How many times must California be the first of the worst before the state’s leaders change course, or have their course changed for them by voters? For the second year in a row, California has the nation’s highest unemployment rate, with the number increasing to 5.3% from last year’s 4.5%. On top of this, the […]
Deluding himself that Vladimir Putin and his partners, such as Hungary’s Viktor Orban, want to be his friends, former President Donald Trump often puts too much confidence in Putin’s rhetoric. But being that he’s the commander in chief, the leadership buck stops with President Joe Biden. And today at least, it is Biden who is […]
President Joe Biden’s racially toxic commencement speech at Morehouse College has managed to prove that his pandering pursuit of young voters isn’t even worth it in the first place. According to Politico, Biden’s speech was panned by the students in attendance. “The response from the audience was muted,” Politico declared, quoting students who said, “It […]
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has called a snap general election to be held on July 4. In the United Kingdom, the governing political party is able to call an election at any point but must do so at least once every five years. Sunak would have had to hold an election by the end […]
There are two things that Pope Francis’s recent interview with 60 Minutes made clear: He is a complicated figure who cannot be easily boxed into a specific ideology, and the media likes to paint him as someone he is not. The interview, which was conducted by Norah O’Donnell, is a fascinating window into the thinking […]
President Joe Biden’s speech at Morehouse College was a horrible one. It was full of falsehoods and typically hateful. But there was one good part of Biden’s speech: It was an implicit endorsement of all-male education. Among the dogmas of the news media and the American Left is that all-male spaces are both pointless and […]
On any given day, you can find a poll that bodes ill for President Joe Biden or former President Donald Trump.

Despite trudging through a ninth year in which the media claim to deplore President Donald Trump, this ninth year continues to prove the press still cannot get enough of him. And it’s not just the politicos in Washington covering his third consecutive presidential campaign or the paparazzi in Manhattan documenting the Republican’s first criminal trial. […]
Over 20 years ago, I trained in emergency departments filled with narcotic overdose survivors. My fellow physicians and I didn’t recognize the connection between these people brought back to life outside the hospital and the opioids we were prescribing for patients in the hospital. The medical community believed that slashing patients’ self-described pain from 10 to […]
President Joe Biden visited Massachusetts on Tuesday to attend three fundraisers, but he missed a valuable opportunity to learn more about the country’s border crisis. Biden came to the state for a few cash grabs for the Biden Victory Fund from coastal elites. However, he never visited any migrant shelters or publicly weighed in on the state’s […]
This year has witnessed an upsurge in intense and often violent protests on university campuses. Their immediate pretext is the war in Gaza, which commenced with Hamas’s savage and unprovoked attack on Israel on Oct. 7. But everyone can see that these protests reflect a broader problem: the failure of our most eminent universities to […]
If you want to explain to a puzzled left-leaning writer like the Atlantic’s Annie Lowrey why most voters this year rate the economy during Donald Trump’s presidency more favorably than that during President Joe Biden’s, you might start with a pair of simple charts. Lowrey said the Biden years have seen “the strongest economy the […]
