<p>America’s recent race wars have brought the dead to life. In Ava DuVernay’s Selma, Martin Luther King once again bestrode Alabama streets, sparking a campaign for racial equality that’s never really ended. In Spike Lee’s BlacKkKlansman, the spectre of the Ku Klux Klan re-emerged in 1970s Colorado. And now comes Judas & the Black Messiah, which unearths one of the key figures of the Black Panther era.</p>

Our governing system doesn't serve its intended purpose, to secure the blessings of liberty. A casual read of the Constitution reveals our government’s wholesale departure from it. Congress gaffs off or assigns its duties to craft legislation, determine spending, ratify treaties, oversee the executive branch, and regulate the judicial branch. Not being content with rewriting statutes, scotus increasingly elevates itself above God; its Obergefell v. Hodges ruling is only the latest outrage among many. Executive branch agencies reflect Leftist priorities and not congressional statutes. In response, there is a small but growing minority of Americans who believe revolution is our...

Scientists believe that uveitis, an inflammation of the tissue located just below the outer surface of the eyeball, produces 10 to 15 percent of all cases of blindness in the United States, and causes even higher rates of blindness globally. The inflammation is normally treated with antibiotics or steroid eye drops. In a paper appearing in the May issue of the journal Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, however,...

This bill could be the key to securing the southern border. Texas state Rep. Bryan Slaton filed a bill in the Texas House of Representatives on March 4 aimed at creating a fund to pay for “border security enhancement projects.” As an Op-Ed from The Blaze’s Daniel Horowitz explained, it could even lead to the construction of the border wall in certain states. Slaton’s bill would use state funds to complete the border wall in Texas and would require the governor to seek reimbursement from the federal government. In short, if the bill passes in the Texas legislature, the state...

He slid his hand up her cream-colored blouse, she said, and used his knee to part her bare legs before reaching under her skirt and penetrating her with his fingers. It happened all at once, she said. “He’s talking to me and his hands are everywhere and everything is happening very quickly,” she recalled. He was kissing me and he said in a low tone, “Do you want to go somewhere else?” Reade said she pulled away and Mr. Biden stopped. She stated that...

Belkin Laser’s Eagle device delivers healing laser beams quickly and without touching the patient; any ophthalmologist can use it.One hundred and forty million people suffer from glaucoma, a degenerative eye disease that can lead to blindness.

As congressional Democrats from New York called en masse for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to resign amid mounting sexual harassment claims, White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Friday stuck to a wait-and-see approach. Psaki said that although President Biden supports each of the Democratic governor’s six accusers having the right “to tell her story,” the White House would await the results of a review led by New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office. “The president believes that every woman who’s come forward — there have now been six, I believe, who have come forward — deserves to have her voice...
