X’s algorithm should be politically neutral

Elon Musk posted on Sunday, “I think we need a red wave or America is toast.” This has prompted liberal commentators to worry that X’s algorithms will change before the November elections to help Republicans. The response from some conservatives has not been heartening. For instance, Tony Kinnett, investigative columnist for the Daily Signal, responded to these worries by posting, “‘well well […]

Pennsylvania’s ‘uncommitted’ movement could sway presidential race nationwide

BEDFORD, Pennsylvania — The recent emergence of an “Uncommitted Vote” movement ahead of next month’s Democratic presidential primary, along with the surprisingly strong support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent run for president, has experts wondering how that plays out for President Joe Biden here in November. Earlier this week, the Democratic Socialists of America […]

Why Democrats lie about abortion

Part of the Democratic strategy on abortion is to paint Republicans as unsympathetic to the plight of pregnant women. Eva Burch, a Democrat in the Arizona state Senate, is keen to do that with her own story. Last week, Burch spoke on the floor of the state Senate about her fertility journey. Although she has two children, she […]

Buying votes by forgiving student debts is a bad campaign idea

Even the average college student is not ignorant enough to ignore the economic woes wrought upon them by the Biden administration.

The two issues that will define the 2024 election

As we approach the election this November, politicians, activists, and commentators alike are falling over themselves to declare that their issue of choice is the issue that should drive you to cast your ballot in favor of their preferred candidate. Democrats will stick to their classic favorites, including democracy, equality, and, of course, the imaginary […]

Supporters of open borders lack common sense

It takes an uncritical mindset to oppose something as basic and sensible as border security. Despite the obvious importance of keeping out illegal immigrants, many people have been duped into thinking that securing the border is unacceptable, without being able to articulate why. The best they can muster is that it is … racist? Fortunately, […]

Biden’s Gaza pier is a dangerous, illogical election-year gimmick

For the next month and a half, a small group of Army logistics vessels will inch across the Atlantic, traveling at a third of the speed of a Navy warship. Then, according to the Biden administration, soldiers will take two months to build a floating pier to deliver food and aid to Gaza. All told, […]

Trump’s blockbuster IPO proves the limits of the legal warfare trying to bankrupt him

With no time left to spare before New York Attorney General Letitia James tried to fine Donald Trump nearly half a billion dollars over her farcical anti-fraud crusade, the former president was handed two lifelines. First, an appeals court massively slashed Teflon Don’s required payment to a $175 million bond. Second, and perhaps more consequentially, […]

The schadenfreude edition: From ‘Broke Don’ to Bloomberg’s list of the world’s richest men

After campaign finance reports released last week showed former President Donald Trump lagging far behind President Joe Biden in February donations and end-of-month cash reserves, the Biden campaign sent an email to supporters titled, “Not a Winning Campaign: Broke Don Hides in Basement.” It read: “Trump can’t raise money, isn’t campaigning, and is letting convicts […]

In the aftermath of the tragic collision of a cargo ship into Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, hot-take artists immediately pointed to diversity, equity, and inclusion as the main culprit.  Anthony Sabatini, a Republican congressional candidate from Florida, posted a video of the bridge collapse with the caption, “DEI did this.”  Republican Utah lawmaker and […]

Congress must not wait to refinance Social Security

This year’s Social Security Trustees Report, which the agency’s new commissioner expects to be released sometime in April, will likely echo previous warnings. The trustees’ last annual report cautioned that unless Congress changes the law, Social Security will only have enough money to pay about 80% of current benefits by 2034. That is when the […]

Congress can curtail expensive California transit projects

While the East Coast and Midwest have plenty of costly federally funded transit projects, the biggest boondoggles are in Northern California. And, unless Congress starts intervening, billions will continue to flow to overbuilt, low-ridership projects in and around San Francisco. For fiscal 2024, the Biden administration budget allocated $500 million to a six-mile extension in San […]

The CCP’s influence is seeping into US schools

Chinese President Xi Jinping didn’t sugarcoat his vision for future world relations during his Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation visit in November.
