Yes, CNN Hates America

  CNN became notorious as the “Clinton News Network” during the 2016 presidential campaign, when the third-place cable news channel was so completely in the tank for the Democrat nominee that their programming was like a 24/7 contribution-in-kind to the DNC. Since CNN’s candidate lost the election, they have spent the past 18 months attempting […]

The Democrat Football League

The Philadelphia Eagles hate America: Less than 24 hours before the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles were set to visit the White House, President Donald Trump rescinded their invitation, citing national anthem protests and boycotts from some team members. . . . “The Philadelphia Eagles Team was invited to the White House,” [Trump] wrote [on […]

Why Don’t ‘Incels’ Go Gay? (And Other Thoughts on ‘Toxic Masculinity’)

  Let me begin kind of a roundabout discussion of several things by starting with this: One of the odd facts about Texas school shooter Dimitrios Pagourtzis was that the 17-year-old wore a heart-shaped bisexual pride pin in one of his Facebook photos. What do we know about him? Two years ago, Pagourtzis had played […]

How to Argue With a Feminist

  Rule One: Never argue with a feminist. This is the only rule you need. There is no point trying to persuade a feminist that she’s wrong. If she were intellectually honest (and thus capable of admitting error) she would not be a feminist. Because feminists never argue in good faith, nothing is to be […]

No, ‘Incel’ Is Not an ‘Ideology’

  After it emerged that Toronto mass murderer Alek Minassian referred to himself as an “incel” (involuntary celibate), my natural instinct was to make a joke: If Canadian guys who can’t get laid are a terrorist threat, there could be millions of them! The guy was a pathetic loser, and I find it impossible to […]

Another ‘Hate Crime’ Hoax

Are fake “hate crimes” now more common than actual hate? Sometimes it seems so, e.g., a recent incident in the Virginia suburbs of D.C.: A 13-year-old Woodbridge area girl is accused of falsely reporting a hate crime to Prince William police. The teen had told police that she was walking home Friday afternoon when a […]

Who Is Murdering Whom?

Newt Gingrich got his facts wrong in an appearance Sunday on Fox News: There are five cities in America that have most of the killings in America, five cities. All five theoretically have gun control. All five cities are a disaster. By the way, those guns are almost all handguns. This is false. There were […]

A Nation of 327,000,000 People

Three hundred twenty-seven million is a large number. Keep that in mind when you see news coverage or commentary that portrays social problems as a “trend” or an “epidemic.” In a nation of 327 million people, it is always easy to find a dozen examples of any phenomenon that a reporter, a politician, or an […]
