Dinesh D’Souza: Margaret Sanger’s Racist Legacy

Commentary In my movies, “Hillary’s America” and “Death of a Nation,” I portrayed Margaret Sanger, the founder and longtime leader of Planned Parenthood, as an out-and-out racist.

The Nation Speaks (April 24): Election Reform Battle Lines; Racism Reality vs Perception; Pandemic’s Unexpected Impacts

Conservatives Confront Corporate Activism Georgia’s new election reforms were meant to address the long list of problems that plagued the 2020 election, particularly those caused by the sudden spike in absentee voting.

One Senator Voted ‘No’ Vote on Bipartisan Asian Hate Crimes Bill

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), the lone senator to vote against an Asian hate crimes bill on Thursday, said he could not approve the measure because the wording of the legislation was too broad and would infringe on the First Amendment.

The Toxicity of the Permanent Outrage Mentality

Commentary The conviction of disgraced former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin on both manslaughter and murder charges ought to be, at least in theory, a seminal moment for a country hoping to foster a greater civic unity and recoil from the tumultuous brink of a half-century nadir in racially charged acrimony. Sadly, early indications point…


The Left’s Systemic Exploitation of Race

Commentary When I occasionally complain about the Left politicizing race, fellow conservatives often say to me, “Don’t worry about this. They’ve lost all credibility on the issue, trivializing it by overuse. They’re getting no traction with it.” Oh? You’d have to be blind and deaf to deny that this tactic is working for the Left…

The Big Snitch Is Here—America Goes Stasi

Commentary Many, particularly those on the right, worry the United States is turning into China, but we are a Western nation coming out of a (mostly) Western tradition. I believe we should be as much concerned, if not more, that we are beginning to resemble East Germany with their State Security Service (Staatssicherheitsdienst), better known…


Sin of Planned Parenthood Is Abortion, Not Margaret Sanger

Commentary The president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Alexis McGill Johnson, has used The New York Times as a confessional to fess up to the racist history of Planned Parenthood’s founder, Margaret Sanger. “We must reckon with Margaret Sanger’s association with white supremacist groups and eugenics,” she writes. Sanger’s involvement with the notoriously racist…

The Biden administration is seeking to prioritize funding education programs that incorporate the ideas of the New York Times’ 1619 Project and critical race theorist Ibram X. Kendi into their teaching of U.S history and civics. In a proposed new rule released April 19, the Education Department outlined new priority criteria for a $5.3 million…


Will Derek Chauvin Verdict Be ‘Payback’ Like the O.J. Simpson Verdict? | Larry Elder

The trial of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis officer accused of murdering George Floyd, deserves jurors who come to their verdict based upon facts and the law. During the O.J. Simpson case, Larry said that some jurors did not care about the law or the facts, and he was right. In this episode, Larry proves,…
