Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro on Sunday said impeaching Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is a decision for Congress to make. But he said on NBC's Meet the Press that "real questions" about Mr. Hegseth's tenure at the Pentagon need to be addressed.
What’s the difference between the Mafia and the state of California? It’s way smaller than you might think. The Mafia is famous for shaking down legitimate businesses and demanding payoffs if they want to keep their doors open. Turns out, California does the exact same thing. The Mafia is a bunch of amateurs compared to […]
Tuesday’s midterm elections have already been given a name: the “blue tsunami.” Democrats won the House by a margin not seen in years and picked up Senate seats in states from Kansas to Texas, where few expected them to. At least one foreign-policy file could come out of the wave stronger rather than more divided. […]
John Mearsheimer is a world-famous professor of political science at the University of Chicago. He is a bitter critic of Israel. He offers a strong and severe indictment of the only civilized nation in the Middle East. It is well-written. It is erudite. It uses all sorts of big words. There is only one thing […]
Alice Cooper is a rock ’n’ roll oddity. If you’re at all familiar with his macabre onstage persona, the notion that he’s not normal even by the standards of rock stars seems obvious enough.

Nearly five years after his death in 2022 at age 80, Neal Adams is finally getting his due — or starting to. That he didn’t live to see this reflects elitist disdain for the artist’s chosen medium as well as the idiosyncratic decisions Adams made in the years when he enjoyed primary custodianship over his […]
Not only did Democrats regain control of both chambers of Congress in the mid-term election, they did also by jamming a radical spear into the heart of the GOP elephant, a spear wielded by the Democratic Socialists of America. The DSA found itself high-stepping over the elephant corpse on its sought-after goal of smashing capitalism […]
Almost 60% of Californians believe their state is heading in the wrong direction. Yet voters again gave the Democratic Party total power in the state to continue its decadeslong mismanagement. It is hard to blame only Democratic leadership for California’s woes when voters themselves pass ballot propositions that repeat the mistakes that have put the […]
