A Teen Schools Professor on Why White Boys Are Becoming “Alt-right” (aka Redpilled?)

By Selwyn Duke

In 2020, voters aged 18 to 29 supported Joe Biden over President Trump by a wide margin, 61 percent to 36 percent. Yet there was one outlier subset among this group: young white men.

They supported Trump.

Striking this is when considering that other subsets, including young white women, backed Biden by robust margins ranging from, percentage-wise, 86-10 to 55-42. Adding yet more perspective, in 2020, news site Insider quoted an expert as saying that young white men and women were really “far apart” in voting — about 20 percentage points.

“Women and men of color are not showing that kind of departure from each other,” the expert added. So what’s going on?

SECESSION! Texas GOP Is Talking About it. Is it Legal?

By Selwyn Duke

These United States rose above colony status by, essentially, seceding from Britain. Texas became one of these United States a decade after seceding from Mexico. Now Texas State Republican Convention members are talking again about the possibility of seceding — from the United States.

Critics, of course, say secession would be illegal. The Texas Tribune, for example, writes in a subtitle that the “Civil War established that a state cannot secede.” But do wars establish anything from a legitimately legal standpoint? Only if you believe that “might makes right.”

As to the Texas GOP’s action, its “State Republican Convention adopted a platform urging the Legislature to put a referendum before the people of Texas in November 2023 ‘to determine whether or not the State of Texas should reassert its status as an independent nation,’” the Tribune reports. The Texas paper is clear about its position on this, too: “No, Texas can’t legally secede from the U.S., despite popular myth,” its title reads.

In thus contending, these critics generally cite things such as a legal case following the War between the States. To wit: “In 1868's Texas v. White decision, the Court said leaving the Union can happen only through one of two ways: ‘revolution’ or ‘consent of the States,’” as Newsweek relates.

Of course, courts don’t make law anymore than wars do — they render opinion.

Babylon Bee: "Science Tests Positive For COVID"

WORLD—The world is in disbelief today upon hearing the news that Dr. Fauci, also known as the living embodiment of SCIENCE itself, has come down with COVID.

"How could this happen? What if SCIENCE dies? We'll be lost! LOST WITHOUT SCIENCE!" cried Brian Stelter on CNN. "What does this mean? Is Fauci—blessings upon him—merely a human? I don't know what's true anymore!" Brian then curled up on the couch to have a good cry and watch A Christmas Kiss 2 on the Hallmark Channel.

Babylon Bee Video: "Spelling Bee Contestant Asks the Definition of 'Woman'"

This is really, really clever. It's no wonder leftists hate the Babylon Bee. They couldn't be that funny if they ate one serving of fish and doubled their IQs.

Drag Queen Comes Clean: Keep Kids AWAY From Drag Shows, He Says

By Selwyn Duke

Boy, does this drag queen have a story — and not an hour, either. Billy, who goes by the name Kitty Demure when performing and is a self-professed “conservative drag queen,” has a warning for the world:

Keep your kids away from drag events.

They’re akin to having, he says, “a stripper or a porn star influence your children.”

To be clear, the drag queen phenomenon is not healthy, either for those involved or a wider society that rubber stamps it. This may be more obvious now to some with efforts made to indoctrinate children through “Drag Queen Story Hours,” events that are sometimes taxpayer funded. And the characteristic brokenness of drag queens themselves is evidenced by their apparent zeal for inuring innocent children to their deviance.

Yet this is why it’s noteworthy that Bill, a member of the #WalkAway movement, has inveighed against this phenomenon.

Why Bill Maher Can’t Kick His Democrat Party Addiction

By Selwyn Duke

Comedian-cum-commentator Bill Maher has of late been making some new friends and enemies and raising many an eyebrow. At issue are his Real Time monologues in which he has taken his “side,” the Left, to task for “woke” insanity ranging from canceling people over innocent quips to convincing children they can be the opposite sex to whiny “millennial” entitlement. It reminds many of the #WalkAway movement and of billionaire industrialist Elon Musk’s recent resolution to vote Republican. Nonetheless, Maher never actually becomes “red pilled”; one way or another, he makes clear he’s firmly on the Democrat plantation. There’s a good reason for this, too — a psychological reason.

RECORD Set: More Americans Than Ever Say U.S. Has “Poor” Moral Values

By Selwyn Duke

A new study finds that a record number of Americans say “moral values” in the United States are “poor” and getting worse. The study makes clear as well, however, that Americans also don’t agree on what constitutes “moral values” and generally don’t know what “morality” is.

Biden’s Daughter’s Diary Includes More Evidence Joe Is a Child Sex Abuser

By Selwyn Duke

“I remember having sex with friends @ a young age; showers w/ my dad (probably not appropriate).” So wrote Joe Biden’s youngest daughter, Ashley, in her diary in a January 2019 entry, outlining how she believes she was sexualized during her tender years. The explosive revelation, published Thursday by British paper Daily Mail, explains why the FBI raided two journalists’ homes shock-and-awe style in an effort to recover the diary — even though such a task isn’t the bureau’s legitimate domain and despite Ashley’s representatives’ refusal to acknowledge the book was hers.

The information also aligns with behavior Joe Biden has exhibited — inappropriately touching young girls on camera — and charges leveled against him, which include an allegation of penetrative sexual assault.

Golf’s Civil War: Does the Reaction to New Saudi LIV Tour Reflect Hypocrisy?

By Selwyn Duke

Golf may be a “good walk spoiled,” as the apocryphal quip goes (so I use a cart), but not when you’re getting $200 million for the stroll. That’s precisely the amount of money golfer Phil Mickelson is reportedly being paid, mind you, to participate in the LIV Golf Invitational Series. A Saudi-backed venture, LIV’s big-oil-money seduction of some of the sport’s marquee names has made golf conversation a good talk spoiled, sparking an intra-game civil war.

Mickelson, 51, is joined on the LIV by former number one players Dustin Johnson, who reportedly landed $125 million; and Greg Norman, who at 67 is commanding $50 million to be the tour’s CEO; along with a number of lesser lights, many in the twilight of their careers.

The PGA (Professional Golfer’s Association) Tour — the world’s premier golf stage — is none too pleased
