Nothing could better illustrate or be emblematic of the earnest suicidal frivolity of the West than the decision of the first female chief executive of the British insurance and pension company Aviva, which has assets of more than $420 billion under management, that the appointment to all senior ...
I find it deliciously ironic and very satisfying. We suddenly have free speech at American universities, at least while Jewish billionaires are threatening to stop the moola. The presidents of top universities have cried uncle and have pledged that free speech will be for them what money was to ...
The media are trying to pick the GOP nominee for us just like they did with John McCain. (Remember how great that worked out?) Once again, their pick is the whiny warmonger -- this time, Nikki Haley. No wall and guaranteed to lose! What's not to like? (Democrats: Please! Anyone but Gov. Ron ...
As I’ve long pointed out, the most likely fault line where the Democrats’ imposing but fragile Coalition of the Fringes might fracture divides Jews and blacks. Two earlier black moments—the late-’60s Black Power era and the early-’90s Louis Farrakhan fad—both sputtered out when Jews ...
At Christmastime, I tend to gravitate toward lighter topics. Because why befoul such a wondrous season with ugliness?

The Week’s Most Skimming, Brimming, and Tree-Trimming Headlines BAYSQUASH For blacks, swimming in the ocean can be hazardous. So can sitting on the beach, apparently—odd as that may seem, what with their factory-installed sunblock. In 2019, Jerrid Powell was sunbathing on the Santa Monica ...
The late, great humorist P.J. O'Rourke used to quip that everyone wants to save the world, but no one wants to wash the dishes. Well, now that can be said for traditional environmental groups that seem to have lost their way. Green groups are supposed to be about keeping our rivers, lakes and ...
The Fourth Amendment secures our right to be secure against unreasonable searches, right? Not anymore, explains Naomi Brockwell on her popular YouTube channel. In my new video, she explains how tech companies spy on us and then sell our information to the government. But some of us actually find ...
Perhaps I am more sensitive to them than I once was, but it seems to me that hectoring and badgering semi-political public messages (mostly paid for at public expense, of course) are much more prominent than they used to be. This is a West-wide phenomenon, originating from the United ...
