We already know this rule: You aren’t permitted to leave a museum without running into a gift shop. I also discovered late last week in Paris that you can’t walk out of the newly restored Notre-Dame cathedral without passing a large gift zone near the arrow that points to Sortie de secours. And you can’t […]
At first glance, Blackie & Co.: Blackbirds in My Garden, by the English writer Hockley Clarke, is quite unsurprisingly a nice little book about blackbirds. Namely, two birds, father and son, whose relationship with Clarke began one bitter night in 1962. It was Europe’s coldest winter in 80 years, and, to give the bird a […]
The Army announced Wednesday that its Janus Program has selected five companies to build nuclear microreactors at five military installations, committing up to $2.2 billion to an effort that could eventually put more than 20 reactors across War Department facilities. It is the latest evidence that President Donald Trump’s revival of American nuclear power could […]
President Donald Trump's push to acquire Greenland added a new security dimension to Iceland's EU referendum, with 275,000 eligible voters weighing in.
ETNA, Pennsylvania — In January 2022, the local news reported that a homemade gray flag with a swastika in the center of it was hung from the front porch of a resident on Greeley Avenue of this tiny working-class Pittsburgh suburb along the Allegheny River. The community’s response was immediate. Within days, borough Councilwoman Jessica […]
Look at the billions of taxpayer dollars President Biden is pouring into “community organizations” in “disadvantaged communities” to tip the election scales.
‘WHATEVER THEY CAN GET HIM FOR IS FINE WITH ME.‘ The trial of former President Donald Trump is heading toward a conclusion. For those who at the beginning thought the case was weak and politically motivated, the presentation of the prosecution’s evidence has made it seem even weaker and more politically motivated. A conviction will […]
In November, California voters will have a chance to restore some sanity to the state’s criminal justice system over the objections of pro-criminal activists who reformed it into the mess it is today. A rollback of California’s Proposition 47 will likely be on the ballot in November. Proposition 47 softened penalties for nonviolent felonies such […]
It is presumptively good, albeit with rare exceptions, when not just bipartisan but major cross-ideological agreements emerge on Capitol Hill. When the agreements involve ethics and the limitation of opportunity for executive abuses, that’s even better. A bipartisan bill introduced last week in the House Oversight Committee, therefore, looks like reason to celebrate. Committee Chairman […]
President Joe Biden’s strategy toward Iran, Russia, Hamas, China, and North Korea now has one centering objective: ensuring those adversaries don’t complicate his reelection prospects. Recognizing this political reality is important for two reasons. First, because Biden’s strategy is undermining American security and that of our allies and interests. Second, because it utterly guts Biden’s […]
We all have to grow up eventually. As Jordan Peterson suggests, this is easiest to do if you have children. New mother Ilana Glazer, known for playing a raunchy single girl in the sitcom Broad City, probably knows this better than anybody. But becoming a mother doesn’t mean giving up toilet humor. In fact, it’s […]
On the bright side, President Joe Biden has finally acknowledged that our nation’s record-low fertility is a problem that needs to be addressed. Unfortunately, not only will his proposed solution fail spectacularly, but it fails to recognize the contribution mothers make to the economy and ignores their desire to spend more time with their families. […]
By refusing to answer simple questions about a May 3 incident at Quantico Marine Corps base, the Biden administration have essentially confirmed a question...
