  • Megan Rapinoe Raps Sophie Cunningham: Still Wants Men in Women’s Sports

    The obscure comedy Ladybugs features a businessman-turned-coach who, desperate to help his struggling girls’ soccer team, dresses a talented boy as a female and puts him on the roster. At the film’s release, in 1992, this was considered the stuff of fiction — utterly ridiculous.

    Today it’s considered, well, leftist dogma that it should be allowed.

    Enter ex-professional soccer player and current devoted leftist Megan Rapinoe. She’s again agitating in favor of men in women’s sports and against common sense, this time targeting Sophie Cunningham. Cunningham is the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) player who recently made news by opposing the men-in-women’s-sports (i.e., “trans”) phenomenon.

    Now, there’s an irony here. Without sexually segregating sports, Rapinoe wouldn’t have had a career and no one would’ve heard of her. This is not opinion. It isn’t unusual for professional women’s soccer teams to lose to 14-year-old boys. In fact, Rapinoe’s own team, the U.S. National Women’s Team (reigning world champs at the time), lost to the FC Dallas under-15 boys squad 5-2 in 2017. One of Rapinoe’s teammates, Carli Lloyd, made no bones about this, either. “They should beat us,” she said of the lads in 2023. “Bigger, stronger, faster!”

  • Ex-DSA Member: DSA is Now “Controlled by Communists”

    “It’s not a harmless organization,” an ex-Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) member recently said about the DSA. “These people seem perfectly willing to cohabitate with Maoists, Trotskyists and people who have this thrill to violence that’s profoundly troubling…”

    This warning, issued by one Jake Altman, may be a statement of the obvious to many readers. Yet one point will be news. That is, outsiders may consider Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), a DSA member, an organization standard bearer. But you know what she actually is now?

    On the outs with DSA purists.

    AOC isn’t far left enough for their tastes — and they can’t outright endorse her, we hear.

  • Francesca Hong: Will a Mentally Unstable Woman Become Wisconsin’s Next Governor?

    More than 50 percent of young, liberal, white women have been diagnosed with some form of “mental health” problem. This research-born finding — and the fact that psychological diagnoses are now “in” — may help explain something, too.

    That is, one Francesca Hong.

    Hong, in case you haven’t heard, is the Democrats’ presumptive nominee for the Wisconsin governorship. And, no, she’s not a white woman, but plenty of young white women are supporting her. (Approximately 70 percent of women 18-29 hail Hong.) However much she reflects them, too, Hong is, well, quite a piece of work.

    First, she’s a socialist and quite possibly a closet communist (if there’s a difference), as so many “socialists” are. She has the radical left-wing beliefs to prove it, too. But then there’s also this:

  • Hilariously Comical DEI Academic Accused of Plagiarism — Joins a Long List of Fakers

    Many years ago, late economist Walter E. Williams recounted a story about being offered a prestigious Ivy League professorship. A young man at the time, he refused the position. Since he wasn’t qualified on paper, he explained, it would be obvious he was hired simply because of his race. (Williams was black). He did later accept a position at George Mason University — but he issued a warning to the interviewer.

    “If I find out you hired me based on affirmative action,” he essentially said, “I will quit on that day.”

    Unfortunately, however, since such integrity is rare, America — and the wider West — has diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hires everywhere. There’s “civil rights” attorney Ben Crump, who somehow passed the bar exam despite reading at an elementary-school level. There’s also black female ex-professor Kerri Greenidge, who just left Tufts University owing to plagiarism accusations and other trespasses.

    And now there’s yet another DEI scandal involving plagiarism and more, at Britain’s legendary Cambridge University. This one concerns one Jason Arday, who’s described as a “distinguished and highly respected scholar of race, inequality and education.”

  • TV is Too White, Woke Professor Claims — and it Intensifies White Kids’ Racism

    A green roadside sign that says 'WELCOME TO PREJUDICE' in large white letters, with the phrase 'STAY STRONG' below it.

    By Selwyn Duke

    It was less than a year ago that journalist Piers Morgan published his book Woke is Dead. “How Common Sense Triumphed in an Age of Total Madness,” the subtitle reads. If it has triumphed, though, some critics may wonder, why are woke bullets and bombs still raining down?

  • Permit to Pray? Town Clamps Down on Jews’ Worship — SCOTUS to Hear Case

    A road sign featuring two arrows pointing in opposite directions, labeled 'Religion' and 'Atheism', against a blue sky.

    By Selwyn Duke

    There shall be no law “prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” says our First Amendment about religious freedom. State constitutions, including Ohio’s, also have strong protections for exercise of faith. Yet you wouldn’t know it, critics may say, judging from the behavior of University Heights, Ohio. Because according to that municipality’s city fathers, poker night at your home would be okay, as one commentator puts it. But a Jewish prayer group at that home on the same night?

    Well, that’s a different story.

    It’s not a new story, though. In fact, in our country, founded in part on religious freedom, localities have long tried to suppress that freedom. The most notorious example, of course, was the forcible closure of churches during Covid — while liquor stores could remain open.

  • Appraisal Artifice: The Legalized-theft Property-tax Racket

    A man with glasses and a blue argyle vest is enthusiastically surrounded by stacks of money on a table, expressing excitement.

    By Selwyn Duke

    “A man’s home is his castle.” Or, that’s how it’s supposed to be, anyway. Is it really the case, though, when government can breach the castle walls with property-appraisal increases anytime it pleases?

    Whose castle is it when you’re essentially paying rent to the government?

    Whose is it when, if you can’t cough up that rent, your property will be stolen by the state?

  • “Trans” Man Leaves U.S., Fearing Trump; Begs to Return After Being Put in Muslim-heavy Asylum Center

    An illustration featuring male and female gender symbols in pink and blue, respectively, with a scalpel placed between them.

    By Selwyn Duke

    The grass is always meaner on the other side of the fence, could be the moral of this story. A “trans” man flees the United States, claiming he lived in fear with the rise of President Donald Trump. He then travels to Holland, a “tolerant,” recreational-drug-replete, “trans”-friendly land and claims asylum.

    So the Dutch honor his request and place him in an asylum center — with Moroccans, Eritreans, Somalis, Algerians, Syrians, and others. The kicker:

  • That OTHER Jihad: Rubio Warns of Ignored, and Deadly, Terror Network

    By Selwyn Duke

    What’s the greatest terroristic threat we face?

    Is it Islamic jihad?

    Is it “right-wing” terrorism?

    According to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, it’s something too often ignored, winked at, and, sometimes, even encouraged.

    It is, Rubio warned in a speech last week, left-wing terrorism. It’s a growing threat, too, yet pseudo-elite institutions often exhibit a perverse tolerance for it.

  • The Democrats’ Man Problem — and Why They Lust After Women

    A close-up portrait of a man with short hair and a strong facial expression, showing glistening skin under soft lighting.

    By Selwyn Duke

    Here’s a staggering finding: American men’s testosterone levels have dropped one percent or more a year for decades. This means their T levels are now up to 35 percent lower than in 1987.

    Almost as staggering: This reality gets precious little coverage from the (left-wing) legacy media. Why is this? Try the following on for size.

    Researchers at the Claremont Graduate University in Claremont, California, discovered last year that “weakly affiliated Democrats” (WADs) had 19 percent higher testosterone levels than those strongly identifying with the party. The kicker:

    When these WADs were given additional testosterone, there was a “red shift” toward Republicans.
