Faking Race On The Left — American Thinker

This is from 12 months ago and popped up as a memory on my Facebook feed. With all the static, chatter and noise swirling around identity politics it is still relevant today and for some time into the future I suspect. "...Sigmund Freud must be wishing he were alive...

What Thinking Australians Are Thinking

What Thinking Australians Are Thinking.. This first one nails the malaise of the voters right across the Western Hemisphere. Trump is but the lightening rod and I suspect he won't be the last. People voting for Donald Trump are not generally for Trump the person, they...

The UN’s Secretary General Antonio Guterres in the frame as Jennifer Oriel speaks with Alan Jones

“..The largest voting bloc at the UN is the Organisation of Islamic Co-operation. The OIC replaced the Universal Declaration of Human Rights with the Islamic Cairo Declaration whose articles are not universal, but established “in accordance with the Islamic Shariah”. In 2007, as UN refugee chief, Guterres addressed the League of Arab States. He credited Islamic law as an “invaluable foundation for the legal framework” used by his office..”

Everything’s coming up Trumps — Mark Latham

“..The Clinton campaign and Leftist media have perfected the politics of personal destruction, turning private indiscretions into public issues — something Bill Clinton himself railed against in his 1998 defence of the Monica Lewinsky affair. Trump’s ¬decision prior to the second presidential debate to hold a press conference with three women allegedly sexually abused by Mr Clinton, was an amazing moment. The evidence suggests Mrs Clinton ran a protection racket for her husband against these allegations — hence her hypocrisy when speaking on “women’s issues”. Despite the biased moderators, Trump wiped Clinton in the debate, proving he’s a more formidable figure that his critics concede..”

From Greek Tragedy To American Therapy — Victor Davis Hanson

“..America’s impoverished ancestors at 15 years of age may have rounded Cape Horn on a schooner or ridden bareback over the Rockies. Not today’s therapeutic college youth. They have been so victimized by racism, sexism, homophobia, Islamophobia and other -isms and -phobias that colleges often provide them “safe spaces,” outlaw “microaggressions” and demand “trigger warnings” to avoid the un-nice. What would our grandfathers think? As teenagers on D-Day, they found no safe spaces on Omaha Beach. A storm of steel from thousands of SS killers proved more than a “microaggression” at the Battle of the Bulge. Generals did not give their freezing GIs mere “trigger warnings” about a half-million Chinese Red Army soldiers crossing the Yalu River during the Korean War…”

Clinton vs Trump Washington vs the forgotten — Nick Cater — The Australian

“..Clinton conspicuously failed to reach out to Trump’s “basket of deplorables”. Instead, she has sown disdain, confirming the forgotten Americans’ worst fears about the political class: that their interests have not been overlooked by accident but by design. They are right. Clinton’s pitch for power is less a vision for perfecting the Union than a statement of personal virtue; it’s not what you do but how you think that matters, and results be damned. One votes for the respectable candidate because one is not among the low-life who vote for Trump..”
