The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Probably Not a Trump Supporter

Say hello to 42-year-old Tammel Esco, who is accused of a hate crime in New York, and my hunch is, he’s not the MAGA type: A New York woman was punched more than 125 times in the head and face and stomped on seven times by a man who had allegedly called her an “Asian […]

The Arithmetic of ‘Equality’

John Sexton reports on a failed educational experiment: Last summer the Washington Post published a report about California’s consideration of a plan to do away with tracking in the state’s math classes. As the report was quick to point out, the argument for de-tracking was one connected to race and to a desire to reduce the achievement gap. […]

What ‘Intellectuals’ Believe

Elie Mystal Jr. is the son of a Haitian immigrant. His father became a politician in Suffolk County, N.Y., whose “tenure as a county lawmaker ended in 2008 after he faced charges that he lied about living in the district in 2007 and 2008, a period during which he was splitting his time between Huntington […]

Infamous Race Hustler Uses Ukraine War to — You Guessed It — Hustle Race

The brilliance of Critical Race Theory is that it enables practitioners to see racism literally everywhere: Left-wing New York Times reporter and controversial 1619 Project creator Nikole Hannah-Jones was slammed online after accusing journalists covering the Russian invasion into Ukraine of “racialized analysis and language” in their reporting, indicating their “sympathy” for white victims of conflict and […]

Way to Go, ‘White Supremacists’!

You probably didn’t realize “white supremacists” had taken over San Francisco, but that’s just how clever and sneaky they are: The progressive San Francisco school-board president recalled by voters earlier this week claimed her ouster was a “consequence” of fighting for racial justice, and represents a victory for “white supremacists.” “So if you fight for […]

Jewish Candidate for Louisville Mayor Survives BLM Assassination Attempt

Less than a week ago, writing about a fringe black “liberation” group, I warned that “there is no guarantee that the next radical gesture will end so harmlessly,” and an intended target literally dodged a bullet this week: Police have arrested a suspect they say was responsible for the attempted murder of Louisville Democratic mayoral […]

Rams Win the ‘White Supremacy’ Bowl

Super Bowl LVI will go down in history as one of the great triumphs of systemic racism, in which the Los Angeles Rams — with white head coach Sean McVay and white quarterback Matt Stafford — defeated the Cincinnati Bengals, with white coach Zac Taylor and white quarterback Joe Burrow. This is almost certainly part […]

The Destructive Cult of Racial ‘Liberation’

For many years, one of my journalistic specialties was covering the political fringe. This is important work — and frankly, a lot more fun than covering “mainstream” politics — because most of the real action in politics happens on the fringe. All movements that have significant impact on society begin on the fringe, where seemingly […]
