Catholic bishops may ask President Joe Biden to stop receiving communion if he continues to support and expand access to abortion in the United States. “Because President Biden is Catholic, it presents a unique problem for us,” said Archbishop Joseph Naumann of Kansas. “It can create confusion. … How can he say he’s a devout

The NFL draft starts Thursday night, and ESPN has practically turned the draft order of quarterbacks into a race war. Martenzie Johnson fired the first shot, calling the NFL a “racial institution,” in his ESPN blog post. Max Kellerman predicted an onslaught of white privilege in the draft, on the ESPN First Take TV program.

I’m looking forward to tonight’s State of the Union Address more than any sane or decent person should, but only because it’s snowing here on the Front Range so I’ll be breaking out one of the better scotches for tonight’s drunkblog. It ought to be lots of fun and I hope you’ll join me for

I made a rookie mistake. There’s no excuse for it. A few weeks ago I wrote this ridiculously optimistic article about the new marijuana laws in New York written and passed by Democrats.

Author Philip Roth poses in New York, September 15, 2010. (Eric Thayer/Reuters) The book publisher Norton has removed Blake Bailey’s biography of Philip Roth from publication. And already existing copies are disappearing from online booksellers. In the publishing world, this is monster news. Why is it being pulled from publication? Books are sometimes abandoned by

When the University of Chicago Press brought out Richard Weaver’s book Ideas Have Consequences in 1948, it was instantly hailed as a landmark text on American conservatism. The title itself has become a sort of rallying cry for the conservative intelligentsia. I’d wager that 98 percent of those who utter the phrase “Ideas have consequences!” have never

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Tuesday that the White House “respectfully disagrees” with the Catholic Church on the use of aborted fetal tissue for research.

When Donald Trump first said, “America will never be a Socialist country” the Left and their minions fumed. They knew he was committed to that from the start but he had finally said it to the public without apology. Trump’s stunning resilience resolve against their spying, booby traps, false accusations frame-ups and constant public humiliation

“Power to the People” was a chant used by anti-war and civil rights protesters in the ’60s. John Lennon wrote a song with that title in 1971. The idea flowed from the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution which begins, “We the people.” The concept behind that phrase was that the people, not the government, are

It’s known as an “Article V” convention and it would utilize the second constitutional device to amend our founding document. Article V allows for congressional passage of amendments that would then be sent to the states for ratification. Two-thirds of states must approve in order for ratification to be successful. But there’s another way to

ABC’s The Good Doctor is back with some bad political posturing. The April 26 episode, titled “Waiting”, takes place after a protest against an unnamed proposition turned violent with two young boys hit with bullets. During the surgery on one of the boys, some confessions shocked Dr. Claire Browne (Antonia Thomas). A liberal black doctor,

George Soros funding a new wave of radically lenient district attorneys across America to remake its justice system at the county level sounds like a right-wing conspiracy theory, but it’s true.

A federal agency has not explained who provided copies of Vice President Kamala Harris’ children’s book to migrant children at a facility in Long Beach, California.

As an “MSNBC Republican,” Elise Jordan well knows that her bread is buttered on the side of bashing conservatives. Jordan dutifully carries out her assigned role, reliably ripping non-Never Trumper Republicans. Jordan no doubt scored bonus brownie points with the MSNBC suits and Morning Joe hosts Friday. Because she managed to pull off the rare

The anti-science and politicized nonsense coming from the Biden administration and our health bureaucracy has been a feature, not a bug, during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A federal judge in Connecticut on Sunday dismissed a lawsuit by Alliance Defending Freedom against state policy allowing boys to intrude upon girls’ sports.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction,” the great Ronald Reagan once said. “We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our
