The Shameful Supreme Court Protests Threaten The American Order!
There was something ridiculous about the half-a-dozen protestors in "Handmaid's Tale" costumes showing up at Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett's house, with one of them explaining to a reporter that Barrett, as an adoptive mother, doesn't know what it's like to carry a child to term. Never mind that the Justice has given birth five times. ...Read more
We Need To Take The Fentanyl Crisis More Seriously

We Must Defend Free Speech, and Elon Musk!
A year after being named Time magazine's person of the year, Elon Musk is attempting to acquire Twitter.
To listen to Musk's critics, you'd believe it's an act almost on par with Hitler invading Poland not long after being named Time's man of the year in 1938.
A writer for the left-wing website Salon worried that a Musk takeover of Twitter ...Read more
