Transgender orthodoxy has moved so far past the bounds of sanity that any attempt to question its effects is quickly discouraged and punished. We are expected to shut up and accept that public schools are passing policies to keep students’ gender identity transitions from parents, and that medical professionals can file to remove children from their parents’ custody if parents oppose physical and chemical transition efforts None of this is normal or even remotely defensible, and everyone, including many on the Left, know it.

End the Travel Mask Mandate Now
What little science there is on the subject shows that airborne disease transmission is not more likely on an airplane than it is indoors, where the CDC has already said masks are no longer needed. If anything, with all the fresh air brought into planes and all the filtering of recycled air, a plane is safer than the average building.
Americans Turn Back on Disney After LGBTQ Embrace
Nearly 7 in 10 Americans, upset with Disney’s embrace of the LGBTQ movement, no longer want to do “business” with Mickey Mouse and instead will seek out “family-friendly alternatives,” according to a new survey.
CNN’s Brian Stelter Gets Everything Wrong About Disney and the Midterm Elections
CNN’s media critic, whose only job is to attack conservative media, doesn’t understand, or pretends not to understand, the nature of this fight or why the Democratic Party is so unpopular right now. Maybe the midterm elections will bring him and CNN back to reality.
Jen Psaki Should Resign
The White House press secretary should have resigned last week when this news broke. This is an unprecedented breach of public ethics. Unfortunately, most of Psaki’s colleagues in the press briefing room seem to be OK with it. Psaki’s move and the media’s nonchalant apathy about it explain so much about what is wrong with the incestuous nature of the Washington media’s relationship with the Biden White House.
Biden Has Gone Wobbly on Ukraine
President Joe Biden has offered a lackluster response to new evidence of Russian war crimes in Ukraine. Contrary to the conspiracy theories offered by some, the evidence for these atrocities is abundant and clear. Yet, when asked by a journalist on Monday what sanctions he would propose in reaction to Russian atrocities, Biden could do no better than “I’ll let you know.”
The Magic Is Gone. Welcome to Disney’s Woke Kingdom
There is more to Disney’s iconic brand than fairy tales, Frozen sequels, and incredible theme parks. Disney is going woke and advocating left-wing social justice issues. The public is only now seeing the solid evidence.
NFL Creates a New Anybody-But-White-Males Hiring Policy
Once again, the NFL has caved to the leftist narrative of the perpetual victimization of minorities.
Culture War Themes Take Center Stage at Oscars
Oscar hosts Amy Schumer, Regina Hall, and Wanda Sykes joined forces to open the 2022 Academy Awards as culture war themes often took center stage. Their opening monologue took aim at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Act, a bill that many on the Left have dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg Rolling Over in Grave at Judge Jackson’s Answers
Jackson only refused to define a woman because she did not want to upset the woke mob of transgender rights supporters within the Democratic Party….She should study the lifetime achievements of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Maybe then she would be able to answer such difficult questions as “what is a woman?”
Jen Psaki Got Covid-19 Twice in 140 Days
Psaki did everything right by the politically perilous metrics the White House decided to hinge its reputation on. She got COVID-19 anyway. At long last, the rules are catching up to meet the reality that these cases themselves are not, and never were, what mattered to begin with.
How Could Any American Patriot Back Putin?
Dan Hannan: What is it that Trump and his followers see in Putin in the first place? He does not respect elections. He believes he can make up the rules as he goes along. The sole principle of his foreign policy is Machtpolitik — let the stronger take from the weaker. He has replaced multiparty pluralism with a cult of personality. He can’t tolerate criticism.
Mike Pence Should Stay on the 2024 Sidelines
Pence either gave too much to Trump over the course of four years or not enough on one pivotal day. His unpopularity is directly attributable to his time in the previous administration. Whether he would be a solid, national leader isn’t really the point. He lacks the support necessary even to make the attempt.
Tucker Carlson’s Speech Is Not a Crime
Our culture runs amok with vigilante hall monitors looking for people who supposedly pose a “threat to democracy.” It is unreasonable for anyone to suggest that Carlson face a federal criminal investigation for what he says on his show. That kind of illiberalism is what everybody’s supposedly fighting against. It’s Putin that has people arrested for saying the wrong words.
Including Rachel Levine Among the Women of the Year Is an Affront to Women and Girls
Nicole Russell: Shall I tell my two daughters not even to bother trying to be the best musician, athlete, or STEM employee because a transgender man might take their place, and absorb their due recognition, after years of effort? We must extend respect and kindness to all without hoisting transgender women to positions that render them equal to women and girls.
Make America Religious Again
A lack of religion has had devastating consequences in our country’s society.
Biden’s Free Covid Tests Are Made in China
At last week’s State of the Union address, Biden declared the importance of buying American. Yet, looking at the Biden Covid tests that were mailed last week, this is not true. Despite Biden’s oath to buy American, Biden Covid tests were made … in China.
10,000 Uncounted Ballots Found in Texas County
Election officials discovered 10,000 uncounted mail-in ballots over the weekend in Texas’smost populous county after the first-in-the-nation 2022 primary last week. Two close Democratic primary races, one for a state House seat and another for Texas attorney general, hang in the balance.
Ukraine’s Experience Shows Why Every Country Needs a Second Amendment
While the world watches armed Ukrainian civilians fight for their country, the Left still thinks you don’t need to own a gun. How often have you heard an anti-gun politician make the claim that semi-automatic rifles are “weapons of war” that “belong on the battlefield, not on our streets”?
Ukraine Adopts Its Own Second Amendment, But Is it Too Little, Too Late?
After decades of strict gun control laws, the Ukrainian Parliament changed its tune on the Second Amendment, voting to decriminalize gun ownership for self-defense. Although it is unfortunate that it took an invasion by a nuclear-armed power, President Zelensky took extraordinary steps to expedite Ukrainians’ ability to exercise their newly recognized rights.
Biden Mails It In
Apart from a brief introduction touching on recent events in Ukraine, almost all of Biden’s address could have been pulled from any boilerplate Democratic campaign speech delivered in the past two decades.
Europe Needs More American Oil and Gas, Not Windmills and Rainbows
When it comes to energy, the U.S. is currently in a unique and advantageous position precisely because it can export natural gas to those currently dependent on Russia.
Biden Receives Failing Grades on Ukraine and Russia Across Multiple Polls
None of this is surprising. Biden’s weakness and unwillingness to take a hard stand against Russia clearly played a role in Russia’s decision to move in.
Biden’s Weakness of Ukraine Has Fueled Putin’s Fire
Biden’s Ukraine blunders took their roots back in 2009. That was the year of the Obama administration’s disastrous “reset” with Russia. Led by Hillary and supported by then-VP Biden, this delusional effort encouraged Putin to believe that he would face little opposition to his escalated aggression. Putin was right.
