Yoo Hoo, Patrisse By Joan Swirsky on June 11, 2021 “If we don’t step up to end the imperialist project that’s called Israel, we’re doomed,” proclaimed one of three co-founders of Black Lives Matter, Patrisse Cullors. She also supports the Boycott-Divest-Sanction (BDS) program that seeks to strangle Israel economically. This tiny red sliver is what […]
By Joan Swirsky | July 12th, 2020 Montana has about 1,400 Jews, Mississippi about 1,500, South Dakota 250. If I lived in any one of those beautiful states, I would not be writing this article. But I live in New York––home to about one-million, 800-thousand Jews––so the politics of being Jewish affects me and my family […]
Here’s an old, irrefutable chestnut: If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging! But Regressives refuse to learn that lesson and are yet again falling into the chasm of a trap President Trump has set for them. Listen to the uproar the mostly-leftist media bleat every minute of every day: Why aren’t the president […]
By Joan Swirsky If the upcoming presidential election on November 3, 2020, were not so serious, it would be downright hilarious just watching the Democrats twist themselves into pretzels in their efforts to project onto President Trump their own lengthy and shameful record of racism. As Bill Federer of AmericanMinute.com has exhaustively documented:• In 1857, the Supreme […]
On Christmas Eve in 2009, 60 Senate Democrats cast their final votes to approve Obamacare, which was finally voted on again by the House and enacted into law on March 23, 2010. It was only two months into Barack Obama’s first term when they magically produced the exhaustively detailed, 2,300-page bill. But it turns out it wasn’t magic. The leftists in Congress (Democrats) had all been working on their long-yearned-for […]
Hillary Clinton––The Human Spittoon Writer’s note: I wrote the following article last year, but it now appears that Hillary’s mental condition and pathological desperation have devolved. Just this week, she accused the leftist presidential candidate, Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI)––a combat veteran and Major in the Hawaii Army National Guard––of being a “Russian asset” groomed to […]
Not long ago, I received a lengthy e-mail – “Why We Must Renew Our Commitment to the Civil Rights Movement” – from a woman named Melanie Roth Gorelick, who identified herself as Senior Vice President of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA). Honestly, I thought it was one of the preposterous spoofs of that satirical publication, The […]
Thou shalt not kill.” Exodus 20:13 ”…I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live:” Deuteronomy 30:19 Remember good ole boy Johnny Edwards—actually North Carolina Democrat Senator John Edwards (1998-2012), VP candidate in 2004, and presidential candidate in 2008? Edwards is hard to forget […]
When individuals kill themselves, we look for answers in their DNA, their environments, their personal reactions to feelings of impotent rage, rejection, disappointment, heartbreak. But how to explain group suicide? Wikipedia lists numerous cases, starting in 206 B.C., and these relatively recent cases: In 1943, in the final phase of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, many of the Jewish fighters […]
Well, whaddya know? In the midterm elections of November 6, 2018, the American people rewarded the president––for only the third time in almost a hundred years––with a net gain of three and possibly four Senate seats, lost half the House seats that his predecessor lost, and left the radical leftwing Democrats not rejoicing at their […]
This past Saturday morning, 11 Jews were shot to death in a Pittsburgh synagogue by one of the millions of Jew haters who contaminate our world. To Jews like me, who know and appreciate Jewish history as I do, this is no surprise. Tragic, yes; shocking, no. We are a tiny, indeed microscopic, people, only […]
The Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus that I attended in my youth showcased acts like the freak show in which people with all sorts of bizarre physical features would attract millions of morbidly curious wide-eyed visitors. But even Tom Thumb and the Siamese twins, the bearded lady and the dog-faced boy, and the head […]
