A new Trump admin housing directive aims to tackle the U.S.'s housing affordability crunch by ending Obama-era rule allowing indefinite liability for property owners over past building design errors.
President Joe Biden knows just what will help black voters turn out to the polls in November: delaying a ban on menthol cigarettes by a few months until after the election. Under Biden, the Food and Drug Administration has worked toward enacting a ban on menthol cigarettes for two years, but it has recently moved […]
Remember when politicians threw a fit about Dearborn, Michigan, being called “America’s Jihad Capital”? Perhaps activists leading a “Death to America” chant prove that outrage was unfounded. Dearborn is an Arab American majority suburb in Detroit, so when a Wall Street Journal opinion piece labeled it as “America’s Jihad Capital,” Democratic politicians tripped over themselves […]
Israel just marked six months since the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas and other Gaza-based proxies of Iran. Israel’s military response has largely been a success, with rapid advances and fewer Israel Defense Forces casualties than initially predicted. Palestinian civilian casualties have been high, but Hamas is decimated. The problem? Iran may still win. The IDF has […]
What constitutes a “black” story? If the novelist, screenwriter, or director behind the story is black, is that sufficient? If the characters are of African descent, is that good enough? Or are there certain requisite elements in terms of setting, plot, dialect, and the moral character of the protagonists that ultimately determine the answer? And, […]
President Joe Biden has tried to pretend that he supports Israel since the terrorist attack against it on Oct. 7, but he has made it clear he would rather Israel surrender than win its war against Hamas. Biden is now telling Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that “we won’t be able to support you” if […]
This week’s Liberal Media Scream revealed again just how easy it is to make cable TV hosts suffering from “Trump Derangement Syndrome” go nuts. With Congress on Easter break, there wasn’t much Capitol Hill news last week. So when a report was posted about a GOP proposal to rename Dulles International Airport after former President […]
Despite President Joe Biden positioning himself as a centrist on abortion policy throughout the 2020 election, he has repeatedly embraced the most extreme Democratic Party line throughout his presidency. He has not just supported the Women’s Health Protection Act, which would legalize abortion nationwide up until the point of a baby’s birth, but he also […]
Vice President Kamala Harris extolled the president in a speech last month for “fighting to expand access to affordable healthcare” and lambasted right-wing “extremists” for “trying to take away healthcare coverage.” So it’s ironic that one of the Biden administration’s latest moves, a rule cutting the maximum duration of a short-term health plan from three […]
President Joe Biden champions himself as a proponent of diversity. That’s probably a good thing for him because there is nothing more diverse in this country, and arguably the world, than the stories of Biden’s ethnic background(s). All this from a president, mind you, who said how much more honest he was than his predecessor. […]
TRUMP STRUGGLES TO UNITE GOP ON ABORTION. Early Monday morning, former President Donald Trump issued an anxiously awaited statement on abortion. It was anxiously awaited because the Republican Party has been floundering in the attempt to find some sort of unifying policy on abortion in the wake of the Supreme Court’s 2022 reversal of Roe v. Wade. In this […]
Jonathan Haidt is one of the most important and impressive writers of the day. Tyler Cowen is one of the most interesting and intelligent minds of our age. The two of them recently spoke on the topic of Haidt’s new book, The Anxious Generation. I highly recommend this conversation for all sorts of reasons. The […]
