The Department of Homeland Security announced an investigation today into a California program which provides cash payments to migrants. The Trump administration announced Monday that it has launched an investigation into California’s Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants, a state program that provides monthly cash benefits to aged, blind, and disabled non-citizens who are ineligible for...
These people are whack – lemme just throw that out there first. They haven’t attacked anyone yet. They’re trying to play it off like it’s an evangelical tent revival or something. Left-wing religious activists have mobilized to try to shut down the ICE detention facility in Newark, N.J. that was targeted last week by the...
This has been a matter of debate since the first Trump administration. Then as now, Democrats and other left-wing groups would file complaints in reliably left-leaning courts and some federal judge would issue a “nationwide injunction” to stop whatever the left wanted stopped. Attorney General Bill Barr was arguing this was a problem back in...
As Britons have expressed their growing anger about the de-Britainization of once-Great Britain, the Establishment has mobilized the oppressive powers of the state to shut them up. Until about 10 seconds ago, you could get a visit from the police for saying that migrants should be forced to learn English or that mass migration has...
Don’t be fooled by the narrower topic focus of Amy Alkon’s new book, GOING MENOPOSTAL: What You (and Your Doctor) Need to Know about the Real Science of Menopause and Perimenopause. Amy’s latest book gives readers a highly entertaining journey through her personal experiences in dealing with her own menopause arc, and offers plenty of...
Reading the headlines I thought at first maybe Harvard had issued two new letters to the Trump Administration. The Washington Post story was headlined “Harvard rejects Trump administration’s claims as funding battle escalates.” Sounds pretty resistance-y to me. But the NY Times headline about what turns out to be the same letter is headlined very...
If there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s paying for someone else’s indulgences. You know, like the ‘Pay my student loans‘ kind of crap the left is always pulling. Yo. You took those out, you pay for them. My attitude extends to things like owning a house in a high tax state and being able...
You have to hand it to Gavin Newsom. He understands that being a brazen hypocrite is an asset in politics. For 20 years, he has been a left-wing crusader, serving as Mayor of San Francisco, Lieutenant Governor of California, and now Governor. Every step along the way, he has been the slick and generally attractive,...
Being that it was Mother’s Day yesterday, hopefully all of you with a Mom in your life did something revolving around her and what she wanted to do, not just offering to include her on what you wanted to do. But you still had Saturday with which to do something constructive. Maybe it is work...
Exactly a year ago today there was a massive fire at the largest shopping mall in Warsaw. The Marywilska 44 shopping center was home to over 1.400 different retailers and was almost completely destroyed by the fire, but fortunately no one was hurt. ???? ????????BREAKING: MASSIVE FIRE AT SHOPPING MALL Emergency services are battling a...
President Trump’s announcement yesterday concerning prescription drug prices was pretty interesting, and sure to start a big debate, as Ed noted in his take apart of it earlier this morning. Is this a return to Nixonian price controls? Or is this an effort to enforce equitable trade policy and fairness in American markets? Yes… kinda. Donald...
I don’t have much of an opinion yet about Qatar’s donation of a luxuriously appointed decommissioned 747 to the United States to serve as a temporary Air Force One. The story, as with so many these days, is murky because everybody has an ideological axe to grind and is spinning so furiously that I am...
Marco Velazquez owns a South Side home in Chicago that he was trying sell. One day earlier this month, his realtor went by the home to show it to a potential buyer and discovered a couple had already moved in and claimed they were the rightful owners. Velazquez called the police. “I couldn’t believe it....
Is this a return to Nixonian price controls? Or is this an effort to enforce equitable trade policy and fairness in American markets? Yes… kinda. Donald Trump announced yesterday that he would sign an executive order that would force drug companies to provide equal pricing for prescription medication between their domestic and international markets, part of...
Jonathan Turley’s Op/Ed about the double standards the legal profession has adopted got me to thinking about how law firms have become little more than ideological enforcers of the left whenever politics rears its ugly head. Lawyers and the legal profession in general occupy a special place in liberal democracies like ours, which is why...
