Why doesn’t failed MSNBC host Joy Reid leave the U.S., as so many haters of President Donald Trump and his America-First policies have vowed to do? On Monday, she expressed her paranoid, fantasy-driven, and hysterical hatred and contempt for the United States during the second Trump administration, and compared the U.S. unfavorably to the Islamic Republic of Iran. So why not move to Tehran, Joy? It’s likely that real estate there is quite inexpensive these days. Reid started out by claiming a moral equivalency between the Islamic Republic, which has murdered tens of thousands of its own citizens over the...

Democratic Representative and Texas Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett is already saying her election was rigged as voters are turned away due to confusion at the polls. You read that right. Crockett, a member of the party that will call you an “election denier” and a “threat to democracy,” is blaming “cheating” is happening in her race. Now, Jasmine Crockett is crying foul play. In a press conference earlier with House candidate Collin Allred, Crockett claimed that she is being cheated, while urging voters to “make sure that you go ahead and figure out where it is that you are supposed...

Richie Greenberg, one of the plaintiffs suing San Francisco over its reparations fund, claimed the measure is divisive because it solely favors Black residents. "It is dividing the city rather than trying to unite. So, what we really need is to be focusing on how to uplift everybody rather than focusing on one group giving everything to that one group. And then everyone else is then responsible for paying for that one group," Greenberg told Fox News Digital. Greenberg formerly identified as a Republican and currently identifies as a centrist-conservative Democrat. The city was sued over its reparations fund on...

Anyone who pays the slightest bit of attention to academic sociology these days knows there are serious problems. I have been writing about this phenomenon now for a number of years, pointing out, e.g., sociology’s drift from its origins and how its journals and conferences clearly illustrate its biases. The discipline has become captured by an ideology and has given up on its earlier scientific promise. A glance at the titles of conference papers and journal articles, or indeed at the course offerings in sociology at any institution of higher learning, reveals the transformation. Even some Marxist professors have come...

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett gave a meandering response on her reparations stance during a Thursday episode of REVOLT News’ “The People’s Brief.” Crockett, who is running for Senate, said on “The Black Lawyers Podcast” in April 2024 that she was open to exempting black people from paying taxes as a type of reparations. On the REVOLT News show, host Lynae Vanee said there was “some misinformation” surrounding Crockett’s position on the issue, but the Senate candidate failed to clarify it. “I think that anybody that knows me knows that I’m a fan of, you know, making sure that people...
