Less than 20 minutes after President Donald Trump was sworn in, the Washington Post declared that the campaign to impeach President Trump had already begun. It was neither the first nor the last time impeaching Trump was floated during his presidency, and just as soon as Democrats won back control of the House, they pursued their

President Joe Biden said Monday he did not “see any of” Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearings, despite the White House previously stating he had watched portions of it. “I didn’t get a chance to see any of it,” Biden told reporters when asked if he had watched the hearings. White House spokesman Chris Meagher

Social media was naturally in a stir after Will Smith slapped fellow actor Chris Rock at the annual wokefest that is the Oscars last night. Not surprisingly, sports talk show host Stephen A. Smith had his opinion on the matter, and you can be darn sure that he let the world know his two cents

With gas prices up 50% in the last year, natural gas more than double its pre-pandemic price, and electricity price hikes far outpacing the official inflation rate, Democrats argue that there’s no time like right now to switch to alternative energy sources. About that. The US Solar Supply Chain is Under Attack. Before we get

U.S. allies distanced themselves from President Joe Biden’s declaration Saturday that Russian President Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power.” “For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power!” Biden said in a speech in Poland. The White House quickly walked back Biden’s remarks moments after his speech ended, stating the president was not discussing regime

Notre Dame Main Building ( ReDunnLev/Getty Images) Tomorrow evening, I’ll be out at my alma mater Notre Dame to debate feminist attorney Jill Filipovic on the resolution “Legal Access to Abortion is Necessary for the Freedom and Equality of Women.” (I’ll let you guess which side of the resolution I’ll be taking.) She and I

On CNN’s Reliable Sources, host Brian Stelter got an unwelcome surprise when his guest CNN commentator and host S.E. Cupp brought up Hunter Biden’s laptop when replying to Stelter complaining that Ginni Thomas’s text messages didn’t get enough news coverage. Stelter was clearly thrown off guard by Cupp’s mention of the laptop controversy. After debating the

The odds that Ketanji Brown Jackson would be confirmed were always in her favor, but after a year during which moderate Senate Democrats Joe Manchin (W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (Ariz.) repeatedly blocked Joe Biden’s radical agenda, there seemed to be a glimmer of hope that Jackson’s confirmation wasn’t a foregone conclusion in the evenly divided

Recently, another tale of woe landed in my inbox reminding that it’s a story old as time still being repeated more often you might believe. The scene: A weekend in the dead of winter. The family walks into the house expecting it to be warm and cozy, but one look at the thermostat tells them

A new law in the European Union would force Apple to allow sideloading and third-party app stores. According to The Verge, Apple would be prevented from requiring users to download apps in its own app store under the Digital Markets Act (DMA). Critics have alleged that this requirement categorized Apple as a monopoly. Lawmakers said

Conservatives have warned since the 2020 election that Biden wasn’t mentally fit to handle the presidency. The evidence was plainly visible, from past footage of his mental lapses to the plethora of gaffes he committed on the campaign trail. We knew that Biden didn’t have what it takes to be commander-in-chief, and in one week,

There is a common misconception in American society that charter schools are elite, private institutions reserved for those who have the money to pay for them. They are regarded by some as for-profit businesses whose main aim is to make money, not to educate the youth. This cannot be further from the truth. In fact,

The hearings into Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination to the Supreme Court are over, but reporters at the New York Times are still seething about her supposedly racist treatment at the hands of Republicans. They found some other voices that were angry as well for “How Black Women Saw Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court Confirmation

The collapse of Joe Biden’s presidency is a remarkable story that perhaps too few people appreciate. Biden took office with respectable approval ratings, but the goodwill of the American people was slowly squandered by his pursuit of a radical left-wing agenda and his general lack of competence in handling the key issues facing the country,

In December 1985, Ronald Reagan said on his weekly radio address that “Nicaragua was an imprisoned nation… condemned by a dictator in designer glasses.” Reagan was referring to Daniel Ortega, one of the leaders of the Sandinista movement and at the time, the first elected president of the newly democratic Nicaragua. Ortega had visited the

A woman who is five months pregnant attends a sonogram at a local hospital in Shanghai, China, September 12, 2014. (Carlos Barria/Reuters) There can no longer be any doubt: The international public-health establishment has gone absolutist on allowing abortion at any time, for any reason, without restrictions of any kind.

Well that didn’t age well. In the wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union,  CBS compared newly independent states like Ukraine to annoying brats running away from home. Of course, the bizarre 1991 commentary came from the late Andy Rooney.  On the September 29, 1991 60 Minutes, Rooney began, “Who would have thought a

I can remember watching the Oscars, the Emmys, and the Grammy Awards when I was a kid. It seemed like something that everyone did, and you could pretty much count on there being people with whom to talk about it the next day at school. However, somewhere along the way, awards shows became unwatchable and

“Why do you always talk about capitalism and not the market economy? The mere mention of the word capitalism turns so many people off.” It’s a critical question that I have often been asked. First of all: Yes, it’s true. For many people, “capitalism” has a bad ring to it, probably all over the world.

. . . our nonjudgmental pope. “Pope Francis Laments War in Ukraine Without Taking Sides,” says the Wall Street Journal headline. The article suggests that the pope doesn’t want to offend the Russian Orthodox authorities and fears being seen as an instrument of U.S. foreign policy. Understandable, I suppose, but, here’s the thing: Unlikely though

The Associated Press (AP) was blasted by conservatives and Republicans on Friday for a story (and tweet) on Ketanji Brown Jackson claiming Democrats just want the Supreme Court to look “more like America,” while Republicans think “Jackson brings too much empathy to the job.”  This was the tweet: Democrats praised President Joe Biden’s choice of

I can still remember when Justice Antonin Scalia died. I’d just returned home from California when I got the alert on my phone. His death was unexpected, and I was immediately overcome with fear and panic. Justice Scalia was one of the most influential members of the court, an originalist and a textualist. He once

Some high-profile names have already created alternatives to Facebook, Youtube and Twitter. Jason Miller, Donald Trump, and Dan Bongino all have social media apps online and now Elon Musk may add another into the growing mix. Elon hinted at a new platform in a series of tweets on Saturday that questioned Twitter’s support for free

Pro-LGBT demonstrators display the rainbow flag at a pride march in Katowice, Poland, September 5, 2020. (Grzegorz Celejewski/Agencja Gazeta via Reuters) A few years ago, “she/her/hers” appended to an email signature might have prompted questions. Today, it’s fairly common.

Comedians are falling into three distinct camps when it comes to Cancel Culture: Some don’t address the subject at all. Perhaps they think it doesn’t apply to them, or they hope the woke mob won’t knock on their door for past or present jokes. A second group, think Chrissie Mayr, Tyler Fischer, Ryan Long and

North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un is reported to love Hollywood movies, especially Jackie Chan flicks. If true, this might explain what is perhaps the most bizarre video ever released by any country’s leader. In the nearly 12-minute-long video of Kim comically directing the launch of his country’s latest ICBM, the Hwasong-17, while stirring — and
