewash Islamism

IMANI: The Unholy Alliance Between Islam and the Left

The progressive establishment in the United States maintains a transactional syndicate with radical Islamist factions to lock down institutional power. This structural cartel sacrifices Western secular principles, democratic consistency, and basic human rights on the altar of raw electoral survival. The political left and Islamist organizers operate a highly coordinated machine built on mutual opportunism. … Read more

ANDERSON: How American Progressives Influenced Hitler

In a recent article, I agreed with Justice Clarence Thomas that progressivism has done (and still does) much damage to our body politic and society. Obviously, the so-called intelligentsia in academe, politics, and the media didn’t agree. What really set off the critics, however, was Thomas’s claim that progressivism had helped pave the way for Hitler, … Read more

MACDONALD: Is Parading Your Sexuality Around Gross?

Is parading your sexuality around gross? It’s inappropriate and bad manners; so is Pride Month Gross? It is. As Nate Jackson notes at Patriot Post, When you strip away all the high-minded garbage about diversity, equity, and inclusion, about “seeing” people and making them feel accepted, about how “love wins,” about making some kind of “identity” … Read more

CARDELLO: Transgender Individuals Need to Get Real

I admit I have a difficult time discussing the transgender subject because I do not believe in the concept, which makes all my other reasons moot. I do not understand the terminology and, therefore, the arguments. Non-binary and bisexual shut me down because I do not feel confident discussing, let alone debating, these terms created … Read more

Homo Marxian Marxism Declared goals of communism

EWING: Don’t fall for the Marxist “Paradise.”

MACDONALD: A Great Idea With No Hope of Success

Term limits are not a new notion. Career politicians are, without a doubt, the worst possible outcome. In fact, I’ve said more than once that paying them is a mistake. Every time a legislature tries to give itself a raise, or more benefits, or any income at all, my advice is no. New Hampshire pays … Read more

MACDONALD: What’s More “Racist”?

Karmelo Anthony admitted to stabbing Austin Metcalf to death (“I’m not alleged; I did it”), and people are outraged that he’s going to jail for that. The self-defense “defense” didn’t hold up. Death by stabbing after being pushed is considered excessive use of force. As in, couldn’t you have stabbed him someplace else? Or, how … Read more

MACDONALD: Non-Lethal Weapon Ban Upheld

Not to beat a dead horse, but the “government” has no obligation to protect you. None. No matter what the proglodytes say about public safety, no one has to protect you. Heck, they don’t even have to figure out who attacked or killed you. There’s no right to either, but they don’t tell you that … Read more

Natelson: The Run-up to the Declaration of Independence

In the years before 1763, the British Empire—although in theory a unified entity—was really a federation. The central government in London controlled foreign affairs and the imperial post office. It also regulated trade with foreign countries and among units of the empire. But otherwise, the 13 future American states were largely self-governing. In each, the … Read more
