On April 1, 114 guests and 61 crew members, unaware of the presence of a killer virus among them, boarded the MV Hondius. That ship has earned the moniker "Ship of Fools." Because of the top brass's reckless disregard of infection control principles, the ship's passengers and thousands of people around the world have been exposed to the rare ...Read more

Young people now blame capitalism for poverty, racism, high prices, even climate change.

They listen to people like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who says, "Capitalism ... is the absolute pursuit of profit at all human, environmental and social cost. That is not a redeemable system."

Give me a break.

Yes, capitalism is often ugly. It ...Read more

Among the $308.37 billion in goods that the United States imported from the People's Republic of China in 2025, the No. 1 category was described by the Census Bureau as "cell phones and other household goods." Americans last year purchased $39,246,893,116 worth of these items manufactured in that communist regime.

Not surprisingly, Tim Cook, ...Read more

One of the games in scandal politics is about "optics" -- when a public official does something that just looks bad. Barack Obama fans pretend that his only scandal was wearing a tan suit to a press conference in the summer of 2014.

The latest example is Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy filming a video series for YouTube with his ...Read more

INDIANA -- Tuesday evening's primary race here in the Hoosier State once again proved that the press, both local and national, still does not understand the impact that President Donald Trump has on the electorate. Nor do they understand his enduring appeal, as Indiana Republican voters unequivocally sided with the challengers over those who ...Read more

The new consumer prices report showing a 3.8% price rise in April confirms what Americans have been complaining about for months: Inflation is continuing to squeeze family budgets.

It's indisputable that oil and fertilizer supply disruptions in the Middle East are driving up prices here at home.

But that's only part of the inflation story. ...Read more

America loves to celebrate mothers while doing little to inspire young women to become them.

The biggest news this Mother's Day is how few new moms there are. The U.S. fertility rate hit another record low, according to CDC data released last month. There were 53.1 births per 1,000 women of childbearing age. That was a 1% drop from 2024 and a...Read more

President Donald Trump recently announced that he was reducing U.S. military presence in Germany by at least 5,000 troops, with plans to "cut way down" the 70,000 active-duty military personnel in Europe.

The move comes on the heels of Western European nations rejecting Trump's request for help in opening the Strait of Hormuz after the ...Read more

In 1921, Woodrow Wilson, the first of America's four transformative progressive presidents, became the first president to remain in Washington and make the nation's capital his permanent home after leaving office. In very mild defense of the man who did more than any other to establish the administrative state and thus pervert America's ...Read more

Leftists in the media cannot stand the idea that Team Trump is coming to the defense of white males at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. They believe white males should never file a complaint, given their centuries of massive white male privilege.

Last week, The New York Times reported scornfully on how discrimination claims by white...Read more

Knowingly or not, President Donald Trump, in his decision to attack Iran, has embarked on a foreign policy that has been, on and off, both persistent and controversial in the great English-speaking nations. You can trace it back at least to the Glorious Revolution of 1688-89: the ouster of King James II of England and his replacement by his son-...Read more

The call is coming from inside the house.

The Supreme Court's decision in Louisiana v. Callais has made progressives even more determined to delegitimize the Supreme Court, and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is among them.

In a dissent involving a post-decision procedural question, Jackson accused the majority of acting out of pure ...Read more

In 200-plus years of interpreting the free speech clause of the First Amendment, the courts have narrowed and expanded its scope. The Supreme Court employed a particularly narrow approach during much of the last century, through two world wars and then the Red Scare in the 1950s.

Thankfully, in the 1960s, the Warren Court began a remarkable and...Read more

In the debate over redistricting, one truth is too often buried beneath legal jargon and partisan maneuvering: Gerrymandering is, at its core, about voter dilution. It is the quiet engineering of political outcomes, line by line, until communities that should speak with strength are instead reduced to whispers.

For decades, one of the most ...Read more

President Donald Trump and Congress want to help you increase your savings. And you should. At the household level, saving is the foundation of financial security and the seed capital for a better retirement. At the economy-wide level, savings fund investment that expands the capital stock, raises wages and grows the economy. A society that ...Read more

There are six months left before the midterm elections. Here are a few observations about the current state of things:

1. Democrat policies produce chaos, and the media doesn't call them out on it.

Virtually every major problem our cities are facing is a direct consequence of Democrats in power and the disastrous policies they push through: ...Read more
