While many are too quick to dismiss the entire “Make America Healthy Again” movement as a compilation of Instagram health advice and fast-talking pseudoscience, it’s undeniable that parts of MAHA are crucially important to the health of our society. Concerns over ever-expanding vaccine schedules, government subsidies driving the use of high fructose corn syrup, and […]
As a student at the University of Pennsylvania, majoring in Political Science and Russian and Eastern European Studies, there was a real-world application assignment where we analyzed what it would take for Russia to abandon its occupation of Crimea. We discussed imposing sanctions, theorized about freezing assets, and discussed several other geopolitical resolutions. Ultimately, we […]
As there often is among people in their 20s, a gap is growing within Generation Z regarding experience and preference. Their political divergence is a growing factor that holds implications for the future of marriage. Most indicators suggest that the long-standing decline of marriage will continue — cultural trends certainly point in that direction. The […]
When politicians claim, or officials claim on their behalf, that they have been “absolutely clear,” they are usually muddying the waters. Sometimes this is intended to obscure future ambiguity, but most often it is an effort to dismiss the very idea that previous statements or actions might have been confusing. Former President Barack Obama notoriously […]
Americans greeted Pope St. John Paul II with open arms during his seven visits to the United States. Pundits often said he received a rockstar welcome, but perhaps only the Beatles in 1964 were met with greater adulation than the Polish pontiff. Pope Francis received a more tepid response during his lone visit to America […]
There is no shortage of books or reports on the U.S.-China rivalry, especially as artificial intelligence portends to become a nuclear-like inescapable linchpin of this competition. We recently extensively dealt here with the geopolitical consequences of the AI race as laid bare in the “Super Intelligence Strategy” paper by Eric Schmidt and two executives from […]
What is a little ideological corruption among friends, former vice presidential candidates, and progressive district attorneys? Such is the question in Minnesota, where a 33-year-old man was discovered to be vandalizing Teslas. The man is Dylan Adams, who caused $20,000 in damages because Tesla CEO Elon Musk is working as an adviser to the Trump […]
The editors at National Public Radio made a decision to mislead their readers about a current Supreme Court Case. “Supreme Court weighs who should decide public school curriculum: Judges or school boards?” Of course, the case of Mahmoud v. Taylor was about nothing of the sort. So it’s worth inquiring what was so important in […]
For many men, especially those who consider themselves part of the online “red pill” or “black pill” communities, there is no worse fate in life than finding oneself in a “friend zone” relationship with a desirable woman. For the red pill community, named after a scene in the 1999 film The Matrix, women automatically sort […]
The White House, March 31, 2025. A surreal scene unfolds in the president’s private residence. Bill Maher, the acerbic comedian who has spent a decade roasting President Donald Trump as a narcissist, wannabe dictator, and threat to democracy, is breaking bread with the 47th president. Kid Rock, the MAGA maestro who brokered this unlikely summit, […]
If a person didn’t know any better, he or she might be under the impression that Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) flew to El Salvador earlier this month to demand the release of an imprisoned political dissident fighting for democracy. No, he was just checking in on alleged MS-13 gang member and former illegal immigrant […]
Some police officers are corrupt, some are lazy, but many do an exceptionally demanding job with courage and professionalism. Ask any veteran officer about their life’s work, and they will likely tell you two things: First, that they wouldn’t do anything else, and second, that the job takes a psychological toll. Officers see too much […]
The 2028 election seems as if it is a lifetime away. Still, some Democrats are already striving for the prize of becoming the party’s presidential nominee. The problem for the Democrats is that the contenders thus far are underwhelming. Many Democrats must be thinking, “Can’t we do better?” President Donald Trump’s defeat of former Vice […]
