Re: Howard University’s ‘Safe Space’ for Hate1

“We can always rely on The Patriot Post to cut through the mass media’s adoring fluff and call Kendi and Jones what they are — extortionists and hate provocateurs! Thank you for the uncommon clarity, even among conservative publications.” —New York

“This is top-shelf analysis, a great summary of these race-bait frauds. They are hoping for another thug like George Floyd to help kickstart their next round of funding.” —California

Re: What Euro Leftists Don’t Understand About Trump’s America2

“This article is replete with so many truths. If only the Left could understand these most fundamental principles of Liberty. But they worship the state as their savior.” —Wisconsin

“Thank you, Mr Kisin. Please move to America. I think we can find some space for you here.” —Missouri

“Kisin neglected to mention Number 11: We in the USA refuse to relinquish our freedom, our liberty, our unalienable rights, and our sovereignty, opposite of those in Europe! In the creation of the European Union, every nation essentially surrendered its identity, thereby ending any national pride and patriotism — they have all been reduced to being just Europeans, no longer with their own identity. That has been the intention of the globalists all along. All in the EU have been sold out by their leaders, their borders erased, and they now suffer the consequences!” —California

Re: The Gabbard Hearing: A Tough Fight Looms3

“All the more reason we need her and RFK Jr. The status quo needed to go eight years ago. That hasn’t changed one iota. Even the ‘Republicans’ are doing all that’s possible to hamstring any meaningful improvement to this country. Does Congress need to be reminded, yet again, that they work for us, the citizens, not corporations with big wallets, illegal aliens, or mega donors?” —Montana

Re: Gender-Mutilation Whistleblower Finally Vindicated4

“Dr. Haim’s case is yet another example of why we need statutes punishing false charges with the same penalty accruing to those charges, plus reimbursement of legal expenses. If prosecutors know they will be held personally responsible for abuse of power, they will be deterred from the evil. The same should apply first to witnesses; ruining another’s reputation or life is a very serious matter.” —Minnesota

Re: The Tragedy of DEI5

“It’s almost unbelievable that anyone would hire someone for a crucial position knowing that the applicant did not have the education or experience for the life-and-death position. Lowering the standards for firemen, police, military, pilots, and doctors so that minorities can also have these highly demanding jobs is the height of absence of a frontal lobe, and it is frightening that otherwise intelligent managers were taken in by it.” —Pennsylvania

Re: Are Nondenominationals the Future of American Christianity?6

“I so agree with Thomas. I am a lifelong Catholic and I am shocked by the message that comes from the pulpit these days. I think about the stories in the Old Testament, and I do not understand those who are defending illegal entry into the United States based on the Scriptures. I would think they would recognize the stories of the slavery and treatment of the Jews. Yet the Left is wondering who is going to pick the blueberries at less than minimum wage. Helping the poor is one thing; enabling the poor is another. Helping people in a rough time is also one thing; causing them to remain in that condition is another. I truly believe that if you give a man a fish, he’ll eat for a day, but if you teach him to fish, he’ll eat for a lifetime.” —Wisconsin

“Nondenominational churches are no more immune to heresy than others. Some teach ‘prosperity gospel.’ Some spout psychobabble ‘where there is no peace’ assurances instead of the Law and Gospel. Many ‘do not discern the Lord’s body’ in Communion or do not see what God does for them in baptism. It is common for them to be hung up on eschatology instead of teaching salvation through Christ alone. We must search the Scriptures, check all the teaching against them, and avoid error as poison.” —Minnesota

“Seemingly opposite is the surge in Latin Mass attendance. How can these two — the informal and the very formal — both be growing at the same time? After Vatican II, Mass became attendee-focused and homilies waded heavily into worldly matters. The Church lost my physical presence over this, but Jesus never lost my heart. The focus on the Gospel and the Altar (vs. the pews) in the Latin Mass provides the personal relationship with Him that I need. Maybe the two movements aren’t opposites after all.” —California

Re: The New Tariff in Town7

“The Trump administration’s announced hold on the new tariffs in response to Mexico’s dispatch of 10,000 troops to prevent smuggling suggests that the tariffs were more of a tool to call attention to the urgency of our demands to stop fentanyl smuggling. Apparently our neighbors were running us ‘through normal channels’ instead of treating the problem as the emergency President Trump considers it to be. Mexico’s president now understands we’re serious. Canada’s prime minister still seems befuddled.” —Minnesota

Re: Tuesday Short Cuts8

“After World World II, women remained in the workforce rather than going home to be part of the family structure. Corporations were happy to welcome this capable workforce that cost less money and brought skills that were needed to grow the economy and business structure. Unfortunately, the family structure suffered, and lower academic achievement became a result of this new metric. Trying to fix education by government involvement (Department of Education) failed, but as a government program, it was probably given eternal life. Maybe it can still be saved.” —Washington
