Simone Biles’ withdrawal from the Toyko Olympics gymnastics competition shocked the world. Biles is the undisputed greatest ever in her sport. The Texan champion accomplishes moves that no one else would ever dare, and became so proficient and so dominant that the International Olympic Committee effectively punished her for it by refusing to score her

A healthcare worker prepares the Moderna coronavirus vaccine at a vaccination center in El Paso, Texas, May 6, 2021. (Jose Luis Gonzalez/Reuters) According to the CDC, 90 percent of Americans over the age of 65 have received one dose of the COVID vaccine, and 80 percent are fully vaccinated.

It’s not easy being Diane Lockhart in Season Five of Paramount+’s (formerly CBS All-Access) The Good Fight. The liberal feminist lawyer, a name partner in a well-established black Chicago law firm, is conflicted because of major attacks of white liberal guilt. She is struggling with two questions – should she step aside as a white
LANGUAGE WARNING BECAUSE… You know how I am. We know I can get a bit salty behind the paywall but I really went all out when I started talking about Anthony Fauci, who is rumored to be a physician. That guy kinda gets on my nerves. These days I have no interest in reining it
Beginning in March of last year, the most recent count of Covid deaths involving Minnesota minors stands at three. Broken down by group, one child was between the ages of 0-4 and two others were between the ages 5-9. Not a single child between the ages of 10-18 has been recorded to have died from
Bettina Love during a TEDx talk in 2014 (TEDx Talks/via YouTube) If you care about the battle over critical race theory (CRT) in the schools, you need to know about Bettina Love. The Biden administration recently got caught promoting a guidebook from her group, the Abolitionist Teaching Network (ATN). The booklet asks teachers to “disrupt
When the Pulitzer Prize Board announced in June that no one would receive its annual award for excellence in editorial cartooning, many political artists were outraged. The decision seemingly made no sense, especially since so many cartoonists thought they produced great work throughout a hectic year. The finalists themselves felt insulted. Ruben Bolling, one of
When it seemed like only a few of his colleagues were still outraged at the Biden administration’s decision to bring back indoor masking for much of the country (compared to the uproar on Tuesday), Fox News’s Peter Doocy sparred Thursday afternoon with White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and President Biden over the
I first started writing for PJ Media in the summer of 2015, as a creative outlet in addition to my full-time job. My previous work at National Review, The Washington Free Beacon, and The Christian Post gave me a nose for understanding what my fellow conservatives wanted to read, but PJ Media gave me the opportunity
Corporations were silent on why they chose to suspend political contributions to Republicans, but not Democrats who objected to election results. More than 15 major U.S. companies that announced they would suspend giving money to members of Congress following the Jan. 6 Capitol riot didn’t respond to requests for comment from the Daily Caller News
1. Further evidence we don’t listen to one another — this has never been a secret. Anti-choice extremists aren’t even hiding it anymore. They’re saying the quiet part out loud and trying to straight-up get the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade. They’ve always been extreme, but this is truly next-level terrifying. #SCOTUS —
You know what they say about broken clocks, right? Well one of the most beat to hell and worn out clocks in existence – washed up comedian and Trump family hater Michael Rapaport – actually made a good point. Recently, he took a shot at the leftists in government who are now recommending that vaccinated
For years, the left has insisted that manmade climate change is not only real but “the science is settled.” If you don’t believe in manmade climate change, you’re a climate denier who doesn’t believe in science. The discussion is over, and you are not to be taken seriously because of what “the science” says. “The
US COVID-19 deaths are at the lowest levels since March 2020, but alarmism over the “Delta variant” is nonetheless on the rise. Many parents are getting worried: Will teachers’ unions and government officials once again collude to close schools or otherwise restrict in-person learning this Fall? With this debate heating up, the results of a
(mj0007/Getty Images) It may seem that there’s no limit to how quickly the government can spend money, but that’s not really the case. Congress can send the money out to federal agencies, states, and localities, but sometimes the money just sits there in the accounts for a long while. Sometimes the bureaucracy is slow moving,
With the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) largely backing the CDC’s ridiculous reversal on the mask mandate that demands even the vaccinated to mask up again, and decrying those who would oppose it, the Biden administration was busy bussing and dumping COVID-infected illegal immigrants into American border towns without notifying local officials and without
Will We Ever Learn From History? My friend Carol Roth is back on the podcast to discuss her excellent and important new book, Carol gets deep into the unconscionable favoritism shown by our pandemic overlords to huge companies all the while they were cavalierly destroying the lives of American small business owners.

Despite crime continuing to skyrocket in major cities throughout President Biden’s America, his staunch allies in the broadcast networks were largely tight-lipped about it on their morning and evening newscasts. Not even the Monday assault and robbery of former Democratic Senator Barbara Boxer (CA) could shake Biden’s sentinels at ABC, CBS, and NBC. But interestingly,
The United States keeps data on COVID-19, but much of the tracking we should be most interested in now is what health care providers and patients report voluntarily. Vaccine breakthroughs and side effects rely on reports from providers and patients, so both are likely underestimates. The CDC decided not to collect data on all COVID-19
State attorneys general filed a notice Wednesday to appeal the dismissal of their antitrust complaint against Facebook. The complaint, filed by 48 state attorneys general and led by New York Attorney General Letitia James, was dismissed in June, along with a complaint brought by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

(Philippe Wojazer / Reuters) At long last, we have some details of the bipartisan infrastructure deal, courtesy of Politico. Congress will be expected to vote on a massive bill without reading it, and we know what that leads to: unintentionally creating new programs they didn’t know were there. On July 15, I wrote about how
Musician and peace and love enthusiast David Crosby is currently moonlighting as a bloodthirsty fascist who thinks about shooting people who promote politics he doesn’t believe in. Yeah sure, the first member of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young embodies that hippy lifestyle, though today it seems in a way less reminiscent of John Lennon and
In a few days, some of the programs authorized by Congress specifically to deal with the pandemic will expire. Some others will continue until the fall. Others will end well into 2022. Perhaps most notably, the CDC’s unconstitutional eviction moratorium is set to expire on July 31. The Supreme Court declared the program unconstitutional earlier

(Evelyn Hockstein/Reuters) Joe Biden wants Americans to trust the federal government to keep them safe and prosperous. Remember when leftists used to counsel against trusting the feds? I do.
Because there’s no anti-Republican insult too vulgar for the likes of John Berman and CNN, New Day devoted a segment this morning to mocking George P. Bush’s unsuccessful effort to get Donald Trump’s endorsement in the Republican primary for attorney general in Texas. Trump overnight endorsed George P.’s primary opponent, incumbent AG Ken Paxton. At one
Republicans have many reasons to be hopeful about the 2022 midterm elections. After all, the president’s party tends to lose seats in midterms, and the Democrats have been overreaching worse than Alexander the Great in India. However, conservatives cannot get too cocky. While the headwinds do favor the GOP in 2022, there are a few
