There was a really different sort of escalation at UCLA last night. Instead of police vs. protesters, this was two angry groups skirmishing with one another on the campus for several hours before police finally arrived. There’s a backstory here which explains why things escalated. It started with word circulating on campus that members of […]
I think I have adequately demonstrated my hostility to antisemitism. If not, you should know I despise them, and am disgusted by the rise of antisemitism everywhere, but especially on college campuses. But, man, this is dumb. “It’s also easy to see how the use of ‘monitors’ for hateful speech could be expanded to cover […]
This morning, Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R) cocked the trigger of the metaphorical pistol that she’s had pointed at the head of her own party all year. She announced with great drama and flair that she would “absolutely” be triggering a motion to vacate against Speaker Mike Johnson next week. This pointless maneuver comes […]
Less than three weeks ago, Iran launched its first-ever direct attack on Israel from its own territory. The mullahs fired 30 cruise missiles, 120 ballistic missiles, and 170 drones in a massive attack in an escalating series of retaliations for Iran’s role in supporting Hamas and Hezbollah operations against Israel.

There must be a protest manual that says tents are a vital part of any occupation because in a new “occupation” at Fordham University in New York the students are setting up tents. Tents. Inside. NOW – Fordham University students in NYC erect a green tent city occupying the Lincoln Center, to create a “Gaza […]
Today’s title question was both asked and answered yesterday by our friend Jim Geraghty at National Review. The title of his piece was, “Germany’s not the reliable NATO ally Joe Biden makes it out to be.” Well, that seems fairly straightforward, but what’s the reasoning behind that conclusion? We work pretty closely with Germany in […]
Bad news for the mainstream media, it seems — the secularization of the Catholic Church has hit reverse. Or so the Associated Press fulminates in an amusing report about the trend toward catechesis in the American Catholic Church and parishioners who, y’know, actually believe this stuff. No, seriously … that’s the story. The liberal vanguard […]
…A Democrat Congresscritter starts talking about returning to Trump-era immigration policies. On National Public Radio. ON NPR! Man, that has to sting. How bad are the polls looking, Congresswoman?
