Commentary On Oct. 6, 1965, the Los Angeles Dodgers faced the Minnesota Twins in the World Series. Excitement was in the air and tensions were running high as the biggest event in Major League Baseball (MLB) was taking place that year. Sandy Koufax, the Dodgers’ ace left-handed pitcher who was widely expected to start Game […]

Commentary It looked like red meat for liberal, Woke media. On March 29, a 65-year-old woman of Filipino descent was punched and kicked in New York City in broad daylight by an attacker who allegedly made anti-Asian statements. The attack, two weeks after spa shootings in Atlanta, Georgia, that killed eight including six women of Asian descent, looked like […]

Commentary In January, a group of scientists started working on clinical trials to cure sickle cell anemia, an inherited disease which causes red blood cells to form in a sickle shape and prevents them from properly carrying oxygen through the body. The scientists will be using CRISPR-Cas9 technology, which is a cutting-edge method of editing […]

Commentary The Supreme Court of Canada ruled March 25 that the federal government is fully within its jurisdiction to impose a carbon tax on provinces, even if the duly elected governments of those provinces oppose the imposition of such a tax. Their rationale? The wisdom of Greta Thunberg. Judges aren’t scientists. They aren’t climate experts. […]

Commentary The latest horrific mass shooting in America, this time roughly 30 miles from my Denver home, happened on Monday. Ten died, and the suspect—a Trump-hating Syrian immigrant, hardly the MAGA hat-clad white man that the media so clearly desired—has been charged with 10 counts of first-degree murder. The Boulder, Colorado, shooting has, predictably, reopened […]

Commentary Ed Bastian made $17 million in 2019 as chief executive officer of Delta Airlines, Georgia’s largest employer. Bastian just blasted Georgia’s new voting law. He thinks it is racist to require the same sort of ID to vote that Delta requires for its passengers to check in. Yet most Americans believe voting is a […]

Freedom of religion has been recently placed by the U.S. at the top place in a hierarchy of human rights. This will change, announced Secretary Blinken. Commentary Reproduced from Bitter Winter: A magazine on religious liberty and human rights in China On March 30, US Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, announced what some saw as a […]

Commentary It’s undeniable that a crackdown on free speech is underway. Cancel culture’s body count continues to grow as more and more celebrities are crucified for not toeing the line of political correctness. Meanwhile, censorship runs rampant on college campuses as safe spaces are established and controversial speakers are shouted down. While these public tales […]

Commentary While Australians are worried about rising unemployment and exorbitant electricity bills, the government is concerned about “gender balance.” Prime Minister Scott Morrison says he is deeply committed to boosting female representation in the Liberal Party, and is pushing for structural reforms to his party to improve such representation in Parliament. First of all, the […]

In the year of my birth, 75 per cent of men smoked, as did 50 per cent of women. In films, you could tell a true gentleman by the assiduity and grace with which he withdrew his cigarette lighter from his pocket and lit the cigarette of the woman to whom he was talking or […]

Commentary On Monday, Justice Clarence Thomas announced that the Supreme Court soon will have to put an end to big tech tyranny. He cited the “glaring” problem of social media platforms like Facebook and Google wielding unlimited power to censor users whose views they don’t like. These tech giants, he argued, ought to be regulated […]

Commentary I’m beginning to think H. L. Mencken’s famous apothegm—“When somebody says it’s not about the money, it’s about the money”—would make a good Eleventh Commandment or at least something to bear in mind on almost any occasion. Wokeness—no matter what “justice” veneer you put on it—is about the money. It’s about taking the money […]

Commentary To reach herd immunity for COVID-19, according to the National Institutes for Health (NIH), the United States needs to reach an estimated 80 percent to 85 percent immunity level. As things stand, meeting that goal through vaccination will fail because, unlike Democrats who are being vaccinated in overwhelming numbers, almost half of Republicans–44 percent, […]

Commentary Given the Left’s desire to ban some of the works of Dr. Seuss, it is not surprising that its members also seem intent on discounting the lessons of another classic children’s story. In the Aesop’s fable, “The Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs,” a farmer has a goose that lays a golden egg every day. […]

Commentary Democrats have solidified their effort to act as an Orwellian Ministry of Truth with the passage of Speaker Pelosi’s H.R. 1085 in the House of Representatives. This bill rewrites the historical facts from Jan. 6 under the guise of “honoring” the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) who bravely protect Congress. Pelosi’s goal, of course, isn’t […]

Commentary Within the first hour of Joe Biden’s presidency, the commander in chief fired a little-known figure running an agency most Americans have likely never heard of. Yet that firing was symbolically and substantively significant. Its significance has only grown two months into an administration that has conferred legitimacy on the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) […]

Commentary It is now clear that as the avalanche of wokeness and national self-hate that has crashed over the restraining walls of the American mythos, one pillar of traditional American democracy after another has fallen. The whole process was so sudden and has come on so unexpectedly that it is still difficult to appreciate the […]

Commentary This is the third in a series of essays defending our Constitution against unfair accusations from so-called “progressives.” The first essay rebutted the charge that the Constitution discriminated against women. The second corrected the claim that the three-fifths compromise was motivated by racism. This essay responds to incessant efforts to link the Constitution with […]

The headline in the on-line edition of The New York Times on March 16 instantly caught my eye: “Florida Finds Election Fraud in High School Homecoming Votes.” Ah ha! I thought. So that’s where the Times’s crack team of investigative reporters looking into election fraud have been for the last five months: J.M. Tate High […]

Political party conventions can be a great mechanism for party renewal and invigoration. These gatherings can unite the party faithful and build momentum. With a federal election looming while national support for his party continues to dwindle, Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) Leader Erin O’Toole desperately needed a breakthrough in the 2021 convention. Instead of […]
