The fight outside North High School in Denver was about to turn more violent as one girl wrapped a bike chain around her fist to strike the other. Just before the attacker used the weapon, school staff arrived and restrained her, ending the fight but not the story. Most high schools would have referred the… Continue reading Racially Sensitive ‘Restorative’ School Discipline Isn’t Behaving Very Well

The End of America? It’s Not That Hard to Imagine
Lately, we keep hearing about this or that “threat to the republic,” ironically mostly involving something Republicans are doing or purporting to do, but I’m starting to think maybe (stop me if you’ve heard this before) the real threat is a cabal of powerful people who don’t want to give up power. My recent column… Continue reading The End of America? It’s Not That Hard to Imagine

Will the Battle to Replace Breyer Be Bitter, or Just Close?
Wednesday’s announcement by Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer that he would be retiring at the end of the court’s current session has raised the obvious question of how contentious the battle over his replacement will be.

How Universities Will Sidestep SCOTUS on Affirmative Action
Embracing affirmative action is virtually a job qualification for university administrators. The same is true, alas, for faculty and students in the humanities and social sciences. They march in lockstep toward a society permanently categorized by race, all with the best of intentions but not the best of outcomes. They aren’t just woke. Their eyelids… Continue reading How Universities Will Sidestep SCOTUS on Affirmative Action
Drop Boxes, Mail-In Voting Are Not Threats to Election Integrity
Late last week, a judge in Wisconsin ruled that absentee-ballot drop boxes could no longer be used in the state, writing that state law only allows for absentee ballots to be returned in-person or mailed back for counting. This ruling comes as ballot drop boxes had widespread, successful use during the 2020 presidential election, predominately… Continue reading Drop Boxes, Mail-In Voting Are Not Threats to Election Integrity
The First Lady Double Standard

In the weeks leading up to Inauguration Day, pro-Jill puff pieces dominated the headlines in ways that only Michelle Obama could understand. Melania Trump, of course,… Continue reading The First Lady Double Standard

To “cancel” the charge, I was instructed to call a number,… Continue reading Bad News: You’re in Debt. Worse News: You’re in Phony Debt.
Tucker Carlson: D.C.’s Conflict With Russia Will Only Benefit China
TUCKER CARLSON: When permanent Washington pushes for war with Russia, who benefits? We don’t ask that question enough. The United States certainly doesn’t benefit. That’s obvious to anyone who thinks about it for a second. It’s so glaringly obvious, in fact, that the people pushing this war immediately denounce you as a traitor if you… Continue reading Tucker Carlson: D.C.’s Conflict With Russia Will Only Benefit China
Youngkin Rips Off the School Mask Mandate
Newly minted Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed nine executive orders and two directives that, among other things, ended a mandate that state employees be vaccinated and a school mask mandate. He embraced the radical idea of allowing parents to decide if their children mask up in the classroom, effective Jan. 24.
