Just a few months ago the conventional wisdom in conservative circles was that Kevin McCarthy was a machine politician in service to the GOPe moneyed interests, and he would reject true conservative principles in the interest of “bipartisanship” and the even more egregious “kinder, gentler nation.” Has he changed? Did Kevin McCarthy undergo some philosophical…

NYC mayor Eric Adams seems to want it both ways. Draconian public health measures of demonstrably no value, except to demonstrate his authority over every aspect of life in New York City, and suspension of those measures when it contributes to the soaring crime rate in the city. Wow…would would have thought that forcing business…

Good! It is vitally important in this day and age that Germany continues its headlong rush into global insignificance. Any rational foreign policy is designed to protect the country’s interests across the world, and if Germany wants to make its national interest a placeholder for an aggressive feminist agenda…have at it. I am sure it…
The Weaponization Of The Law By The Left
It used to be called “free speech.” Now it is political crime. Protesting outside of an abortion abattoir seems to be the epitome of free expression…possibly saving the unborn from Abortion Inc.’s clutches is a political and social position that is easily defensible on moral, religious, ethical and legal grounds. And yet Congress passed a…

The United Nations is a rabidly anti-Israel, anti-Semitic, and anti-Western organization that is nonetheless supported by the United States and the western countries whose way of life is endangered by the very policies that the UN espouses and the West pays for. Unfortunately for Israel, the UN is also a conduit for much of the…

America is in the midst of a crime wave, in spite of the best efforts of our progressive politicians to minimize the data. Any sentient being can observe the increase in criminality, especially in the blue inner cities that have been hardest hit by Soros-supported district attorneys hell-bent on releasing every jailed criminal and never…
Pandemic Power 2.0: The WHO Comes To America
Ceding authority to a foreign body over any activity in the United States of America is a violation of our sovereignty, and it doesn’t matter whether it is some triviality like the design of dog licenses. But granting the World Health Organization any control over the conduct of our health care response during a “pandemic”…

Cancel CultureTM is nowhere more evident than on our enlightened (hah!) university campuses, where any hint of deviation from the ever-changing orthodoxy mobilizes a mob…of administrators, shrieking blue-haired and pierced protestors, Antifa or BLM thugs, or virtue-signalling professors. And that orthodoxy is increasingly insane…free and on-demand transgender mutilation surgery; firing professors who dare to teach…

Ah yes…The Ministry of Truth! Rumor has it that one of the censors is named Winston Smith, and some fellow named O’Brien has been skulking about. This is nothing more than 1984 with modern technology! But instead of merely rewriting the historical record to conform to their current orthodoxy (pro-immigrant, pro-vaccine, pro-Ukraine, pro-big-government, pro-LGBT, anti-everything…

Ticket scalping is an artifact of a pre-electronic age. But if you believe the music “artists” and their pet ticket seller (Ticketmaster), the only way to manage the issue is to transfer the outrageous profit of the secondary market to the artists themselves! Huh? I can think of several ways to prevent a secondary market,…
