I reported last week about the decided move of young women to the political left and away from the religious affiliation of their childhood.

But these measures, at least in the short run, do not appear to be relevant to the success young women are having in day-to-day living in America.

By measures such as work and academic achievement, ...Read more

Politically incorrect words don't kill, but Venezuelan gangs do.

On Saturday, former President Donald Trump warned rallygoers in a small Wisconsin town that if Vice President Kamal Harris "is reelected, your town and every town ... will be transformed into a Third World hell-hole. "

Trump repeatedly warns that Biden-Harris open borders are ...Read more

Sometimes politicians steal people's homes. Really. If homeowners miss property tax payments, even if they never received the bills, some towns grab the whole house and keep the proceeds. All the proceeds. Even if the total is much more than the property tax owed. I reported on this (mal)practice a couple years ago. Since then, there's been good...Read more

The Democrats were distraught when Rachel Maddow negotiated with her Comcast paymasters to only do her show one night a week. What would the Left do with their Maddow magic cut by 80%?

For media critics, Maddow has been tougher to analyze as a cable "news" host. She goes on long pseudo-intellectual benders of historical analysis and then tries ...Read more

WASHINGTON -- Last week, the Department of Homeland Security delivered alarming news to Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, about the number of noncitizens with serious criminal records inside U.S. borders.

There were 662,566 noncitizens with criminal histories on ICE's docket as of July 21, DHS Deputy Director Patrick J. Lechleitner wrote to ...Read more

Mexico Welcomes First Female President. But How Much Has Really Changed?

SAN DIEGO -- Is what's happening in Mexico a miracle? Or a mirage?

Now and then, I like to perform a wellness check on the old country. I go through the ritual to honor the memory of my grandfather, Roman -- who came with his family to the United States as a boy during ...Read more

If you want evidence that men and women are fundamentally different, look at how they're going to vote in November.

A recent Quinnipiac Poll puts former President Donald Trump up 1 point ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris, 48-47. But among female voters, Harris dominates, besting Trump 53-40. The reverse is true for Trump. He leads male ...Read more

KITTANING, Pennsylvania -- Jennifer Krantz was in the checkout line at Sprankle's grocery store in this Armstrong County city with her three boys, Brayden, Eddie and Frederick, along with her husband, Bryant, when former President Donald Trump handed the clerk waiting on them a $100 bill.

"Here, it is going to go down a little bit," Trump ...Read more

I realized something very important about the human condition when I was in high school.

I realized that people tend to hate those who fight evil far more than they hate those engaged in doing evil.

What made me come to this conclusion was the way in which many people reacted to communism and to anti-communism.

To my amazement, a great many ...Read more

At the time of this writing, the outcome of the presidential race is pretty close to being a coin flip. So what I write is not in any way influenced by who will win in November, since that is unknowable.

What is a virtual certainty is that on Nov. 6 roughly half the country will be full of joy, and the other half will be in a deep depression ...Read more

President Donald Trump has no reason to do another debate with Vice President Kamala Harris on CNN -- or anywhere else for that matter -- because she cheats. These debates are rigged.

In the first debate, ABC clearly gave Harris the questions in advance. Then she rehearsed answers based on lie after lie (like an actress memorizing a script) -- ...Read more

Higher education has been a cesspool of anti-Americanism, censorious leftism and cultural radicalism for longer than I have been alive. The moral rot is, and always has been, particularly acute at Ivy League or otherwise putatively "elite" institutions. The pro-Hamas "protests" that have rocked university campuses since Oct. 7 are indicative: ...Read more

Though Democrats are endlessly prattling on about "norms" and "democracy," it is often unclear what aspects of the constitutional order they actually support.

This week, for example, Vice President Kamala Harris reiterated her support for suspending the legislative filibuster so that Democrats, should they eke out a slim Senate majority, can ...Read more

For eight years now, Democrats have bemoaned interference in American elections. The national security apparatus of the United States has been warning about influence campaigns. The media has done so as well. Editorials and anchors have decried Russian interference.

They are all strangely silent over the latest foreign interference in our ...Read more

Dear Fellow Jewish American,

I beg you to consider the consequences of a Trump victory.

In the aftermath of Oct. 7, we've seen an ugly new chapter in left-wing antisemitism. Left-wing activists on campuses and elsewhere adorned their posters with images of hang gliders, delighting, one must assume, in the acts committed when those gliders ...Read more

The Left used to pressure reporters trying to be objective by insulting them as "stenographers to power." You can't just repeat what the powerful say, they argued. You have to expose them. Well, some of them.

We remember all the lectures during the Trump presidency that all their anti-Trump aggression was just "holding him accountable." Holding...Read more

In my time as a political consultant, I observed that carrying out a campaign strategy was surprisingly simple. You settled on a basic strategy, emphasizing the candidate's strong points on issues and character, framing the election in terms favorable to most voters. Then you just carried it out.

Almost always, events would intrude -- ...Read more

SAN DIEGO -- All of a sudden, Democrats are aghast at the concept of the U.S. government deporting undocumented immigrants.

Who knew? Although you won't hear it from a liberal media that is busy at the moment trying to get Vice President Kamala Harris elected, the Democratic Party has a long and not-so-proud history of aggressively removing ...Read more
