Why Is Everyone in Texas Not Dying?

I’m sitting at a bar in Texas, surrounded by maskless people, looking at folks on the streets walking around like life is normal, talking with nice and friendly faces, feeling like things in the world are more-or-less normal.

Man who rammed car into Capitol barricade and charged officers with a knife was follower of Nation of Islam

The Nation of Islam is Louis Farrakhan’s group. They don’t follow orthodox Sunni or Shi’ite Islam, but a strange syncretistic new religion based in part on Islam and in part on bizarre and paranoid racial hate fantasies.

President Psaki

I was taken aback by the positive reaction by many members of the Press who were excited when the Biden Administration announced they were going to resume daily press briefings. Why would they want to listen to a hand-picked flack disgorging half-baked answers about subjects on which they are barely enlightened? Say what you will about […]

Left Overlooks Anti-Semitism When it Contradicts the Narrative

New Census Data Show Homeschooling Tripled During the Pandemic—And One Key Group is Driving the Surge

Orwell, Atheism, and Totalitarianism

The very real controversies of America’s 2021 have conjured up the fictional dystopia of George Orwell’s 1984. The right condemns Big Tech as an incipient Big Brother—surveying citizens and suppressing disapproved thought. The left replies that Donald Trump is the true Orwellian threat. After all, he lies! These spirited disagreements conceal an important consensus. Most Americans […]
