For quite some time it has been obvious that our nation’s colleges and universities are no longer institutions of higher learning, but radioactive wastelands of Leftist indoctrination and Antifa recruitment. Resounding confirmation of this came Tuesday from the University of Michigan, when a Jewish student was condemned for telling the truth, and groveled before his…

Yes, he really did.

Has Bernie Sanders ever been right about anything?

So why does ahistorical twaddle and fantasy such as Islamic Empires get published and praised to the skies in the @WSJ?
