Conservative commentator says famous Catholic archbishop would be branded a "far-right extremist" today without changing his message on faith and communism.
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) signed SB 1084 into law in May, which made Florida the first state to effectively ban cultivated meat products from development and consumption. Alabama was quick to follow with its own copycat legislation outlawing “the manufacture, sale, or distribution of food products made from cultured animal cells.” But other states thinking about similar bans, including Tennessee […]
During a brief presser Wednesday, a reporter asked President Joe Biden about inflation. The president responded, “I told you we’re going to have a soft landing, we’re going to have a soft landing. My policies are working. Start writing that way, OK?” There is a lot to unpack from that brief exchange. Let’s start with Biden’s […]
The Chicago Teachers Union president has a convenient excuse for low test scores in the public school system: The exams are “rooted in white supremacy.” “The way in which, you know, we think about learning and think about achievement is really and truly based on testing, which at best is junk science rooted in white supremacy,” Stacy Davis Gates said last […]
Now that Vice President Kamala Harris has voiced her copy of former President Donald Trump’s “no tax on tips” proposal, tax-cut talk colors much of the media attention. A common refrain asks whence the money for the deficit will come if Congress passes rules that allow for these changes. While this question does not quiet […]
Apple is coming under scrutiny for a professional development program it is offering only to white males that specifically excludes women and Hispanic and black people. Just kidding. If Apple did that, it would be roundly condemned and possibly investigated by federal law enforcement for civil rights violations. It is, however, doing the opposite and […]
In a tenure filled with blunders, the Biden administration’s most embarrassing moment has to be the disastrous retreat from Afghanistan in 2021. More than a dozen American servicemembers died during the hasty withdrawal, and tens of thousands of allies were left to fend for themselves against the bloodthirsty Taliban. President Joe Biden’s approval rating began […]
The passing of the baton from President Joe Biden to Vice President Kamala Harris, and more recently, the choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as Harris’s running mate, is certainly shaking up the November election. But beyond reshuffling the political horse race, a Harris-Walz administration wouldn’t change much. It would just mean more of the […]
A former chief justice on the U.K. Supreme Court, Lord David Neuberger, has legal credentials that are nominally impeccable. Sadly, Neuberger has decided that the patronage of the Chinese Communist Party is more important than protecting basic human rights. In 2023, Neuberger co-wrote an argument for media freedom warning that read, “If the media are silenced […]
Vice President Kamala Harris, now a slight favorite to win the November presidential election, will travel to Raleigh, North Carolina, on Friday for a speech that outlines her economic policies. Until now, Harris has avoided questions about her policies because most of the media detests former President Donald Trump. But now, the voters want to […]
DETROIT — Just about every other truck that was coming or going from the Stellantis Mack Assembly plant on Jean Avenue used a honk or a thumbs-up to greet an assembled group standing on the corner of Jean and Mack holding “Autoworkers for Trump” signs. However, not every reaction included a thumb, explained Don Shreves, […]
Taxpayers have every right to expect that when they pay unionized teachers, firefighters, and social workers a full salary with benefits, those public sector workers will then teach, fight fires, and provide social services. But thanks to a practice known as “release time,” unionized government workers fail to deliver. Instead of working to serve the […]
