Column: The Poseurs Who Think They’re the Heroes Opposing Today’s Hitler

Dr. Pepper Nazi Hitler

Is there any political schtick more tedious now than comparing President Trump to Hitler? Politico posted an article noting Al Gore did this at a Climate Week event in San Francisco, and Real Clear Politics co-founder Tom Bevan tweeted with a smirk, “Gore says the same thing Democrats have been saying for a decade.”

The Democrats campaigned heavily in 2024 claiming Trump represented an end to democracy, and they lost the election. But it hasn’t slowed them down in the slightest.

David Hogg’s Days As DNC Vice Chair Are Numbered

David Hogg, the name synonymous with gun control theatrics, now holds a position of power as vice chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC). But does he have any idea what he’s doing? His latest move suggests that the answer is a resounding “no.” Instead of building the party, Hogg decided to launch a $20 million campaign to primary sitting Democrats in blue districts. You read that right. This dumb kid got himself elected as vice chair and now wants to spend millions to start a civil war within his own party.

Offer fake ‘academic refugees’ from U.S. a safe haven in Canada, profs urge party leaders

Hundreds of professors are asking Canadian federal party leaders to provide a safe sanctuary for “academic refugees” and safeguard freedoms, as American universities face mounting pressure from the United States government.

An open letter signed by more than 500 faculty members calls President Donald Trump’s attacks on U.S. schools a “crisis” that also affects Canadian education, research and funding.

The authors say the first priority for the next government should be to fix what they describe as chronic underfunding in the higher education system.

Because what we need is even more useless gender studies profs.

Mob that lynched Briton in Ecuador ‘too much for police to handle’

Ecuadorian police said “everything humanly possible” was done to prevent a British man from being lynched and burnt alive by a village mob in the Amazon rainforest.

The Playas del Cuyabeno police claimed that “the mob exceeded the capacity of seven police officers” tasked with protecting the visitor, who was believed to have moved from the UK and was killed in a revenge attack on Sunday.

The man, who has not been officially identified, was being held in a police station in the Sucumbios province of Ecuador on suspicion of shooting dead a man named locally as Rodrigo Chavez.

Al Gore draws parallels between Trump 2.0 and early Nazi Germany in speech

Al Gore said there were “important lessons” to be learned from similarities between the early rise of Nazi Germany and the recent actions of the Trump administration, in scathing comments made Monday during remarks about climate change.

During a speech at an event to mark the beginning of San Francisco’s Climate Week, the former vice-president and established climate advocate, said that the Trump administration was “trying to create their own preferred version of reality”, akin to the Nazi party during the 1930s in Germany, Politico reported.

“I understand very well why it is wrong to compare Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich to any other movement,” said Gore during his speech at the city’s Exploratorium museum.

What’s really behind Larry David’s vile attack on Bill Maher?

Well, it finally happened. Larry David had a full-on Curb Your Enthusiasm moment — not on HBO, but in the pages of The New York Times. His target? Not Donald Trump himself, but Bill Maher, for the unpardonable sin of… eating dinner with him.

Sadly, Mr. David has lost his fastball as a comedian. He fell back on the laughable and hackneyed ‘Hitler’ trope that really has no audience in American political culture except among the most unhinged Boomer liberals (why are the biggest left wing lunatics all so old these days?).

That’s right. The guy who once made millions lampooning the neurotic extremes of elite liberal culture has now decided to embody them. His op-ed was less a political argument than a dramatic public excommunication. Why? Because Bill Maher dared to sit at a table with a former president — a Republican one — and didn’t immediately flip it over.

Starmer does not believe trans women are women, No 10 says

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer does not believe transgender women are women, his official spokesman has said.

It comes after the UK Supreme Court ruled last week that a woman is defined by biological sex under equalities law.

In March 2022, when he was leader of the opposition, Sir Keir told the Times that “a woman is a female adult, and in addition to that transwomen are women, and that is not just my view – that is actually the law”.
