Former Attorney General Pam Bondi is recovering from treatment for thyroid cancer, just weeks after leaving the Justice Department.
Bondi told CNN she had surgery a few weeks ago...
As President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration approaches, we can recall several great political lessons learned in 2024. Perhaps the most important one is that the American people have long been underestimated by the elites in media, government, universities, and corporations. These groups frequently clutch their pearls at controversies they deem important, but often misread the priorities of […]
The Left’s radical attempts to destroy any differences between men and women make the law an unforgiving master over being reasonable and empowers busybody lawyer leeches looking to make a quick buck at the expense of local communities. Lima Restaurant has been crushed under the boot of an unforgiving antidiscrimination law in California. The family-run […]
The media has largely ignored a disturbing trend: Russia is openly using chemical weapons against Ukraine. Ukraine’s army support services say Russia has carried out 4,800 chemical attacks against its troops since Russian President Vladimir Putin‘s invasion. Kyiv has counted a resulting 3 deaths and 2,000 hospitalizations. Moscow is not the only culprit increasingly turning to nonconventional […]
With the Supreme Court set to hear arguments in TikTok v. Garland on Friday, President-elect Donald Trump recently asked the court to give him the opportunity to decide whether TikTok, the social media platform responsible for undermining the mental health of millions of impressionable children through its targeted algorithms, should be banned in the U.S. […]
Netflix recently released a stand-up special in which comedian Michelle Buteau claims to be making “herstory” as the first female comedian to hold a show at Radio City Music Hall. Given her obviously attention-seeking and leftist pandering criticism of Dave Chappelle’s transgender jokes in his award-winning Netflix show The Closer, perhaps she should have offered her historical moment […]
There is a photo that exemplifies the paradox of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination as secretary of the Health and Human Services Department: Kennedy is sitting at a table in Trump One with President-elect Donald Trump, Don Trump Jr., and Elon Musk, with a table of McDonald’s spread out between them. Kennedy grimaces over an […]
Just who does Nate Bargatze think he is? Whenever America’s top-grossing comedian releases a new special (his most recent, Your Friend, Nate Bargatze, on Netflix now), this is often the question on coastal critics’ lips. It’s less accusation than earnest inquiry, for maybe if he tells them directly, they’ll be spared the difficulty of figuring […]
The British are renowned for their class system, their tea-drinking, and, now that Elon Musk has told the world about it, the grooming, rape, trafficking, and torture of underage girls by gangs of mostly Pakistani Muslim origin. This abuse has gone on for decades. The police have documented it in at least 50 towns and […]
Two weeks ago, the YouTube channel Hodinkee released a video featuring noted Lost actor Daniel Dae Kim, in which he spent 37 uninterrupted minutes talking about … buying watches in retail stores. Not acting, his personal life, or his experience as a Korean-born artist building a career in the United States. Just the purchase and […]
One is tempted to describe the latest film by Halina Reijn (Bodies Bodies Bodies) as a simple antifeminist parable. Called Babygirl, the new movie stars Nicole Kidman as a tech CEO married to a successful stage director in Manhattan. Unhappy in love, Kidman’s Romy Mathis begins an affair with an intern named Samuel (Harris Dickinson) […]
There’s a joke that goes around on Halloween about dressing up as a gifted child. “What are you supposed to be?” people ask. Punchline: “I was supposed to be a lot of things.” If that joke resonates with you, then you may want to pick up Henry Oliver’s new book Second Act: What Late Bloomers […]
Three years after her death, I find myself having grown tired of Joan Didion. I am tired of the books about her and the book-length compendiums of her books. I am tired of her likeness in photographs, her presence in documentaries, and those of her sayings that have become repeated as mantras — “We tell […]
It was supposed to be the “Grand Central Station of the West.” And in 2010, every big-name Democrat in northern California was at the groundbreaking of the Transbay Transit Center in downtown San Francisco. Then-Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer were there, as was then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and of course, then-mayor Gavin Newsom. “I […]
The most politically damaging video to emerge from the massive wildfires burning Los Angeles could have been of Mayor Karen Bass staring blankly into a camera like a deer in headlights as reporters asked her if she had anything to say to the thousands of people whose homes were incinerated. However, Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) […]
