Recently, I wrote a piece at The Federalist titled “Hell Hath No Fury Like A Single Liberal Woman,” based on my own experience as a former liberal, and offered some explanation as to why single women make up such a large proportion of the Democrat Party. And why, as Jesse Kelly commented, many of those women seem to be somewhat mentally unstable. Based on comments in my inbox and on social media, the piece was fairly well received. Well, mostly well received. Of course, any time you categorically call a group of people, particularly single women, “crazy,” you’re bound to get some pushback.
The Chinese Don’t Want Electric Cars Either
The automobile market in this country was wrecked on the assumption that everyone would be switching to electric cars. As I wrote in, “No Cars for the Working Class”, that’s not happening. Ford and GM bled billions to fail at capturing a tiny niche market already owned by Tesla. Most people don’t want, can’t use and can’t afford electric cars.
How woke leftists became cheerleaders for Iran
How quickly the ‘Ceasefire Now!’ lobby turned into frothing warmongers. No sooner had Iran began its criminal bombardment of Israel than these phoney peaceniks were leaping up and down with delight. This is ‘true solidarity’, said one ‘pro-Palestine’ group in response to Iran’s raining down of missiles on the Jewish State. We can now glimpse the truth behind their fake pacifism. We can see their yearning for war on Israel that they cynically dress up as a campaign for peace in Palestine. It’s not a ceasefire woke Westerners want – it’s the humiliation and taming of the Jewish nation.
The Astrophysicist Warning About the Coming Little Ice Age: “It’s Already Started”
“CO2 is not a bad gas,” says Valentina Zharkova, a Professor at the Northumbria University in Newcastle, U.K. On the contrary, she points out, every garden centre uses it in its greenhouses to make plants lush and green. “We actually have a CO2 deficit in the world, and it’s three to four times less than the plants would like,” she notes, adding that the proportion of CO2 in the atmosphere has been at much higher levels throughout our planet’s history than it is now.
Where Cancel Culture Must Go Next
… A modest suggestion for cancel culture is to start by focusing on Muslim countries in the Middle East. After all, far more blacks were taken as slaves from Africa to Middle Eastern Muslim countries than were taken to the New World.
The question for cancel culture becomes how to start making Muslims in the Middle East aware of their sin of slavery. In the United States, cancel culture had some success by focusing on well known slave owners such as the Founding Fathers. Cancel culture might want to use the same strategy and focus on well known slave-owners who were Muslims.

The Trump Trials: Day One is in the books. Here’s some key takeaways.
The first day of the first-ever criminal trial of a former president has officially concluded. Defendant and former president Donald Trump was present and called the proceeding an “assault on America.”
At the outset, lawyers spent hours arguing about how much of Trump’s tabloid-fueled sex life should be described to the jury. New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan made clear he wanted the lawyers to show restraint, and at one point when things started to get tense, the judge urged lawyers to “sit down, relax.”
Today’s Antisemitism: Liberal Jews Face Harsh Reality
Way back in the Early Paleolithic Days of Nov. 13, 2023, but five weeks or so after the horrific Hamas invasion of Southern Israel, Charles Fain Lehman wrote at City Journal:
“After the October 7 terrorist attack, many American Jews have stomached two shocks: the shock of Hamas’s brutality, and the shock of their putative political allies’ support for the brutes. Liberal Jews are not only horrified by campus chants of ’there is only one solution: Intifada, revolution.’ They are also surprised.”
Surprised? Really? What planet do these “liberals” actually live on?
Kurl: Trudeau’s pre-budget dance isn’t impressing the audience
Since 2015, Justin Trudeau has been a Pied Piper, playing a tune jaunty enough to make just enough Canadians follow his fiscal path. On the campaign trail that year, after a decade of fiscal austerity under Stephen Harper, Trudeau broke political orthodoxy with a new song: modest deficits and a return to balanced budgets within three years.
It was radical (especially considering the NDP leader of the day was promising to balance his first budget), but 75 per cent of Canadians polled at the time were all in. Trudeau won the election.
The carbon tax is almost dead, and NDP leaders are helping to kill it
The carbon price is a dead tax walking. NDP leaders Jagmeet Singh and Wab Kinew are both helping to kill it.
We are moving toward a remarkable place in which the New Democrats and the Conservatives have similar positions against the tax. Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau alone is prepared to defend it – even to his political death.
Palestine activists block Brooklyn Bridge, Golden Gate and roads to Chicago O’Hare airport in coordinated attempt to bring America to its knees
Palestine activists have blocked the Brooklyn Bridge, the Golden Gate and roads to the Chicago O’Hare Airport in a coordinated attempt to bring America to its knees.
On Monday afternoon, more anti-Israel protestors took to the Brooklyn Bridge and were seen walking through traffic, chanting, banging drums and igniting flares.
Multiple protestors were arrested by NYPD officers as they attempted to block traffic on the bridge.
Viva Diversity!
Dear Government of Canada past and present, Liberal and Conservative. Thank you for turning Canada into a shithole state. It was swell of you to invite a death cult to settle here. PS. The crocodile won't eat you last. #cdnpoli https://t.co/us2jAnAOQ7

Joly Says She Asked Her Israeli Counterpart to ‘Take the Win’ and Not Bomb Iran
Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says she’s urging Israel to de-escalate rising conflicts in the Middle East and not bomb Iran in retaliation for this past weekend’s thwarted airstrikes.
Ms. Joly says she told Israel’s Foreign Minister Israel Katz to “take the win” of having stopped Iranian airstrikes and to not respond with a direct attack on Iran.
WTF?
We went from “safe, legal, and rare” to celebrating and boasting about kiIIing babies. Demonic d*ath cult pic.twitter.com/2iXliWiKAy

Rising antisemitism in Canada sparks call for second national summit
OTTAWA — Rising antisemitism in Canada since the Oct. 7 Israel terror attacks has triggered a call to convene a second national antisemitism summit.
That call came via an open letter signed by 200 politicians, community and spiritual leaders, along with a motion that will be tabled in the Senate later this week.
Marvin Rotrand, a retired politician and interim director-general of United Against Hate Canada, said during Monday morning’s press conference that while a lot of good came out of Canada’s 2021 antisemitism summit, more needs to be done.
After reading this article I can’t shake the notion that those calling for this summit are hopelessly out of touch with the true nature of Islam.
They seem to think they can reason with the people who joyously slaughtered men, women and children Oct 7.
Don’t misunderstand me, I know they are well meaning and I wish them well. But this will not accomplish a thing.
It appears the Jewish community no longer has the support they used to.
Canada has been balkanized by mass immigration and the newcomers have their own tribal conflicts to keep them busy.
WTF?
Have you ever been treated so unfairly at work that you had to sit in your car and have a good cry?
Misuse of pronouns causes a lasting and profound wound.
