The 'Public' Broadcasters Go Soft on Hasan Piker
Just like the networks spent months helpfully skipping over the Nazi tattoo on the chest of Maine Democrat Graham Platner, they have largely ignored radical leftist influencer Hasan Piker, who has campaigned with Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed. ABC and NBC haven't found him, while CBS broke the mold with two stories.

What If Factories Had Gotten The Data Center Treatment?
When American manufacturing was truly coming into its own in the early 20th century, workers sometimes labored 12-hour days seven days a week and risked life and limb working near dangerous machinery, while factories blackened the skies of American cities.
Yet some of the same people who insist that we need to reindustrialize to return to a ...Read more
Stop the Democrats' Scheme to Pack the Supreme Court
Democrats are in a quandary over the Supreme Court. Every four years, they've warned their voters that electing a Republican president will lead to more conservative Supreme Court justices. And yet since Ronald Reagan's election in 1980 through today, they've lost more presidential elections than they've won. Maybe the voters are telling ...Read more
Trump’s Canadian problems keep getting worse
PARIS — U.S. President Donald Trump has a talent for finding political landmines like a pig sniffs out truffles. Then promptly blowing himself up with them. Repeatedly. He keeps picking fights with Canada that inadvertently create more leverage against himself.
Trump reacted to Canada walking away from his generous offer of vassalization and ...Read more
Arthurdale's New Deal Experiment, and the Debate Over Socialism
ARTHURDALE, West Virginia -- The road into this quiet Preston County community gives little warning that it was once the setting for one of the New Deal's most ambitious, and most debated, experiments.
Ninety-three years ago, Arthurdale became the first experimental community established under the federal subsistence-homesteads program, an ...Read more
Cal Thomas: A message for men over 50
The diagnosis was not a surprise – well, yes it was, because like many men with a health issue we try to deny it, or delay treatment when everyone knows that “early detection” is critical to a cure.
My PSA (prostate-specific antigen) had been slowly creeping upward for the...Read more

The Rarity of Freedom
This well-known rhetorical flourish at the beginning of the Declaration of Independence needs closer consideration.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness," it states.
Look...Read more

Don't Fear Flock Cameras
We have met the enemy -- and it is watching us.
There's a growing backlash against Flock cameras, the automated license plate readers that have become ubiquitous across the country.
The cameras take images of license plates, which are then stored in a searchable database that police departments can query in the course of investigations.

El-Sayed's Insane Circumcision Analogy
"Sex changes for minors. Do you support that?" Fox News host Jesse Watters recently asked Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed.
"So you think it's OK for a parent to slash his kid's ding-a-ling off?" Watters finally interjects.
"Are you circumcised?" El-Sayed asked.
"Circumcision's different than castration," Watters shot back....Read more
Clarence Thomas Played the Long Game. He Won.
An important new book by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), "Going Further," calls attention anew to the life and career of the single greatest living American, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
For many years after Thomas arrived on the court in the early 1990s, his conservative, originalist views were relegated to dissenting opinions. Three and ...Read more
Our Broken Trust
In April of 2020, San Clemente, Calif., dumped 37 tons of sand into a skate park to keep teenagers out of it. Down the coast, deputies arrested a man for paddleboarding alone in the Pacific Ocean. Towns unbolted basketball rims. The mayor of Los Angeles told Angelenos that snitches get rewards, and, God help us, people snitched. Then Gavin ...Read more
Democrats Try to Brush Aside 'Woke 1'
"'Woke 1' was crazy." So said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on ABC News' "This Week" earlier this month.
She said she was quoting New York City Councilman Chi Osse, whom The New York Times characterizes as "far left." This was where Ocasio-Cortez seemed to be located on the ideological spectrum after her surprise defeat of House ...Read more

Twilight's Last Gleaming
There is a point in the decline of republics when the problem is no longer that government breaks its own laws. Governments will always behave unlawfully. The deeper problem comes when the constitutional machinery designed to prevent those acts stops functioning -- when spending becomes detached from arithmetic, presidential power becomes ...Read more
The Jeffries-Kushner Meeting Reveals More Than Either Party Will Admit
Private meetings in Washington often speak more loudly than public speeches. The recent meeting between House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump's son-in-law and influential outside adviser, is one of those moments.
The two New Yorkers reportedly discussed immigration, housing, affordability and possible...Read more
Truths and Omissions as US Hits $40 Trillion in Debt
The U.S. national debt just crossed the $40 trillion threshold, doubling in less than a decade. Washington politicians have responded with their favorite fiscal game: blaming the other party. Democrats say Republican tax cuts are the culprit. Republicans say Democratic spending is the root cause. But both parties are responsible, with both ...Read more
Cal Thomas: Pessimism leads to defeat
If you have been paying attention to media reports, many politicians, including some Republicans and those often-wrong pollsters, believe the November election is a foregone conclusion. According to them, Democrats will win a House majority and possibly take over the Senate, too. History proves it, they say, because the party out of power almost...Read more
