Packing the Supreme Court with several new liberals is massively unpopular with the American public, according to a respected polling firm on Wednesday. Will the networks who routinely parrot the talking points of Joe Biden, even bother to inform their viewers?  According to a Morning Consult/Politico poll, “by a nearly 2-to-1 margin, voters oppose allowing more

Sting sang: “If you love someone, set them free.” The Democrats don’t love America. They prefer to keep Americans locked down, masked up, and out of sight — unless we agree to hit the streets and riot. Remember last summer? If you wanted to go out to the park with your kid, you might get

To Americans today who are hailing Joe Biden as a “transformational” president, Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes’s Lucky is a sobering reminder of just how close Donald Trump came to being re-elected. By contrast, to those who view

The head of a Manhattan private school allegedly admitted privately that the school was demonizing white children, according to recordings of a conversation posted Tuesday, and a teacher has accused him of lying about his comments. Recordings published Tuesday allegedly feature Grace Church head George Davison expressing “grave doubts about some of the doctrinaire stuff

Woke television has apparently gone so far that not even black showrunners are safe from being cancelled. The latest shift comes courtesy of the L.A. Times condemning a supposedly growing rise of “black trauma porn.” On April 19, the Los Angeles Times ran an article decrying “media images of Black death” in recent shows and

Early this month, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) directed Florida to sue the Biden administration in court to overturn the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) “Conditional Sailing Order” locking down the cruise industry. This welcome move is extremely personal for me and my family. “To be clear, no federal law authorizes the CDC to

(Luisa Gonzalez/Reuters) Good for Canada — a sentiment I haven’t been able to make very often lately. But a Senate committee has unanimously passed a bill that would outlaw Canadians from entering the black

The former eight-term president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Agency, the organization that puts on the Golden Globes awards show every year, is in hot water for criticizing the Black Lives Matter movement.  The Hollywood Reporter wrote that Philip Berk, the former head of the HFPA and current member, is in “deep trouble” for spreading

Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Podcast This one is a little confusing if you didn’t listen to last week’s episodes. Jesse Kelly is my guest and we originally tried to record an entire episode last week but ran into technical difficulties. That would have been Episode 116, which ended up being about

The Texas State Senate passed a bill last week that would eliminate the practice of taxpayer-funded lobbying, and the House looks poised to pass it as well. Few states have enacted such statutes, making the Lonestar State one to watch in the coming weeks. This has been a long-running legislative effort, with a similar bill

(Screenshot via Twitter) Every jury trial operates on two levels: there is the serious question of what the verdict should be on the granular details of the evidence – not just who wins, but how much they get of what they are asking – and the broader risk of the jury doing something bizarre or

WASHINGTON, DC – MAY 18: U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry (C) speaks as Texas Public Policy Foundation President and CEO Brooke Rollins (L), news commentator Van Jones (2nd L), Senior White House Adviser and son-in-law of President Donald Trump Jared Kushner (3rd L),

On Saturday evening, CNN host Pamela Brown showed a classic double standard in her combative treatment of a Republican guest in contrast with her sympathetic reaction to a Democrat an hour later as she presided over segments to discuss possible new gun restrictions by Congress. According to Brown, the Second Amendment deprives us of our “right not

California was arguably America’s greatest success story, right up until it wasn’t. It might be difficult or impossible to pinpoint the exact moment that California’s long, slow decline began, but surely we can pick April 18, 2021, as the day it became undeniable to even the most fervent progressive or statist (but I repeat myself).

Legislators in 17 states have introduced legislation, known as Defend the Guard, which aims to make the U.S. Congress obey the Constitution with regards to war powers.

The U.S. Capitol during a morning rainstorm on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., March 25, 2020. (Tom Brenner/Reuters) When Republicans talk about the future of their party these days, they tend to talk in terms of what will happen more than what they will do. That’s even true of many Republicans elected officials. Everyone is

One of the more startling manifestations of the Biden administration’s subserviency to liberal advocacy groups is its sudden dismissal of the Commission on Unalienable Rights appointed by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and the withdrawal of the Commission’s measured and thoughtful report. The uninitiated may be puzzled by the State Department’s involvement in the issuance

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki began her week with a briefing so bad that there’s no way to go but up. On Monday’s episode, Psaki arrived with a short fuse and clashed with multiple reporters over basic immigration questions, and blew a basket at the Fox News Channel’s Kristin Fisher over the administration’s mixed

The House Republicans’ campaign arm launched a website Monday urging Democrats to return campaign donations from New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

For his “Reality Check” commentary on Monday’s New Day, CNN’s John Avlon broke out his Lexis-Nexis transcript searches in an attempt to shame Fox News Channel for its use of the term “Russia hoax,” as if CNN had somehow proven a nefarious collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government. If that were true,

Is Facebook buying off The New York Times, and if so, for what? In 2019, Facebook reportedly planned to launch a news tab featuring headlines and article previews from various outlets, including the Times, for “as much as $3 million a year.” The program has launched to little fanfare, and former Times CEO Mark Thompson told Washington Monthly that

A recent article from the Seattle Times details a new campaign being undertaken by bicyclist groups in the Seattle-area to abolish a King County law requiring helmet-wearing by bicyclists. The reason the groups cite for seeking repeal of the law is racism, explaining that minority cyclists are being victimized by “disproportionate enforcement of the law.”

This morning, I took the above picture of Margaret Sanger Square outside Planned Parenthood of Greater New York. Over the weekend, Alexis McGill Johnson, wrote an op-ed “We’re Done Making Excuses for Our Founder.”  (As Alexandra DeSanctis writes about here.) But she missed the full need to reckon with Sanger. Yes, racist eugenics. She wrote

No matter how many times they are told to shut up and move on, Americans still care about the security of their elections. The question of election integrity is not going away.  As Justice Clarence Thomas recently pointed out, addressing weaknesses and opacity in election processes and voting laws isn’t just about 2020. The efforts being

It’s hard to follow politics and not get angry on a regular basis. It’s quite maddening to see all the progress made over the past four years being destroyed so quickly by Joe Biden… the guy who said he’d be a uniter, not a left-wing zealot. So, to help get me through these unfortunate times,
