“Truth. Justice. And the American way!” Of course, that is the iconic phrase that was part and parcel with earlier iterations of Superman, both in comics and on the big screen. But along the way, as the franchise became more woke, the phrase was phased out not so much for the “truth” or “justice” part, but because the “American […]
The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) — America’s second‑largest teachers union — has teamed up with Microsoft, OpenAI, and Anthropic to launch a $23 million AI Teaching Academy in New York City. Its stated goal: Train teachers to better use large language models (LLMs) in classrooms nationwide in preparation for their further implementation in the workforce. […]
Six years after Jeffrey Epstein evidently hung himself to death in a Manhattan jail cell, the infamous child rapist now commands more public attention than any other time since his shocking supposed suicide. Despite the Department of Justice and the FBI trying to close the case with their declaration that Epstein indeed killed himself and […]
California Democrats try to use the weight of the state’s economy to regulate how the entire country operates. This extends California’s inflationary policies to the rest of the nation. The Justice Department is suing California over several egg regulations that it contends have kept egg prices higher than they should be. Among the laws in […]
I enrolled in Columbia University’s undergraduate school for nontraditional students, the School of General Studies, in 2017 as a 33-year-old progressive Democrat. By the...

The intent was clear: to unleash the potential of nonintoxicating hemp to benefit agriculture, health, and manufacturing and create jobs. “Rope, not dope,” was how many in Congress described the opportunity at the time. Elected officials across the nation were surprised to discover that an unintended […]
It’s an achievement that could be considered another example of the Trump administration’s “promises made, promises kept” mantra. With their commitment to purging radical left-wing cultural indoctrination programs that have corroded the government, the presidential administration recently removed another government initiative from the Department of Homeland Security. During the last week of June, Secretary Kristi […]
It’s true — every attempt to start a third party in the modern era has ended poorly. Ross Perot poured millions into his Reform Party only to see it peak with his 1992 presidential run before it faded into obscurity by the end of the decade. Centrist No Labels failed to field a nominee in […]
Roughly 50 years ago, scientists pursued a line of inquiry about the creation and development of human embryos in the lab. As of now, the extent of this research is limited to the first 14 days following fertilization — 14 days after one cell from mom joins one cell from dad to create a cell […]
Every United Nations peacekeeping force should work toward its own dissolution. Otherwise, it is no peacekeeping force; it is a welfare program for participating nations funded by the United States’s taxpayers and the rest of the world. High on the list of these offenders is the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL). Established 47 years ago […]
Amid the noise and theatrics of the capital, something rare is happening in Washington, D.C. Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr is laying down a vision that’s not just technocratic policy. It’s populist, muscular, and unapologetically pro-American.
