A new report released from Johns Hopkins University shows that government-imposed lockdowns put in place in the United States and throughout the world as a response to COVID-19 were ineffective in preventing deaths.

How individuals and institutions react to Lia Thomas, the biological male who is allowed to compete in women’s college swim competitions, is a good indicator of people’s values and level of rationality.

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) last month proposed a budget that would give all illegal aliens health coverage.

Liberal network see, liberal network do! Monday on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, we caught NBC News presidential historian Michael Beschloss claiming he wasn’t comparing Donald Trump to Hitler — though he proceeded to do just that.

As a student of the EIB Institute and a Rush Baby, I feel I’m highly qualified to dig around in Rush Limbaugh’s archives and put together a response to the Joe Rogan controversy that the Doctor of Democracy would approve. In doing so, I have altered a few of his words to make them relevant
“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg apologized for her statement on Monday’s show, where she said “Holocaust isn’t about race.” “On today’s show, I said the Holocaust ‘is not about race, but about man’s inhumanity to man,’” Goldberg posted to Twitter. “I should have said it is about both. As Jonathan Greenblatt from the Anti-Defamation League
That’s how Max Borders titles his latest essay for AIER. In it, he ruminates on the raging battle between the crowd that insists on social control to “stop the spread of Covid” (and so much else) and the crowd that is fed up with the relentless nanny statism that is ruining their lives. I particularly
The Hershey Company has begun terminating employees who opted not to receive the COVID-19 vaccination. Alongside their termination, employees are asked to sign a nine-page confidentiality agreement that would waive their rights to sue the company or talk about their experiences with the company.

Inflation is at the highest levels in 40 years, and that means the price of feeding people at your Super Bowl party is going to skyrocket. According to a new analysis from economists at Wells Fargo, wings, pizza, and other favorite party foods will be about 8% to 14% more expensive than in 2021. “You’re
While both NBC’s Today show and CBS Mornings devoted full segments to the controversy swirling around View host Whoopi Goldberg’s offensive Holocaust comments, ABC’s Good Morning America completely ignored the incident that occurred on its own broadcast network. NBC and CBS hammered Goldberg’s argument that the Holocaust “isn’t about race” and even noted how her
At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, churches were some of the hardest-hit institutions in terms of crowd controls. Men and women were forced out of their places of worship by onerous government-imposed shutdowns, and it seemed like they were subject to additional restrictions that secular operations like liquor stores and massage parlors weren’t. In
Canadian demonstrators defend the human element that global elites would seek to mask, mandate, automate, and social-distance out of existence. Martin Scorsese angered global nerddom a few years ago by asserting that today’s comic-book movies don’t really count as cinema, since they don’t achieve the kind of “aesthetic, emotional and spiritual revelation” we associate with
Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar has announced that she will be seeking re-election in the 2022 election. Omar won the 2020 election with 64 percent of the vote. “When I first ran for this office there was one thing I kept coming back to. Something I said to myself and to the voters over and over:
Ryan Bourne of the Cato Institute explains why economists disagree on the causes and solutions for inflation. Here’s an excerpt: Put aside the baseless suggestions from politicians about the role of corporate greed or market concentration; economists such as Larry Summers and John Cochrane confidently claim that the problem was primarily too much macroeconomic stimulus being pumped

Whoopi Goldberg has apologised for comments about the Holocaust that were described by others as “devastating” and “dangerous”. The actor co-hosts ABC talk show The View and was part of a discussion about a US school board’s decision to ban Maus, a Pulitzer prize-winning graphic novel about the experiences of a Holocaust survivor. Goldberg, 66,
The pro-Biden media claim to be for “free speech” while they play up left-wing protests demonizing Spotify for airing Joe Rogan’s podcast. Seventies musicians Joni Mitchell and Nils Lofgren joined Neil Young in pulling their music from the streaming service…but it’s not about free speech, they say. Speaking of silly claims, CNN’s Brian Stelter did a
According to a new Rasmussen Reports survey, half of U.S. voters believe that Joe Biden should be impeached. Nearly as many think Republicans will pursue impeachment if they win back the majority in November, as they are expected to do. I’m skeptical that Republicans will do it, but some have hinted that impeachment is absolutely on

One day after leading their flagship Sunday morning talk show with the inconvenient statistic, ABC’s World News Tonight failed to cover their own poll showing an overwhelming majority of Americans disapprove of President Joe Biden limiting his search for a new Supreme Court Justice to just black women.

Trust in government has been declining since the administration of President Lyndon Johnson. According to Pew Research, only 36% of Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents and 9% of Republicans and those leaning Republican now trust government.

From the moment Alejandro Mayorkas was confirmed as secretary of Homeland Security in February 2021, the humanitarian emergency now wracking America’s southern border was inevitable.

Chuck Schumer’s leadership in the Senate has been a total failure. He failed to pass two of Biden’s key agenda items, the Build Back Better bill and the voter reform package.
