Before July 13, almost nobody had heard of Darline Graham Nordone, but now she is a U.S. senator. How did she get the job? By being the sister of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who held the seat until his death on July 11. This reeks of nepotism. Critics say it looks like a hereditary monarchy, […]
Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) again acquiesced to her socialist overlords this week when she issued the nation’s first statewide moratorium on data center construction. Hochul was immediately thanked by socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who is pushing her own national data center ban in Congress.

Last week, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. testified before the Senate Finance Committee, where lawmakers pressed him on his decision to remove COVID-19 vaccines from the children’s immunization schedule among many other things.

Future generations will regard with shock and wonder decisions by Democratic states about questions raised by the interaction of transgender ideology, religious freedom, and the First Amendment.
