“Soccer’s coming home,” they sing, to the tune of the Skinner and Baddiel classic. It’s a chant of choice for American fans ahead of the World Cup showdown, poking fun at their English opponents. We heard it from the crowd watching the University of Maryland take on Fairleigh Dickinson University. The gag is, of course,
Last month, the Iranian Majles, or parliament, voted overwhelmingly to teach the protesters a “hard lesson.” The lawmakers compared the demonstrators to ISIS terrorists. There are now 14,000 protesters filling Iranian jails but despite the bloodcurdling rhetoric from the lawmakers, few expect the government to engage in mass executions. But nothing should be considered off
If I ever have children, they will never darken the door of a public school. Parents who choose to homeschool can provide a much higher caliber of education than a public school, plus their kids won’t be subjected to a barrage of unbiblical left-wing ideology. I’m thankful that I spent hardly any time attending public
When dwelling on political ephemera and dealing with the tribulations that crop up in our day-to-day, it can be easy to lose sight of the bigger picture and, with that occasional loss of cosmic focus, perhaps also easy to lose hope. After all, we have much to concern ourselves with and much that might prompt
New York Times economics columnist Paul Krugman has a knack for propping up President Joe Biden’s atrocious economy at the expense of making himself look foolish. Krugman belched up another word salad worth 846 words with a blaring headline: “How Democrats Can Fight This G.O.P.” After haranguing Republicans for supposedly not having “policy ideas,” Krugman
Chair of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Bill Gates delivered multiple updates on the status of the 2022 Election in the county during the delayed counting of the ballots.

If Arizona is genuinely interested in enacting much-needed state election reforms—and it should be, especially after this month’s voting debacle in Maricopa County, the state’s largest—it’s now or never. Or at least for the next four or eight years. Term-limited outgoing Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, a Republican, should call a lame-duck special session of

Remember “funemployment?” That was a concept introduced during the Obama administration during 2009 to make people feel better about rampant unemployment by portraying it as a fun thing. Well, flash forward to the inflationary era of 2022 during the Biden administration and National Public Radio has come up with something similar. Not the “Whip Inflation Now”
Many Americans suspect the Left of fudging elections to turn out improbably high numbers of Democrat votes, but nothing ever happens to fix it.

“A Husband for Thanksgiving” may sound like the title of a cheesy, old-time Hallmark movie, but this year, it’s instead a headline that applies to my own life.

After literal years of mindlessly repeating the White House line about the “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” those stenographers of the state in the corporate media are quietly relenting to actual data since they’re no longer able to maintain the lie and any shred of credibility. “It’s no longer a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” reads the WaPo

Many centuries before the autumn 1621 meal in Plymouth between the colonists and the Wampanoag, another kind of Thanksgiving feast took place in Israel — and it quietly set the stage for the most important week in human history.

Inflation under Biden has reached 40-year highs. But Biden wants Americans to believe that this isn’t the case. It’s difficult to do because the average hardworking American sees what’s left from their paychecks every pay period and it’s not as much as under President Trump. Last year the Biden Administration told us to quit our
This week, another evil mass shooter unleashed horror at a gay club in Colorado Springs, killing five and wounding another 25.
