A handful of cowardly Republican senators anonymously whined to Jewish Insider about Vice President J.D. Vance’s America First foreign policy viewpoints, coughing up a dying gasp of the war-obsessed GOP establishment.
The neocon senators glommed onto Vance’s skepticism of immediately taking military action against the Houthis in Yemen disrupting trade in the Suez Canal, despite saying he was “willing” to support it and then ultimately did. Vance expressed concern that the action would be difficult to justify to the American public, which elected him and President Donald Trump in part to stop endless wars and at least justify military action in terms of American interests.

An eastern Washington school board is pleading for urgent federal intervention to force the state to comply with the Trump administration’s policy on transgender athletes.
In a complaint filed this week with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, the Kennewick School Board said it’s in a bind: Either comply with state law and jeopardize federal funding, or follow President Donald Trump and risk punishment from the state.
“The Kennewick School Board is committed to ensuring the protection of biological female athletics, maintaining ‘all-female’ locker rooms separate from male locker rooms, and prioritizing the privacy rights of our students,” the complaint reads. “However, we find ourselves caught between conflicting directives

And then there were 16.
While much of the nation has been riveted by the opening rounds of the NCAA Men’s basketball tournament, the lunatics on the political left have been battling it out in their own game of March Madness. After some tough, bruising contests of left-wing mental illness, the “Bitter 16” have survived to fight it out for the national crazy crown. Which one of these ranting, hypocritical libs will emerge the ultimate victor?

Democrats had a tough time at a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing yesterday on the censorship industrial complex.
They had to argue there was never any censorship during the Biden administration (including during Covid!) and that free speech and freedom of the press were never threatened by the partnership of government agencies with private institutions to combat “disinformation.” After all, the government was just trying to catch foreign disinformation operations, they argued, so any censorship that did happen was necessary and proper.

CNN's Harry Enten reports on new polls that show President Donald Trump is "basically more popular than he was at any point in term number one, and more popular than he was when he won election back in November of 2024."
"The bottom line is, the percentage of Americans who say we're on the right track is through the room," Enten told CNN host Sara Sidner. "And if you were to compare it to when presidents have historically been re-elected, of course, Trump is not constitutionally eligible to run for re-election, but I think it sort of puts it in perspective, 42 percent

How President Biden and left activists built the censorship conglomerate is the story of government activists, taxpayer slush funds and a determination by liberals not to share journalism with unwashed conservatives.
A clearer, uncensored picture emerged in the lingering months of Mr. Biden’s rule and its 2025 aftermath. The left’s free speech crackdown was finally exposed by dogged Republican officeholders and conservative foot soldiers.
Hoaxes like the Steele dossier, President Trump and a Russian bank, “Trump grabbed the steering wheel,” exoneration of Wuhan virus lab, Jussie Smollett, Michael Avenatti, Russian bounties on Americans, letter of 51 Obama former intelligence officials — all would have thrived for long destructive shelf lives

Fox weekend headline declared that “data show Gen Z ‘most conservative’ generation in decades.” The real question is: Why are we shocked? Gen Z’s lives have been entirely dominated by the lies and failures that the left and the Democrat Party have perpetrated.
Following on the heels of Boomers, Gen X, and Millennials, Generation Z is comprised of individuals born between 1997 and 2012. For such individuals, the ascendancy of the left and the Democrat Party has dominated their lives. According to Gallup polling, in 1997 (the first year of Gen Z) 28 percent of Democrats described their views as liberal (as opposed to conservative or moderate)

When I hear Democrats whine about a duly elected president being a “threat to democracy,” I can’t help but think about a line from “Fight for Your Right” by the Beastie Boys: “Your pops caught you smoking, and he says, ‘No way!’ That hypocrite smokes two packs a day!”
In other words, it’s a bit ridiculous for someone with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth to demand that you refrain from doing the same thing. And this is about as hypocritical as what Democrats are doing when they decry threats to democracy. When Democrats said democracy would be in peril if President Trump won, they neglected to add

The Democratic Party’s struggle to rebound from bruising losses last year has put it in a vulnerable position ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
It has been nearly four months since Republicans took control of the White House and Senate from Democrats, and the Democratic Party has been unable to rebound. In addition to not putting up a real fight against President Donald Trump’s agenda, the party is bleeding support, and there’s no sign of it stopping. At the end of January, a Quinnipiac University poll had MAGA swaggering as the GOP took its largest-ever advantage over Democrats in favorability ratings.

In the matter of Donald Trump v. Leviathan, let me begin by stipulating that Sir Thomas More was right in A Man for All Seasons when he remonstrated with his future son-in-law William Roper. Roper was urging More to arrest the scheming Richard Rich, whose machinations would eventually lead to More’s execution. But, More points out, Rich had broken no law.
William Roper: So, now you give the Devil the benefit of law!
Sir Thomas More: Yes! What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?
William Roper: Yes, I’d cut down every law in England to do that!

This was the week I became convinced that Don Lemon is an undercover MAGA operative. The former CNN presenter was on Bill Maher’s podcast the other day and was asked about the dire outlook for the Democratic Party. Which way should it go?
“People love AOC,” Lemon ventured. “People love Jasmine Crockett. People love Eric Swalwell and the like. I think the Democratic Party should put people out there who the people want — who they’re asking for.”
Maher begged to differ. People do not want these people, he pointed out. But Lemon continued to insist otherwise.

At his 2005 Senate confirmation hearing to be chief justice of the United States Supreme Court, John Roberts famously invoked America's national pastime in describing his view of the judicial role in our constitutional order: "Judges are like umpires. Umpires don't make the rules, they apply them. The role of an umpire and a judge is critical. They make sure everybody plays by the rules, but it is a limited role. Nobody ever went to a ball game to see the umpire."
If only!
Unfortunately, Roberts' actual career on the high court has been one extensive repudiation of his lofty "umpire" proclamation. In exalting above all other concerns
