The Government Shutdown, Democrat anti-Semites, and a mad, bad media
The government shutdown, anti-Semitism in the Democrat Party, abortion, and a mad, bad media — no matter I busy my day is, I must blog about them. Did you know that a chicken without a head made it into an early edition of Ripley’s Believe It or Not? It’s true. [Read More]

Rashida Tlaib, unpleasant as she is, deserves to be taken seriously
Foul-mouthed, antisemitic Rashida Tlaib is the avatar of an incoming class of Leftist congresswomen that needs to be taken seriously in the realm of ideas. Rashida Tlaib, the Palestinian-identifying woman who got herself elected to the American House of Representatives, gained instant notoriety when she excitedly announced that her single [Read More]

Bookworm Beat 12/20/18 — the border wall edition
I went overboard in this Bookworm Beat, covering the border wall, Syria, Antisemitism, Europe’s fall, science, Michelle and Melania, media bias, and much more. Good walls make good neighbors. Trump did it — he got the House to include $5 billion in the budget bill to build the border wall. [Read More]

Princeton Prof. Kevin Kruse exemplifies academia’s vacuity and arrogance
Tweets between Dean Cain and Princeton Professor Kevin Kruse about debating controversial ideas exemplified academia’s intellectual vacuity and arrogance. My years at Berkeley left me with tremendous disdain for academics — and keep in mind that this disdain set in almost 40 years ago, before the current insanity of identity [Read More]

Bookworm Beat 12/5/18 — the American Left’s fascism
Taking a hard look at the American Left’s fascism (its silencing speech, antisemitism, and moral depravity), with room for some fun and uplifting news too. The Flynn sentencing memo shows collusion. No, I haven’t gone crazy. Instead, I agree with Joel Pollak, who says the memo highlights that the real [Read More]

Bookworm Beat 11/12/18 — the post-election counting edition and open thread
It’s not losing seats that bothers me, it’s the fact that post-election counts and recounts invariably favor Democrats, which is banana republic stuff. Post-election recounts and miscounts and discounts and God alone knows what else. I’m not actually going to blog too much about post-election recounts, despite using them as part [Read More]

KILL THE JEWS – American Jewry’s worst case scenario
Kill the Jews “…This inexcusable need on the part of progressive leftist American Jews to ignore blatant and ever increasing anti-Semitism on the part of Palestinian Arabs and Muslims in general has directly contributed to the leap of anti-Semitic beliefs over the Atlantic from the Middle East to the American [Read More]

Bookworm Beat 9/5/2018 — the insane Leftists edition and open thread
There’s no doubt about it: the dominant thread in this round-up is insane Leftists who are unmoored from reality and want America to fall with them.

“We’ll always have Paris.” No! Paris is dying, along with the rest of Europe.
Thanks to the European decision to invite in the Islamists, not only won’t we always have Paris, we won’t have the rest of Europe either. Europe is dying. Bruce Bawer, a gay American man who moved to Europe only to be mugged by Islamic reality, is a clear-headed thinker and [Read More]

What Antisemitism In Europe and The Campus Have In Common
Antisemitism in Europe and the campus. By Daniel Greenfield Burkay, an unemployed Muslim Turk, wearing a stained white “Miami Beach” shirt attacked three Jewish people in Vienna, Austria.

Trump revoked John Brennan’s security clearance and Proggies went insane — and of course, they went stupid, too. All that and more in this Bookworm Beat.

Jews and how Germany had a short moment under a civilized sun
Germany, both past and present, is an object lesson in the way that treating Jews well allows a country to thrive and treating them badly kills a country. I’ve long said that the most successful countries are those that treat their Jews well. It’s not that Jews work some bizarre [Read More]

Reality shows that Ruth Bader Ginsburg knows nothing about constitutions
Events in South Africa today reveal that the Progressives’ adored Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a moral and constitutional moron, not a brilliant Leftist avatar. Progressives adore Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whom they fondly call “Notorious RBG.” Indeed, in 2015, a book entitled Notorious RBG: The Life and Times [Read More]

Does BYU’s online high school gov class promote an antisemitic canard?
Am I overreacting to think that BYU’s online government class slipped in a gratuitous, classically antisemitic trope about Jews controlling foreign policy? I’ve written before about BYU’s online high school government class and, frankly, didn’t have much nice to say about it. It’s poorly written, poorly structured, and poorly informed. [Read More]

Jews excel at antisemitism, as they do at so many things
A recent attack against Harvey Weinstein in a Jewish publication reminds us that, when it comes to antisemitism, America’s Jews are overachievers. Almost three years ago, I wrote a post entitled Some of America’s ugliest antisemitism comes from young Hollywood Jews (language warning). I wrote after I had watched a [Read More]
