Are you excited by the prospect of your tax dollars funding public schools separating first-graders into groups of "oppressors" and "oppressed"? Despite moves to push back against Critical Race Theory (CRT), it continues to be embraced from kindergarten through college. -The Oregon Department of Education is training its K–12 teachers in "math equity" to combat "the toxic characteristics of white supremacy culture with respect to math." -An elementary school in Philadelphia "forced fifth-grade students to celebrate 'black communism' and simulate a Black Power rally in honor of political radical Angela Davis." -Public schools in Louisville, Kentucky are hosting anti-bias and...

Every year during the Super Bowl, numerous articles pop up online about human trafficking; I’ve even written about it. Of course, some say it is a myth, and some say it does happen. But, here is a hint, the naysayers are wrong. Trafficking is absolutely happening at the Super Bowl. But, it is also happening across the Nation every day of the week, not just this weekend. Anywhere there is a significant event like the Super Bowl, there is a flood of visitors. This flood of visitors brings those willing to pay for sex. So, it is not just the...

Using other people’s money, BlackRock is driving America’s corporations further and further left, as well as wholeheartedly embracing China. BlackRock Investment is a company bigger than most of you can imagine. BlackRock and The Vanguard Group, together, own just about every business in America (not to mention a staggering amount of real property). It turns out that BlackRock’s CEO, a guy named Larry Fink, is another one of those limousine leftists who believes it’s his job to force leftism on America, one corporation at a time. He’s also gung-ho on China and uses the money of ordinary investors to help...

Virgil famously remarked, well over 2,000 years ago: “The descent to hell is easy.” The aura of truth in that phrase persists to this day, as the latest generations of humanity continue to travel down that path. It is hard to believe that after millennia of human endeavor the direction of progress for humanity remains downward. I am neither the first nor the last to think that politics is often the reason for this anomaly – that, for example, the notion of “common ground” in politics is always true and successful “negotiation” is always possible, something that human life does...

It’s Super Study Sunday! Praise God for the Vol. 100 timing — a heavenly confluence sponsored by God’s universe (Salesforce ad) and those He created (Doritos ad). This super day requires super thanks to Townhall and loyal readers of all faiths. A special salute to my mighty band of core commenters whose knowledge of The Word enhances each lesson. Finally, hail to the husband for his often thoughtful theological contributions. Today’s Scripture about Christ’s burial Shroud reflects SignFromGod — the ministry I lead with its board of Shroud experts. Our mission is education about this cloth known as the Shroud...

The not-so-great notion in recent years has been that of the ruling elites of the western nations now heading for political suicide. Remember the song “Goodnight Irene”? It goes: “Sometimes I lives in the country Sometimes I lives in the town Sometimes I haves a great notion To jump into the river an' drown .” The not-so-great notion in recent years, in my view, has been that of the ruling elites of the western nations now heading for political suicide. They seized upon the unknown consequences of the new and fast-spreading Wuhan virus for political gain. They used it to...

I've really gotten to know former President Donald J. Trump over the past six years since he came down that escalator. I was the first to predict he'd be the next president of the United States (at Fox News on the day Trump announced in June of 2015). I was the first to compare him to Ronald Reagan and predict Trump would become the greatest conservative president ever. I was the first to predict he'd create the most jobs in history for black and Hispanic Americans (in a Fox News editorial before he was elected). I was the media personality...

...In an interview with The West Block‘s Mercedes Stephenson, Kenney said doing so simply does not fit with a core tenet of conservative political principles, and that no elected leaders should be negotiating with the participants in a convoy that has been blockading Canadian economic interests.

Congress’s efforts to discourage the sale of harmful or dangerous counterfeit goods, though well-intentioned, miss the mark. In an effort to crack down on such sales, Congressional lawmakers from both parties have set their sights on the wrong target: lawful online marketplaces. For instance, consider the Stopping Harmful Offers on Platforms by Screening Against Fakes in E-commerce Act (SHOP SAFE Act) that’s being debated in the House of Representatives and U.S. Senate. The bill seeks to safeguard consumers by preventing online marketplaces from selling “goods that implicate health and safety.” Formerly a stand-alone bill, the SHOP SAFE Act is now...

Hungarian scientists claim that samples of Antarctic soil sent to a Shanghai firm in 2019 became contaminated with an unknown variant “ Hungarian scientists claim that samples of Antarctic soil sent to a Shanghai firm in 2019 became contaminated with an unknown variant An early version of Covid-19 that appears to have been grown in a laboratory has been discovered in samples from a Chinese biotechnology firm. The finding lends weight to claims that the virus may have started life as a lab experiment that accidentally leaked out. Bioinformatics experts from the University of Veterinary Medicine and Lorand University in...

Most “either/or” questions are designed to make you choose, but sometimes the correct answer is “both.” When dealing with someone like President Joe Biden, it’s not always possible to know the answer to a simple question: is this man stupid, or is he just a liar? There is ample evidence of both, almost always, but the exact tilt of a scale and in which direction it points for the majority is not always clear. As such, you are sometimes left wondering which it is, but there is little doubt it is at least one and usually some combination of both....

PHOENIX — For more than a year, former President Donald Trump has berated Gov. Doug Ducey of Arizona, savaging him for refusing to overturn the state’s presidential results and vowing to oppose him should he run for the Senate this year. In early December, though, Mr. Ducey received a far friendlier message from another former Republican president. At a golf tournament luncheon, George W. Bush encouraged him to run against Senator Mark Kelly, a Democrat, suggesting the Republican Party needs more figures like Mr. Ducey to step forward. “It’s something you have to feel a certain sense of humility about,”...

“We have to be able to have uneasy alliances, as uneasy as they may be in this moment,” Kinzinger told The Associated Press in an interview announcing the strategy last week. Country First is hoping to flood this year’s Republican primary with nontraditional voters, and its website has information about how to change party registration in all 50 states, plus deadlines for registering in time for the primaries. Known as “party raiding,” a 2021 Princeton University Electoral Innovation Lab study of party registration in Utah found most people who became Republican ahead of the state’s latest primary were unaffiliated voters...

Universal masking was a bad thing. One need only look at a video of children hysterical with joy at getting rid of their masks to see how much children suffered from masks. Adults are not dancing in the streets, but there is happiness at finally being able to breathe again. Such reactions make it all the more tragic that there are still people so terrified of COVID that they cannot bear to see the masks go. I feel sorry for anyone who is afraid to face the world without a piece of cloth over his (or her) face. I know...

Medical freedom or autonomy gives people the right to choose with respect to their bodies; physicians the freedom to do what is best for a patient; and bio-scientists the freedom to communicate with, well, everyone. Washington has denied Americans their medical freedom in this COVID crisis, causing economic devastation and needless deaths. Regardless of dire, fear-inducing life-or-death warnings emanating from Washington about COVID, it is simply a new flu. Implying that COVID is an existential threat comparable to the bubonic plague is ludicrous medical hyperbole. COVID is simply a new flu. Risk of COVID death for the general population is...

Top officials at a U.S. federal cybersecurity agency are urging a judge not to authorize at this time the release of a report that analyzes Dominion Voting Systems equipment in Georgia, arguing doing so could assist hackers trying to “undermine election security.” The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) was recently provided an unredacted copy of the report, which was prepared by J. Alex Halderman, director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society. The report discusses “potential vulnerabilities in Dominion ImageCast X ballot marking devices,” or electronic voting devices, according to the government. While CISA supports...

On Friday, Special Counsel John Durham filed with the D.C. Federal District Court a what should have been a boring conflict of interest motion, but it hid a surprise: The Clinton campaign, through Perkins Coie, spied on Trump both before and after he was president. The following is an plain English-language summary of relevant parts of the motion: Michael Sussman was a partner at Law Firm-1 (i.e., Perkins Coie). He met with the FBI General Counsel (i.e., James Baker), and offered data and “white papers” purporting to show that Trump was communicating covertly with a Russia-based bank (i.e., Alfa-Bank). Mueller,...
