Douglas Murray is, like myself, a staunch defender of Western Civilization, as the title of his 2022 book “The War on the West” clearly implies. This of course does not mean we agree on everything. On May 21, The Free Press published a piece by Murray celebrating the amazing zest for life of the 19th …

No Room for Fox in Canada’s “Democracy”
On April 4, Egale Canada, a Toronto based LGBTQ advocacy group, published an open letter on its website accusing Tucker Carlson of inciting hatred against the Gay/Trans community. Its purpose was to get the CRTC, the agency responsible for regulating telecommunications in Canada, to ban Fox News from all Canadian cable television packages. On Mar. …
What? A Socialist Dystopia?
The New York Times International section of April 22-23, contained an article entitled “Venezuela’s Unequal Socialism.” Citing the country’s many economic problems, its basic thesis was as follows: “Venezuela is increasingly a country of haves and have-nots, and one of the world’s most unequal societies….” Simple, unequivocal fact: Our species will always contain individuals willing …
Socrates, Kierkegaard, Sartre, Biden…..
As reported by The Blaze on May 13, Joe Biden recently addressed the students of the historically Black Howard University in Washington D.C.. Pandering to the assumed biases of his audience, he declared that White Supremacy was the most dangerous threat to America’s Democracy.

Systemic Insanity!
I have before me several hundred index cards each referencing an example of the Leftist lunacy that has come to dominate our era.

Is there a Vaccine for Hypocrisy?
I don’t understand. Both Donald Trump’s insistence on building a wall along the Mexican border as well as his invocation of Title 42, were widely denounced by the Left as aggressively racist in intent. A response to the outbreak of the Covid pandemic, Title 42 gave border authorities the right to simply return asylum seekers …
Propagandists posing as Journalists
While often writing for the Left-leaning Toronto Star, Susan Delacourt nevertheless seems to be somewhat objective in her views, frequently bashing aspects of both the major political parties in this country. Yet a recent opinion piece in the Star led me to wonder if she was not in fact trying to appear neutral while not …
Hmm, Lori is sounding very “conservative.”
There has not been a Republican mayor of Chicago since 1931 [William Hale Thompson]. In that city’s recent election, Lori Lightfoot became the first incumbent seeking re-election to suffer defeat in over 30 years. I found her assertion, shortly after her elimination in Feb., that she had lost because she was Black, Female and Gay, …

The Amazing Yeonmi Park
Having learned of Yeonmi Park via Bari Weiss’ Free Press a couple of weeks ago, I was eager to relate her story, but my computer crashed and I was forced into silence. Back on line now, I’m sure you will find her as inspiring as have I. Born in North Korea in 1993, her childhood …
