By Selwyn Duke

We got into some deep issues. My appearance begins at 20:48.

Globalists Cheer: Only 16 Percent of Gen Z Is Proud to Live in U.S., Poll Shows

By Selwyn Duke

When we say someone doesn’t take pride in his appearance or home, we mean he doesn’t take care of it. Is it any different when a person doesn’t take pride in being American?

This is an important question to ponder given a recent poll’s finding that only 36 percent of millennials — and a mere 16 percent of Gen Z adults (18-25) — are “proud to live in the United States.”

National pride has, in fact, been declining with each succeeding generation in a phenomenon that, as commentator Steve McCann puts it, means “America’s future is bleak.” If you’re a globalist aiming to breed “citizens of the world,” however, you’ll think our future is bright.

Is Ron DeSantis Banning “Black History” or Bringing Back History?

By Selwyn Duke

“The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history,” noted 1984 author George Orwell. All’s not well, too, because this is precisely what’s happening today — a point on which both the Right and the Left agree.

Consider a major story in the news: the rejection of the College Board’s Advanced Placement African American Studies (APAAS) course by appointees of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Liberal DeSantis opponents might say he’s attempting to obliterate black students’ understanding of their history, while the governor’s co-ideologists will say he’s trying to prevent the obliteration of all students’ understanding of their history.

For sure, getting history right matters, and the APAAS fails miserably in this regard....

The Recycling Lie That’s Hurting Our Economy and Environment

By Selwyn Duke

Many millions of Americans dutifully sort their trash, believing that recycling saves the environment and facilitates sustainability. But what if this greentopian ritual not only doesn’t help the Earth, but actually harms it and the economy to boot?

Recycling most plastic, for example, would be a fool’s errand and therefore isn’t done, as even the environmentalist organization Greenpeace admits. What’s more, much “recycled” plastic has in the past been shipped overseas — and then dumped into the ocean.

Kamala Cancels God and Life in Declaration of Independence

By Selwyn Duke

Forgetting the Declaration of Independence’s words while campaigning in 2020, Joe Biden famously said that all “men and women [sic] created by — you know, you know, the thing.” Now Kamala Harris has quoted the Declaration, too, and perhaps knows the “thing” but doesn’t want to say the thing.

That is, while giving a Sunday speech in Tallahassee, Florida, marking the 50th anniversary of the now-overturned, unconstitutional Roe v. Wade opinion, Harris cited the rights mentioned in the founding document but omitted the very first one: life.

Moreover, while she did say that we are “endowed” with certain rights, she neglected to mention the endower: God. And many find this just too convenient to have been a Biden dotard moment, as mentioning a right to life and the Creator of life wouldn’t exactly have buttressed the pro-prenatal infanticide appeal she was issuing.

This Should End Well: Harley-Davidson Vows to Go All-electric

By Selwyn Duke

A 300-pound, hairy wrestler in a pink tutu; ice cream and bacon; doughnuts and seafood. While certain things just don’t go together, all three preceding combinations may work better than what has just been called inevitable: Harley Davidson’s entire line of motorcycles going electric.

This was proclaimed the future of the storied motorcycle brand by none other than its CEO, Jochen Zeitz.

Post Dobbs, the Abortion Fight Marches On at March for Life

By Selwyn Duke

“The next phase now begins.” So said House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) while speaking to attendees at the March for Life (MfL), which took place on Friday in Washington, D.C. Instituted in 1974 to protest prenatal infanticide after the ’73 Roe v. Wade opinion, this year’s event was the first held since that unconstitutional decision was overturned last June. The MfL reflected this new climate, too, in theme and spirit.

Was the Air Travel “Ground Stop” the Work of Ransomware Hackers?

By Selwyn Duke

Last Wednesday, January 11, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) halted all United States domestic air travel due to the “failure” of its Notice To Air Missions (NOTAM) system the evening before. It was big news not just because of the profound inconvenience, but because it was NOTAM’s first ever failure and only the second time in history that a “ground stop” was implemented on all U.S. air travel, the first being on 9/11. Yet the news perhaps should have been even bigger still because of a very odd coincidence:

Just hours after the FAA’s ground stop, Canada’s NOTAM system also experienced an outage.

The FAA claimed this past Thursday that its problems were caused when an unnamed contractor “unintentionally deleted files.” But is this really the explanation?
