Liberalism is easy to grasp, flattering to man’s vanity, and largely false. Whereas conservatism, although offering a much better view of political reality, is harder to understand and downright insulting to man’s vanity. Which do you think people will be inclined to choose?

Young people may not remember that when Reagan proposed to shoot incoming missiles out of the sky in 1983, just about the entire left claimed it was impossible. Tonight hundreds of missiles are being shot out of the sky over Tel Aviv. Pray the shield holds.

I suppose it can’t hurt to repeat this again: If you do not invest in honoring the national and religious traditions of your people and transmitting them, nothing that you believe will remain. It will all be overthrown.

I use my words to say things that I believe are important. If I don't have alternative terms available, then you will just have to live with the fact that I don't use terms the way that you want me to.

Unanimous ruling by a federal court of appeals: A congressional chaplain may require that each day open with a religious prayer. This custom is one of the last reminders of the conservative republican government that the Americans established in 1789.

I've been off-line since December and hope to stay off for a while. But I want to say a few words about US involvement in the Mideast in the wake of the deaths of US soldiers in Iranian-backed attacks near the Syrian border with Jordan. 1. I've said repeatedly that US soldiers…

In 2016, the editor of a U.S. Jewish magazine told me that he wouldn’t publish essays critical of mass immigration because “it’s my civil religion.” Now his brain-dead “civil religion” has made life in America and Western Europe a nightmare for Jews.

Liberalism starts as a political theory in the head of a man who never married, never had a family. Gradually, it becomes the software running in the minds of others, demolishing one family after another. Then millions of families.

In high school and college, I was on debate teams in which we learned how to defend *both* sides of every political issue. I can't imagine what debating clubs must be like today--now that only one side is accepted as legitimate. Do debate clubs even still exist?

I sympathize. Christmas didn’t make me happy when I was in the US either. But I choose to live in Israel where the holidays are from the torah. You *choose* to live in America. Why would you want to tell the Christian majority how “wearying and alienating” their holiday is?

(For the record, I always say "Thank you. You, too." But the omnipresence of Christmas for a whole month is deeply wearying and alienating to some of us who do not celebrate. If you want me respect you, please respect me, too.)

By making blue checks available to everyone, @elonmusk has initiated a democratic revolution against a ruling elite. The blue check really was a symbol of their power. Losing it mocks their vanity and wounds their pride.

My blue check is gone, and so am I. Thanks for everything, guys. You’re amazing, and it was a good ride until Elon got the keys. You can find me on Instagram (georgehahn), TikTok (georgehahnnyc) or Post (george). I’ll be back when an adult starts running the asylum.

The Bible doesn’t appear in most high school and college curricula because it’s prestige has been utterly destroyed and most educated people are embarrassed to be associated with it.
