it is an embarrassment to the United States and a testimony to President Joe Biden’s incompetence that he just released a major international weapons smuggler — “the Merchant of Death” is the man’s nickname — in exchange for Griner’s freedom.

Trump’s Downward Spiral of Disgraceful Misconduct
It’s hard to see how Donald Trump’s statement about “terminating” the “rules, regulation and articles” in the Constitution doesn’t disqualify him for the second term he says he seeks.
Republicans Who Want to Move on From Trump Look to Georgia
Herschel Walker’s defeat in the Georgia Senate runoff completes the state’s rejection of former President Donald Trump but not the Republican Party.
The Constitution Is More Important Than Any Former President
Quin Hillyer: Now that former President Donald Trump has called for the suspension of the Constitution when it suits his ends, every elected Republican should ostracize him.
Will There Be Any Media Introspection Over the Paul Pelosi Story?
It has been over a month since the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was attacked, spawning establishment media outrage over right-wing rhetoric, yet it still isn’t clear exactly what happened. If anything, establishment media have been making it harder to understand what happened.
Fauci Has Destroyed the Credibility of the Public Health Establishment
Fauci has been the embodiment of anti-science, shooting down questions and discouraging intellectual curiosity about Covid-19.
Tom Brady Chose Football Over Family and Lost
Men like former NFL receiver Cole Beasley who retired to spend time with family are what our culture needs — not Brady. Fatherhood should be a priority for men with children, not playing football. Unfortunately, even with all the money and resources at his disposal, Brady couldn’t figure that out.
The Climate Grift Continues
The conference decided that the world’s successful nations should pay hundreds of billions of dollars to unsuccessful ones to compensate for supposed harm done to them by industrialization. A portion of the outrage is that China, the world’s biggest polluter and second-largest economy, may be allowed to wriggle out of making payments because it is “developing” and might even get some of the loot.
DOJ Sets the Stage to Interfere in Yet Another Election
This is the Democratic Party’s fifth consecutive attempt to manipulate the will of the people.
Happy 80th Birthday Mr. President. Now Please Don’t Run
At his advanced age, Biden has become a danger to himself and others. He is clearly past the peak of his executive function and is often not all there. A decision at this point to run again for president can only be an act of selfishness. It would be a total failure to put country above personal ambition.
Lauren Boebert’s Double-Barreled Blasphemy
Peter Laffin: Boebert, who is a self-professed “Christian nationalist,” lost my support, and I suspect the support of many Christians, this past June when she made the following “joke” in front of a live audience: “How many AR-15s do you think Jesus would have had? Well, he didn’t have enough to keep his government from killing him.”
Trump 3.0 Is a Changed Man. Now He’s a Loser
Hugo Gurdon: Just because Trump retains all the excruciating qualities he ever had doesn’t mean he’s unchanged. In one important respect, he is very different now. He is a loser. And he knows it. Every fiber of his bulky being betrays what he can’t admit — that he’s fast losing the support he once enjoyed and the confidence it fed within him.
The Trump Delusion Has Finally Started Wearing Off
Even some of those who have been going along with the Big Steal farrago are starting to sense, uneasily, that the institutions of a free republic are easier to tear down than to restore. Whisper it, but America — the frank, bold, optimistic America that the rest of us love — is coming back.
Republicans Must Choose: Electoral Success or Trump?
If the Republicans’ election failure on Tuesday has a silver lining, it’s that it will persuade more of them that former President Donald Trump is a massive liability and turn them decisively away from him.
Blame Trump for Weak Republican Performance
The verdict is in: Against massive public dissatisfaction with the direction of a country led entirely by Democrats, former President Donald Trump’s Republican Party still scared enough voters that it embarrassingly underperformed in this year’s elections. The less Trump-like the Republican candidates, the better they did.
Republicans Can Do Better Than Trump in 2024
Viewing Trump as either the savior of the party or country and deserving of another chance at the presidency isn’t supported by all manner of evidence. The Republican Party should not select an unserious man who embraces conspiracies and throw him into the ring for a third round.
Attack on Paul Pelosi Hints at Significant Capitol Police Failure
The Capitol Police must answer two main questions. First, what protective systems were employed at the time of the attack — and if they were inactive, why? Were they malfunctioning and, if so, why weren’t those malfunctions detected earlier? Second, why were no Capitol Police officers from the agency’s San Francisco field office deployed for protective security patrols?
Associated Press Declares That the World Series Isn’t Black Enough
Our race-obsessed media outlets are once again complaining about the skin color of athletes while pretending that they are fighting against racism. The latest racism from establishment media revolves around the World Series, with the Associated Press whining that there will be no U.S.-born black athletes on the rosters of the Houston Astros or the Philadelphia Phillies.
Some in Establishment Media Continue to Defend Fetterman After Debate Flop
Whether more journalists come out of the woodwork over the next week to join MSNBC and others in protecting his campaign is anyone’s guess, but those who have already have shown exactly what we already knew: Establishment media outlets want the Democrats to win at all costs.
Don’t Bring a Stroke Victim to a Debate with a TV Star
Just as one probably shouldn’t bring a knife to a gunfight, Democrats probably shouldn’t have brought a 400-pound human vegetable incapable of processing the English language to a live political debate against a professional television star who just so happened to cut his teeth as a world-renowned cardiothoracic surgeon.
Falling Test Scores Illustrate the Disaster of Distance Learning
Once it was clear that Covid was not a major threat to children, every schoolhouse in America should have reopened immediately for in-person instruction. Unfortunately, special interests run many state educational bureaucracies, and of course, special interests positively own the Biden administration.
The Complete and Total Failure of the Jan. 6 Committee
Much of the blame for the Democratic Party’s freak-out over the regrettable occurrences that day belongs to the House committee investigating the riot, which has endlessly hyped and distorted the events leading up to Jan. 6 and the actual events of that day.
“Pandemic of the Unvaccinated” Turned Out to Be Just Another Dem Lie
The “get vaccinated to save lives” and “trust the science” mantras that dominated pandemic messaging for nearly two years turned out to be a farce. The people promoting the importance of trusting science showed exactly why we should all be skeptical of it. Biden, Democrats, and every leftist who promoted this false narrative and these baseless attacks owe the country, if not the world, an apology.
John Fetterman Should Not Be a Senator
With all due sympathy for a man recovering from a stroke, it must be said: Fetterman was a ludicrous candidate even before his stroke, and now he shouldn’t even be in the race. Only 100 people, out of some 330 million, are given the privilege of being senators. It’s an office that performs a vital function and shouldn’t be a rehabilitation center.
