1995—In A Woman’s Choice v. Newman, federal district judge David F. Hamilton issues a preliminary injunction preventing Indiana from implementing its recently enacted statute governing…
We wish Speaker Emerita Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) happiness and health in her retirement. History will weigh her substantial legacy for decades to come. One unfortunate aspect of her legacy is already known, and it will be the decline in public trust of Democratic institutions during her speakerships. Pelosi’s soaring personal wealth during that time, the product of well-timed […]
Bloomberg profiled James Cameron in 2019, describing how the Titanic director was “betting on a better future” — one where traditional meat would play a much smaller role. Plant-based meats, the article suggested, were the sustainable future of both food and investing. To illustrate the frenzy, Bloomberg pointed to Beyond Meat Inc., a maker of […]
President Donald Trump is seen as a hero of the pro-life movement. Among other things, Trump nominated three new Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade in June 2022. But the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision doesn’t make up for other serious missteps by this administration concerning the sanctity of […]
It was President Ronald Reagan who said, “The Democratic Party is the party of government.” Although he didn’t intend that as a compliment, many Democrats would agree. Take the 1988 contest between presidential candidates Michael Dukakis and George H.W. Bush. In a televised debate, Dukakis said, “The purpose of government is to do something, not […]
Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) has only been in the Senate for nine months, but he has quickly become one of the worst and weirdest members of the upper chamber. Gallego and fellow Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) staged a confrontation with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) in an effort to score some kind of propaganda win […]
Rep. Mikie Sherrill’s (D-NJ) acceptance of Chinese Communist Party-linked money presents a clear security threat to the United States, which should result in an immediate disqualification from New Jersey’s gubernatorial race and a public endangerment prosecution. As shown in campaign finance records, Pin Ni, a Chinese businessman with robust ties to China’s government, gave Sherrill’s […]
“What all the wise men promised has not happened and what all the damned fools said would happen has come to pass.” That was the mordant comment of Lord Melbourne, Queen Victoria’s first prime minister, on the failure of a liberal reform to achieve the results promised with great assurance by the articulate liberal eminences […]
Highlighting the growing strain caused by Ukrainian attacks on its oil refineries, Russia has increased fuel imports from Belarus. At the same time, the Kremlin is reducing both fuel exports and import duties to stabilize domestic supply. These developments follow repeated Ukrainian drone and other sabotage strikes against Russian energy refineries, storage depots, and extraction […]
A few years ago, I walked into the Church of Santa Maria del Carmelo in Traspontina, between the Tiber River and the Vatican, and witnessed something pretty rare: a baptism. Rome has a below-average birth rate for Italy, which has one of the lowest birth rates in Europe, itself in the midst of a baby […]
“All news media run by the [Chinese Communist] Party must work to speak for the Party’s will and its propositions, and protect the Party’s authority and unity.“ — General-Secretary Xi Jinping of the Chinese Communist Party addressing journalists in February 2016. Blatantly undermining the First Amendment, War Secretary Pete Hegseth is breaking his oath of […]
It’s no secret that Democrats have gone to great lengths to enable illegal immigration. They have authorized legislation to pay for hotel rooms, approved funding for prepaid debit cards, and allocated billions of dollars to help illegal immigrants get to the U.S. border. But Tuesday’s decision by California Democrats might be the most absurd yet: […]
Arguments just began for the 2025 U.S. Supreme Court term, and there is a case that conservatives should be tracking because it could bring the first Supreme Court rebuke of the Left’s ongoing campaign of woke lawfare. Chevron v. Plaquemines Parish is a case that arises from a Louisiana parish’s effort to impose massive liability on […]
The honorable work conservative voice and free speech advocate Charlie Kirk cultivated throughout his adult life should not perish in history. Instead, it should be remembered for generations. Federal lawmakers are doing precisely that. Congress has ensured that today, October 15 — what would have been his 32nd birthday — Kirk’s pivotal impact on a polarized […]
