However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention decided to #Resist and move forward with planned struggle sessions for its employees.
Everyone has been focused for the past two days on the story in The Atlantic, attributed to anonymous sources, about things Trump supposedly said about troops two years ago, something so far that every person who has gone on record has denied. While you were focused on that Crisis News Cycle,...
On Saturday, I wrote about the Hollyweird Post Office freak out about the USPS replacing some mailboxes in Oregon. The conspiracy theory apparently goes that President Trump is trying to “steal” the election by removing—and then replacing—mailboxes in Oregon. Or something.
I first heard of Critical Race Theory back in 2012 from Andrew Breitbart, and like all decent, law-abiding, fair-minded, non-racist Americans, I was appalled by it. As Breitbart warned at the time, this then-radical Marxism-based divisive, destructive theory is being mainstreamed. It has moved out of our universities and into our...
This is another example of progressive politics eclipsing the pursuit of scholarship.

For anyone not in the know, a number of reporters at the New York Times are freaking out because the paper published an op-ed by Republican Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas.
This is the consequence of campus social justice warriors entering the workforce.
For the left, this is more important than the subject being studied. Also note that the main demand is control over hiring.

The “progressive stack” is a method to order speakers and participants by race and gender along a “social justice” hierarchy. Women “of color” come first, men “of color” next, then white women, and at the back of the line, white men.

We’re living in a very dangerous time.
Several things are coming together that pose a serious threat to the liberty of anyone who is right-of-center.
While there are many factors at work, I’ve been focused in recent days on three: (1) Antifa becoming a part of the anti-Trump Resistance; (2) politically-motivated denial of...
