A high school football team is an unlikely flash point for a national crisis, but before the Massapequa Chiefs can take on their traditional rivals in Farmingdale, East Meadow or Westbury, they have to take on a much tougher team with a much bigger roster (but much worse running skills): the New York State Department of Education. The Long Island team ran afoul of a movement by New York Democrats, the worst team in the state which long ago rigged all the games in its favor, to ban Indian team names. After their out-of-state counterparts took out the Cleveland Indians and the Washington Redskins, the New York Democrats have come for the Massapequa Chiefs. The Massapequa Chiefs have been accused of being offensive. But whom are they offending? The Massapequa have disappeared and members of other tribes are speaking for them. All the media could find to object to the high school football team was a local professor from a tribe whose old territory was 400 miles away What’s offensive about ...

The story of the governor, the transvestite and the tax credit began when Gavin Newsom first ran for office and called on the support of the state’s wealthiest and most famous transvestite. “I’m honored to have your vote,” Newsom told Ru Paul. The celebrity millionaire drag queen endorsed Newsom in the governor’s race and praised him for having “changed the course of history for LGBT Americans” and for legalizing drugs. “Legal weed, baby!” The campaign video posted on Newsom’s social media and on the World of Wonder company which produces Ru Paul’s Drag Race raised legal and campaign issues that were never addressed. Those issues have only become more serious after World of Wonder received a $1.7 million film tax credit for a production listed only as ‘Untitled Drag Queen Movie’. California’s notoriously corrupt film tax credit system exploded under Gov. Gavin Newsom. $192 million in film credits were allocated when Newsom ran for office. California currently offers $350 million in fi...

A handful of years after they cheered a president flanked by armed soldiers declaring half the countries to be enemies of the state, liberals are denouncing President Trump as a dangerous authoritarian. The misinformation censors of yesteryear have suddenly discovered that they love free speech and the men who filled D.C. with federal troops worry about the right to protest. This born-again liberalism fools absolutely no one except the fools virtue signaling it. The majority of liberals cast aside liberal values, they learned to deplore meritocracy, fair play, freedom of speech and all differences of opinion that did not serve their radical cause. They became leftists who play the cynical game of viewing dissent as either a ‘threat to democracy’ or the ‘highest form of patriotism’ depending on whether they’re the ones in power or dissenting. That’s not liberalism. It’s a leftist wolf who puts on sheep’s clothing when he’s being hunted. Liberalism means fundamentally distinguishing bet...

In the weeks before David Horowitz’s passing, he wrote an article and finished another book. In and out of the hospital, he would call me on the phone to relay another idea for a series or another article about the Left. When we worked together on an article about the leftist fifth column, he was exhausted and I told him we could work on it next week. There would be time. He sighed skeptically, knowing perhaps what we only know now, but also with a note of relief. I was wrong. He was right. But of all my mistakes, it was the most understandable. David Horowitz first came down with cancer after 9/11. He wrote about that in ‘The End of Time’. He continued fighting cancer and writing about his experiences facing death in ‘A Point in Time: The Search for Redemption in This Life and the Next ‘. He nearly died in 2015 and wrote about that in ‘ You’re Going to Be Dead One Day: A Love Story’ and then collected all three together in ‘Mortality and Faith’ in 2019. David Horowitz fought off ca...

" Who can count the dust of Jacob or number the seed of Israel ." Numbers 23:10 The sun sets above the hills. The siren cries out and on the busy highways that wend among the hills,  the traffic stops ,  the people stop , and a moment of silence comes to a noisy country. Flags fly at half mast, the torch of remembrance is lit, memorial candles are held in shaking hands and the country's own version of the Flanders Field poppy, the Red Everlasting daisy, dubbed Blood of the Maccabees, adorns lapels. And so begins the Yom Hazikaron, Heroes Remembrance Day, the day of remembrance for fallen soldiers and victims of terror-- Israel's Memorial Day. What is a memorial day in a country that has always known war and where remembrance means adding the toll of one year's dead and wounded to the scales of history? A country where war never ends, where the sirens may pause but never stop, where each generation grows up knowing that they will have to fight or flee. To stand wat...

For only $27, you can buy a ‘Tax the Rich’ t-shirt and help an elderly progressive millionaire fly around the country to campaign against the oligarchy from the luxury of a private jet. Sen. Bernie Sanders has been touring the country on his ‘Fighting Oligarchy Tour’ in which the elderly senator and assorted socialist sidekicks like AOC hold rallies in liberal areas to denounce big business…while doing some pretty big business. Earlier this year, Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is 83 years old, filed to run for reelection in 2030 to be able to take office at the age of 89, and hold it until he is well in his mid 90s. Aspiring to spend nearly half a century in the halls of Congress would seem like evidence of oligarchy. But despite having a campaign date in 2030, Bernie quickly shot to the no. 2 spot in current year campaign spending. Over $1 million went to Aisle 518 Strategies, a ‘progressive’ campaign operation created by Tim Tagaris, Bernie’s former senior advisor and digital fundraising d...

When the skies over the Swiss resort of Davos next fill with over 1,000 private jets bearing the elites of the world to discuss its fate, the Teutonic man behind it all may no longer be there. Klaus Martin Schwab, born during WWII to a Nazi factory manager using forced labor to make flamethrowers, is Mr. Globalism. Even those who don’t know his name have seen that face with its cold fish stare through the rimmed eyeglasses looking back at them from under the towering futura font, slim and minimalist, of a solemn address at a World Economic Forum event. “As I enter my 88th year, I have decided to step down from the position of Chair and as a member of the Board of Trustees, with immediate effect,” Klaus announced with dryly punctilious precision, declaring his departure while telling us nothing about why he’s leaving. One reason may be that the WEF is investigating Schwab’s alleged withdrawal of cash from ATMs and use of the WEF to pay for hotel room massages, but the WEF founder has be...

When Muslim terrorists began their latest massacre in Kashmir, they first checked IDs and asked their victims to recite the ‘Kalmas’ one of several Islamic recitations used by Indian Muslims, beginning with, “There is no god but Allah and Mohammed is his messenger.” Those who could not recite the Islamic doctrine were killed. “Are you Muslim? If yes, then recite the Kalma,” victims were told by the Jihadis. “He asked my husband’s name and religion. Then he shot him,” one female survivor testified. Describing the massacre of 26 innocent people, including an American citizen, in a Kashmir meadow as terrorism is misleading. The targets were not selected because they were government officials. They were not screened for their politics. The location was not a strategic target. The only thing that the victims had in common was that they were non-Muslims. This is not terrorism. It’s genocide. Muslim terrorists have followed the same protocol for screening out and exterminating non-Muslims. Du...
