I don’t want to read too much into a few seconds of video, but something is chilling about progressive Democrat Representative Brandon Potter’s face as Meara began to speak in favor of Republican Representative Patricia Morgan’s bill to prevent transgender-related mutilation of children: His facial expression is not just of hatred. It’s cold, as if…
That means most of us have to be servants to somebody else. That’s why a political party that still pretends it’s “for the little guy” is relentlessly targeting “little guys” who work for themselves. This video from John Stossel is worth watching: If you’re independent, you’re difficult to manage. If top-down government can pressure top-down…
For those of us who’ve been mystified by economic news, E.J. Antoni’s summary of results from the March employment report is worth a read. The key confusion is that “the headline numbers once again look good.” Yet, all the jobs are part time, with Americans replacing their full-time jobs with multiple part-time ones to make…
This seems kind of like an important story, but despite some weeks, I’ve seen nothing on it elsewhere: The problem with our current media situation is that, whether Callahan’s assessment about sanctuary state policies is fair or not, we know for a certainty that we’ll only ever hear that it is not fair from the…
A point I made yesterday in an essay on Dust in the Light was that we communicate with God in where we choose to direct our attention, and one of the ways in which we make that choice is by how we act. Taking an action is like moving your position on the landscape; your observations…

Roger Kimball has in mind, here, the attacks on Donald Trump: The disappointing thing is how many Americans just don’t care, because the Democrats have whipped them into a frenzy of hatred. We are fortunate, indeed, to have basic rights protected in our fundamental laws, but no piece of paper can withstand the desire of…
Yes, we’ve reached the point that the place to get real, non-partisan journalism is on a social media platform from such people as “Mel,” whose X address is Villgecrazylady. For example: The thread that follows explains how former Congressman Adam Kinzinger — a darling of the J6-investigation crowd — turned campaign donations into usable funds. …
I’m still puzzled by the presence of the leader of the Rhode Island Foundation in this image: Is the foundation involved with this project, was this just a bunch of buddies hanging out for a photo op, or is there really no space at all between state government, federal government, and the non-profit sector —…
To be honest, I feel for Gus Schumacher, the young man whom many conservatives mocked when he was the target of pointed questioning from Republican Senator John Kennedy: Yes, it’s telling that an ostensible witness for greater government control as a response to “climate change” knows very little about the science, but we’ve raised several…
