The article is published in The Prickly Pear to highlight the increasingly incompetent Biden foreign policy and the consequences of American weakness that has […]
Over the course of my career at three magazines, two newspapers, a financial wire, and my present job as an investigative reporter, I have taken a particular interest in media criticism. It’s not remotely an exaggeration to say that through an assortment of columns, editorials, magazine features, and books, I have written several hundred thousand […]

Editors’ Note: As we read this, we could not help but think about how detached from reality the Left and the Democrats have truly become. We are really dealing with a kind of secular religious dogmatism of an extreme variety. It is obvious Putin could care less about “emissions”, and the global warming nut cases in […]
“One small thing to be thankful for is that [Donald Trump] is not in the White House as the Ukraine crisis unfolds. He’d side with Russia,” tweeted Francis Fukuyama, author of “The End of History and the Last Man.” The headline on Eugene Robinson’s Washington Post opinion column reads, “With Biden standing firm, Putin must […]

Conservative author, venture capitalist, and U.S. Senate candidate from Ohio J.D. Vance said in a statement today that the U.S. “spent $6 billion on a failed Ukrainian army” and “foolishly pressured” Ukraine to give up its nuclear weapons in the 1990s, which killed any major leverage it might have had against Russian aggression. Vance also […]
If the Arizona Republicans get their way, the government and schools in the state will no longer have the power to require children to wear a face-covering without the express consent of their parent or guardian.

The political hostility of the United States today is directed at no one more than America’s European-descended whites—the group whose ancestors are largely responsible for settling, building, and defending this country.

As an economist, my job is not to help you make health decisions about Covid vaccines. Your health history, age, subjective evaluation of risk, and many other factors make recommendations from me meaningless. I can, however, increase your awareness of distortions that lead to poor decision-making. I’m not talking about the most apparent distortion—mandates. Mandates […]
