TikTok spent days directing its users to call their Members of Congress but that effort seems to have failed, at least so far. Today a bill that would force the Chinese owner of TikTok to either sell it or face a ban in the US passed the House with strong bipartisan support. Republican leaders fast-tracked […]
Iran sponsors Hamas, Hezbollah, the Huthis, and all those militias that have been attacking US troops in the Middle East. Its slogan is “Death to America,” and its leaders go to great lengths to turn this aspiration into concrete reality. This reality isn’t refuted or even challenged by the Biden Administration. Secretary of State Anthony […]
Back in December, the Pentagon announced that they had burned through all of the money designated to supply military aid to Ukraine, so future shipments would have to wait until Congress appropriated more funds. That hasn’t happened because the House GOP is insisting that Joe Biden fix our borders before we blow even more cash […]
Well, someone’s lying. Late yesterday, news outlets around the world reported that Hamas had agreed to a “modified” version of the US proposal for a temporary pause in fighting to exchange hostages for prisoners and allow aid into Gaza. As I warned at the time, “modified” could mean a lot of things, even if the source […]
The folks at the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) are pressuring First Lady Jill Biden to make a change in the annual White House Easter Egg Roll. PETA wants the White House to discontinue using chicken eggs. As I was reading about this, I felt some deja vu-ish vibes. Did I write […]
I bash the elites all the time and truly believe they deserve far more disdain than I or anyone else can give them. But I don’t think for a moment that any society more complex than a small village can actually successfully function without an elite of some kind or another, and by that I […]
Last night, Ed posed the question of whether or not Donald Trump would seal the deal and secure enough delegates for the GOP nomination in Tuesday’s contests. (If you missed any of the results you can review the final tallies at that link.) I doubt many people were holding their breath in suspense. The polls […]
It’s South By Southwest Conference (SXSW) time in Austin, Texas. It is an annual event that is “a global event for digital creatives to explore cutting-edge ideas, discover new interests, and network with professionals.” The conference dates this year are March 8-15. Austin is a big live music city and SXSW brings in musicians from all […]
Great Britain has been edging toward this moment for months, but the government has made it official: children will no longer be prescribed puberty blockers as a treatment for gender dysphoria. Period. End of story. Not gonna happen. This is perhaps the most dramatic about-face in European medical treatments of so-called “transgender” children, as until […]
It’s a good thing President Joe Biden wasn’t strapped to a polygraph while giving his State of the Union speech on Thursday, because his results would have come back about as clean as O.J. Simpson’s. That was especially true when he recited a lot of tall tales — and some whoppers […]
