Major philanthropies camouflage tax-exempt donations to fuel Gaza protests

While graduations may have resulted in a temporary halt to pro-Gaza campus encampments and protests, major U.S. philanthropies continue to violate their tax-exempt status by secretly funneling donations to antisemitic and pro-Hamas groups planning to disrupt the Democratic National Convention and reignite campus protests this fall. A recent report by the Coalition for a Safer […]

California woes deepen for Newsom as polls drop

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) is not alone in the polling and approval woes. Newsom’s polling numbers have dropped from an all-time high of 64% three years ago. Around 44% of Californians say they approve of Newsom’s performance, but general approval of the state legislature hovers at 40%. When asked specifically about their own legislators, general […]

Lawsuit challenges DOE water limits on appliances

The Department of Energy is illegally limiting the water use of home appliances, and lawyers at the Competitive Enterprise Institute are filing a lawsuit to stop it. Every day, people run dishwashers and washing machines only to discover that another washing cycle is needed because what’s inside remains dirty. The root of the problem is […]

Bridgerton is a ‘historical romance’ that fails on both counts

For four years, Bridgerton has shattered Netflix streaming records as it introduced black aristocrats into the 19th century nobility of England, deflowered panting virgins who only learn how babies are made after steamy sessions of coitus interruptus, and showed the court debut of five of the eight siblings born to the titular dowager Viscountess Violet […]

A glaring error in Trump’s hush money trial

A New York jury acquitted publisher John Peter Zenger of seditious libel in 1735 in what the National Constitution Center correctly calls “an early example of jury nullification.” Three centuries later, another New York jury was falsely instructed that it lacked that power, thereby rendering its guilty verdict against another high-profile defendant, former President Donald […]

Colorado GOP’s turmoil reflects national rifts

The Colorado Republican Party is deeply divided. Last week, this came to a head when GOP Chairman Dave Williams authorized a mass email with the subject line, “God hates pride.” The email denounced Pride Month as a time when “godless groomers” attack what is “decent, holy, and righteous.” The parties’ X account also tweeted a […]

People think Medicare is going bankrupt

People are pessimistic about Medicare’s longevity. Roughly 7 in 10 adults under 65 say they’re “worried” or “extremely worried” the program won’t be around when they need it, according to a new Gallup poll. That may come as no surprise. Medicare expenditures exceeded $1 trillion in 2023. They’re on track to grow by roughly $930 […]

Protecting democracy? Left-wing violence over Europe elections is par for their anti-democracy course

After right-wing groups were victorious in European elections last week, riots and protests broke out in France. Left-wing political organizations were in total disarray and anger over the political defeat. Many of the groups are communist organizations, a fact that is conveniently omitted by many news organizations covering the political chaos, and they have organized […]

The Supreme Court sends Congress back to work

To the ignorant and opportunistic, Friday’s Supreme Court decision invalidating a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms regulation that had banned a firearm accessory known as the “bump stock” looks like a Second Amendment decision. The Supreme Court invalidated federal law that restricted gun ownership, therefore this must have been a Second Amendment decision. But […]

On Patti LaBelle’s 80th, I remember her horrific-smelling hotel room

People magazine reprising Patti LaBelle turning 80 made me remember our long-ago interview in a NYC hotel. She lived good. Six-inch spike heels, 3,000 pairs.
