Americans must force the government back into its constitutional cage. One of the most important lessons in life is straightforward: everything in moderation. If you eat too much, you’ll get fat. If you drink too much, you’ll lose your wits. If you play too much, no one will take you seriously. Temperance is a remarkably sound philosophy for living well. Living with an eye toward moderation is about more than restraining from vice. Experience teaches that thoughtless excess undermines otherwise healthy activities. Reading books without taking the time to consider the meaning of their words can make a person educated...

Florida TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A second disturbance has popped up in the Atlantic as Florida braces for Tropical Storm Debby. The disturbance has a 10% chance of development over the next 48 hours and a 20% chance within the next seven days. The National Hurricane Center said the tropical wave is several hundred miles east of the Windward Islands and is moving quickly westward at around 20 mph. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Debby is currently westward of Florida and is expected to strengthen into a Category 1 hurricane as it approaches the Big Bend. Officials said the system is expected...

The Daily Mail broke the story that Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff knocked up his daughter’s nanny in the course of his first marriage. Relevant facts have yet to be filled in, but the New York Post has already followed up with this story. It is not clear whether the pregnancy ended with abortion, miscarriage, or the birth of a child. The Daily Mail vaguely reports only that nanny Najen Naylor “did not keep the child.” The facts of need to be fleshed out. Emhoff himself has only acknowledged “tough times” in a statement to CNN: “During my first marriage, Kerstin...

Signs point to a second Squad defeat in next Tuesday’s Missouri primary. Latest polling shows Wesley Bell leading embattled left-wing Rep. Cori Bush By Matthew Kassel, August 2, 2024 By Matthew Kassel, August 2, 2024Cori Bush faces backlash for using ‘racist slur’ against Donald Trump; ‘She's a crook and danger to US'. Mar 13, 2024. SEE IT: Cori Bush speaks out and uses racist slurs, calling former President Trump: “White Supremacist in Chief" during the congressional hearing. This is not been proven, and she could be liable. I think Trump should sue her. Yet she forgets about Biden saying: "If...

British Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer has vowed that police have his full support in taking on “extremists” as anti-mass migration protests and riots have broken out across the United Kingdom following the mass stabbing at a children’s dance party in Southport earlier this week. Facing a full-blown crisis less than one month into office, recently elected leftist Prime Minister Starmer gathered top cabinet ministers on Saturday as unrest erupted in dozens of towns and cities throughout the UK, in many cases in typical Labour Party strongholds in the north of England, in response to the slaying of three young...

The Democrats think they will pitch a fast one, less than 100 days before the election, coronating a radical, not very smart candidate as a substitute for a clearly demented president. They plan to avoid any unscripted remarks by her and any interviews or debates. The wisdom of keeping her mouth shut is evident. How long can they hide the Obama-Kerry-Harris close ties with the nuclear-weapon-seeking, terrorist-supporting Islamists of Iran who want nothing more than to destroy America? How long can the press allow Harris to airbrush her very radical political record? HarrisFollowing Biden’s disastrous failure in the CNN-sponsored debate...

A senior US official was cited by CNN as saying the Russian aims to arm the Houthis were "antithetical to the goals we are pursuing." Russia stopped at the last minute a shipment of missiles and other military equipment it planned to deliver to the Houthis last month after pressure from the United States and Saudi Arabia not to do so, numerous sources told CNN on Friday. A senior US official was cited by CNN as saying the Russian aims to arm the Houthis were "antithetical to the goals we are pursuing" in achieving peace between the Houthis and Saudi...

The MiG-35, also known as the “Fulcrum-F,” is a modernized version of the MiG-29 designed as a “4++ generation” fighter. First flown in 2016 and entering service in 2019, it features upgrades like an AESA radar, reduced radar signature, improved engines, and the ability to serve as a refueling tanker. Despite these enhancements, the MiG-35 has struggled to find success, both domestically and internationally.

Jack Smith’s January 6 case against President Trump is now back with Judge Tanya Chutkan following the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity ruling. The Supreme Court last month ruled 6-3 that Trump has absolute immunity for his core Constitutional powers. Former presidents are entitled to at least a presumption of immunity for their official acts, according to the Supreme Court. The case was sent back to the DC Appellate Court after the Supreme Court issued a ruling on presidential immunity. Judge Tanya Chutkan issued a highly unusual Saturday order and set a hearing for August 16. DC Obama Judge Tanya Chutkan,...

This is a true story. It was reduced in length to a “thumbnail size” some time ago as an exercise in brevity. Such extreme reduction of a story without blurring its essential character was, I think, good practice in limiting my usual writing to indispensable details, words and phrases. I chose this story, first for its first-hand look at what was open to one living in New York City before 1960, and second for its portrayal of an American who survived most of the 20th century and continues to write about it. ========== A boy from Brooklyn, born when Frankenstein...

US President Joe Biden on Saturday expressed hope Iran would stand down despite its threat to avenge the elimination of Hamas’ political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, Reuters reported. Iran and Hamas have blamed Israel for Haniyeh’s killing, though Israel has not claimed or denied responsibility. They, together with Hezbollah, have vowed revenge for both Haniyeh’s elimination as well as for the elimination of senior Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr. Asked by reporters whether Iran would stand down, Biden said in response, "I hope so. I don't know." On Friday, the Pentagon announced it would move a fighter jet squadron to...
