  • Hypocrisy American Style

    Hypocrisy American Style0

    In her online article “Systemic Hypocrisy,” Judith Bergman looks at those major corporations that use Chinese labor to make their products, or that have ties to China in other ways. These corporations are giving millions of dollars to groups which seek to end racism in the United States – like Black Lives Matter – while

    Hugo Chavez’s Spirit is Alive in 2020 America0

    Venezuela has the world’s highest murder rate because the police there don’t stop murder unless it helps politics. So long as homocide doesn’t threaten the power or wealth of the governing party, murders are largely unsolved and are often committed by the very police who should be preventing them. As Business Insider reports, in Venezuela

  • Don’t Believe the Polls

    Don’t Believe the Polls0

    Have you seen the polls lately? I’m referring to those surveys which the media tout as predictors of how Donald Trump will fare in the November election. If you look at these polls and support the President’s reelection bid, a feeling of doom and gloom has probably set in. If this is how you feel,

    What Will the Future Think of Us?0

    I love reading histories and biographies. Because of my interest in the past, a particular fantasy is pestering me. What if I could return from the grave in fifty years or more, and see what historians of the future might have written of the time in which I have lived, particularly the last 30 years?

    With the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic getting worse in most of the country, a growing number of school districts from San Francisco to Atlanta have determined that a return to daily in-person instruction isn’t yet safe or viable.

    Three Ways Antifa Is Like the Nazis They Condemn0

    When the antifa phenomenon arrived on the scene several years ago, I observed the name of this new movement was rather oxymoronic. Antifa, one college professor claimed, is very postmodern in its mindset, and as such, replaces objective reality with “lived experience.” This relativist mindset, I noted, was very much like the one Benito Mussolini

    How ‘Wokeness’ Is a Product of Marxism1

    “Wokeness” has become the nomenclature for the ideology or mentality of radical leftist activists on college campuses, at protests, and on social media. But wokeness has not been limited to just a handful of activists. It’s becoming a dominant mindset in the American workplace, in both the public and private sectors, as a method to

    Fighting Nature by Abandoning Herd Immunity0

    When I was a kid, I used to love the show “Fraggle Rock.” A creation of “The Muppets’” Jim Henson, it detailed the underground life of the Fraggles. These furry imaginary creatures lived alongside the dutiful Doozers, who quietly built their elaborate, edible constructions. The Doozers built and the Fraggles ate, without any apparent hard

    What Precedent and the Constitution Say About Postponing an Election0

    If President Donald Trump’s goal was to get people talking about his latest tweet, he again succeeded after floating the idea of delaying the November elections. If this was a serious political trial balloon, however, it’s unlikely to have any success. Congress would have to pass, and the president would have to sign, any act
