For the last two weeks, the Protection Racket Media has salivated over the “civil war” in MAGAworld over Donald Trump’s handling of the Iran-Israel war. Media orgs have made any debate among Republicans over the options into a sign that Trump’s support would soon collapse, and that his political leverage would dissipate with it. We...
So much for signals. Rather than use diplomatic niceties, Donald Trump opted for the blunt approach today. Just a few hours after warning Iran that time was running out to give up its nuclear weapons program and sites, Trump demanded a complete capitulation: Â Worth noting: It’s unusual to demand an unconditional surrender from a...
“Senator Betterman strikes again,” radio host Tony Kinnett quipped. Hey, there are worse nicknames, and this one applies well. John Fetterman had remained silent during the unfolding chaos in Los Angeles, which still represented something of an improvement over his fellow Democrats. We’ll get to those examples shortly, but Fetterman had finally seen enough by...
Music superstars J Balvin, Doja Cat and Tems will perform a half-time show at the Club World Cup final in New Jersey next month, as football follows the example of the Super Bowl. Colombian singer Balvin, US rapper Doja Cat and Nigerian star Tems will cram their performances into the 15-minute half-time break. The line-up...
Can Donald Trump convince Iran to stop pursuing nuclear weapons? In his first media appearance on this week’s Middle East tour, Trump offered an olive branch — if Iran is truly interested in peace and security for the region. He offered Tehran “a new and better path” by dismantling its enrichment systems and ending its...
Harvard can’t claim they weren’t warned. Education Secretary Linda McMahon sent a letter a week ago to Harvard president Alan Garber warning him to start complying with the administration’s interpretation of the Civil Rights Act and two Supreme Court decisions on discrimination. Harvard ignored the letter until yesterday, when Garber tried sweet-talking McMahon out of...
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...
Has the tide turned against the Left — and toward reality? Especially when it comes to biological reality rather than the feelz? Today’s big news from the Supreme Court suggests that momentum is building, at least in the use of executive authority to define policy. Without comment — or much, anyway — the court reinstated the...
Chrissie Mayr still isn’t backing down — not from hecklers, not from the mainstream media, and certainly not from the woke establishment that wants to suppress laughs in favor of “regime comedy” and clapter. Two years ago, they all came after Mayr. First, she did an extemporaneous riff on Dylan Mulvaney that drew protests by...
Great news, as far as it goes. And that’s the question that will endear the Trump administration to federal judges around the country when Russ Vought unleashes this new legal strategy. Or perhaps more accurately, it will make trial lawyers in the regulatory sphere wealthy … as far as this goes. The New York Times...
