While most Americans were at home prepping for the big day, nine Supreme Court justices were still at the office Wednesday night, cooking up something else: a rebuke of New York City’s COVID restrictions. In her coming out party, new Justice Amy Coney Barrett made her presence felt — casting the tie-breaking vote that only […]
Barack Obama may have written a book called The Promised Land, but if his latest comments are any indication, he won’t be leading the Democratic Party there any time soon. In trying to explain how Donald Trump could have captured such a big slice of the Hispanic vote, the former president managed to reaffirm to […]
“Smaller companies don’t have the resources” to “prevent the next Trump situation,” a Big Tech exec said to an undercover reporter last summer. Google, Twitter, and Facebook, she bragged, do. One year, thousands of censored posts, and a presidential election later, Americans are starting to understand just how far Big Tech will go to manipulate […]
Video streaming giant Netflix is drawing criticism once again, this time for hosting and promoting the film “Cuties,” which sexualizes 11-year-old girls. Having failed to learn its lesson after the trailer generated outrage last month, Netflix has gone ahead and made the movie available on its platform, despite many critics describing it as “child pornography.” […]
July 8, 2020 It’s been called the program for sinners and saints, or, Senator James Lankford (R-Okla.) joked, “Baptists and bars.” With loans fanning out to everyone from jellybean companies to dating apps, Congress’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) has been an equal opportunity lifeline for businesses crushed under the weight of the virus.

Keira Bell can never get her childhood back. And her body, a scarred and mangled reminder, tells her every day. “I am living in a world where I don’t fit in as male or as female. I am stuck between two sexes.” Now 23, she’s dedicated her life to stop teenagers from making the same […]
It didn’t look like recess. It looked like an elementary school jail. Instead of carefree children running around outside, the images from French journalists are almost tragic: little boys and girls, each sitting glumly in their own chalk-outlined box. To some parents, it was a sobering picture of what public education might look like in […]
April 27, 2020 For the families lucky enough, there are still cemetery plots. But even grieving is different now, one Iranian says soberly. Not even flowers are allowed on the rows of fresh dirt. “People are dying left and right here,” a medic shook her head. “It’s the same way in all of our hospitals.” […]
In the real world, when someone doesn’t do their job, you fire them. So when the World Health Organization (WHO), whose job it is to “guard the public health,” fails, it’s time to take a long hard look at the billions of dollars America is paying them. It’s their job to sound the alarm on […]
The world will see them as a number. To everyone else, they were high school baseball coaches, single moms, nurses, priests, songwriters, teachers, and grandparents. They were veterans of World War II and rabbis who survived the Holocaust. They beat breast cancer, lung cancer, poverty, and old age. But they could not beat this. Almost […]
