Stand Up, Speak Out, Fight Back!

Liberals habitually call just about everything racist these days except for each other and with the hyper-sensitivity on college campuses and the demands for all white liberals to be guilt-ridden over their imaginary privilege, even that’s not a rock-solid defense anymore. If everybody and everything is racist, then how do you define racism? If the […]
If you are a conservative who has never been to San Francisco, it can be easy to wonder what the attraction would be to such a liberal city. However, San Fran has a lot of amazing features. It has terrific weather, some of the best food I have ever eaten, a unique look because of […]
These days, humorless liberals are famous for screaming some version of, “That’s not funny!” at people, but Dave Chappelle’s new special “Stick & Stones” seems to be bothering them more than normal. Vice wrote a whole piece advising people not to watch it. Comedy writer Timothy Michael Jennings encouraged people not to watch the special […]
When you are talking about Donald Trump, you’re talking about a billionaire playboy whose name has been synonymous with wealth and success in America since the eighties, a motivational book author, a reality TV star, and the world’s most prominent tweeter. In other words, he is a unique figure and if Republicans like Mitch McConnell, […]
Modern liberalism is a toxic influence on our culture, on our country, and on the world. There are perfectly nice, likable, relatively reasonable (at least when it comes to their own lives) liberals out there. I’ve met them and genuinely like some of them. But liberalism is becoming pure arsenic being pumped into the veins […]
Given that 49% of Democrats think that Trump voters are racist and everyone from the news media to Democratic presidential contenders continues to claim that Trump said that white supremacists at Charlottesville were “very fine people,” despite the fact that he clearly said exactly the opposite, it is inevitable that some people will falsely accuse Donald Trump of […]
One of the people I follow on Twitter, Hunter Drew, did a tweet giving his opinion on how women could be better mothers and it inspired so many angry comments from women that it merited a cheeky article from the large British paper, the Sun. How to be a better mother: – Be feminine– Wear […]
After the El Paso and Dayton shootings at the end of last week, a friend of mine was asking how we can “pull young men out of the 4chan/8chan toxic cesspool.” It seems like a natural question since the El Paso shooter was the third mass murderer linked to 8chan. This has led to numerous people calling […]
In a world where people waste money on $5 cups of coffee, $67,000 2nd electric cars just to impress the neighbors and $1,000 cell phones that give them no benefit whatsoever other than being slightly newer than their last working cell phone, there is no bigger waste of money than a huge wedding. Keep in […]
There is no shortage of extremely bad ideas that have been embraced by some or all in the Democratic field. Reparations, guaranteed income, guaranteed jobs, paying off student loan debt, a $20 minimum wage, Medicare for all – it just goes on and on. However, even though it’s extremely early in the presidential primary process, […]
In recent years, we’ve seen more conspiracy theories getting traction and they’ve also started to become more mainstream. Maybe they’re not entirely off the fringes yet, but I doubt if there is a person reading this that hasn’t heard of Alex Jones, Pizzagate and the idea that you shouldn’t give your children vaccines because they […]
The Democratic Party that my grandfather belonged to no longer exists in any meaningful sense. Today, the Democratic Party is run, financed and driven by radical, hate-filled people who love socialism and hate conservatives, Christians, men, white people and America itself. Those are mainstream beliefs among the Party elite. Yes, there are plenty of Democrats […]
Left-wing radicalism and violence is nothing new. Just as Democrats in the KKK that thought they were justified in lynching black men who supported those awful Republicans or liberal terrorists in the sixties felt justified in murdering or bombing people they disagreed with, there are liberals today that feel justified in using violence against their […]
Liberals are incessantly telling us that white supremacy is a major problem in the United States and they’d be absolutely right if this were the 1920s when Klan membership was over 4 million people and the KKK was able to gather 25,000 members to walk through DC. That number is even more staggering when you […]
Liberalism is… 1) …a dork calling you a fascist right before he gets together with a large group of his mask-wearing friends to smash windows and violently attack random strangers 30-to-1 in an effort to silence and intimidate everyone he disagrees with. 2) …someone who chants “2, 4, 6, 8… America was never great!” at […]
When liberals compete with each other, the “winner” inevitably comes down to who can portray themselves as the biggest victim, who can claim to be the most offended & who’s the most willing to spend other people’s money to try to buy votes. In the competitive 2020 field, that final metric has produced a push […]
Glenn Reynolds is the author of the new book, The Social Media Upheaval, the man behind Instapundit, and a University of Tennessee law professor. The two of us had a great discussion about a number of topics that you can listen to here or down below. One of the things we discussed was whether we’re […]
Ben Shapiro’s new book is called, “The Right Side of History: How Reason and Moral Purpose Made the West Great.” The book goes into detail about the religious, cultural and philosophical forces that made America successful and newer ways of thinking that are leading us towards ruin. The book is full of interesting quotes and […]
I was pleased to interview Glenn Reynolds in the latest edition of Planet Hawkins. Glenn Reynolds is the author of the new book, The Social Media Upheaval, the man behind Instapundit, and a University of Tennessee law professor. The two of us discussed breaking up the tech giants, whether social media is making us crazy, […]
Will and Ariel Durant’s ‘The Lessons of History‘ is a book that I’ve heard recommended by a number of successful people and after reading it, it’s easy to see why. Although the book is short and easy to read, it can teach you an enormous amount about human nature. So much of what we think […]
David French is an outstanding lawyer who has fought for Christian causes in the court system, an Iraq vet with a bronze star and is one of the best conservative columnists in America. You can read his writing at Time and National Review. I interviewed him for the Planet Hawkins podcast and one of the […]

As the Democrats running for president compete to represent the most radically socialistic ideas, it’s not surprising that reparations for slavery have once again come up. Sheila Jackson Lee has a reparations bill and other Democrats like Bernie Sanders, Tulsi Gabbard, Julian Castro, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, and Elizabeth Warren are supporting it. Currently, the […]
One of the subjects Matt Lewis and I talked about on Planet Hawkins #13 was sex robots. What follows is slightly edited for readability’s sake transcript of our conversation about the subject. Matt Lewis: I feel like technology is going to solve some of this problem with sex robots. They’re coming, man. They are…there’s going […]
You may have seen my friend Matt Lewis on CNN, seen him on Twitter, read his book, Too Dumb to Fail or heard his popular Matt Lewis and the News podcast. We talked about a variety of things including sex robots, prostitution, unmarriageable men, marriage & the #metoo movement. I think you’ll really enjoy the […]
I’ve been a fan of Jonah Goldberg’s writing for many years. The man is an outstanding writer, arguably the best conservative columnist in the business and he’s done some great books, most notably Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning. The name most people associate with […]
When I was a teenager, my father bought me a computer. Without a hard drive. Yes, that could happen way back in the day and what it meant was that I could spend hours typing in code to create a game and it would disappear the moment you turned it off. Needless to say, even […]
My buddy Kurt Schlichter’s Kelly Turnbull series (Indian Country, People’s Republic & Wildfire) is the best conservative fiction put out in the last decade. The books cover what would happen if we were to have another American Civil War and the nation were to split into a red and blue half. The hero of the […]
It’s hard to judge Donald Trump’s prospects in 2020 in no small part because so many political commentators, myself included, got it wrong in 2016. So, with that in mind, how do you evaluate his strength in 2020? At first glance, Trump looks weak. His approval rating has consistently hovered at 45% or lower in most polls […]
A lot of men look at the #MeToo Movement as a movement that started out well but went too far. During my Planet Hawkins interview with Matt Walsh, he disagreed and said it was bad from start to finish. Enjoy a slightly edited version of our conversation, John Hawkins: Matt, you said the #Metoo Movement wasn’t just […]
