Liberals take great pride in their supposed openmindedness. Yet when it comes to hot-button issues like radical Islam, global warming, and abortion, "openminded" liberals go to great lengths to discredit and suppress the ideas of their opponents. Breitbart senior editor Joel Pollak exposes the 19 key ideas that today's liberals are desperate to suppress, revealing the blatant hypocrisy of leftwing leaders and pundits who preach tolerance but practice intolerance.

Win or lose, Trump brought several unique qualities to the presidency that his successors ought to emulate. I explore these qualities—these virtues—in a new book, The Trumpian Virtues: The Lessons and Legacy of Donald Trump’s Presidency. I begin by reviewing the history of Trump’s first term in a step-by-step account, organized 100 days at a time. Then I turn to the Trumpian virtues themselves, the unique approaches that our 45th president has brought to the nation’s highest office, which have helped him succeed, and which could help him—and other presidents—in the future.

From the moment Donald Trump announced his candidacy for the White House until very late on election night, media and pollsters kept insisting Trump wouldn't - couldn't - be president. But for Larry Schweikart - one of a ragtag group of amateur politicos called the "Deplorables", who had been publishing shockingly accurate polls and predictions, and Joel Pollak, a senior editor at Breitbart News following Trump on the campaign trail - Trump's 2016 win was a near certainty.

Zionism is the political and cultural movement to establish Jewish self-determination in the Land of Israel. It is one of the most astonishingly successful national movements in history: not only did it establish a democratic state in a hostile region, but that state—Israel—became one of the most prosperous, innovative, and vibrant societies in the world.

Through an exploration of the Book of Kings, and close study of the kings and prophets, we can learn valuable lessons, both political and personal, that apply today. The Book of Kings is a tragedy, the story of the decline and fall of the ancient kingdom of the Jews. From its height in the days of David and Solomon, to its division into Israel and Judah, and to its final defeat by Assyria and Babylonia, the Israelite monarchy faced constant challenges. Many of the kings were abject failures.

Johannesburg in the 1940s is an optimistic, thriving metropolis—one about to be torn apart by racial segregation. For South African Jews, it was a time of exhilaration, as the State of Israel was about to be born. But it was also a time of trepidation, as the National Party, which had opposed South Africa's entry into the Second World War, campaigned on an apartheid platform. One Jewish family, having found refuge in South Africa from Lithuania, launches a successful building enterprise. But the death of a sister sets two brothers against one another.

Before the U.S. embarks on a dangerous political journey, it should consider the lessons—both positive and negative—of South Africa's experience. This book draws on President Donald Trump's infamous alleged quip about "sh!thole countries." Though he denied making the profane comment, it is a useful shorthand for what neither the U.S. nor South Africa would wish to become, but which "transformation" could condemn them to be.

Clara is a high-powered Los Angeles corporate attorney, married to Dr. Nick Louis, an emergency room doctor on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic. They have a 14-year-old daughter, Bernice. But as their relationship has become strained, she has started an affair with Juan, a maintenance worker in her law firm's building -- with her husband's encouragement. Meanwhile, Nick and Bernice decide to escape the post-election dreariness with a daring trip to Argentina, maneuvering around coronavirus restrictions to see the total solar eclipse of December 14, 2020.

I will teach you the methods I use to generate large amount of written content in a relatively short period of time. One of my techniques, for example, is something I call "visual block" writing, in which I use paragraphs of equal length and width, usually eight per page. This approach helps create structure, and makes it easier to keep writing, rather than becoming stuck or dwelling too long on one point.

Liberalism won the "sexual revolution." But the revolutionaries are miserable. Americans are not only delaying marriage and having fewer children, but also having less sex in general, as the radical left brings politics back into the bedroom. Ironically, sex has become a potential conservative cause. Conservatism can remind us that sex is fundamentally about happiness.
