David Hookstead: I don’t feel very sad for them, either. Our women’s national team has gone out of their way to alienate as many people as possible with the nonstop protesting and complaining. It seems like they’re focused more on being activists than they are on being players, and the results on the field seem to reflect that fact.

“Woke” Olympics Are Just Games Played for Leftist Street Cred
There are so few fans in the stands that U.S. spectators don’t know whether they are at a WNBA game or a Joe Biden rally. The “woke” Olympics are turning folks off. But be sure to watch one event, the 400-meter hurdles, which will be won by a male gazelle who self-identifies as a woman. And there is drama around Germany’s woman shot-putter and whether she can compete; she is battling a groin pull and jock itch. Stay tuned.
Defend Simone Biles, But Don’t Glorify Quiting
Mental illness, mental blocks, etc. are real, but we should focus on people getting help so they can get back to work and back to living.
It’s Time to Seriously Question Biden’s Mental Health
President Joe Biden is facing a serious national security crisis. The challenge comes not from abroad but rather from the neural connections operating inside his own head.
Biden’s Disgraceful Treatment of Our Afghanistan Heroes
Regardless of the politics of a war, the American people recognize the sacrifice and heroism of the troops who offer life and limb when country calls. We support the troops even when we don’t support the war, but President Joe Biden wants to bring troops home without any celebration or recognition, just silence. And it is a disgrace.
What the Protests in Cuba Tell Us About the Left’s Agenda
For most Americans, things like free speech, freedom of religion and freedom of movement are not ancillary. They are central to our lives. They can’t be traded away for a year of extra day care. The left does not share this view. Worse, as proven repeatedly in many corners of the world, the left is ready and willing to crush those who do.
Teaching Critical Race Theory Devalues College Education Even Further
Campuses were once places where ideas were debated. Today, they are places where any right-of-center opposition speech is labeled “hate” and is shut down. Liberal schools like Emory, Middlebury and Brown fight to keep right-of-center voices off campus. They do not educate, they indoctrinate. And our country is paying the price.
Teachers Could Be the Next Traditionally Democrat Group to Swing for GOP
The American left has done its best over the last eight years to change the face of the education system from the inside out, alienating millions of educators in the wake of critical race theory, LGBTQ+ education for minors and massive restrictions on individual freedom to teach, grade and discipline as necessary. There has never been a better opportunity for the right to repair its relationship with teachers…
A Biden Border Crisis Is an Effort to Subvert Democracy
A 2018 Yale study found that there were likely more than 22 million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. If these illegal immigrants were able to obtain legal status or citizenship, it is very likely that they would help usher in permanent left-wing majorities in Congress and the White House.
184 Die July 4 Weekend as Violent Crime Continues to Rise
Declining morale among police officers and a dramatic plummet in recruitment have left law enforcement agencies across the country under-staffed and unable to keep up with the rise in violence. Officers leaving the force most often cite anti-police sentiment and political turmoil as the reason for their resignations.
Biden Targets Firearms Retailers, Not Criminals
The President would be well advised also to consult with and listen to firearms retailers, who are as concerned as anyone with stopping violent crime and who actually are in a position to help.
Why Ron DeSantis Is the Future of the GOP
Thrust into the spotlight as the pandemic’s supposed great villain, he constructed a persona that’s catnip to Republicans and rage-bait to Democrats: the Refined Florida Man. The basis of the Refined Florida Man persona is the belief that Florida is the last, great hope for the country, the place that epitomizes resistance to the technocratic ethos of the modern Democratic Party. The state of Florida, during Covid, was a free one.
The Rise of the Government Thought Police
Anyone who committed violent acts during Jan. 6 political rally gone bad should be punished, but the attempt to brand the entire event as an insurrection reveals the intent to outlaw political speech the Left dislikes. The vast majority of people were simply there to peaceably petition their government for redress of grievances.
CNN’s Don Lemon Reportedly Lives in Town That Is 80% White
CNN’s Don Lemon reportedly lives in a $4.3 million house in Suffolk County, Long Island, that is 80% white and just 3% African American, despite his contention that black and white Americans live in “different realities.” Fox News host Tucker Carlson revealed the true reality of Lemon’s neighborhood in a Monday segment of “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
Fighting and Losing the Culture War
Many Republicans are probably willing to let the LGBTQs do what they do in peace — and in private. But shoehorning them into “normal” society (and your work place) by means of the civil rights laws has seemed a perversion of those laws. It’s a cultural thing — and we should ask, where was the black community when those laws started to be perverted?
Biden’s Border Crisis Is No Laughing Matter
Ronna McDaniel: Americans understand the necessity for secure borders and the pressing need to address this humanitarian crisis. Why doesn’t Kamala Harris? Why does she keep failing to answer simple, good-faith questions about her pronounced absence in a time of abject crisis?
Jeffrey Toobin’s Zoom Call Masturbation Incident Is the Least of His Offenses
His unseemly act was minor compared to his “day job” fanning the flames of Trump-Russia, a scandalous political hit job which caused irreparable harm to scores of people never accused of wrongdoing. He should be exposed for that instead.
It’s Time to Consider Mandatory National Service to Help Heal Our Broken Country
The concept of civic responsibility — as enunciated so eloquently by President John Kennedy — is eroding. A national service requirement can help reinvigorate a shared sense of citizenship in everyday Americans.
Fauci Needs to Go, and Common Sense Needs to Be Invited in
Anthony Fauci, the 80-year-old, lifelong Washington bureaucrat, has been wrong on COVID about as much as he has been right. Yet he projects being wrong with the same conviction as when he is right. It is confusing, and he has blown all of his credibility.
The Centers for Disease Confusion
The CDC has failed to respond to multiple inquiries from the Daily Caller about whether or not the agency will update its restrictions guidance for unvaccinated people who survived Covid-19. Numerous studies have shown that individuals previously infected possess antibodies granting them a degree of natural immunity…
Why Does the Left Seemingly Hate Israel?
The Western left always despises the unapologetically successful — as if they are inevitably beneficiaries of unfair privilege. Underdog Israel was not so hated from 1947 to 1967. Then, it was poorer, more socialist and in danger of being extinguished by its many neighboring enemies.
This Dem Bill Will Let Illegal Immigrants and Felons Vote
Sen. Ted Cruz: Last Tuesday, I sat in the Senate Rules Committee markup for nine hours fighting tooth and nail against S.1, what many call “The Corrupt Politicians Act.” I did that because this is the single most dangerous piece of legislation facing the Senate right now. The Democrats’ priority is The Corrupt Politicians Act, because they want to stay in power forever.
Wokeness in the Armed Forces Is Undermining Our War-Fighting Ability
Since early February, this administration’s obsession with wokeness in the military — referred to officially as “diversity” and “inclusion” — has only become worse. According to civilian military experts, this fixation is weakening our nation’s war-fighting ability.
The Intercept’s Dirty Smear Job on Our Reporters Deserves a Response
The story alleged that our reporters had skewed their coverage to demonize groups like Antifa and BLM. The reality is that our reporters were just a few of the many journalists who ventured out during a global pandemic. They accepted danger to cover an important story better than anyone else in America.
