Democrat Gov. Northam Can KKK Away, but “American Idol” Finalist Is Axed for Picture From When He Was 12

By Selwyn Duke

If you still don’t think there are now at least two standards for “justice” in our country, consider American Idol finalist Caleb Kennedy.

That is, ex-American Idol finalist. 

You see, Kennedy has now had to leave the show because of a three-second video in which he’s seated next to a child wearing a white hood “resembling Ku Klux Klan apparel.”

Not actual KKK wear, I’ll emphasize, but something resembling it.

Oh, the singer was reportedly 12 years old when the video was shot, too. Now his music career may be shot, all due to “cancel culture,” which many leftists swear doesn’t even exist.

They’re half right, too: It sure doesn’t exist for leftists.

Washington Doctor Demands “a Recount” — “of COVID Deaths”

By Selwyn Duke

At Social Security’s birth, it was promised that workers would never be taxed for the program at more than six percent of their income. Today SS takes 12.4 percent. The government had long said there were “only” 11 million illegal aliens in our nation, but academic studies place the actual number at two to three times higher. The Centers for Disease Control had maintained that the risk of contracting the coronavirus outdoors was “less than 10 percent,” but it turns out the agency made a bush-league mistake: The actual number may be less than 0.1 percent.

Even though the above well reflects the government’s track record, there could certainly be an exception to the apparent rule that government numbers are as accurate as a blind archer with vertigo. I’m not aware of one, though. This brings us to the claim that “500,000 Americans have died of COVID.” Is this really a possible first, that elusive exception to the state errancy norm?

Democrats Start the Racial Fire — Then Call Republicans Arsonists

By Selwyn Duke

My father, raised during the Great Depression, once told an interesting story about his childhood. He one day noticed that a couple of men were following him around. It turned out that there’d been a kidnapping threat against him — his father was a physician, making him a target in those desperate times — and the two fellows were government agents assigned to watch him.

Question: Were those agents “obsessed,” in some negative way, with my dad’s boyhood walks about town?

They certainly might have been — if we were to apply a certain kind of leftist thinking.

How the Left Plans on Putting Boots on the Ground to Subdue Middle America

By Selwyn Duke

It was said during our Mideast military adventures, and has been considered a truism of war, that you can’t really win a conflict without “boots on the ground.” For it’s difficult to completely subdue a people from afar. It may not be too different with battles for civilization.

I stated in 2012, addressing a long-developing reality, that the culture war was over as the Left had achieved social dominance. “What is occurring now is a pacification effort,” I wrote — one designed to stamp out the “conservative” guerrilla-group diehards.

Other than its intensification, the only thing that has changed about this effort in the last decade is that it has a new name: “cancel culture.” With GoogTwitFace (Big Tech) having upped its bias and dropped its mask and corporate America joining academia, the media and entertainment on the Dark Side, these entities act as a malevolent monolith silencing dissident voices from Maine to Maui. But it would be naïve to think the Left, which craves power and wants total control, will be satisfied with its current soft authoritarianism.

If Caitlyn Jenner Is California’s Hope, California Is Hopeless

By Selwyn Duke

California used to be the land of Ronald Reagan, the state’s pro-life, pro-school-prayer, small-government, two-term chief executive. Today, many Republicans pin their gubernatorial hopes on Bruce Jenner, a man who thinks he’s a woman, calls himself Caitlyn, and who advocates amnesty for illegal aliens. Yet both Reagan and Jenner are branded “conservative.”

What’s wrong with this picture?

Attorney and pastor Scott Lively has some idea: “‘Conservatism,’” he writes, “has always been a losers[’] game for those who forget what it is we’re supposed to be ‘conserving.’”

Is Fauci Killing Americans? Dallas Doctor Asks Senate: Why No “Official Treatment Protocol” for COVID?

By Selwyn Duke

“Something has gone off the rails in the world” with the treating of COVID-19. For one thing, despite our being more than a year into the pandemic, there’s still no “official treatment protocol” for the virus. This is a failure of the health establishment — and one that’s costing thousands of lives.

Enter the Dragon: China Is Seeking to Dominate the Atlantic With Naval Bases in Africa

By Selwyn Duke

“China is a sleeping giant,” French leader Napoleon Bonaparte once reportedly said. “Let her sleep, for when she wakes she will move the world.” While we’re “woke,” China finally is wide awake and she is moving the world. And she’s now also trying to move into the Atlantic, warns a top American general.

Activist Group Wants Biden Admin. “Task Force” to Tackle “Trans” Murders — All Based on a Lie

By Selwyn Duke

As the statist-controlled federal government burgeons and blows money, opportunities abound for activists to turn their passions into programs and policy. And now one “civil rights” group wants “a cross agency/department national task force responsible for ending” what it calls “the epidemic of murders against the transgender community.”

This is despite the fact that according to a report, “transgenders” are more likely to kill than be killed. They’re also, the report stated, less likely to be murdered than the general population.

White House Making Diversity, Not Competence, Top Priority in Physical Sciences

By Selwyn Duke

China already produces 10 times as many scientists as the United States does despite having just about four times our population. Of course, quantity doesn’t speak to quality. But our woke federal overlords want to degrade the latter, too, as the White House is now waging a war on merit in the physical sciences.
