If you’ve never watched this, it takes less than two minutes, and it’s a nice piece of framework: In her much-discussed essay a few months ago, Helen Andrews argued that American institutions have been feminized. Talking about tendencies and averages — “feminine patterns of behavior” — rather…
Twaddle to the right, twaddle to the left, and not a drop to drink. In contemplating China’s meteoric rise (though on thought I am not sure that meteors rise) Americans usually attribute it to cheap labor or theft of intellectual property or unfair governmental subsidies. But our religious faith…
Minneapolis, once a bastion of Scandinavian and Midwestern homogeneity, now grapples with the fallout of unchecked mass immigration. Somali welfare dependency strains resources and cultural clashes erupt daily. Recent ICE controversies have exposed the rot: aggressive raids targeting criminal Somali networks in the Cedar-Riverside “Little Mogadishu” neighborhood sparked outrage from refugee…
The Western media, of course, fail to report the significant domestic support the Iranian regime enjoys in its opposition to Israel and America. Is Trump serious about what many consider imminent airstrikes on Iran? From his administration’s perspective, the campaign against Iran is achieving its intended result: sowing chaos…
It’s the craziest thing. For four years, European “leaders” have puffed out their chests and proclaimed that Russia would be defeated in Ukraine.

Folks who move to the state say:…
For years now, the H-1B debate has been sold to us as a tech-company issue or a skills argument. But what doesn’t get talked about is how much of the H-1B pipeline starts long before the lottery or the job offers and way before the actual paperwork gets filled…
According to a recent podcast appearance by geopolitical analyst and University of Chicago professor John Mearsheimer, the Arab Gulf states led by Saudi Arabia (the Gulf Cooperation Council) are increasingly behind the scenes pushing pack against those who advocate for regime change in Iran. This marks a serious potential de-escalation…
Here’s one of the greatest certainties facing every household in America beyond the proverbial prospect of death and taxes: Namely, the monthly electric bill, as it arrives like clockwork either in the mail or by auto pay. And, according to Grok 4, there are approximately 143 million customers getting a metered…
Maybe the only way to reset US-Russian relations is to go back to the Cold War and start all over again. Donald Trump twice ran for President on a platform which included his desire to make normalizing relations with Russia a top priority. “Wouldn’t it be nice if we…
