Rock and roll pioneer and notorious wild man Jerry Lee Lewis has died, and from the looks of some of the coverage of his death, the only noteworthy thing he did was……

Farrakhan continues to enjoy respect and wield influence on the Left. During the 2020 campaign, a Joe Biden ad featured a rapper who referred to Farrakhan as his “mentor.” He is friendly with Barack Obama. A taxpayer-funded mural in New York features his image. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Gaza) wrote a column for Farrakhan’s blog. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has denounced Kanye West, but she has never denounced Farrakhan. Ilhan Omar has never denounced Farrakhan. Rashida Tlaib has never denounced Farrakhan. Nor has Joe Biden.

The. Horror.

What’s happening in Iran is the biggest women’s rights protest ever in the Islamic world. Yet the response from some of the leading feminists in the United States, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Tlaib, has been resoundingly muted.

It’s overwhelming.

The New York Times has published a lot of ridiculous articles in its day, but this is one of the most ridiculous ever. It portrays Linda Sarsour, who has led a charmed life as a darling of the Leftist intelligentsia, as the poor victim not just of the sinister “alt-right,” but of “Russian trolls,” no less.

This didn’t just happen. Someone or some group made it happen. My guess is on the Soros cabal.To what end? Political office.

CUNY “assigned its chief diversity officer, Saly Abd Alla, the former civil rights director of CAIR’s Minnesota chapter, to investigate an email sent by Kingsborough Community College (KCC) professor Jeffrey Lax, accusing its president of anti-Zionist antisemitic discrimination.”

Lax’s reaction was precise and succinct: “We don’t want Jews here. That’s the message that it sends.” According to the Daily Caller, “he noted that Alla is in charge of overseeing all discrimination investigations at the ‘single largest urban university in the country,’ which encompasses 25 campuses and close to 300,000 students. ‘When you have someone from CAIR leading a discrimination office throughout the university, you are the biggest cause of the antisemitism.’”

The September 11, 2001 jihad terror attacks were twenty-one years ago, and Americans have moved on. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu) was widely ridiculed and even reviled a few years ago for breezily characterizing 9/11 as the day when “some people did something,” but she has had the last laugh: the coverage of the attacks every…

On September 1, 2022, the 83rd anniversary of the Nazi invasion of Poland, Joe Biden stood before an ominous red and black backdrop and declared that “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.” We have heard this kind of rhetoric before. And because we have heard it before, we know where it leads.

It isn’t as if we weren’t warned. Many people have observed for years now that the total exclusion of morality from the public square, and the refusal to declare that any behavior was wrong in itself, would lead to the normalization of all manner of abhorrent behavior. Such warnings seem almost quaint now, with drag queens in primary schools and toddlers being encouraged to undergo radical body mutilation

Public schools even for the youngest children are becoming playgrounds for the woke, featuring drag queens, transgender closets, Critical Race Theory and more, but if you say a word about it, the National Education Association (NEA) will destroy you. That is the message of a new YouTube ad from the NEA’s New Jersey chapter. According…

There couldn’t be a better occasion for government and law enforcement authorities and the establishment media to end their denial and obfuscation about Islam and jihad than an attack on the world’s highest-profile “blasphemer,” but no such luck. Thirty-three years after the death fatwa was pronounced against Salman Rushdie and a bounty put on his…

What could possibly go wrong?

The First Amendment says that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” but make no mistake: we do have an established religion in the United States today. It’s woke Leftism.

Imagine if a sitting member of the House of Representatives had had campaign events organized by alleged financiers of the Ku Klux Klan. He or she would already have resigned in disgrace. But Rashida Tlaib won’t even be asked about this…

The Jan. 6 Stalinist show trial is a naked attempt to demonize and ultimately criminalize legitimate political opposition in the United States, and so it comes as no surprise that the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), one of the Left’s premier, well-heeled, and most ruthless attack dogs, would be involved.

The Left is embracing totalitarianism at a rapid clip, and that all too many Leftists are just fine with the idea that if you hold political opinions that they deem unacceptable, you should be harassed and hounded anywhere and everywhere, presumably until you’re simply too exhausted to continue to dissent from their agenda. Their totalitarian is showing, without concealment or apology.

Would Joe Biden’s military cover up the identity of this perpetrator in Syria to avoid tarnishing the image of Islam? You bet your life.

The Left seems intent on destroying the country in pursuit of unchallenged political power in it.

Fires and other disasters hitting oil, food, and coal industries….and now, thousands of dead cows.

If you want to talk about an insurrection, Jan. 20, 2017 was much closer to one than anything that happened on Jan. 6, 2021, especially in light of the fact that it was followed by four years of the false charges of Russian Collusion against Trump, complete with a multimillion-dollar investigation and two impeachments over nothing. The ones who really tried to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power, the ones who have been busy working to subvert and control what should be a free electoral process in the United States, are the ones who are shouting the loudest about the Jan. 6 “insurrection”….

As the insanity of American society today gallops forward, it came to light Sunday that Ballentine Elementary School in Wake County Park, North Carolina has been using LGBTQ-themed flashcards featuring a pregnant man to teach young children colors.

Pull you children out of government schools before they are irrevocably harmed.

America has crossed the Rubicon.

Is this what the Americans who gave their lives for freedom died for? Did they die so that Leftist authoritarianism could descend upon the United States? Did they die for the forcible silencing of legitimate, non-violent, lawful political dissent? Did they die so that these privileged elites could decide who gets to speak and who gets a platform to be heard, and who does not?

American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) is one of the most prominent groups in the United States advocating for the Palestinian jihad and spreading propaganda against Israel. While this makes it the darling of some Leftist circles, it has a predictably sinister pedigree. The Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) on Thursday reported that a federal judge…

The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) is the largest Muslim organization on the continent, and easily one of the most sinister. ISNA manifested its truly evil agenda once again recently, when it issued a statement denouncing “Israeli violence against Palestinian worshipers” without, not surprisingly, bothering to notice that those “worshipers” were actually Islamic jihadis who were stockpiling stones and other material to use as weapons in attacks against Israeli civilians.

Ammar Campa-Najjar is the “grandson of Mexican immigrants,” a failed Congressional candidate, and currently a Democratic candidate for mayor of Chula Vista, California. He has received the endorsement of the Chula Vista firefighters’ union. He is also a committed Leftist, as his capsule bio at Ballotpedia reveals: “Campa-Najjar worked on Barack Obama’s presidential re-election campaign as…

The chief of America’s new Thought Police, Disinformation Governance Board executive director Nina Jankowicz, is really excited about taking up her new duties. In fact, this is her dream job.

Teaming up to impose Sharia blasphemy laws and restrict the freedom of speech in the West under the guise of prohibiting “Islamophobia.”

Don’t laugh. The House passed the “islamphobia” bill in December.

An hour before midnight on Saturday, April 16, as millions of Christians around the world were preparing to celebrate Easter, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu), who was not, was on Twitter. She sent around a video captioned “Worshipping Jesus 30,000 Feet In The Air,” showing a young man with a guitar leading what appears to be…

Remember Darrell Brooks, Jr.? On November 21, 2021, he plowed his car through the Waukesha Christmas Parade in Wisconsin, murdering six people and injuring 61. Remember Noah Green? On April 2, 2021, he rammed his car into a barricade at the U.S. Capitol, murdering one person and injuring another. You don’t hear very much about them nowadays, because their cases don’t fit the establishment media narrative. And now the same cone of silence is descending upon the case of Frank James, the man who shot ten people and injured another 19 on the subway in Brooklyn on Tuesday.

Brooks, Green, and James shared the same ideology: they were all black nationalists who hated white people and believed that they could never get a fair shake in an America dogged by systemic racism and white supremacy. In other words, they hewed closely to the standard Leftist worldview of today, but their violence didn’t fit the standard media narrative.

Emigration for the sake of Allah involves Islamizing one’s new home. So if Faaruuq doesn’t like it here, if he keeps on preaching Islam and getting others to do so, eventually he will like it just fine, because it will be just like Sudan or Afghanistan. Some people are working hard right now to bring that about.

Cartoons of Muhammad are the rebuke to the West that just won’t go away: the political and media elites all over Europe and North America never seem to tire of demonstrating their cowardice and readiness to accept Sharia norms in the face of violent threats. So it was no real surprise when the Archbishop Cranmer blogspot…

Matthew Perna was not the only victim of the January 6 witch hunt. On January 6, 2021, a protestor, 40-year-old Brady Knowlton, says that an officer at the Capitol told “You can go in, as long as you don’t break anything.”

It reminds me of one of the case histories in neurologist Oliver Sacks seminal book, “The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a hat.”

If the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) were honest, it would change its name to the Anti-Right Wing Defamation League, because whenever Jew-hatred comes from the Left or from adherents of the Left’s favorite religion, Islam, the ADL just doesn’t see it.

Imagine a country that imprisons peaceful protestors on false charges of participating in an attempt to overthrow the government, as part of efforts to discredit and ultimately criminalize all opposition to the ruling party’s agenda. People who entered a public building when police held the door open for them are being held in solitary confinement and given draconian punishments far out of proportion to what they actually did. This is the sort of thing that happens in Third World countries, right?

While all eyes are fixed on Ukraine and wondering if Dementia Joe is going to back our woke, distracted military into World War III, a telling incident at the University of Connecticut demonstrated a feature of our glorious multicultural mosaic that has not often been seen in America before: the jihad between Sunni and Shi’ite Muslims.

This is what happens when America has a feeble president, an obvious figurehead, and our military is compromised by Leftist ideologues. Clearly Putin is taking advantage of Biden’s obvious weakness and the decimation of our Armed Forces by wokeness and Covid hysteria. He knows that there is little likelihood that Biden will touch off World War III by committing American troops to the defense of Ukraine.

In these enlightened years of Biden’s handlers’ administration, the “Southern border” has become more of a concept than a reality, as anyone, literally anyone, no longer how long his criminal record or extensive his terrorist connections, can cross into the United States in hopes of a new life of peace, prosperity, and high living off the American taxpayer.

In the most consequential appointment since the Roman emperor Caligula made his horse Incitatus a senator, Old Joe Biden’s handlers have appointed one Sam Brinton (“they/them”) to be the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Office of Nuclear Energy in the Department of Energy. But in our American version of…

A recent incident once again pointed up the willful ignorance and wrongheadedness of our foreign policy establishment.

NBC’s Mehdi Hasan called non-Muslims animals and cattle, and comparing homosexuals to pedophiles.

A remarkable news story out of the Netherlands vividly illustrates how much mass Muslim migration has already transformed Europe, and will continue to transform it in the near future.

FBI Special Agent in Charge Matt DeSarno claimed that the Texas synagogue hostage-taking was “not specifically related to the Jewish community.” Back in the real world, however, Rabbi Charlie Cytron-Walker of Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville, Texas said of jihadi Malik Faisal Akram: “This was somebody who literally thought that Jews control the world.” This statement will be universally ignored by investigators who are trying to figure out why this happened, and yet it’s the key to the whole incident. If FBI agents pondered it, they might actually get a clue.

If you thought that the Muslim rape gangs that plagued Britain for years while authorities did nothing for fear of being called “racists” or “Islamophobes” were a thing of the past, think again

Like the Judenrat…..

If you listen to the likes of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), you already know that America is a racist, redneck pesthole where roaming Trump supporters routinely make life miserable for pious, peaceful innocent Muslims. Since that is the narrative that CAIR would have you believe, it came as no surprise Tuesday when this cynical and manipulative organization’s lawyers filed yet another discrimination lawsuit, this time on behalf of a Muslim woman in Missouri who claims a gun range discriminated against her. The facts, as is virtually always the case in situations such as this one, are otherwise.

Merry Christmas to all those Christians who are celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ today. One of the fundamental good ideas of Christianity is summed up in the most famous of New Testament passages: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so that whoever believes in Him would not perish,…

Sharia legislation.

For years now, Facebook and the other social media giants have been acting as the guardians of acceptable opinion, banning even the president of the United States for stating views they decided had to be forcibly suppressed.
