Fox News host Pete Hegseth has decided to put his Masters of Public Policy diploma from Harvard University in an envelope marked “return to sender.” In his new book American Crusade, the highly decorated Iraq and Afghanistan veteran tells his alma mater “Thank you for the ‘education,' but I can no longer support your leftist cause” and encourages others to do the same.He’s not the only one suffering from what I call “educational remorse.” Some time ago, cartoonist Scott Adams of “Dilbert” fame blogged that he would stop donating to UC-Berkeley.At the time, Mr. Adams stated “…I’m ending my support...

For the second time in a week, police forces arrived at Givat Ohavia Monday morning and began evacuating the settlers and destroying the rebuilt buildings, including the Beit Midrash. However, it soon became clear that this was not "ordinary" demolition, but rather the evacuation of the area for the benefit of Arabs from the nearby village of Zurif, who arrived with the forces and began plowing the hill. The residents sharply criticized the action, saying: "For almost a year we have been fighting in the field every day to stop the spread of the village of Zurif towards the settlement...

The content and tone of Colonial Williamsburg’s programming carry the presumption of moral guilt against a reality-based view of sex.Colonial Williamsburg is the world’s largest living museum, and a place visited and loved by many conservatives, traditionalists, homeschoolers, and classical education devotees. Williamsburg is beloved precisely because, for decades, it has faithfully depicted the founding culture of America in a meticulously recreated, and often re-enacted, Revolutionary-era capital. This depiction included America’s undeniably traditional, Western, largely Judeo-Christian roots. But now Williamsburg has gone woke. In doing so, its leadership and staff are displaying conspicuous enmity toward the highly reasoned position held...

Here’s my latest animated “bar chart race” visualization above showing the world’s top ten billionaires in every year from 2000 to 2022 based on data from business magazine Forbes’ annual lists of the World’s Billionaires via Wikipedia for 2000 to 2022 and also via Forbes’ World’s Billionaire List for 2022. The billionaire wealth estimates by Forbes are based on stock prices and exchange rates in mid-March of every year (March 11, 2022 for this year). A few observations: 1. Bill Gates was the world’s wealthiest person in 13 of the years from 2000 to 2020, No. 2 in seven years,...

According to an article in the Federalist, the popular tourist destination of Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia (one of the largest living history museums in the world) has apparently learned nothing from a related disastrous decision by Disney’s woke leadership. The author said, “…it has faithfully depicted the founding culture of America in a meticulously recreated, and often re-enacted, Revolutionary-era capital. This depiction included America’s undeniably traditional, Western, largely Judeo-Christian roots. But now Williamsburg has gone woke. In doing so, its leadership and staff are displaying conspicuous enmity toward the highly reasoned position held by America’s founders -- a position at...

If there’s a topic uppermost on most people’s minds today, it is certainly the surge in inflation over the past year. Soaring prices have affected virtually every person in the country. And Americans say they know who’s responsible: President Biden. Surprisingly, that includes more than half of all Democrats, too. May’s 8.6% annualized inflation rate, the highest in 40 years, shocked financial markets and alarmed consumers and workers alike. As we’ve been reminded over the years, inflation acts as a tax on everyone, lowering standards of living, raising costs across the board, and eroding the very foundations of a productive...

Here’s Andrew Sullivan vs. Christopher Rufo arguing over ‘trans strippers’ vs. British pantomime Posted at 5:53 pm on June 18, 2022 by Brett T. We can’t find it right now, but back when the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill was in the news, we did a post on conservatives arguing both for and against using the term “groomer” to describe those who wanted to teach sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade.

The State Duma has registered a bill repealing the September 6, 1991 resolution recognizing Lithuania's independence. This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the Russian media. The bill was registered by Yevhen Fedorov, a deputy from the United Russia party. He believes that the resolution of the USSR State Council is illegal because it was adopted by an unconstitutional body and in violation of a number of articles of the constitution. In addition, the bill violates the law "On the Procedure for Resolving Issues Related to the Withdrawal of the Union Republic from the USSR", as Lithuania did...

"Our new model for tectonic plates better explains the spatial distribution of 90 per cent of earthquakes and 80 per cent of volcanoes from the past two million years whereas existing models only capture 65 percent of earthquakes...."

WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken told the press on Thursday that he pushes LGBT “rights” with his Saudi Arabian counterpart “invariably, in every conversation.” According to Politico, the statement came during the State Department’s first-ever “briefing for LGBTQI reporters,” with Blinken explaining that he has had “real engagement” with Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al-Saud when talking about protections for the LGBT community in the Middle Eastern nation. Despite ardently pro-LGBT U.S. President Joe Biden saying he was going to treat Saudi Arabia like “the pariah they are,” Blinken said the administration is seeking...

A giant Afro hair pick with a clenched "black power" fist was unveiled in New Orleans on Friday in celebration of Juneteenth – the holiday paying tribute to the last American slaves being freed. However, the eyebrow-raising statue was widely panned online.

The Palestinian Authority’s president, Mahmoud Abbas, wants to “pressure” the American government to do his bidding before Biden visits the Middle East on a trip scheduled for this July. A report on the rich fantasy life of Abbas is here: “Feeding Palestinian delusions,” by Mitchell Bard, JNS.org, June 8, 2022: “Palestinian Leadership Plans to Increase Pressure on U.S. ahead of Biden’s Visit.” This headline in the Daily Alert was illustrative of why Palestinian delusions are mainly responsible for their plight. The article associated with the headline said the Palestinians want to “turn the screws on the White House in order...

The whole world knows that Old Joe Biden is not really the man in charge. Biden himself has made this clear on numerous occasions, with his many oblique references to getting in trouble if he deviated from the instructions he was given. But it has never been fully clear who is running this dumpster fire known as the Biden administration; speculation has run to chief of staff Ron Klain, Barack Obama, and others. Now, however, another name must be added to the mix: that of none other than Hunter Biden. In a Dec. 3, 2018 recording that has just been...

Ukrainian forces attacked drilling platforms in the Black Sea owned by a Crimean oil and gas company, the pro-Russian head of the annexed peninsula said on Monday, giving no details of what weapons were used. Three people were wounded and a search was under way for seven workers from the Chernomorneftegaz energy company, Sergei Askyonov, the Russian-installed head of Crimea, said in a post on Telegram. Crimean officials said work on three drilling platforms had been suspended after the hit, with fires reported. Reuters was unable to immediately verify the reports. Ukraine's military declined to comment. Russian-backed officials seized Chernomorneftegaz...
