The “Cornell 7” gang rape case is descending into the same lynch-mob hysteria as the notorious Duke lacrosse or “mattress girl” hoaxes of old — only with social media...
It shouldn’t be this complicated for the Women’s National Basketball Association to have a controversy-free week. Yet, as the league has risen from the depths of obscurity and increased viewership and popularity, it is becoming more known for its series of unfortunate events and unforced errors than for dynamic female athleticism on the basketball court. […]
The insanity defense is a criminal justice scam that sets violent, unstable criminals free to further victimize the public while allowing them to avoid justice. Virginia allowed a murderer to flee the country over the weekend. That murderer is Abdulloi Toshpulodzoda, who killed his landlord in 2019 and was later found not guilty by reason […]
I ran for Congress because, as a doctor, I saw that Washington and big insurance made life harder for the very people I was trying to heal. That fight started with House Rule 6833, the Affordable Insulin Now Act, capping insulin costs at $35 a month, one of my first and most important votes. I […]
Destructive wildfires in Europe and the suicide of a black professor are closely linked, even though they seem utterly unconnected. The tissue that joins these unhappy events is an activist matrix sometimes referred to as the “omnicause.” The omnicause, a name coined in 2023, is the protean blob of leftism that engulfs whatever it touches […]
Undermining the confidence of American allies, China will take advantage of the USS George Washington aircraft carrier’s redeployment from the Pacific Ocean to the Middle East. A Chinese state media editorial celebrated on Monday that these “waters have now become a zero-U.S.-carrier zone” and that “the sudden absence of a carrier in the Western Pacific […]
In the age of “everyone gets a trophy,” American higher education just fractured another vertebra in the backbone of America. The University of Michigan announced that it will start “covering” grades in the first semester of incoming freshmen in the Literature, Science and Arts programs. This will give students a pass (P) or a no […]
The federal healthcare ecosystem was just sent into a tailspin by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. In its landmark August 2026 ruling for Texas Medical Association v. HHS, the full 17-judge panel struck down the federal government’s formula for how health insurers calculate out-of-network payment benchmarks. The court explicitly found that commercial carriers […]
Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) stood in Atlanta this weekend and did something calculated. He didn’t accuse President Donald Trump of an affair. He didn’t have to. He said the president would rather “build his ballroom and travel with Natalie” than do his job, let the room fill in the rest, and walked off. Within hours, […]
The United States has a planet-sized PR problem that appears not just inexplicable but completely bizarre. A shocking study from Pew Research has found that China is now viewed more positively than America in nearly 30 of the 36 countries surveyed — including longtime allies such as the United Kingdom. Obviously, countries such as France […]
President Donald Trump is to be congratulated on extending the waiver of the century-old Jones Act, which enables more oil to be shipped from the Gulf Coast to California and to the Northeast, reducing prices to American families. The first waiver was granted for 60 days on March 17, then extended an additional 90 days […]
Before Argentina’s 2001 financial collapse, its provinces embraced a dangerous habit: spending locally and sending the bill to the national government. The U.S. Medicaid program turbocharged similar fiscal free-riding during the Biden administration. Using provider taxes and state-directed payments, states maximized their draw from the national treasury while federal taxpayers bore the burden. States first […]
We are less than three months from the midterm elections, and for all the billions of dollars that will be spent convincing Americans otherwise, the choice facing voters is remarkably straightforward. Do Americans want government guided by common sense? Or by crazy, woke ideas that have endlessly proven to make our lives worse? If they […]
