The academic and feminist author Camille Paglia once wrote that “Leaving sex to the feminists is like letting your dog vacation at the taxidermist.” So it might be that leaving the story of the now-infamous “Cornell Seven” alleged rape case up to leftists and many legacy media outlets is like letting the accused write the […]
The problem with President Ronald Reagan being called “the Great Communicator” is that it showed how much worse other Republicans were at political messaging.
