Back in March, President Biden appointed Vice President Kamala Harris to be the point person to handle the illegal immigration crisis on the U.S.-Mexico border. It’s now June and Harris is in Guatemala and has refused to visit the crisis zone and witness it firsthand. But she had little to worry about as NBC was

Facebook’s insane censorship practices have continued for long enough for at least one Republican senator.  Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) bashed Facebook’s hypocrisy regarding COVID-19 and its origin on the Fox News show Sunday Morning Futures. “[T]hese latest breakthroughs have real consequence because it now is clear that Facebook was operating at the direction of and

Dissenting doctors are punching back. Censorship of information that contradicted the narrative pushed by Dr. Fauci and other government health experts was one of the most horrific features of the pandemic response. Researchers and doctors with broader experience than Dr. Anthony Fauci were censored, attacked, and even threatened in some cases. There were calls to

The U.S. government recovered much of the cryptocurrency ransom payment worth approximately $4.4 million that Colonial Pipeline made to hackers last month, the Justice Department announced. U.S. law enforcement was able to track and seize the transaction back to a cryptocurrency wallet belonging to DarkSide, the eastern European group that conducted the cyberattack on Colonial

The events of the last few weeks have shown once again that, despite all the noise and shouting that mark our contemporary politics, what National Review says still matters. Our coverage of the lab leak theory, the Rebekah Jones saga, the continuing importance of the filibuster, and the counterproductive effects of the enhanced unemployment benefits

Does the “+” in Disney+ stand for LGBTQ+? If we go by Disney+’s brief history of constantly inserting the LGBTQ agenda into its many shows, the answer would likely be yes. And now the streaming service has featured a lesbian kiss among underage girls (possibly its first) in its “family” sports drama Big Shot that has a

I have been blogging about the Wuhan Institute of Virology lab as the source of the COVID-19 leak since last December 2019. Not only does it seem more likely that the virus came from that lab, but Xi refused to implement a Travel Ban for his Chinese people because of the Chinese New Year —

A New York Times “Covid News” update by Isabella Grullón Paz posted Friday reported that Florida will become the first state to no longer update its COVID-19 dashboard and cease its daily reporting on cases, deaths and vaccinations. With cases decreasing in the state, it will post weekly updates instead. But then Paz went into a

Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel wrote a three-page letter to the Commission on Presidential Debates, warning them that the GOP may boycott the 2024 presidential debates unless significant changes are made to the format and the rules. The 2020 debates were a fiasco and were rightly criticized by both Republicans and Democrats. The problem

National Review founder William F. Buckley Jr. (National Review) If you haven’t yet heard, National Review is currently holding an online fundraiser. Our new target is $100,000, and, as I write, we are 75 percent of the way there. Anything you can chip in will help us reach the finish line. Today, National Review remains

In another example of the New York-based national media thinking their local activities and politics were a concern for the rest of the country, ABC’s This Week featured chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl (because D.C. is apparently New York now) examining the race for mayor. And while he only looked at Democrats, he found it

Twitter suspended Dr. Naomi Wolf. She has been an outspoken critic of mass vaccination with a therapeutic that is technically still an investigational medication. All COVID-19 vaccines are distributed under an Emergency Use Authorization, which means that long-term safety data is not available for them. Wolf is not alone in being skeptical about the unparalleled

Last Friday, Senate Republicans successfully blocked the establishment of the January 6 commission, which would have been a 9/11-style commission whose primary intent was, according to a fact sheet released by the House Committee on Homeland Security, “investigating and reporting upon the facts and causes of the January 6 attack on the Capitol as well

Security personnel outside the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Hubei Province, China, February 3, 2021 (Thomas Peter/Reuters) As you have probably seen around the website this past week, we have been highlighting the brilliant work of Jim Geraghty and other writers who fearlessly reported the facts on hand without regard to the cultural zeitgeist. Most notably,

You’d think that after the Covington kids disaster and the Steele dossier calamity the American news media would get the message. Which is to say, report facts, not liberal narratives. But of course, ain’t happening. Over there at The Wall Street Journal, columnist Holman Jenkins had this to say on the latest self-inflicted media wound. His headline: 

Hong Kong has banned any commemoration of the Tiananmen Square uprising for the second successive year. The city-state that was once a beacon of freedom for the Chinese has been fully subsumed by the brutal communist state. Nice excuse, COVID, which originated in China and perhaps in a government lab there. It’s been used as

On Friday night, MSNBC host Brian Williams collaborated with the Lincoln Project in giving free publicity to the far-left Antifa terrorist group by shamelessly exploiting the Normandy invasion that was pivotal to defeating the Nazis in Europe. Williams — who still has not informed viewers of the Lincoln Project’s ethical problems — concluded the show

Last month, Facebook’s Oversight Board determined that “it was not appropriate for Facebook to impose the indeterminate and standardless penalty of indefinite suspension” on Donald Trump. On Friday, Facebook finally acted upon their recommendations and announced that its suspension of Trump will continue at least until January 7, 2023—which would be two years after his

On Wednesday, conservative talk show host Matt Locke opined on the contents of the emails of Dr. Anthony Fauci, which at the time had just been released after a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by Buzzfeed. “I want to talk about the big story that is currently going on today. And I’m going to

Being a celebrity comes with plenty of oh, so obvious perks. Fame. Fortune. Fan adoration. It also means everything you say gets magnified a hundred fold. Maybe more if your last name is Pitt or Kardashian. A more recent part of fame isn’t so welcome. You’re often expected to toe a certain political party’s line. Or
