UK PM Keir Starmer and his Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood have announced a new program to tackle the greatest threat to women in the United Kingdom. English schoolboys. The new program announced by PM Starmer and Secretary Mahmood will train teachers to “spot early signs of misogyny in boys”. Boys who are flagged for misogyny will be directed to special classes on the dangers of ‘toxic masculinity’ and maleness. Rather than deal with the real problem, the Starmer government and Home Secretary Mahmood have decided, in the words of the BBC headline, “Schoolboys to be target of UK’s violence against women strategy.” This comes even as the country is reeling after a video showed two Afghan Muslim migrant refugees dragging away a 15-year-old girl into the bushes while she pleads for help and then raping her. But these are not the ‘schoolboys’ that Starmer and Mahmood are going to war against. So the authorities did their best to cover up the horrifying assault, falsely implying that the two...

SEIU, the massively powerful and radical health care union, claims that California faces a ‘healthcare collapse’ due to what it calls ‘federal funding cuts’ and only an ’emergency’ 5% tax on the total net worth of anyone with over $1 billion in assets will save the state’s health care. There are no actual ‘cuts’, what SEIU and much of California’s Democrat machine falsely describes as cuts is actually MediCal (California’s name for Medicaid) getting work requirements for healthy adults and paperwork requirements expected to force illegal aliens off MediCal. Gov. Gavin Newsom’s efforts to provide free health care to illegal aliens is what actually endangered the state’s health care funding. The only people losing MediCal are the people who shouldn’t have it in the first place. California Democrats are however too beholden to SEIU and its rival the California Nurses Association to graciously accept the much needed reforms. Instead, SEIU is lobbying to get its ‘California Billionaire Tax ...

“Let Gaza live,” a mob of anti-Israel protesters screamed, brandishing signs falsely accusing the Jewish State of “ethnic cleansing”, “starving Gaza” and genocide while illegally blocking traffic outside the Israeli consulate in Midtown Manhattan. The only thing more disgusting than the ugly spectacle, which had been timed around a Hamas famine propaganda campaign over the summer, was that one of the hate groups behind the anti-Israel protest, which ended in arrests, was funded by proceeds from Schindler’s List. When Steven Spielberg created the Righteous Persons Foundation with some of the profits from Schindler’s List, he wanted to educate people about the Holocaust and build up Jewish life in America. “I could not accept any money from ‘Schindler’s List’ — if it even made any money. It was blood money, and needed to be put back into the Jewish community.” “My parents didn’t keep kosher and we mainly observed all the holidays when my grandparents stayed with us,” the filmmaker said ...

In 1965, Ronald McKinley Everett changed his name to Maulana Karenga, in 1966, he invented the fictional holiday of Kwanzaa, in 1969, members of his US black nationalist organization got into a gunfight with Black Panthers at UCLA, in 1971, he was arrested for torturing two women, and in 1989, he was hired as the chair of the black studies department at a California State University college where he currently teaches on subjects such as “the socio-ethical thought of Malcolm X” and “Ancient Egyptian Maatian Ethics” (after the goddess Maat). The story of Kwanzaa and Karenga is a small part of the larger story of how California’s public colleges, its UC (University of California) and CSU (California State University) systems, incubated, financed and inflicted some of the worst racial political extremism on America. When Chancellor Charles Young (later the head of the Qatar Foundation) took office, UCLA had a 12% minority population. Young, like many radical administrators, was on a missio...

  What does the future hold? Let's turn back the clock to the end of a year over a century ago.  Posting this article has become an annual tradition ever since the grim end of 2012. It's a reminder that the end of each year ushers in unknowns, but also opportunities for heroism. History does not stand still, and we should never assume that we know how it will come out. The next year  sweeps around the earth like the hand of a clock, from Australia to Europe and across the great stretch of the Atlantic it rides the darkness to America. And then around and around again, each passing day marking another sweep of the hours. While the year makes its first pass around the world, even if it doesn't feel like there is much to celebrate, let us leave it behind, open a door in time and step back to another year, a century past. December 31, 1912. The crowds are large, the men wear hats, and the word 'gay' means happy. Liquor is harder to come by because the end of the year ha...

 Islamic terrorism is the outcry of the oppressed, apologists tell us. If the perpetrators only had access to more advanced weapons, they wouldn’t feel the need to massacre civilians with everything from machetes to rockets. Terrorism is a local phenomenon, not a global one. Jihadist terrorism only grabs our attention when it occurs on a large scale, like 9/11 or Oct 7, and then its allies, apologists and appeasers quickly redirect attention by indicting the response to the attacks as ‘oppression’, faking atrocities, complaining about ‘Islamophobia’ and a police state, and quibbling over legalisms until they have successfully obscured the original atrocity. Meanwhile the smaller scale terror plots and attacks that follow are swept under the rug. Last year however France’s Fondapol think tank, a somewhat conservative group, issued a report chronicling 45 years of Islamic terrorism around the world with an estimated 249,941 victims. The killing of nearly a quarter million people is ...

In the 1990s, Captain Michael Cronin, a Navy pilot who had been captured and tortured in Vietnam, began to lobby for a bill that would hold his Vietnamese torturers accountable. The ‘War Crimes Act’ was passed and Cronin died in 2020 without his torturers facing justice. The bill, originally sold as a way to hold torturers of Americans accountable, did nothing to stop abuses of American prisoners, either by Communist or Islamist foes. Its criminalization of Geneva Conviction violations was never going to matter to our enemies, instead it became a weapon used by them, and their radical allies in the United States, against our troops. Republican House and Senate majorities allowed the ‘War Crimes Act’ to sail through even though it had been loaded with the biggest poison pill of all, applying its provisions to American soldiers, and President Bill Clinton, a former anti-war protester, gleefully signed it into law. The ‘War Crimes Act of 1996’ was the fever dream wishlist of every anti-Vi...

On July 13, 2023, Mohamad Barakat, a Syrian refugee, packed up several rifles and handguns 1,800 rounds of ammo, a hand grenade, and a car filled with gas cans on the way to carry out an Islamic terrorist attack at Fargo’s Downtown Street fair aiming to kill thousands of Americans. Instead the terror refugee got into a confrontation with police and died in an exchange of fire. North Dakota Attorney General Drew Wrigley insisted that there was ‘no evidence of political, racial or religious motivation’. “At this point it seems [no] more notable that he’s Muslim than I’m Lutheran,” he bafflingly argued. He also dismissed footage of Mohamad holding a Koran. “I can’t discern, from the evidence that we have, any other motivation,” he claimed. A year before, Fargo had gotten its first Somali Muslim mayoral candidate, the head of a social justice group, who had been photographed meeting with top state officials. And no one was looking to offend the state’s growing Muslim population who were wi...
