A government agency recently raided a man’s home and seized his pet squirrel, Peanut.

One year ago (on October 7, 2023), the deadliest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust occurred. Out of over 200 nations worldwide, only Israel faces a constant threat of annihilation. Despite claims, the Middle East conflict isn't about establishing a Palestinian state. Dennis reminds us that the ultimate goal of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran remains the destruction of Israel and wiping the Jewish state off the map.

An opinion piece in The New York Times recently accused Israel of committing “war crimes” for taking out Hezbollah terrorists by detonating explosives in pagers and walkie-talkies. If Israel drops bombs, they’re labeled mass murderers. If they target terrorists' communication devices, it’s a “war crime.” Is there anything Israel can do to defend itself against those who want to exterminate it? Learn more about your ad choices.

If Donald Trump is truly the “fascist Nazi” that many on the left claim he is, why wouldn’t you do everything possible to prevent him from gaining power? You can’t have it both ways—saying he’s a dictator that threatens American democracy but being relieved that an attempt to assassinate him failed.

On July 4, 1776, the Founders declared America's independence from Great Britain, initiating the greatest experiment in liberty in human history. However, with the decline of America’s education system, left-wing narratives like The 1619 Project, and the defamation of our Founding Fathers as nothing more than racist slave owners, the true significance of Independence Day is being forgotten by many Americans.

In 250 years of American history, this has never happened.

Every single death in Gaza is attributable to Hamas, not Israel—just as every dead German was because of the Nazis and Hitler, and every dead Japanese was due to the fascist regime in Japan during WWII. In both cases, the day Germany and Japan surrendered, the bombing stopped. The same is true today. If Hamas surrendered, not one more bomb would be dropped. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dennis was brought to Washington, D.C. to debate those who claim Israel is an apartheid state that is committing genocide. The left understands that if you say anything enough—no matter how crazy, absurd, or factually incorrect it may be—people will believe it. That is why they toss around terms like “racism,” “apartheid,” and “genocide” without any regard for their true meaning. The left is cheapening words, destroying language, and with it, truth itself.

According to a high school teacher, a student’s statement that “only women menstruate” is merely an opinion. Why are we told to “follow the science” but then mandated to ignore basic biology? As common sense takes a backseat to subjectivity, we are witnessing the death of truth in our culture.

Why don’t people fight obvious evils? If you can’t tell that Hamas is as evil as the Nazis were, it is because you refuse to do so. It’s easy to identify evil decades after the atrocities of the Nazis, Stalin, and Mao. The trick is to call out evil while it’s happening. You have a moral obligation to do so.

The New England Patriots have their first black coach in the team’s history.
