There’s No Place in America’s Military for Racist Training

Critical race theory threatens the U.S. military’s mission of defending in combat the Constitution and our way of life from enemies who would destroy and subjugate us.

When President Harry Truman ordered the desegregation of the military in 1948, he invoked the United States’ commitment to “equality of treatment and opportunity for all” as his reason for doing so.

Unfortunately, more than 70 years after Truman’s executive order, racist and un-American ideas of unequal treatment are creeping back into the Armed Forces under the guise of so-called critical race theory.

The Latest Canceling at Vanderbilt Shows That Everyone Is Awful and We Are All Doomed

The latest episode of cancel culture at Vanderbilt University should terrify Americans.

This is a harbinger of the damage the woke “social justice” mob can do when there are no adults in the room, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of not standing up to the ridiculous standards of modern outrage.

Last month, Vanderbilt University held its elections for the president and vice president of student government. The two leading campaigns pitted Jordan Gould and Amisha Mittal against Hannah Bruns and Kayla Prowell.

Shortly after the campaign began, rumors swirled that Gould, who is Jewish, attended a Sigma Chi fraternity event that broke the fraternity into North and South teams, with games and events loosely based on the Civil War. Cue the outrage.

Tiananmen Square watch withdrawn from sale by auction house

A luxury UK auction house has withdrawn from sale a rare watch given to Chinese soldiers as a reward for their part in the Tiananmen Square massacre, after it said the vendor had received online threats.

The sale of the watch, depicting a green-helmeted soldier and the text “89.6 to commemorate the quelling of the rebellion” in Chinese characters, sparked questions over the ethics of profiting from an item associated with an atrocity.

The European Union: From a Single Market to a Tragic Farce

Concerning the European Union, opinions are divided between those who consider it useless and costly, and those who believe it to be the future of Europe and a model for the human race.

What is the reality?

Before today’s EU emerged, the construction of a European union was, at first, a tremendous success.

A woman’s complaint about Canada’s top soldier went to Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan. When he wouldn’t get involved, she dropped it

Without assurances of support from the defence minister, a woman who made an informal complaint in 2018 against Canada’s top soldier wanted to let the matter go, the military’s former ombudsman told the Star.

As a result, Gary Walbourne said he did not pass on an allegation of misconduct to his successor about Jonathan Vance, the now retired general who was then Canada’s chief of the defence staff.

“No, I didn’t pass it on, because the complainant asked me to let it go,” Walbourne said. “Once I couldn’t get top cover from the minister, she was out.”

Avi Benlolo: Are educated people more anti-Semitic?

“…If hate is taught, it can be untaught through education, right?

Wrong, according to a new survey spearheaded by Prof. Jay P. Greene, Prof. Albert Cheng and Ian Kingsbury, who discussed their results in a feature article published recently in Tablet magazine. Their survey was designed to determine whether anti-Semitism is associated with lower levels of education. Their shocking results reveal that we have probably put too much of our faith over the last century into education. In fact, it’s possible that the opposite may be true — that the more educated you are, the more anti-Semitic you might be.”

French Govt rejects the term ‘Islamophobia‘ calls it a ‘Weapon‘ exploited by Islamists

The French government has rejected the use of the term “Islamophobia”, saying Islamists use it to silence criticism of radical Islam.

The French Interministerial Committee for the Prevention of Delinquency and Radicalisation rejected the term earlier this week, stating: “To speak of hatred against Muslims, the term ‘Islamophobia’ is inappropriate since it confuses the stigmatisation of believers with criticism of Islam.”

“A Certain Madness Amok” – In Canada, trans “justice” has gone haywire.

At this moment, a Vancouver postman named Rob Hoogland is sitting in a jail cell in British Columbia. He will be there until at least April 12, when he’s scheduled for a court date. At that time, he may be ordered to remain behind bars for a period yet to be determined.

Has Hoogland killed or robbed somebody? Is he an arsonist? A rapist? No. What did he do, then? Short answer: he tried to save his emotionally unstable daughter from self-destruction.
