There are no promises Gavin Newsom won’t break

Sure, Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) may be transitioning California’s electric grid to less reliable energy sources and forcing people to buy electric vehicles, but at least he promised to help lower electric vehicle costs for Californians. He isn’t going to keep that promise, of course, but it’s the thought that counts. Upon taking office, President […]

All 50 states are now richer than Britain

Is the United Kingdom really poorer than Mississippi? Have the Brits truly sunk to the point where, if they were to join the United States, they would be the 51st state out of 51? Douglas Carswell, director of the Mississippi Center for Public Policy, first made this claim in 2023. A Conservative and then UK […]

Escalator and escalation

Sometimes, the jokes write themselves. If you were a low-grade comedy writer with a chip on your shoulder and the same liberal opinions as everyone else you know, you might fantasize about a president who came down a golden escalator getting stuck going up an escalator at the United Nations building and then, as a […]

After Charlie Kirk, a Great Awakening?

The collapse of community and the crisis of belonging comprise the biggest stories of the past 50 years. In 2000, Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community sounded the siren on this crisis — the long-term decline of “social capital,” as author Robert Putnam put it. If you read the book closely, you […]

Hamas suffered losses but gained global support for its cause

Responding to Nazi Germany‘s aerial bombing onslaught against European cities during World War II, Arthur Harris, commander of Britain’s own aerial bombing forces, invoked a biblical quote. Harris warned that the Nazis had “sowed the wind and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.” The Nazis did reap the whirlwind of their unprecedented aggression. […]

Trump needs to match action with rhetoric on Russia

President Donald Trump rightly lit into the United Nations on Sept. 23, noting that instead of acting effectively to end wars, all it does is “write a really strongly worded letter and then never follow that letter up.” That day, after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Trump came out with his strongest statement yet […]

While Jimmy Kimmel has returned, the late-night reckoning continues

When Jimmy Kimmel returned to the stage of Jimmy Kimmel Live! after a weeklong suspension that rocked Hollywood and sparked a national firestorm, the audience’s cheers were thunderous. The defiant host directly confronted Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr, whom he lampooned in a biting sketch featuring Robert De Niro as a mob-style censor.  “Every night […]

The Afghan Adjustment Act: A new hope

In the years since the Biden administration abandoned America’s Afghan allies to the Taliban, I’ve told you about my frustrated efforts to save Afghans I served with in the Afghanistan War. Recently, I have new hope with the proposal of the Afghan Adjustment Act cosponsored by Reps. Jason Crow (D-CO) and Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA). I […]

Ian McEwan’s literary future

The year is 2119. The world as we know it has been ravaged and reconfigured. The first catastrophe occurred in the middle of the 21st century when a Russian missile, aimed at New Mexico, fell well short of its target and exploded in the Atlantic. A series of 70-foot waves flooded Europe, West Africa, and […]

The free radical dating strategy

Years ago, around the time that many of my male friends were getting married, I noticed something. A few months after the ceremony — after the wedding pictures were framed and displayed, after the tropical honeymoon was a happy memory — my friends started getting fat. And noticeably so. Their shirts would be stretched taut […]

The violent resistance to enforcing immigration law

THE VIOLENT RESISTANCE TO ENFORCING IMMIGRATION LAW. One troubling subset of the political violence coming from the Left these days is violence directed at federal immigration enforcement officers. There is a group of people in this country who so vehemently oppose the enforcement of federal immigration law that they will take up arms against it. They […]

On the altar of content neutrality

Since Donald Trump’s return to office at the beginning of 2025, much has been made of the idea of the rise of a “woke Right.” Now that they have the governmental — and perhaps even cultural — whip hand, right-wingers are now indulging in the same sorts of speech policing behaviors that came to characterize […]
