The overwhelming consensus among my Canadian acquaintances is that Donald Trump is so stupid, so arrogant, so remorselessly duplicitous that they could never bring themselves to vote for him. Their fervently held position, to me at least, is rooted in a failure both to understand the sheer stupidity of many of the policies of his …

Hate Speech Pure and Simple
I am no Constitutional scholar but can certainly understand the anger of Democrats with Mitch McConnell’s insistence that the Republicans will replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat on the Supreme Court before this fall’s election, though they refused to allow Barack Obama to do the same as the 2016 election approached. At the same time the …
Another Awakening!
In a video posted this past Wed., former Black NFL superstar Herschel Walker proudly declared “I have finally Woke Up!” Having apparently been sympathetic to the cause of the protesters in America’s streets, he was only recently apprised of Patrisse Cullor’s 2015 interview in which she admitted that she and the other founding women of …
Tyranny?
In July when Donald Trump proposed to send federal agents into Chicago to deal with the violence in that city, Mayor Lori Lightfoot characterized it as the reaction of a tyrant. It was not the protesters’ brazen disrespect for the Rule of Law as well as other people’s property and well-being that was tyrannical, but …
Pandora’s Box
A city manager in Lynwood, California, in the wake of the Compton shootings, posted on Instagram: “Chickens come home to roost.” While Jose Ometeotl insisted that he did not approve of the attempted murder of two innocent L.A. cops, his statement suggested that justice was on the side of their assailant. Dear Leftist Idiots, you …
Morally Bankrupt
This past Friday, Sept. 11, Bill Maher interviewed Jessica Yellin, former C.N.N. White House Corespondent and, one assumes, devout “progressive.” While Maher asked her repeatedly to comment on or condemn the violence presently plaguing several cities in the U.S., Yellin both suggested property damage was necessary for the dissidents to achieve their goals and that …
Biological Reality vs. Ideological Dementia
Given what is happening in the States, we have been focusing on some of the truly inane criteria informing what is considered “racism” today. It is, apparently, “racist” for White people to so much as comment on the beliefs or behavior of others; racist for them to deny that everything they have is the result …

Compassion?
As of mid-summer 2020, over 90,000 criminals had been released from American prisons so as to spare them the threat of Covid contagion. In Washington D.C. on July 4, 11 year old Davon McNeal took a stray bullet to the head as he was on his way to an anti-violence barbecue with his family. Four …
Blexit
It is Candace Owens and not Ibram X. Kendi who is the true anti-racist. While he is fixated on the color of his skin, she is concerned with the efficacy of Principles and Values, whatever their ethnic origin. In a Sept. 6 talk with Ben Shapiro, Candace recalls she was amazed to discover that one …
Selective Racism?
Polls citing the average annual income of individuals of different racial backgrounds tend to be more or less consistent throughout Canada and the States. Asians, and that includes both Orientals as well as those from the Indian sub-continent, top the list, making somewhere between 85 and 90 thousand dollars a year. White people come in …
