What's the root cause of the rise in what many see as anti-Semitic sentiments on college campuses these days? Tabia Lee, my guest at TGS this week and a former DEI official in California, has a hypothesis that makes sense to me. It's the DEI ethos! Here's a clip making her point.

As a man of the West, I inherit its great traditions. Tolstoy is mine, Einstein is mine, Newton is mine, Franklin, Hamilton, and Adams are mine! They're yours, too, no matter your skin color.

This week at TGS I speak with Tabia Lee, a former DEI official at De Anza Community College in Cupertino, CA, about how college diversity bureaucracies are dealing with Jewish people's concerns about anti-Semitism. It's an eye-opener! Here's a clip.

African Americans are now the wealthiest, most prosperous population of black people in history. Don't tell me the American Dream isn't possible for us—we're living it.

I'm curious how many of my followers—especially my younger followers—know about Václav Havel, the great Czech playwright and freedom fighter. He's one of my heroes. Read his essay "The Power of the Powerless"—it'll blow your mind and change your life!

You can call Trump a clown if you want to, but "Make America Great Again" is the mantra of the party that will shortly control the federal government. It's time to face reality: he's running the show.

Here are two economic truths people don't want to hear. First, taxing wealthy individuals and corporations won't slow inflation. That solution makes no economic sense. And second, solving the deficit problem is going to mean taxing the middle class, which no politician wants to do.

Trump seems to want to end the Ukraine War, and I'm all for it. Negotiating a ceasefire means dealing with Putin. That's the reality. So when Trump's critics whine about Trump "talking to a dictator," I have to wonder if they have any interest in peace at all. How else are you going to get it except by negotiating with Putin?

Black slaves built this country. But so did Jews, the Irish, the Italians, and every other group who came here at the bottom and worked their way up. The sin of slavery doesn't explain why African Americans STILL have so much work to do.

My guest at TGS this week is controversial Univ. Penn. law professor Amy Wax who has been severely disciplined by a committee of the Faculty Senate for creating a "hostile learning environment." Her principle offense? Repeatedly making true but unsettling statements of fact!
