Dear Jake Tapper, You co-wrote a new book in which you brazenly accuse the Biden administration of orchestrating a “cover-up” to conceal the former president’s cognitive decline. But you were complicit. You played a major role. Why did Democrats and media co-conspirators, like...
Ah, these Mondays. These Memorial Day Mondays. Honoring the sacrifice of so many and remembering what conflicts, large and small, have cost us in the nation’s blood and treasure. There are so many beautiful places of honor where many of them now rest. NAS Pensacola has a National Cemetery. When we first moved here, it...
Now that Texas and South Carolina have passed school choice bills, parents will be able to choose the best school for their kids in 17 states. Why not all states? After all, competition improves services. The Post Office couldn’t...
This morning’s Gospel reading is John 14:23–29: Jesus said to his disciples: “Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him. Whoever does not love me does not keep my words; yet the word you hear is not mine...
Here’s an economics lesson that belongs in the textbooks. Student loan debt soared to more than $1.5 trillion during the Biden presidency, and the response by Washington was to “forgive” hundreds of billions of these unpaid loans by deadbeat borrowers and let the taxpayers pick up the...
America’s largest abortion provider is struggling against a downward trend since the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision clarified that abortion is not a constitutional right but a matter for state laws. Last August the NY Times reported that abortion clinics all over the country were going broke. In February of this year the Times offered a...
McKEESPORT, Pennsylvania — Take the left off of Nessley Avenue after climbing the switchback up from this city’s once-thriving downtown business district. For the next three blocks, you’ll find yourself on the brick-paved portion of Jefferson Street. Despite the impact weather has had on the bricks, giving...
The first rule in any investigation: Follow the money. The New York Post did just that with the man who slaughtered two Israeli embassy employees outside a Jewish museum this week. Isabel Vincent traces the path that Elias Rodriguez has taken over the last several years on his way to becoming a cowardly terrorist assassin,...
The surest way to trigger the collapse of New York City is to elect an antisemitic mayor. Throughout history, rising antisemitism is a bellwether of societal ruin: When attacks on Jews are tolerated or encouraged, the dissolution of everyone’s rights and the abandonment of basic freedoms follow....
Los Angeles is hosting the 2028 Summer Olympics. The games were awarded to the city back in 2017 and since then it is preparing for the arrival of tens of thousands of visitors.

It was back in October that word first broke of British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s intention to turn over the Chagos Island chain to the country of Mauritius. This impacts United States security directly, as our great ‘unsinkable aircraft carrier’ in the Indian Ocean, Diego Garcia, sits in the middle of the Chagos Islands....
It’s hard to believe it has been six years since the Smollett hoax, but it was Jan. 29, 2019 when it happened. Today, Smollett agreed to settle a civil suit with the city by paying $50,000 to the local charity of his choice. Last month, federal court records revealed the city and Smollett had reached...
Hear me out–Rahm Emanuel may be the best candidate for president the Democrats could put forward. Of course, that makes it an even bigger longshot than it usually is for any candidate. President Rahm Emanuel? He Thinks So. https://t.co/pKxjddSdTj — David Strom (@DavidStrom) May 23, 2025 I’m not a big fan of Rahm Emanuel or...
Both Beege and I have been writing about this problem for a few years. In my case, I think my first post about problems with the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train system was back in 2018. But post-pandemic the problem really went into overdrive. Prior to the pandemic about 70% of the funding for...
I seem to be on a ‘renewables suck so bad they blow’ kick here all of a sudden. But holy smokes – it’s as if the floodgates have opened and commonsense, coupled with a cold firehose dose of reality checks, is beginning to wash through state houses and parliaments all over the world. And hallelujah....
