Among the most evil things Hamas did in its Oct. 7 invasion was the serial rape of many Israeli women and girls. The stories and images of rape are one reason it is so obscene when American or European leftists defend or minimize Hamas’s brutality as “resistance” or “decolonization.”
Congress increased the child tax credit to $2,000 beginning Jan. 1, 2018. While some folks objected that this was a special-interest handout to parents, expanding the child tax credit was really just a makeup for folding the personal and dependent exemption into a larger standard deduction.
Prince Harry adopts a notoriously aggressive stance toward media coverage he dislikes. He has even gone so far as to say the First Amendment is "bonkers."
President Joe Biden has removed the Council on American-Islamic Relations from his “National Strategy” to combat antisemitism. But why was the group included in the first place?
The 56-page indictment of Hunter Biden for tax evasion makes for racy reading, with the Special Counsel describing a four-year criminal pattern directed at maintaining...
Voters have another six weeks before the Iowa caucuses start the Republican primary season, and despite the national polling dominance of former President Donald Trump, two major candidates are heading into the holidays with momentum. While Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) has languished in the polls, he has secured the potential game-changing endorsements of Gov. Kim Reynolds (R-IA) and evangelical kingmaker Bob Vander Plaats. Meanwhile, Nikki Haley has soared to second place in New Hampshire and South Carolina while nipping at the Florida governor's heels in the Hawkeye State. Objective observers can admit that although Trump remains the favorite, the primary isn't over until at least the first three states sing.
The University of Pennsylvania lost a donation of $100 million and is on the verge of ousting its president in response to her handling of antisemitism on campus. That isn’t enough to solve the problem, but it is a good place to start.
In a blow to Democratic Party claims that California is the economic engine of the nation and an even bigger blow to the presidential aspirations of Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA), the nonpartisan California Legislative Analyst’s Office reported Thursday that not only was California’s government facing a short-term $68 billion budget deficit, but the state appears to be in a recession.
Rabbi David Wolpe quit the antisemitism committee Harvard set up to do damage control after the school's disastrous response to Hamas' October 7 attack.
HUNTER BIDEN INDICTMENT IS TOTAL VINDICATION FOR WHISTLEBLOWERS. Remember when two IRS whistleblowers came forward to charge that the Biden administration gave the president's son, Hunter Biden, special treatment in the tax investigation into his business affairs? The two — Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, both of whom were deeply involved in the Hunter Biden investigation — offered proof that the IRS had an open-and-shut case that Hunter Biden evaded taxes on large amounts of money he had made from foreign sources. But the U.S. Attorney's Office in Delaware, and the larger Justice Department, would not pursue it, and both men were removed from the case in retaliation for having the temerity to point out the inaction.
Illegal immigrants are flooding into America faster than ever before. Dec. 5 set a record, with more than 12,000 encounters at the Mexican frontier. That would be 4.4 million annually, adding 1.3% to the population in just one year, if the pace stayed constant. It will obviously fluctuate, sometimes below that number, but there is every reason to expect record highs in the next 12 months.
The global competition between Washington and Moscow has reached a critical point. The Biden administration and Congress have an opportunity to score a historic victory over Russia, America’s perennial adversary, without the death of a single U.S. soldier. To accomplish such a decisive objective over the coming months, Washington needs to provide all the firepower that Ukraine needs to drive out Russia’s invading force.
When I was younger, everyone seemed to know the significance of Dec. 7. Multiple news programs would cover ceremonies of World War II veterans and survivors of the Japanese attack, especially the main ceremony held each year in Honolulu at the USS Arizona Memorial. It was a solemn day in which the entire country seemed to pay its respects to the fallen. There used to be many television programs dedicated to commemorating Pearl Harbor Day.
