Only Los Angeles could spend billions fighting homelessness, watch tents swallow sidewalks and parks, and then decide the city has been too aggressive keeping people from camping. That is...
NAACP President Derrick Johnson bashed the Navy Friday following reports that it planned to rename an aircraft carrier, named after a Black WWII war hero, and had considered President Trump's name as a replacement. Johnson wrote in a social media post that the alleged talks surrounding the USS Doris Miller's name are “a slap in...
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) pushed the Trump administration to “consider the negative impact" that engaging in a tariff war with Canada may have on American constituents, straying away from some of her GOP peers. Republican lawmakers were split Saturday after negotiations between Canada and the U.S. fell through, causing the White House to impose a...
President Trump is attempting to block the BBC's efforts to subpoena his family members for the channel's defense in his ongoing $10 million defamation lawsuit. In Saturday court filings, Trump's lawyers wrote that the British broadcaster's attempts to subpoena the president's children — Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner — were “cynical” and a...
In the 24 days Kamala Harris has spent as first de facto and then the definitive Democratic presidential nominee since President Joe Biden withdrew from reelection, the vice president has sat down for zero interviews and publicly spoken to the press for a total of 70 seconds. During that minute-long gaggle after a Michigan rally […]
NIKKI HALEY AND LETTING TRUMP BE TRUMP. It’s no secret that many Republicans are frustrated with the way former President Donald Trump is conducting his campaign in the aftermath of the Democrats’ big switch from President Joe Biden to Vice President Kamala Harris.

The dire conditions enveloping Manhattan as mentally ill and drug-addicted vagrants flood the streets unchecked can only end if Albany changes state laws on...
Thirty-six years ago today, Republican presidential campaign manager Lee Atwater was in a ragingly foul mood as he awaited the next day’s start of the Republican National Convention. Therein lies a lesson for those who prematurely insist a particular election result is inevitable. Already this year, we are on the third different iteration of supposedly […]
Mockery is sometimes more stinging and effective than open hostility in politics. It seems that this might also be the case in political media. After years of brushing off outright criticism of its leftwing bias, CNN seems at least briefly to have been stung into remedial action because it is the object of open mockery. […]
You would think it does not need to be explained to universities that they can’t allow students to be blocked from classes based on their religion. If the University of California, Los Angeles, is any indication, you would be wrong. Three Jewish students sued UCLA after “pro-Palestinian” (read: Pro-Hamas) protesters blocked them from walking to […]
Back in May, President Joe Biden challenged former President Donald Trump to two debates. CNN would host the first on June 27, and the second by ABC News on Sept. 10. Although Trump had filed a defamation lawsuit against ABC News and host George Stephanopoulos in March, he was delighted by the opportunity to face […]
In one of the final primary races of the 2024 cycle, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) avoided the ignominious fate of Reps. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) and Cori Bush (D-MO) by easily winning renomination, allowing Congress’ left-wing “Squad” to heave a sigh of relief. In two highly publicized races, Bowman and Bush fell to primary challengers by […]
As Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) campaigns with former President Donald Trump and faces public scrutiny, his remarks about family policy seem to capture most of the attention. Of course, the media skew Vance’s comments for their own purposes. His “childless cat ladies” bit is by now well known and has been explained by Vance. That […]
