Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Trump revoked John Brennan’s security clearance and Proggies went insane — and of course, they went stupid, too. All that and more in this Bookworm Beat. Apparently “honesty” and “integrity” have a different meaning inside the beltway. I was one of the millions who appreciated Admiral McRaven’s commencement speech at

Germany, both past and present, is an object lesson in the way that treating Jews well allows a country to thrive and treating them badly kills a country. I’ve long said that the most successful countries are those that treat their Jews well. It’s not that Jews work some bizarre

Thomas Sowell telling said that facts — real world, life facts — ended his Marxist phase. I’ve compiled a list of life facts that made me conservative. Dave Rubin interviewed Thomas Sowell, who has a new book out called Discrimination and Disparities. I will get myself a copy as soon

Events in South Africa today reveal that the Progressives’ adored Ruth Bader Ginsburg is a moral and constitutional moron, not a brilliant Leftist avatar. Progressives adore Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whom they fondly call “Notorious RBG.” Indeed, in 2015, a book entitled Notorious RBG: The Life and Times

As long as the hard Left media keeps obsessing about destroying the Second Amendment, I’ll keep having Second Amendment illustrated editions. Uhmmmmmm Donald Trump’s place of work is one of the most heavily armed facilities in the world. These students need to spend less time in the streets and more

Am I overreacting to think that BYU’s online government class slipped in a gratuitous, classically antisemitic trope about Jews controlling foreign policy? I’ve written before about BYU’s online high school government class and, frankly, didn’t have much nice to say about it. It’s poorly written, poorly structured, and poorly informed.

A recent attack against Harvey Weinstein in a Jewish publication reminds us that, when it comes to antisemitism, America’s Jews are overachievers. Almost three years ago, I wrote a post entitled Some of America’s ugliest antisemitism comes from young Hollywood Jews (language warning). I wrote after I had watched a

Watcher’s Council members and their friends are at it again, writing insightful, entertaining posts about the situation at home and abroad. A Palestinian speaks the truth at the UN — the shock is palpable Unmasking ‘Taking The Knee’…The Real Issues At Stake Which Women Were Given Hope? Bookworm Beat 9/29/17

There’s so much Leftist insanity that one Bookworm Beat wasn’t enough to contain it all. It takes two posts to grasp what’s really going on. The craven FBI refuses to stop Leftist insanity. Although the mainstream media is silent, the conservative media is appropriately outraged that James Comey had already decided

At Charlottesville, Antifa and Neo-Nazis proved to be birds of a feather; and blacks are right to want to remove Confederate monuments from public spaces. I’ve been rather conspicuously silent about events in the South. As you know, I like to wait until the hysteria settles and facts emerge to

The deeply moving 14th Annual Ariel Avrech Lecture was the anchor for an inspiring weekend that cemented old friendships and introduced me to new friends. Some of you may remember that, about a week ago, I wrote a post saying that I’d be flying down to L.A. to attend the

If you want to know why identity groups support Democrats even when doing so is counter to their interests, there’s one reason, and one reason alone…. Practically since the day I started blogging, at which time I revealed myself to be a politically conservative Jew, I’ve regularly been asked the

Despite a small spark of rationality, Macalester College’s weekly paper displays the Progressive hate, ignorance, and nonsense at an American college. Knowing my passion for free speech, someone sent me a small sign of hope: a link to a student-written opinion piece from the weekly student newspaper at Macalester University

Being Jewish and being a stalwart Israel supporter, I watch a lot of videos about modern antisemitism. This may be the best I’ve ever seen. I urge you to watch it and to share it: My simplified version of the message Rabbi Sacks gives is that, throughout history, a society

Teen Vogue turns against Israel with a gauzy, one-sided view of Palestinians. This sewage-like flow of Leftist ideology traces back to American academia. For those naive enough to think that Teen Vogue is a fashion magazine, please disabuse yourself of that notion as quickly as possible. It is, in fact,
