This isn’t the usual sort of thing we write about here but it’s Friday and I was struck by this NY Times opinion piece published last month titled “There’s a Link Between Therapy Culture and Childlessness.” In 2023 the U.S. fertility rate fell to a record low. Some of the decline can be explained by...
Hmmm. The Scottish National Party appears to have had the substantial backing of the Iranian government. At least it sure seems that way. How do we know? Dozens of the most prominent pro-SNP X accounts that accounted for about 250,000 pro-Independence posts on X all went silent at once–on the day Israel started bombing the...
The University of Virginia’s president, James Ryan, resigned today under pressure from the Trump administration.

No doubt that leftists will scream that the Court has backed the “Christian Nationalists” or make some similar complaint, so it’s hilarious that the case that opens the door for parents to keep their kids from being subjected to alphabet ideology in the schools will forever be known as Mahmoud v Taylor. Mahmoud. That is...
All in all, is the upcoming counter-US summit in Brazil destined to be just another BRICS in the wall? Xi don’t need no education … For those who don’t know about this effort to counter Western dominance in capital and currency, BRICS formed in 2009-10 as a brainchild of Russian foreign minister Yevgeny Primakov. A...
Gov. Gavin Newsom has filed a lawsuit against Fox News, claiming he was defamed by host Jesse Waters. Politico notes that elements of the lawsuit seem to have been chosen for symbolic rather than practical reasons. The California governor accused Fox News of defamation in a lawsuit Friday morning, alleging the network should fork over...
Trump is magic. If you believe that acknowledging and adapting to reality is magical, that is. Not only is he reshaping American foreign policy, but he is also reshaping trade policy, cajoling our European allies into paying their fair share of the common defense, and, scaring the bejeezus out of our adversaries. He is also...
Today the Supreme Court ruled that parents must be given the option to opt their young children out of LGBT readings in Maryland, at least while the case is ongoing.

Who could have guessed that Hunter Biden’s gravy train would evaporate once his father left office? Not me. He was such an important modern artist that buyers were knocking down his door to lay down tens of thousands of dollars for one of his much-coveted paintings. You would think that, given his substantial income stream,...
This is too awful to check…but I had to after I saw it on a friend’s X feed when I fired up the ‘puter this morning. So split the vote between Cuomo and Adams and let the terrorist sympathizer WIN! WEEEE! — tree hugging s*ster 🎃 (@WelbornBeege) June 27, 2025 VURT DA FURK?! Not 48...
Hawaii and Texas judges, hardest hit. And maybe legal strategists who benefit from forum-shopping as well. In a 6-3 decision released this morning, the Supreme Court put a stop to the practice of district courts issuing nationwide or “universal” injunctions against the executive branch in exercises of its constitutional authority. The case of Trump v...
The Biden administration conducted the largest human trafficking operation in modern history, and Trump’s ICE has begun saving the children who were trafficked. Biden administration trafficked illegal immigrant children 🤬 Illegal migrant children smuggled across the border during the Biden administration have been rescued from sex traffickers. https://t.co/7BMxbl0NQ3 — Georgia Log Cabin (@GeorgiaLogCabin) June 27,...
H.L. Mencken once observed that democracy offered voters to get the government they wanted — good and hard. His cynicism has found vindication once again in Denver, where the city council voted in May to throw car owners and vehicular assault victims under the bus in favor of expanding their idea of “sanctuary city.” Unanimously,...
