The recent controversies over politically correct rewrites of James Bond novels and Roald Dahl’s children’s books highlights just how dependent a woke culture industry is on the works of dead white men, like Dahl, Fleming and Tolkien, who were anything but politically correct. Or even living, but currently politically incorrect white women, like J.K. Rowling.

“Stakeholder capitalism” married ESG and, with their baby, cancel culture, jeopardizes Americans’ freedoms, security, standard of living, and opportunity. These ideologies politicizing corporations threaten small businesses, nonprofits and freedom-loving people.

The 2024 GOP field will likely see little use for mainstream journalists. For some candidates, that might be a mistake.

The Bulwark

Pence is a former governor and VP. He is a solid conservative, beloved by the Christian Right, anti-woke before it was super-cool,and and a hyper-loyal defender of the entire Trump agenda. In some ways, he is also an American hero. So, from the GOP’s point of view, what’s not to like? But he refused to aid and abet the coup. And in the modern GOP that remains the one irredeemable sin.

Conservative sites should embrace cultural engagement in both the classic and contemporary realms. The latter is challenging; discovering nuggets amid the morass can be exhausting. That said, in a world where every day makes it ever more apparent the opposition sees us as subhumans deserving extermination, we need to fortify ourselves with more than snarl and snark about how liberals are poopyheads.

Colin Kaepernick has hurt untold numbers of black and biracial kids out there who desperately need loving parents today.

President Joe Biden, the 80-year-old commander in chief and leader of the free world, almost never accomplishes anything before 9 a.m., former White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday. "President Biden does nothing at 9 a.m.," she said on Morning Joe. "He is a night owl."

Hollywood in Toto

“Top Gun: Maverick” earned just one Oscar Sunday night, but the blockbuster still ruled the evening. The apolitical 2022 sequel, and gracious star Tom Cruise, set the tone for a shocking Academy Awards reversal. The 95th annual gala focused on charm, glamour and gratitude, mostly eschewing the hard-Left politics that made the ceremony unwatchable in recent years.

David Kamioner: It’s an open secret in DC that his wife Giselle is running his office and deciding on his votes. The poor devil can hardly keep his drool bucket steady and she’s already doing a samba over his political grave. The plan is: After Fetterman stays in the hospital for an extended period to deal with clinical depression, he’ll resign and PA Dem governor Shapiro will name Giselle to the vacant seat.

The real purpose of the investigation is to discover the involvement of Joe in Hunter’s business dealings, especially his ones with other countries, like China or Russia, for instance. How involved in Hunter’s business was Joe Biden? Now that the Republicans are in control of the House of Representatives, there are several pressing political questions that we may finally be able to find out.

Breitbart

Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that his forthcoming book will show readers that he has had a “very fascinating life” and that many of the powerful people who attack him now used to adore him before he ran for president. The book, titled Letters to Trump, is the former president’s second book release since leaving office in January 2021.

Prior to the show, there was hope, largely driven by the nominations made, that some return to normalcy would prevail. Perhaps, just maybe, the award process wouldn’t boil down to producing the best “diversity” storylines. But nope, it was exactly what you’d expect. Top Gun: Maverick was nominated for seven different awards. In the end, the massive box-office hit hauled in a single win for Best Sound.

In the evening’s most explicitly political moment, Everything Everywhere All at Once co-director Daniel Scheinert defended drag queens and drag children while accepting his Oscar for best director Sunday at the 95th annual Academy Awards.

The Federalist

At the end of the day, it’s always been true that whatever reactionary “vibe shift” sent the Brooklyn bloggers into a panic last year will be superficial at most. That’s not for lack of trying. There are people in Hollywood who want to stop making sequels and pandering to Oberlin grads.

The fall of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank are signs that the tech industry’s financial backbone is crumbling. This bodes ill for Democrats who receive the lion’s share of support offered by Big Tech and startups, so they’re making an unprecedented move to limit the damage done to depositors.
