Here’s the Boston Globe’s description of the people leaving Massachusetts: Boston Indicators, the research arm of the Boston Foundation, published an analysis exploring trends in so-called domestic outmigration in Massachusetts, or people leaving for elsewhere in the United States. Looking at a two-year average across 2021 and 2022, the analysis found that the people moving…
Whatever one thinks of Avedisian, seeing Alviti in this picture is a reminder that state government incompetence can harm the lives of hundreds of thousands, but it’s the guy who leaves the scene of a fender bender who’s shown the door.
As he’s done for a long time, Mark Steyn zeros in on the truth with panache: There are times, however, when it is necessary not to conceal it. This week’s Trump Trial of the Week is the bazillionth attempt by the ruling party to nail the leader of the opposition on …something, anything, whatever’s to…
John DePetro and Justin Katz check in on politicians’ emphasis on promotions.
As shocking videos emerge of progressive fascism showing its antisemitic face, Nick Freitas’s on-point observation here comes to mind: Americans have been had in a major way (this issue not the least), and I’m not sure there’s any way to turn things around.

Raising doubt about adults capacity in this regard would be a fair response, but for this…
Unfortunately, Rhode Islanders don’t want it. The Ocean State could be a beacon collecting some of tech jobs California is losing, as Joey Politano shows here: Rhode Island is so in the grip of its special interests and ideologues that they’d rather imitate California than create opportunity.
As I suggested in a post this morning, it’s an error to think we can impose requirements on the status quo and not risk any loss of what we have. “Diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) principles are the archetype of this thinking. Admittedly, I don’t know whether a U.S. Navy officer who didn’t notice that…
The featured image of this post compares the original cover of Mountain Music by the band Alabama with the censored version now used for music streaming services. I should specify that I’m not alleging the band and the companies that manage its music were forced to make the change by a government agency, but censorship it…
This flaw of inexperience among the young (and progressives) has become far too pervasive in our society and is particularly notable in Rhode Island. People seem to think that the current state of affairs has been established and will continue indefinitely, so we can shape it like clay to the future we want to see. …
