Abortion
Charlie Kirk has an interesting business model. He goes where young adults congregate (presumably college campuses), sets up a booth, and has debates with whoever approaches his microphone. Then he posts the videos for clicks and (again, presumably) collects advertising revenue. In this video, he stumps a young woman on the issue of abortion. Kirk’s…
While steadfastly refusing to cite any limits on how late into a pregnancy non-emergency abortions should be allowed, Kamala Harris has claimed that her campaign promise “to put back the protections that are in Roe v. Wade into law” would not legalize abortion until the moment of birth. But if Roe were to be “codified”…
On the list of people for whom the exposure of social media has been a source of disappointing exposure, novelist Stephen King has got to be near the top.

They therefore craft policies and advance cultural changes whose outcomes they cannot measure because of the blind spot with which they began.…
We’re probably all feeling the increasing (let’s say) incoherence of things over the past decade or more, but I’ve found it clarifying. Distinctions and beliefs have reached cartoonish levels, which teaches lessons that may continue to apply in subtler degree when (if) life moves back toward sanity.

John DePetro and Justin Katz discuss the madness permeating our state.
This incident occurred the week before Christmas, but I still can’t believe it’s real: A charity volunteer has been arrested and charged on four counts after she told the police she “might” be praying silently, when questioned as to why she was standing on a public street near an abortion facility. Police approached Isabel Vaughan-Spruce…
