The trial of Kyle Rittenhouse has not gone the way many in the media expected it to go and, on Friday, weekday afternoon CNN Newsroom host Ana Cabrera and legal analyst Areva Martin had a theory as to why: Judge Bruce Schroeder. In a tiresome fashion, the duo tossed several pejoratives Schroeder’s way on Friday including “controversial,” “bigoted,”

I have been obsessed with the Rittenhouse trial and I have been watching it intently (while screaming at the screen intermittently). How has this injustice gone on for so long? This trial should have been over days ago, but it’s still going and I am here to break it down for you. In part one
Over the years since all of the environmental idiocy began in the late 1960s, we’ve heard dire predictions of the polar ice melting and the oceans flooding all coastal areas, inundating New York and Miami, and drowning millions of people. The Mediterranean Sea was also reported to be dying, with all of its life-supporting nutrients

One of the first things Joe Biden did upon taking office was to kill the Keystone XL pipeline. Since then, gas prices have gone up, which has increased the price of goods and labor. When Biden took office, our country was energy independent. It no longer is, and Biden, rather than acknowledging his role in
The students union of Durham University in England promoted a sex work training course offered by the university in an email to all students and staff, the Independent reported. “The SU position on students in sex work are [sic] clear: support, informed advice, de-stigmatization and collaboration with expert organizations,” read the email, according to the
I’m a huge fan of Allahpundit over at Hot Air but don’t find his post speculating about Christie’s motives in attacking Trump very persuasive. Is he angling to be bought off into a future Trump cabinet position, or maybe even Trump’s VP? I think Christie was genuinely appalled by Trump’s post-election conduct, is saying what
The inflation crisis has gotten so bad that multiple liberal outlets are now admitting that it spells disaster for President Joe Biden’s economic agenda. CNBC published an eye-opening piece headlined, “Inflation has taken away all the wage gains for workers and then some.” The story analyzed that “Real average hourly earnings when accounting for inflation,
An analysis by the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, a nonpartisan think tank run jointly by the left-wing Urban Institute and Brookings Institution, shows that 20-30 percent of Middle-Class families will pay more in taxes in 2022 if Joe Biden’s $1.75 trillion spending boondoggle passes. It’s not a lot more — a $100 increase over last
For more than a half century, the post-1960s Democratic Party has employed a strategy of using Critical Theory and Identity Politics to foment an intense loathing of Republicans. The success of that strategy was illustrated by an angry liberal voter in the lead-up to the 2020 elections. With white hot hatred oozing from every fiber
A woman receives a coronavirus vaccination, at Jordan Downs in Los Angeles, Calif., March 10, 2021. (Lucy Nicholson/Reuters) ABC News asks, “Vermont has the highest vaccination rate in the country. So why are cases surging?” Vaccination prevents severe reactions, not infections. A high vaccination rate should reduce deaths and hospitalizations and other severe reactions, but
In 1958, British sociologist Michael Young coined the term “meritocracy” in his satirical novel, called “The Rise of the Meritocracy.” Its point was simple: When intelligence and effort are selected by any society as the basis for success or failure, those with such merit begin to comprise their own class. That class hardens into an
Joe Biden had every reason to expect pushback when he announced a federal vaccine mandate on private companies with 100+ employees, and he got it. Republican governors and attorneys general promised to fight the mandate in court, and they have. As a result, the mandate was temporarily blocked by the U.S. Court of Appeals for
Median home prices surged in the third quarter of 2021 in almost every housing market in the U.S., the National Association of Realtors said in a report Wednesday.

The United States government is warning against rules the European Union has drafted that could risk companies’ intellectual property and trade secrets. According to Reuters, the Digital Markets Act (DMA) sets out a list of things companies can and cannot do that would be enforced by a fine of up to 10% of global turnover.
In 2020, many believed that Joe Biden was more of a Trojan Horse than the candidate Democrats actually wanted. After twice electing Barack Obama, was the Democratic Party really excited about voting for another old white guy? Establishment Democrats likely understood that Biden was a means to an end—someone “electable” compared to the radicals who
Officials asked U.S. citizens to make plans to leave Haiti because of increased gang violence and kidnappings, the U.S. Embassy in Haiti announced on Wednesday.

U.S. citizens were encouraged to purchase commercial flights out of the
In response to Democrats’ Spending Bill Breaks Biden’s Tax Pledge, Analysis Finds Phil notes that the Tax Policy Center, a project of the liberal-leaning Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute, finds that the House Democrats’ reconciliation bill would violate Biden’s pledge that no one earning less than $400,000 would see his taxes increase by a
The leftist U.K.-based Center for Countering Digital Hate just launched a broadside attack against nine conservative digital outlets with its “Toxic Ten” report. The report aimed to silence entire outlets for writing stories that don’t follow the leftist climate policy narrative. The hyperbolic report used data out of context to make it appear that users
The president was in Baltimore on Wednesday touting his infrastructure bill, which, he says, will create jobs, reduce the deficit, cure inflation, fix supply-chain problems, heal the sick and raise the dead. Perhaps those last two were a slight exaggeration — but no more so than his delusional thinking on what infrastructure spending will do.

On Wednesday afternoon, Loudoun County parents, via the organization Fight for Schools, filed their petition to recall their corrupt, radical leftist school board after the members and the superintendent tried to cover up a rape in a girl’s bathroom by a “gender-fluid” boy wearing a skirt. It was the latest development in a county that
Let us note this moment in time when the devolution of self-defense came to this:Mr. Rittenhouse, I remind you that you’re under oath. Shouldn’t you have let him kill, maim, bash, stomp, thwack, shoot, roundhouse kick, jab, or connect with that haymaker before you pulled your trigger? This is where we are. You won’t find
The Justice Department today filed a lawsuit against Uber Technologies Inc. (Uber) for charging “wait time” fees to passengers who, because of disability, need more time to enter a car.

My latest New York Post column: Silverstein now frames the Times retreat under fire as a “clarification.” Hannah-Jones, who has not written a bylined piece in the Times in over a year, continues on Twitter to aggressively defend the claim and keeps trying to dig up historical support — an implicit admission of the homework
