    A different point of view vs. an opposing worldview

    Really now, isn’t that what we always accuse the left of doing, namely, repeating the same mantras and talking points without nuance or balance? Is our side so weak that it can’t survive scrutiny or pushback or different points of view on secondary issues?

    From ‘intergenerational intimacy’ to ‘minor-attracted persons’

    Obviously, while there is a world of difference between consensual acts between two adults of the same sex and the rape of a child by an adult, it is striking that arguments in favor of destigmatizing homosexuality mirror arguments in favor of destigmatizing pedophilia and pederasty.

    Get used to the heat and get in the kitchen

    You’ve heard the saying, “If you don’t like the heat, then get out of the kitchen.” Well, that only works if you’re not called to be in the kitchen. For those of us who are called to be there, it would be better to say, “Get used to the heat and get in the kitchen.”

    What many of us white Americans still don't understand

    A few years ago, after months of race-related discussion on my radio show, I put forth a simple thesis: White Americans often do not see racism when it is there. Black Americans often do see racism when it is not there.

  • Whatever happened to Trump being restored to the White House?

    Whatever happened to Trump being restored to the White House?

    The truth be told, as a Trump voter in 2016 and 2020, I was privately hoping that the prophecies of his restoration to the White House were true and that the courts would find massive voter fraud, overturning the elections.

  • 2022 losing strategy for Democrats: Blaming white supremacy

    2022 losing strategy for Democrats: Blaming white supremacy

    As long as Democratic leaders continue to misunderstand what tens of millions of Americans are thinking and why they are voting as they do, they will continue to lose elections.

  • Why did Disney’s Jungle Cruise have to go gay?

    Why did Disney’s Jungle Cruise have to go gay?

    The reality, of course, is that LGBTQ characters abound on TV and in the movies. And if you identify as LGBTQ and want to see someone like yourself on the screen, you can readily do it, right up to being a gay or bi or trans superhero.
