Pathological Hypocrisy
As discussed by Dave Rubin in a recent podcast, Washington D. C. Council Member Brianne Nadeau is livid that the governors of both Texas and Arizona have seen fit to flood the streets of her city with illegal aliens.

California high school teacher Marta Shaffer has made it clear in her Tik Tok posts that she considers the imposition of “proper” English grammar on her students to be but an aspect of White Supremacy. “I try to undermine that B.S. in my classroom as much as I can,” she states with pride.

Oh Canada!!!!!
On a train early one morning in the summer of 2022, a Calgary man on his way to work was the victim of a random and utterly unprovoked attack by a fellow passenger who attempted to slash his throat. The man survived, his doctors saying he was but one tenth of an inch away from …
The Cancer of Environmental Fanaticism
Larry Summers is an economist who held positions in both the Clinton and Obama administrations. Certainly no “conservative,” he nevertheless seems committed to a rational as opposed to slavishly ideological perspective.
