Many U.S. Mainstream Media Join Brazilian Socialists to Try to Destroy Elon Musk’s X

By Selwyn Duke

The “world is not obliged to put up with [Elon] Musk’s extreme right-wing anything goes just because he is rich.” So said Brazilian president and ex-convict Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva recently, referencing his nation’s attack on Musk’s X social media platform.

Only, he didn’t mention that “anything goes” doesn’t mean killing and stealing (which governments do frequently).

Rather, that’s what Lula da Silva calls allowing free speech and open debate: “anything goes.” Moreover, allowing “left-wing anything goes” from rich people and entities is apparently okay. Apropos to this, there’s no such thing as a big media outlet that isn’t “rich.”

In fact, 90 percent of our media is controlled by just six enormous conglomerates.

Teacher Who Wouldn’t be Part of “Trans” Child Abuse of Boy Jailed for THIRD Time

By Selwyn Duke

It’s said that Saint Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland. It appears, however, that he might’ve missed a bunch. That is, if a recent story out of the Emerald Isle is any guide. To wit:

In a testimonial to our upside-down world, an Irish Christian teacher has been imprisoned for the third time. His trespass?

The educator, Enoch Burke, wouldn’t socially facilitate a student’s “gender transition,” as it’s euphemistically called, and then refused to abide by an order from a judge who sided with his school.

Kamala Is Ahead — But Are the Polls Designed to Deceive?

By Selwyn Duke

“They not only changed their formula, to put Hillary ahead [over Donald Trump]. They went back and changed the results,” said late Democratic pollster and strategist Pat Caddell in 2016. “They didn’t tweak their procedure — they cooked it.” Caddell wasn’t talking about some obscure news organization, either, when making his comments. He was speaking of Reuters, the world’s second-largest media company.

Caddell would go on to say that he’d never in his life seen a journalistic organization “do something so dishonest.” And considering that Reuters has also been ranked the “second most trusted news brand” raises a question.

What would Caddell say about today’s polls showing Kamala Harris leading Trump in the 2024 presidential race? Should we trust them? Note here that not long ago, Harris was one of American history’s most unpopular vice presidents.

AP: Noncitizen Voting Is “Rare” — So Let’s Just Ignore It

By Selwyn Duke

Noncitizen participation in U.S. elections, political science professors Jesse Richman and David Earnest found in a 2014 study, “has been large enough to change meaningful election outcomes.” This conclusion ought to raise eyebrows and red flags. But not, apparently, at the Associated Press. In fact, wrote the outlet just yesterday, “Illegal voting by noncitizens is rare.” “Yet,” it complains, “Republicans are making it a major issue this election.”

My, coming to mind here could be a twist on what the Left says about abortion. Does AP want noncitizen voting to be safe, illegal, and rare?

From Woke to Awakened — RFK Jr.’s Running Mate: The Media Lied to Me About MAGA

By Selwyn Duke

Media “bias aids Democratic candidates by about 8 to 10 percentage points in a typical election,” informed Professor Tim Groseclose in his 2011 book Left Turn. As to this bias’ reality, there’s a story currently in the news that illustrates it well. To wit:

Nicole Shanahan, billionaire, entrepreneur, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s running mate, just made a startling confession. “I was completely misinformed about what MAGA is,” she admitted in a recent interview.

And it was the media that misinformed her.

(Now, who, again, is spreading “misinformation”?)

Pandering to Muslims, U.K. Leftists Are Suppressing Another Part of British Culture

By Selwyn Duke

Are you a Briton who’s upset that your government is quashing free speech and arresting people for social-media posts? If so, well, don’t take for granted that you’ll be able to drink your woes away. Because now the speech-squelching Labour Party, the equivalent of U.S. Democrats, has another bright idea.

They want to tamp down the age-old tradition of English pub culture.

Oh, this isn’t over concern about health or drunkenness-associated problems. Rather, they’re reportedly doing it for a thoroughly modern(ist) reason: There are many Muslims in Britain now.

And Muslims don’t like alcohol.

Who Are More Honest, Democrats or Republicans? Their Professions Tell the Tale

By Selwyn Duke

“There is a level of adherence to rules on the other side [Republicans] that only when you’re at the very highest level, do you get over.” The preceding was uttered by a Democratic operative named Scott Foval while caught on hidden video in 2016. Foval knows of what he speaks, too — his business is rule-breaking (vote fraud).

But are Republicans really more honest than Democrats? Well, the two groups’ characteristic professions may provide some insight.

The “Culture Wars” Are Actually a War for Civilization

By Selwyn Duke

“Are Republicans losing the culture wars?” left-wing Politico asked recently. A better question is, though: Are we, as Americans, losing the war for our civilization?

Moreover, how do we define “winning”? If a party triumphs politically by promising to rain down toxins upon us that most people mistake for manna from Heaven, who, if anyone, has won anything?

Law School Dean: Time to Scrap Our “Flawed” Constitution and “Rewrite It”

By Selwyn Duke

The “Left hates the Constitution and constitutionalism,” I wrote in 2018. And there’s a simple reason for this: “The Constitution is a conservative document.”

Contrary to what most think, “conservative” above only means that the document serves to maintain a status quo. It limits the change the government can effect, and the Constitution itself is difficult to alter via the Amendment Process.

People obsessed with “change” don’t like this, however; hence their “living document” rationalization. But sometimes in recent years, just every so often, a Constitution-hater has worn his banners openly and called for the document to be sent to re-education camp.
