Say White?

In 2019 I penned a column titled “Can the Right Fight Without Saying White?” The gist was, you can’t fight antiwhite racism without calling it what it is. Several weeks ago Tucker Carlson, who used to tap-dance around the topic of antiwhite hatred, preferring to more obliquely condemn bias ...

The Age of Black Rage

General Mark Milley seems like a guy who’s been able to live a functional life while afflicted with minimal brain damage. Not enough damage to appear retarded; he can do a job, he can be social, he can probably solve basic math equations. But put him on the hot seat, make him answer questions ...

Tucker’s MAGA Millstone

Lemme tell ya a story ’bout a guy named Irv Rubin. Ran a little something called the Jewish Defense League. The JDL was dedicated to battling the “enemies of the Jewish people,” which sometimes meant Ay-rabs, sometimes “neo-Nazis,” sometimes anti-Zionist Jews, and sometimes Holocaust ...

Mutiny on the Booty

Sometimes, the monotony is the message. All weekly opinion journalists eventually encounter the problem of repeated themes. It’s unavoidable. Specifics might change, political circumstances might change, but opinion writers will usually end up forging a thematic base camp from which every column ...

Handicapping the Covid Derby

Two weeks ago, when I promised that I was officially done with the Covid origin brouhaha, I meant it. Honest Injun. I had several weeks of columns plotted out that didn’t mention Covid or labs or wet markets once. But last week John Derbyshire called me out on his podcast, and Derb’s a man of ...

MAGA (Make America Goalless Again)

Last week I examined the phenomenon of MAGA rightists who, in their zeal to advance the Wuhan lab Covid origin theory and vindicate Trump, have embraced the CCP propaganda line that Covid is an American bug and the Chinese are practically innocent bystanders in the whole affair. In the six days ...

House of Faucistein

The Godfather Part II: Covid Edition Starring Xi Jinping as Michael Corleone and MAGA as Senator Geary Xi Corleone sits in a stately office in his home overlooking a lake. Senator MAGA sits opposite him. The mood is tense. Senator: “I don’t like your kind of people. I don’t like to see ...

Son of FrankenCovid

Oh, this again. The “Wuhan lab” Covid origin story has never been hotter. A year after I pointed out the numerous holes and falsehoods in the theory, it’s come roaring back to life, and not just among rightists. The core of the lab thesis is that scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology ...

Saying “No” to Black People

It’s the video nobody wants to talk about. And even the people who talk about it don’t really want to talk about it. San Dimas is a city in L.A. County. Demographics: roughly 50% non-Hispanic white, 33% Hispanic of any race, 14% Asian, 1.8% black. Last month in San Dimas an L.A. County ...

“At First Quietly, Then Much Less Quietly”

The Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI), a branch of the U.S. Department of Defense, was launched in 1971 as the Defense Race Relations Institute (it changed to DEOMI in 1979). But whatever the name, the mandate’s always been the same: pollute the armed forces with propaganda ...
