THE SHEER velocity of the wreckage is almost impossible to process. “Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom,” Benjamin Franklin wrote. In just the past few weeks, the American president has threatened military action against Denmark, a NATO ally, if it doesn’t surrender Greenland to the United States. He moved to punish a US … Read more
Do you know what might have saved Renee Good’s life? A necktie. Bear with me. Good’s death was the result of a lack of professionalism on the part of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. Whatever silly shenanigans Good may have been up to before the shooting, the video of the incident makes it clear that … Read more
We are not here to be bystanders; political power ultimately rests with us. Last week, I was a guest on Michael Medved’s show, and the host asked a question that surprised me: If the Democrats take the House and the Senate after the midterm elections, will they impeach Donald Trump a third time? I was … Read more
Criminals are, no surprise, harder to catch than law-abiding people. If you will indulge my revisiting an old theme for a new purpose: There is a reason—a bad, dumb, bureaucratically self-serving reason—that U.S. gun control efforts are mainly focused on sporting goods shops and the people who do business with them. The reason is that … Read more
Every day millions of parents put their children under the care of public school teachers, administrators, and support staff. Their trust, however, is frequently broken by predators in authority in what appears to be the largest ongoing sexual abuse scandal in our nation’s history. Given the roughly 50 million students in U.S. K-12 schools each … Read more
There are too many criminals in prison and Mamdani wants to let half of them out. Mamdani complained that the Adams administration had increased the number of criminals in Rikers Island by a thousand and claimed that “we can reduce that jail population to less than four thousand”. The infamous New York City prison has … Read more
Chicago is at 338 murders so far this year and over 1,500 shot. Why? It’s a mystery.

Texas has an Islam problem. And it’s getting worse. Charges have been filed against three men in connection with a shooting on Sunday, September 21, at The Rac Katy on FM 2855. It happened as youth baseball player and coaches were on the field. A coach for one of the teams is recovering after he … Read more
Zohran Mamdani should get the hint and scrap his proposal for New York City. The cities of Albuquerque and New York don’t have a great deal in common. One is a densely packed East Coast metropolis, while the other is a relatively spread out (and much smaller) city in the American Southwest. But they do … Read more
Is anyone talking about the leadership qualities of Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker? No. Of course not. He is a liar who has run his failed state into the ground, damaging all who can’t escape and still live there. Pritzker has inherited billions of dollars from his family’s hotel empire, allowing him to indulge every whim … Read more
The Constitution is designed to check the power grabs of reckless men. Will Congress and the Courts defend the rule of law against an increasingly lawless executive branch? “I don’t give a sh*t what you call it.” So wrote Vice President J.D. Vance in response to journalist Brian Krassenstein, who questioned Vance’s assertion that assassinating … Read more
On Wednesday morning, the students at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis were attending a Mass in the church next to the school when, suddenly, the stained-glass windows were shattered by a hail of gunfire. The fusillade didn’t stop immediately. Witnesses said that between 50 and 100 bullets were pumped into the church, injuring at least … Read more
Big city mayors’ progressive ambitions are on a collision course with fiscal reality. Progressives were elated when Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani won an upset victory over former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the Democrats’ New York mayoral primary this past June. The 33-year-old self-described socialist’s win “sends a clear message,” gushed Jared Abbott in Jacobin. “A bold … Read more
Perónism: the one import that Trump likes. When economist Javier Milei won the Argentine presidency in 2023, the international media portrayed his victory in the light of America’s burgeoning populist movement. “Who is Javier Milei?” asked The Guardian. Describing him as the country’s “new far-right president,” the publication compared him to “his fellow right-wing populists … Read more
Republican states aren’t high-crime states. Only Democrat cities are. Gov. Gavin Newsom and elements of the media keep making the claim that Republican states ‘red states’ have higher crime than Democrat states or ‘blue states’. This is really one of those ‘lying with statistics’ exercises. The national political split is in great part an urban-rural … Read more
How progressive rhetoric on immigration masks condescension and control. It has become a familiar scene: A Democratic strategist sits on a cable news panel, the host mentions illegal immigration, and phrases such as “white privilege,” “doing the jobs Americans won’t do,” and “no human being is illegal” drop so predictably you could play bingo. Throw … Read more
They are united around a shared desire to see the destruction of the West. There is something strange happening in the “social justice” movements du jour: They have all been fused with anti-Israel activism. Rioters in L.A., environmental activists, anti-capitalists, feminists, and a New York City mayoral candidate — at this point, the anti-Israel movement … Read more
JB Pritzker is progressives’ walking ATM. It is impossible to contemplate the political career of Illinois Governor Jay Robert (JB) Pritzker, one of America’s wealthiest politicians, without the starting point of a ten-figure net worth. He’s not a particularly gifted orator or a policy innovator, and his state is limping along economically. Yet, when Forbes … Read more
Dangerous policies, incoherent ideas, and amoral politics. The Democrats have responded to their repudiation by the voters by tripling down on the toxic ideas and preposterous policies that make sense only when one remembers that, as DOGE has exposed, in the end, they are patent grifts, opportunities for enriching themselves and their plutocratic, corporate globalist … Read more
If you want to understand the dilemma of today’s Democratic Party, have a look at this comic book called Racial Capitalism and Prison Abolition. Thanks to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, this comic book, or its close equivalent, will soon be forced on Minnesota’s students. Because Walz has just added an “ethnic studies” strand to his … Read more
In Newbury, a fibreglass effigy of Paddington Bear was torn down by two drunken RAF engineers. For once, this was an act of vandalism the police would prosecute — though of course CCTV footage and the severed head of Paddington sticking out of a car boot made it just easy enough for the modern British … Read more
If you expected a second Trump term to usher in some sort of new era of free speech, you might by now be feeling some rueful secondthoughts. In the latest development, Trump’s pick for federal prosecutor in Washington, DC, Edward R. Martin Jr., has sent a threat/investigation letter to Rep. Robert Garcia (D‑CA) over comments … Read more
New Mexico State Police Sgt. Toby LaFave, “the face of DWI enforcement,” has been implicated in a corruption scandal that goes back decades and involves “many officers.” “Thank you for helping ENDWI,” says a poster that the New Mexico Department of Transportation produced as part of its long-running campaign against drunk driving. The poster features … Read more
