Her ...Read more

Did you know that the SAT is racist?

During Woke I, as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez now calls it, "antiracists" said the SAT's creators "were avowed eugenicists."

What they're really celebrating is putting out a product that resides solidly inside a liberal bubble. They are the...Read more

ERIE, Pennsylvania -- Long before the furthest-left corner of the Commonwealth began welcoming millions of sunbathers, Presque Isle State Park served as a critical shield for a young nation.

During the War of 1812, the peninsula's natural, 5.8-square-mile harbor provided the perfect sanctuary. Master mariner Daniel Dobbins recognized that a ...Read more

It was only a few years ago when the climate change alarms and green energy fad were all the rage at the White House and corporate board rooms. Former President Joe Biden's policies were all tilted to ending fossil fuels, and many of America's biggest corporations embraced the concept of net-zero fossil fuels. This was the movement during the ...Read more

Even famous and successful women can't avoid the reality of trade-offs.

Earlier this month, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez announced on Instagram that she is freezing her eggs. The 36-year-old congresswoman even gave herself an injection on camera. AOC told her followers that she would have to give herself another round of shots before her ...Read more

More than any political cycle in memory, the 2026 primary campaign season has been marked by frequent, and often hysterical, condemnations of the influence of the so-called "Israel lobby."

After the conspiratorial anti-Trump gadfly Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) lost his Republican congressional primary in northern Kentucky in May, he quipped ...Read more

Hey, remember that unhinged cultural revolution we launched a few years back? That was insane -- amirite?

Advocates for transgenderism consistently present opposition to their agenda as not just incorrect but dangerous.

We're used to the Trevor Project folks asserting that resisting someone's urge to identify as the opposite of their actual biology creates a risk of suicide. Sadly for them, last December, ACLU lawyer Chase Strangio had to admit ...Read more

It's worth poking around the entrails of the returns for the agonizingly close and, given the pre-primary polls, surprising results of recent Democratic primaries in the key swing Midwestern states of Michigan and Wisconsin, with a side look at Minnesota.

There is a question increasingly worth asking: Why do some of America's most privileged young people seem to have become among its harshest critics, not merely challenging policies but speaking as though America itself is fundamentally corrupt, oppressive or unworthy of their loyalty?

This is certainly not true of every young white American. ...Read more

Since March, America has been running an accidental experiment and glimpsing what the country might look like without one of its dumbest statutes. The results are in, and they embarrass a century's worth of U.S. lawmakers and defenders.

The statute is the Jones Act, passed in 1920 to rebuild and protect the U.S. merchant marine fleet after ...Read more
