One would think that after an election in which Democrats were thoroughly trounced on the matter of illegal immigration, their party might be looking for an opportunity to show it is capable of delivering law and order. However, that is not the case in Los Angeles, where Mayor Karen Bass, fresh off letting entire neighborhoods burn […]
The grownups in charge of the Democratic Party have made their share of errors and canoodled with extremists on all sorts of matters. However, in one regard, they’ve been pretty successful in keeping their party kind of normal: speaking about marriage and family as if they are good things. This has taken some effort by […]
I don’t think anybody quite understands what President Donald Trump is proposing in Gaza. At its most idealized form, anyway. Think of the territory reframed as a kind of Dubai. A sparkling, sprawling, high-rise fusion-mix of resort, conference center, Ferrari dealership, off-shore banking haven, yacht marina, and hotel spa. Gazans get rehoused while the futuristic […]

Fire. Brimstone. Locusts. Plagues. Expensive avocados and Mexican beer. This was to be the fallout from President Donald Trump’s imposed tariffs on Mexico and Canada. It was going to be the end of the world as we know it, and people in the country wouldn’t be able to afford guacamole for the Super Bowl. That […]
A man was murdered in Sweden last week by Islamists. What was the response of the authorities? To make it harder for people such as him to get on the wrong side of the extremists in the first place. Salwan Momika, an Iraqi Christian asylum-seeker, was shot in an apartment in Stockholm after he burned […]
