The Pentagon's new mandatory testosterone deficiency screening for troops ages 30 and up includes mandatory blood tests and voluntary hormone replacement therapy for men.
Much can be said about the dysfunction of U.S. politics. In November, the nation will choose between reelecting a senile president or electing a former president who believes the national interest and his mirror are the same thing. At the same time, Congress is riven with partisan posturing. Yet freedom and the marketplace of ideas […]
Going full Ice Witch on the sky reflects the modern world’s futile attempt to control nature, oftentimes regardless of the cost. NASA scientists have revealed that their latest plan to combat climate change is to spread ice across the upper atmosphere with planes. Their theory is that these ice particles will freeze water that normally, […]
In the Texas primary on Tuesday, voters resoundingly chose lawmakers who support school choice. In all, six incumbent members of the Texas House who opposed education savings accounts, or vouchers, this last legislative session lost their races. Four are headed to a runoff, and six incumbents survived the bloodbath. This was no accident on the […]
A bit of free advice to political consultants, commentators, and politicians: Do not mock voters for having concerns about policy issues, as the talking head squadron at MSNBC did on Tuesday night. During election night coverage of the Super Tuesday primary results, MSNBC hosts and Democratic Party activists Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, and Jen Psaki […]
Assemblyman Eddie Gibbs and State Senator Kevin Parker want taxpayers to fund $2,600 handouts to ex-cons once they leave prison. Why do NY Democrats...
The only real good news out of open Senate races in California is that some terrible Democrat always ends up out of office while chasing the job. This time, that terrible Democrat is Rep. Katie Porter. Along with communist sympathizer Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA), Porter is now headed out of office in November after falling […]
When the federal government intervenes in the economy, it regularly accrues to the benefit of Big Business and to the detriment of smaller competitors and taxpayers. That’s the story with the Biden administration’s latest antitrust action, which successfully blocked the merger of JetBlue and Spirit Airlines. If the two of them had combined, they would […]
For the rest of 2024, Nikki Haley should ditch the Republican label. As the former South Carolina governor exited the race for the Republican presidential nomination, she quite explicitly declined to endorse former President Donald Trump. She was right to decline. Trump is unfit for the presidency in multiple ways. Two-thirds of voters “want someone […]
Much has been said and written by right-wingers about the precipitous decline of Saturday Night Live. There is a reason why SNL’s Donald Trump jokes are rarely funny while its rare Joe Biden jokes harken back to a bygone era when political comedy was appreciated by all: Hatred is off-putting. Comics on SNL like Biden and […]
San Francisco voters are rolling back “progressive” fantasies in law enforcement, school, and drug and welfare policies. At what point do those voters hold it against the politicians and progressive activists who drove them to this point? San Francisco’s voters are projected to have approved several propositions that would roll back progressive policies or influence. […]
HALEY LOSS ANOTHER REMINDER: GOP CAN’T GO BACK. What does Nikki Haley’s loss in the Republican presidential primaries, a loss in which she gathered a substantial amount of votes but was able to win only in Vermont and Washington, D.C., tell us about the Republican Party? Among other things, it tells us, as if we needed […]
I recently addressed an enthusiastic crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference on a concern that has been growing in my mind. I call it the “crisis of legitimacy,” and by that, I mean the growing distrust of people in our legacy institutions. Institutions such as the media, academia, medicine, and even the government itself. At our country’s […]
A slew of new polls had nothing but bad news for President Joe Biden this weekend, but the worst development may have come from Saturday Night Live. The longest-running sketch comedy show opened with CNN’s Dana Bash asking a string of Biden sympathizers about his age, and they all parroted the now-familiar line, in a […]
