Taking Venezuela’s Oil: Nullifying the Claims of American Companies

Oman played both sides — until it didn’t. How a secret shipping deal ignited the Strait of Hormuz

Oman’s strategy of calculated neutrality has run out of road. Long celebrated as a quiet diplomatic bridge between Washington and Tehran, Muscat has shattered its careful balancing act. A desperate attempt to revive a paralyzed shipping economy has transformed Oman into a central participant in a military conflict between the United States and Iran. The […]

Mark Zuckerberg killed the bill that could have saved my son. He should fight for children’s safety

I would love to think that Mark Zuckerberg saw the light. Meta, Zuckerberg’s massive tech company that owns Facebook and Instagram, agreed to a $17 billion settlement with 47 state attorneys general who had sued the company for deliberately addicting children to its products. In addition to the financial penalties, Meta agreed to implement features […]

Associated Press murders media ethics in report on Harvard leader’s resignation

The Associated Press, despite boasting many excellent individual reporters, long ago lowered standards and became, at least at its top levels, a frequent purveyor of toxic and dishonest left-wing agitprop. Even by those lowered standards, though, the Associated Press’s main story on the resignation of Harvard University President Claudine Gay was a disgrace.

The Harvard Corporation is just as bad as, if not worse than, Claudine Gay

If the board in charge of governing Harvard University had its way, a morally bankrupt serial plagiarist would still be leading the Ivy League school.

I attended college during the pandemic, and all I got was this stupid refund check

I was in the middle of my last year in college at the University of Pennsylvania when the COVID pandemic happened. In March 2020, I was on spring break when the university stopped in-person classes and switched to remote learning. I didn’t know it then, but I would never set foot on Penn’s campus again before graduating. Last month, I was sent a refund check as part of a class-action lawsuit for the transition to online learning. The total didn’t even amount to the cost of one of my textbooks.

Mike DeWine’s feckless refusal to ban child mutilation must be quickly overruled

Gov. Mike DeWine's (R-OH) veto of a bill prohibiting children from being subjected to cross-sex hormones, puberty blockers, and genital mutilating surgeries is arguably the most cowardly act by a Republican governor in recent memory.

Anti-family financial aid law punishes those with multiple kids in college

The federal Department of Education plays a central role in determining what sort of financial aid families get when their kids go to college, and the new rules are blatantly anti-family.

Comedy’s old guard

The death of comedy has been greatly exaggerated. For proof, look no further than two recent Netflix specials, one by Ricky Gervais and the other by Dave Chappelle.

He’s fallen and he can’t get up, part 2: Biden’s dark campaign

HE'S FALLEN AND HE CAN'T GET UP, PART 2: BIDEN'S DARK CAMPAIGN. Yesterday's newsletter, "Biden and the polls: He's fallen and he can't get up," described the deep trouble President Joe Biden is in as he seeks a second term at age 81. Not only do voters of both parties believe he is too old to continue as president, but majorities disapprove of virtually everything he has done in the White House, from his handling of the economy to the border to crime to foreign affairs. Even on traditionally strong Democratic issues, such as healthcare and education, Biden's job approval rating is startlingly low.

It’s 2024 and time to denounce Claudine Gay’s fake cries of racism

In a shocker to start the new year, Harvard President Claudine Gay announced her resignation on Tuesday. She had been under fire after her disastrous testimony before Congress late last year regarding antisemitism on college campuses. Then, numerous plagiarism accusations over Gay’s earlier works surfaced in recent weeks. It became too much for Harvard University and led to Gay’s resignation. So Gay resorted to the very thing that every leftist does when broiled in controversy: play the race card.
