Editors’ Note: It is amazing to us that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the chief proponent of the “Great Covid Panic”, can give closed-session testimony, reveal his errors in judgement, and so little consequence follows from those admissions. Here is a man who funded the research that set this plague loose on the planet, working hand in […]
Pretending it’s not happening will only make the consequences worse The Biden administration’s continuing effort to conceal or lie about the historic rates of immigration into the country is fast becoming a crisis in its own right—a socially-toxic version of The Emperor’s New Clothes. “It’s not unusual,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre casually remarked […]

At Harvard University in the late 1930s, the mathematician Stanislaw Ulam used to tease the economist and future Nobel Prize winner Paul Samuelson, “Name me one proposition in all of the social sciences which is both true and non-trivial.” It took Samuelson years but, eventually, an answer occurred to him: the Ricardian theory of comparative […]
In our fifth and final chapter, BLM: Washington, DC—The Myth Behind the Movement, we examine the protests in DC and the dawning realization that the aftermath of George Floyd’s death was, at its heart, a missed opportunity.

Sometimes things hide in plain sight. MSNBC personality Rachel Maddow was on to something when she mocked Michigan Republicans for the collapse of their state party apparatus into two rival camps, each claiming to represent the real Michigan Republican Party. She noted there was similar disorganization in several other states, including Florida and Arizona. Maddow’s criticism […]

Ford’s struggles in the EV market are an important reminder of who the real boss is in a free-market economy. It’s not Ford. And it’s certainly not the federal government. Last month Ford announced it was slashing in half its production goal for its most popular electrical vehicle, the F-150 Lightning pickup truck. Bloomberg News reported that the […]

Like most of the mainstream newspapers, the Wall Street Journal regularly runs stories about global warming.

The global climate is always changing, but contrary to the popular narrative, the science of the exact causes is far from settled. Alarmists claim that humans burning fossil fuels for energy will catastrophically ruin the climate, and they demand a “net-zero” future to save the world. What would happen if the climate alarmists succeeded in the United […]

Angry young extremists are not going away or calming down. They are growing up. An announcement for those with their heads still in the sand: there’s something up with the youths these days. They might be more fragile and less cool than the James Dean version of Hollywood legend, but they’re rebels with a cause. The […]
For women who have observed the unhappy zero-sum battle of the sexes, many feel that the modern world, for all its promises, has failed them. Hannah Neeleman, a Utah-based cattle farmer and mother of eight, is perhaps the most popular Instagram “tradwife” — a growing category of social media influencers who reject the not-so-traditional 9-to-5 workforce […]
