When the Democratic Party has already been consumed by antisemitism, a lot of people are genuinely worried about whether Republicans will go the same way.
Colorblindness, not the ophthalmological condition but the notion of aspiring to treat people as individuals, without regard to their race, has taken a beating these past few years. Prominent left-wing thinkers such as Ibram X. Kendi, and “anti-racist” training sessions based on their work, have painted this ideal as nothing more than a way of […]
Lawrence of Arabia: My Journey in Search of T.E. Lawrence is the first biography I’ve read in which the author explains what it’s like to kill a man: “I had often shot at people hundreds of yards away — vague shapes behind rocks who were busy firing back — but never before had I seen […]
Bear Cave, in Coeur D’Alene, Idaho, bills itself as a “man store,” selling great items for men who don’t consider masculinity to be toxic. I bought a few civilian-issue field rations there: chili-mac, penne with vegetable sausage crumbles, and cheese tortellini.

Leftists have been enraged at conservatives for banning books they do not think children should see, but their own president did that to those who were skeptical of COVID-19 information. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) publicized information this week about how the Biden administration pressured Amazon to ban books in an X thread that came as […]
Florida Democrats have been so decimated over the past few years to the point that they are begging Taylor Swift to save them. Florida Democrats are hoping that Swift’s concerts in Miami one month before the 2024 elections will be the saving grace they need. They are going to hold “A Day of Action (Taylor’s […]
The world of country music was shaken earlier this week after news that Toby Keith died at the age of 62 from stomach cancer. With hits such as “Should’ve Been a Cowboy,” “As Good as I Once Was,” and, of course, “Red Solo Cup,” he will always be remembered as one of the greats. But […]
