Poll: Democratic voters driven by Trump opposition more than party platform

A new poll shows that Democratic voters are more driven to cast their ballots in the November midterms elections out of their opposition to President Trump more so than the party's platform. The CBS News/YouGov poll released Sunday found that 54 percent of Democratic voters said they will vote for their Democratic candidate to Congress...

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed on Sunday pushed back on questions about far-left streamer Hasan Piker, who he previously campaigned with. “There are Jewish voters in your state who are concerned about your relationship with Piker. You have condemned antisemitism but not called out his rhetoric directly. Why not?” CBS News’s Weijia Jiang asked...

Was the Super Bowl trying to be woke or glorious?

One perspective: Super Bowl 2023 showed a glorious America with differing views on race, sex, and talent. Another perspective: This Super Bowl wanted America to look woke first and great only second.

Have more married sex, please!

Sex is fantastic, and you should have it more often. That is the argument Magdalene Taylor makes in a New York Times op-ed published Monday. And I completely agree!

Justice for George Santos

JUSTICE FOR GEORGE SANTOS. Some Republicans have entreated House GOP leaders: Can't we get rid of this guy? Can't we just kick him out? The guy, of course, is Rep. George Santos (R-NY), the freshman who won the election in the 3rd District by lying about virtually everything in his life. His campaign also operated on what appears to be a very shady financial basis.

Disinformation is just information Democrats don’t like

My colleague Gabe Kaminsky has done a fantastic job of documenting how an international nongovernmental organization with two United States-affiliated nonprofit organizations, the Global Disinformation Index, has created a blacklist of conservative websites, including the Washington Examiner, that it uses to pressure advertisers to stop advertising on those sites.

Super Bowl 2023: What is a catch? The NFL needs to study Aristotle

In Philadelphia, Super Bowl LVII will be remembered for a bad late-game penalty call that killed the Eagles’ chances. But there were two other important calls the referees got wrong that should push the NFL to change its rules, its processes, and, frankly, its philosophy.

China’s exclusion of Taiwan imperils health and now counterterrorism

When SARS swept across Asia in 2003, it knew no borders. Taiwan sought to attend a World Health Organization (WHO) meeting charting a strategy to combat the disease, but Beijing vetoed its participation. China likewise impeded WHO-Taiwan cooperation against the backdrop of the 2004 bird flu epidemic. In a compromise the following year, China and WHO signed a memorandum agreeing that WHO would communicate any health-related matters first to Beijing, which then would convey the information to Taiwan. The arrangement undercut health. In one case, China informed Taiwan only after a ten-day delay that corn it imported may have been contaminated with a bacterial infection. Over the past decade, WHO has excluded Taiwan from over 70% of its technical meetings.

Overcoming nepotism is what made us rich

Like every American disease, the obsession with “nepo babies” has infected Britain. If 2022 was, as New York magazine claimed, the year nepotism went mainstream in Hollywood, 2023 has been the year the Brits lumberingly caught up.

What the Left gains, and loses, from ending the public health emergency

Like almost everything in life, the good often comes with the bad. Taylor Swift songs come with an annoying fan base, milkshakes come with calories, and public health emergencies deliver reduced regulations, but they give the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services more power.

China is afraid of NASA’s Artemis return to the moon

Recently, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson warned that the U.S. and her allies are engaged in a space race with China. The prize is the mineral and energy riches of the moon. Nelson even suggested that the Chinese Communist Party will violate the Outer Space Treaty and claim the moon as its sovereign territory. He noted China’s behavior on Earth, particularly in regard to the South China Sea.

What Biden didn’t tell you about universal preschool
