On XY in XX’s Sports, Whoopi G. Opens Her Mouth—and Removes All Doubt

By Selwyn Duke

“It’s better to remain silent and be thought a fool,” goes the amusing saying, “than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.” Despite this well known warning, there nonetheless is a show that specializes in removing such doubt—it’s called The View. A case in point is a recent episode in which co-host Caryn Johnson (aka Whoopi Goldberg) essentially claimed that people opposed to having female-identifying men in women’s sports are ignorant. She further defended the MUSS (Made-up Sexual Status, aka “transgender”) agenda with the now quite stale argument that “God doesn’t make mistakes.”

Now, while I don’t blame God, it could occur to one that if mistakes didn’t somehow manifest themselves in the human population, how could you explain Whoopi’s reasoning ability?

Moreover, Goldberg’s theory does not support her MUSS agenda but refutes it. For if all is ordained by God and is thus without flaw, then no one could possibly “be born in the wrong body,” right?  (Not to mention that babies afflicted with spina bifida must not actually exist. Well, darn it, the fake news sure fooled me there!)

Wokeness Lives: A “Trans-turtle” Sits on Mental Health Board — and Other PC Madness

By Selwyn Duke

“Woke is dead,” declared the New York Post December 30. And, my, that would’ve been a fine Christmas present. Unfortunately, while an election changes who’s at the USS Government’s helm, as with all large ships, it can take ages to turn about. (Hence the Titanic’s inability to avoid the iceberg.) What’s more, that’s just the ship of state. But politics is downstream from culture, not the other way around. And in our culture, wokeness — that killer of souls and civilizations — may, it’s true, now have the sniffles. Yet it’s still alive and all too well.

Trump Must Scrap Discriminatory, Anti-white Obama/Biden School Discipline Policies, Says Parents Group

By Selwyn Duke

White students can be suspended and expelled from school at higher rates than Asian-descent students, and they are. Yet no one calls it discriminatory; in fact, almost nobody even mentions it.

Boys can be suspended and expelled from school at higher rates than girls, and they are. Yet no one calls it discriminatory; in fact, almost nobody even mentions it.

When black and Hispanic students are suspended and expelled from school at higher rates than white students, however, it’s a different story. Then not only is it called discriminatory, but the government will pressure schools to “equalize” the numbers. Yet as Professor Thomas Sowell put it in 2014, “Unless you believe that black boys cannot possibly be misbehaving more often than Asian American girls, what does this political numbers game accomplish?”

The answer: the implementation of social engineering.

Tucker Carlson: “Shut Down All Immigration” for 30 Years – Till Unity Is Restored

By Selwyn Duke

While touting the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 on the Senate floor, the late Senator Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) pushed a number of selling points. Among other things, he said that

• our cities would “not be flooded with a million immigrants annually”;
• “the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset”; and
• the bill would “not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area.”

Interestingly, it’s not just that these predictions were wrong.

It’s that they turned out to be the precise opposite of the truth.

What’s more, foreign-born people in the United States now number 53.3 million and are 15.8 percent of our population. Both figures are new record highs.

And, of course, there’s a reason automated telephone services now render the message, “Press 1 for English.” It’s called balkanization.

Yet while we do hear much talk about ending illegal migration, there’s almost none about ending the main cause of the balkanization: legal immigration.

Bernie Sanders Rally Features Vulgar Anti-Christian Song Portraying God as Sexual Predator

By Selwyn Duke

Conservative partisans online will sometimes, waxing pejorative, call our major liberal political party the “Demoncrats.” Many would assume they’re just speaking loosely, too. Yet Senator Bernie Sanders, the Vermont Independent who caucuses with the Democrats, has now given the critics more ammunition to make their case.

That is, on Friday, Sanders held a rally featuring a song portraying God as a sexual predator who assaults people. Profoundly vulgar, blasphemous, and anti-Christian, it included lyrics such as “Does your god have a big fat d***?”

Without God, There is No TRUE Respect for Human Life

By Selwyn Duke

Since my title is bound to inspire criticism that I’m a “God botherer,” I’ll preface what follows by stating that I wasn’t always the halo-adorned, floating-in-the-ether desert mystic (without the sand or heat) you behold today. I wasn’t raised with faith, and as a 12-year-old was an agnostic who’d say, “I’d never believe or disbelieve in anything there’s no proof of.” Later on I’d be rather dismissive of theists, actually, viewing them as God botherers myself, though we didn’t have that term or as many Richard Dawkins-like secularist warriors back then. I suppose we were, relatively speaking, handicapped in our exercise of supercilious anti-theism.

But that has changed — and I’ve changed. I long ago could’ve moved on to supercilious pro-theism; only, my faith instructs that Pride is the father of all sin, Humility is a virtue and warns that “he who exalts himself will be humbled.” The realization I’ll expound upon today further explains why I’ve changed, and I mention my spiritual evolution not because I’m narcissistic (though that isn’t to say I’m not!) but because maybe, just perhaps, a few non-believers will consider what follows more seriously knowing it doesn’t come from someone “raised to think that way.”

New Sentencing Rules Could Give White Brits Longer Sentences Than “Minorities” for SAME Crimes

By Selwyn Duke

In the United States, DEI has received pushback, and many hope DEI will DIE. In Britain, though, the phenomenon may be alive and well and poised to intensify what’s already a two-tiered justice system. A case in point is new sentencing guidelines that would give Muslims and other “minorities” shorter sentences than whites for the same crimes.

Be Like Sweden? Actually, America Beats Europe — Hands Down

By Selwyn Duke

“There oughta be a law!” goes the old frustration-born refrain. Or if not a law, maybe another regulation or mandate — one making us, perhaps, more like Europe. After all, they have “free” healthcare, maternity leave, better quality of life, and more vacation time. In a nutshell, “Europe is better,” as multimillionaire director Oliver Stone has put it.

But not so fast, says investigative reporter John Stossel. In fact, while this or that economically hobbled nation may sometimes be called “the sick man of Europe,” the reality is now different.

The sick man is Europe.

Trump’s Congressional Address Polls Bigly While Dems Flail and Fail

Is it time to retire the donkey and make an angry old man waving a cane the Democratic Party’s new symbol? Such a display, of course, was precisely what got Representative Al Green (D-Texas) expelled from President Donald Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday. It well reflects the Democrats’ general antics last night, too, behavior which went over like a lead balloon.

Meanwhile, Trump soared like an eagle, with most Americans giving his speech a resounding thumbs-up.

Narco State Mexico Aims to Wipe Out Our 2nd Amendment With Bizarre Lawsuit

By Selwyn Duke

What’s the very definition of chutzpah? Try the following on for size.

Narco state Mexico is suing American firearms manufacturers for $10 billion — over it’s own cartel violence.

That’s right, the land long known for banditos, where the police and criminals may be one and the same (a man I knew of traveled to Mexico and was mugged by the cops), has a government that’s trying to put our gun manufacturers out of business instead of its own violent drug kingpins.
