The left is running scared. The Supreme Court heard arguments in Louisiana v. Callais on Wednesday. It was a re-argument of the case as justices heard oral arguments earlier on March 15. The question is whether Louisiana may herd black voters into two congressional districts and have whites own the four remaining districts. Incredibly, Democrats created this segregation of voters 60 years ago in the Orwellian named Voting Rights Act. The Supreme Court has repeatedly upheld and enforced this separate-but-equal treatment of black and later, Hispanic, voters. That may soon end. The New York Times reported: While state laws restricting...

Even in what you might call the mainstream liberal media, you'd have to look far and wide to find outspoken support for the often-violent, blatantly antisemitic, pro-Hamas student protesters that have plagued American colleges in recent times. But look no further than CNN This Morning and its host, Audie Cornish, formerly of NPR. Last week, reacting to a poll showing a majority of Americans opposing sending more weapons to Israel, and supporting sending humanitarian aid to Gaza, we caught Cornish saying: "There's a whole bunch of students out there who are probably like, hey, thanks for coming around." Cornish was...

"On Bluesky, in the aftermath of the horrific shootings in Utah and Colorado, I condemned America’s acceptance of political violence and criticized its ritualized responses — the hollow, cliched calls for ‘thoughts and prayers’ and ‘this is not who we are’ that normalize gun violence and absolve [W]hite perpetrators especially, while nothing is done to curb deaths," Karen Attiah wrote.
