After years of court hearings, investigations, open rescues, and protests, the notorious beagle breeding and research facility Ridglan Farms has finally agreed to release 1,500 dogs to rescue organizations. This is certainly a win for animals, but the era of animal testing is far from over, particularly because the federal government enables it. While the […]
Australian lawmakers are considering a new scheme to regulate and to extract revenue from American technology. If enacted, it would impose a 2.25% levy on the Australian revenues of three major platforms unless they strike commercial deals with local news publishers, with the rate falling to as low as 1.5% if enough agreements are reached. […]
The labor union funding California’s Billionaire Tax Act initiative filed more than 1.5 million signatures on April 27, almost double the 875,000 needed to put the measure on November’s ballot. California voters are now a step closer to driving out one of the last remaining engines of economic growth in their state, which is already […]
Derby Day at Churchill Downs begins long before the crowd arrives, with horses training at the track since March and a backside community of 600 workers on-site.
Heroism is an innate virtue. There’s nothing we wouldn’t do to protect our loved ones — and most of us like to imagine we’d extend that same altruism to any innocent in danger. We fantasize about leaping into action, taking on an assassin, a horde of assassins, even an entire criminal syndicate, if that’s what […]
Whitney Cummings, known for acting, podcasting, and standup, was recently on Bill Maher’s show where she joked that she was anti-animals now. If you know Cummings’s story at all, you would know she is quite active in rehousing needy animals and adopting a ton of pets and convincing her famous friends, like Dr. Andrew Huberman, […]
I grew up during the 1980s and ‘90s, and I was unknowingly spoiled with parental time and attention. I had no idea how blessed I was as a child until I took a vacation with my children last week. It was a vacation I had put off for years because everything got in the way: […]
Not satisfied with their government’s announcement that they will soon recognize a “State of Palestine” — while blaming Israel for three of four reasons why the hallowed two-state solution has never materialized — Canadians have gone one step further, giving us a moment that would be laughable if it weren’t so grotesque. Last week, the […]
For too long, Left-wing ideologues have conflated the idea of ‘human rights’ with adherence to Left-wing ideologies that do not represent the views of the U.S. as a whole. The State Department’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, which produces the annual Country Reports on Human Rights Practices, became, in Secretary of State Marco […]
Let's applaud Gloucester Township, NJ, for putting parents on notice that they're on the hook for trouble their kids cause; too bad state authorities...
It’s a movie we’d seen over and over again during the first Trump administration, and now the sequel nobody asked for continues in Trump 2.0: the false narrative. Here’s how it works. Trump is accused of something. Evidence is scant, ambiguous or nonexistent, so a narrative is built using “experts” to back the narrative, which […]
It's odd how little credit Mayor Eric Adams gets for his relentless, steady and successful drive to get more housing, including more affordable homes,...
DC GOVERNMENT THROWS LEGAL SANDWICH AT TRUMP. Perhaps the most enduring image to come from President Donald Trump‘s anti-crime initiative in Washington, D.C., is the viral video of a 37-year-old man, a District of Columbia resident and, at the time, an employee of the Justice Department, pitching a fit and throwing a sandwich at a […]
One of The New York Time's marquee columnists has agreed — grudgingly, stubbornly, kicking and screaming — that President Donald Trump is right: There's...
