- His mother, Viola Elder (1924-2006), became a star, appearing on his nationally-syndicated talk show. He lovingly referred to her as the "Chief Justice", as he is, among many things, a lawyer who graduated from the University of Michigan Law School.
- Attended Washington Preparatory High School and later graduated from Crenshaw High School.
- Received his Bachelor's degree in political science from Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island (1974).
- Received his Juris Doctor from the University of Michigan Law School in Ann Arbor, Michigan (1977).
- He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Radio at 6270 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California on his 63rd birthday [April 27, 2015].
- The continuing anti-police abuse protests are a combination of cabin fever from weeks of the coronavirus shutdown, Trump Derangement Syndrome and the "cancel culture," more accurately described as the revenge culture. The revenge culture demands reparations from those who were never slave owners to be given to those who were never slaves.
- What today's social justice warriors complain about has little to do with "equal rights" and more to do with unequal results.
- If you're capable of reading this, you did not attend public school in Chicago.
- Education, by itself, is not the problem. The problem is something else: ideological certainty reinforced in environments where dissenting views are scarce.
- The public deserves scrutiny of Trump's inconsistencies, predictions and strategy. But it also deserves scrutiny of Iran's nuclear progress, intentions and capabilities. This is not too much to ask from a 'news analysis.'
