Former Rep. Susan Wild unleashed a profane tirade against Jasmine Crockett after the Texas Democrat's FIRE PAC endorsement list omitted James Talarico.
Any lingering doubt that the Commission on Presidential Debates would have a role in the 2024 election was eliminated Wednesday when the Biden campaign announced it would not participate in the commission’s debates. The commission was already on shaky ground after the Republican Party announced in 2022 that it would not participate in the commission’s […]
The streaming revolution is making it harder (and more expensive) to watch the sports that you love. The NFL announced that Netflix will be exclusively airing the league’s Christmas games for the next three years, adding another service that fans will have to subscribe to if they want to watch games. There are six television […]
President Volodymyr Zelensky again showed the more problematic side to his otherwise impressive wartime leadership on Thursday. Namely, his penchant for putting ego and emotion before Ukraine’s diplomatic priorities. In an interview with ABC News, Zelensky blamed the U.S. and other world powers for the Russian offensive against Ukraine’s northeastern bastion city of Kharkiv. Asked […]
Someday Colin Kaepernick will be forgotten as the mediocre starting quarterback he was. Unfortunately, today is not that day. Democrats are currently freaking out about Kansas City Chiefs placekicker Harrison Butker’s commencement speech at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas. Butker’s crime? Having the temerity to thank his wife for making his career possible. After congratulating […]
New York has sentenced a 53-year-old black man with no criminal history to 10 years behind bars for the crime of exercising his constitutionally protected Second Amendment rights. Dexter Taylor, a software engineer from Brooklyn, was raided by police and arrested in 2022 after Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzales, the man who pledged to lead “the most progressive D.A.’s office […]
Secretary of State Antony Blinken famously declared, “Diplomacy is back,” he but confuses diplomacy with affability. Guitar jamming in Ukraine is already Blinken’s Michael-Dukakis-in-a-tank moment. Dictators see in Blinken a man around whom they can run circles. During the Trump years, NATO allies paid up; today, they again stick America with the bill. Two-bit dictators such […]
Visiting Beijing on Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin proved that the mutually described “no-limits partnership” between Russia and China is flourishing. The two leaders did little to hide their disdain for their Western interlocutors. Chinese President Xi Jinping repudiated French President Emmanuel Macron’s recent and rather pathetic encouragement that Xi pressure Putin into ending the […]
University leaders who bend the knee to antisemitic mobs should be removed from their posts, as they are encouraging even worse behavior from protesters while allowing them to control university decisions. The California State University system has offered an example of what exactly should happen. Mike Lee, the president of Sonoma State University, announced that […]
Right-wing conspiracy theories are plaguing conservative and Republican discourse. One of the longest-running theories involves President Joe Biden being replaced at the last minute in a political switcheroo. It’s an oft-repeated fantasy that has zero chance of coming to fruition. Short of any legitimate health emergencies, or death, Biden is going to be the Democratic […]
The United Nations on May 8 shrank its casualty figures for Palestinian women and children by around 50% while recording no substantial change in the overall Gazan death toll in the war that has raged since the terrorist entity Hamas brutally massacred about 1,200 people and captured 243 hostages on Oct. 7, 2023. On May […]
The federal government is not the most effective steward of the taxpayer’s money, and there have been myriad investigations and reports about waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement. But until the Government Accountability Office released its April 16 report, “Fraud Risk Management,” there had never been a comprehensive, government-wide review of fraud since the nation’s founding. No private entity could […]
The Israel Defense Force’s move last week into the southern Gaza city of Rafah has exploded in Egypt like a 2,000-pound bomb. Cairo has long been playing a double game, holding Hamas terrorists near while simultaneously trying to appear helpful to the United States and Israel. Israel taking control of Rafah threatens Egypt’s ability to […]
After enabling an anti-Israel campus occupation, Northwestern University surrendered to its pro-Hamas students this month. A handful of scholarships and professorships for Palestinian activists likely seemed a small price to pay to clean up the mess the administrators allowed students to make. But the leadership at Northwestern and other occupation-friendly universities haven’t the dimmest idea […]
The Democratic National Committee has decided to host its presidential nominating convention this year in Chicago, Illinois. The decision is puzzling. Illinois is a safe, blue state for Democrats, not having voted for a Republican presidential candidate since George H.W. Bush in 1988. In fact, Chicago hasn’t had a Republican mayor since William “Big Bill” […]
