About 100 years ago, the great Calvin Coolidge famously announced that “the business of America is business” (or words to that effect). Of course, nowadays, we’d have to say, “the business of America is business, unless you lose, then you can manipulate the government to get what you want.” Late last year, Netflix announced its intent to buy Warner Bros. for $83 billion, which would gain them the Hollywood mainstay’s library of intellectual properties ranging from Batman and Harry Potter to CNN and Discovery. When I opined about this here a few months ago,

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Monday called some of the principal Democrats who have recently been inciting their mindless minions to violence against President Donald Trump and his supporters, and it was a beautiful thing to see. But Leavitt likely knows that the hate-filled left is unlikely to be chastened, and even less likely to change its ways. For leftists, political power is their religion. Murdering their foes in pursuit of that power is no sin; it’s more like a sacrament. (Snip) "And so many mentally perturbed individuals are led to believe these words are true, and then are inspired to act on it.”

In the coming months, millions of Americans will gather with their loved ones to celebrate the semiquincentennial anniversary of the United States. Given the generally abysmal state of American history education, not to mention the media’s and academia’s relentless smearing of the Founding, one wonders just how many Americans will be able to articulate what exactly the Fourth of July is commemorating. For those in need of a lucid and succinct refresher on the founding principles of the country, Matthew Spalding has recently published an excellent and timely primer on the Declaration of Independence, The Making of the American Mind.

Security guards are being told not to stop shoplifters over health and safety fears despite a crime wave sweeping the country. The Telegraph has the story. Union bosses are telling their members to “watch, report and be an expert witness for police”, but are explicitly ordering them not to intervene against theft. The Security Industry Federation (SIF) has told its members, “do not put yourselves in harm’s way for those who may not support you afterwards”. The union’s General Secretary Daniel Garnham said that while this diktat went “against the instincts and principles of many good security professionals… someone else’s stock is not more important than your safety, your career or your licence”.

Europe is economically dependent on the United States, not on Russia. Russia, for its part, mainly sold hydrocarbons such as oil and gas — 85% of its oil exports to the EU before 2022 — and bought almost nothing from Europe. Europeans have therefore been in a position of unilateral dependence -- not supposed "interdependence." Most European states possess no aircraft carriers, no missile defense, and no supply fleet. Europe seems only to have funds for endless welfare benefits handed out to migrants who seem committed to transforming Europe into the extremist, third-world countries that they left.

Dr. David M. Morens, a former top adviser to Dr. Anthony Fauci, was arrested and charged Tuesday with conspiracy and destruction of federal records in one of the first cases to allege a cover-up in the COVID-19 pandemic. The charges – brought by the FBI, Justice Department and the U.S. Health and Human Services inspector general – allege the former senior scientific adviser at the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which Fauci led for 38 years, committed conspiracy against the United States; destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations; concealment, removal or mutilation of records; and aiding and abetting.

It was about 2 A.M. on a chilly night in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. While on radio car patrol, my partner and I were notified that an anonymous caller had heard unusual sounds at a hardware store that had been closed for several hours. Since we couldn’t find a break in front, we checked the hallway of the building next door, finding a window that accessed the rear yard. I climbed onto a narrow ledge and inched my way toward the grimy-looking rear window of the store.

A pro-illegal immigrant group received more than $8.7 million from taxpayers in the year that it helped spark destructive protests, but despite outcry and probes from Washington, it faces no consequences. The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) reported the government grants in its latest tax filing covering July 2024 through June 2025, the month that Los Angeles, California, was set ablaze by anti-deportation rioters. The chaos kicked off in June 2025 after CHIRLA created an anti-ICE network that led to a union leader’s arrest and encouraged supporters to arrive at a federal building for a rally that turned violent,

Once again, the left has attempted to assassinate President Trump and/or those in his Cabinet. But why do these instances of violence continue to occur? Pretty simple: The left has abandoned reason and debate. I came about my “worldview” over a forty- to fifty-year period by engaging smart (and some not so smart) people, and by challenging my notions on particular important subjects; economics, religion, culture, foreign affairs, and more.

The Daily Signal has obtained plans from a coalition of House Democrats showing it will push legislation to raise the federal minimum wage to $25 an hour and “tax the rich” in an effort to strip “power and privilege” from “the wealthy and well‑connected” to advance “racial justice.” Reps.

Election Day 2025 was a broad disaster for Republicans. Everyone could see that. New Jersey stayed blue, but Virginia went back to being blue at the state level, and the Virginia Democrat party took greater dominance over the Old Dominion’s state legislature. Nationally, Republicans could not avoid the backlash in voter turnout, since the common pattern is that the party out of power rebounds in the Virginia and New Jersey elections the year after the Presidential election. However, Democrats didn’t just rebound, they superabounded, especially in Virginia. It didn’t have to end this way.

Allen appeared before a (lower-level) magistrate judge today on a criminal complaint (which can be read here). He was ordered detained pending a full detention hearing on Thursday.

The Department of Justice indicted a former senior adviser to Dr. Anthony Fauci on Tuesday for allegedly concealing records amid probes into the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic. David Morens, 78, has been charged with conspiracy against the United States; destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations; concealment, removal, or mutilation of records; and aiding and abetting. The indictment, unsealed Monday in Maryland federal court, also lists two unnamed co-conspirators who “concealed, removed, destroyed and caused the concealment, and removal of federal records to evade FOIA [Freedom of Information Act] and FRA [Federal Records Act].” Morens, who served as a senior advisor to Fauci from 2006 to 2022,

Revelations that the leftist Southern Poverty Law Center had been funding “hard right” extremist groups raise an important question beyond whether or not it was defrauding donors.

We’re still learning what it is, exactly, that the SPLC has been up to, but what we’ve learned so far is pretty damning.

Democrat voters would understandably like to be involved in selecting their presidential nominee, and some found themselves frustrated that they didn’t get a chance to do it in 2024. For example, actor Jerry O’Connell visited Bill Maher’s show recently to reveal that his family got angry and physical with him when he suggested the unthinkable in Democrat orthodoxy about the 2024 presidential campaign. “There was no planning,” he told his family, continuing to say that “this [defeat] is what they get. There should have been a primary.” He naively claims that the lack of a primary to allow Democrat voter influence reflects a lack of planning.
