Dennis was brought to Washington, D.C. to debate those who claim Israel is an apartheid state that is committing genocide.

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?

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.
