‘Crash Out Kylie’: How a Queer Feminist Became Famous (Not in a Good Way)

Because I don’t pay much attention to podcasts, I overlooked some delicious drama last year, when an Ivy League-educated “queer feminist” named Kylie Brewer went on the popular “Whatever” show, hosted by Brian Atlas. The show flew her out from Chicago to California for her spotlight appearance, where she was confronted by a well-known Christian […]

‘There Is No Truth … Only Power’

Before he died of AIDS, Michel Foucault was a French philosopher and also sodomized boys in Tunisia. These facts are not unrelated. Any argument must stand or fall on its own merits. As every educated person knows, attempting to refute an argument by attacking the personality of its proponent is a logical fallacy known as […]

An Unjustified Arrogance

The word “diplomat” is often a synonym for spy. The functions of diplomacy and espionage are so closely intertwined that if someone’s resumé includes a stint at the State Department, you are not wrong to suspect them of also being a CIA operative. Over the past decade, Americans have learned that our “intelligence community” does […]

The Heroism of Amy Wax

“A man who is not willing to be slandered by the Left is of no use to the Right. It goes without saying, and can be demonstrated from history, that every successful proponent of the conservative cause becomes a target of the Left’s character assassins.” — Robert Stacy McCain, “First They Came for Mel Bradford” […]

The Dumbest Take on the 2024 Election

A few weeks ago, I bought a copy of Thomas Sowell’s 1987 book A Conflict of Visions as a gift for a young man who was struggling with his political views. My intention is, once he’s finished reading that, to give him the second book of that Sowell trilogy, The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation […]

The Agony of #NeverTrump: His Comeback Has Destroyed Their Prestige

If you want to see something funny — that is, assuming you have a sadistic sense of humor — you should go watch YouTube highlights of The Bulwark’s Election Night podcast, featuring Bill Kristol, Tim Miller, Sarah Longwell, Jonathan V. Last and company in a slow downhill slide from hope to despair. Perhaps never in […]
