Commentary In recent weeks, there have been news reports about surveys showing record low levels of happiness and high levels of depression and pessimism among Americans. Those reports indicate that progressives’ plan for America is working well. They don’t want us to be happy. Woke progressives remind me of hyperconscious moms constantly hovering over their…
Comedy Is Cancelled, What Does That Say About Us?
Commentary If ANZAC Day is secular Australia’s one day of “religious observance,” Barry Humphries might have been one of our only secular patron saints, embodying the culture’s virtues, or at least what we thought were our virtues. While throwing the Anzacs and Humphries together in one paragraph might seem as surreal as some of his…
Hong Kong’s Two Systems, 1841-2020
Commentary Xia Baolong, currently Director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office and former Deputy Party Secretary of Zhejiang who allegedly ordered the removal of thousands of crosses from churches, paid a six-day visit to Hong Kong to officiate in the National Security Education Day. He made many speeches on “one country, two systems.”…
How to Defeat the Woke Apparatus
Commentary Have you ever wondered what the woke industrial complex actually means? Over the past century, several iterations of Marxism have been rolled out in a number of nations.

News analysis Now that President Joe Biden has formally announced his bid for a second term, the United States is one step closer to a rematch that polls suggest many Americans don’t want.

Commentary (Part One of this two-part series is “The Early Candidates Announce.”) On April 25, President Joe Biden launched his 2024 reelection bid. To me, at least, even in the heavily rehearsed and edited announcement video, he looked frail and partly incoherent. Americans seem to agree. An NBC News poll released the day before showed…
The Growing Tyranny of the Whack-a-Mole Regulatory State
Commentary The federal bureaucracies, “the swamp,” the administrative state, the unelected petty tyrants embedded in the executive branch of the federal government—call it what you will. I’ll call it the regulatory state. The regulatory state is on the verge of putting an end to a free and prosperous United States of America. The enormous costs…
The Founders and the Constitution, Part 7: John Rutledge
Commentary Let’s get the bad news out of the way first: John Rutledge owned slaves. Moreover, during the Constitutional Convention, he informed his fellow delegates that the three southernmost states would not join the Union if the Constitution immediately abolished the slave trade. Discerning people, however, judge whether a historical figure is great, not by…
South Korea Knows the Korean War Isn’t Over
Commentary A lesson in so-called forever war is deep background for this week’s celebration of the seven-decade-long U.S.-South Korea bilateral alliance. As U.S. President Joe Biden and South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol meet in Washington their nations have cause to celebrate. Ranking economies by GDP, the United States (population 330 million) is No. 1 and…
Is Transgenderism the First Wave of Transhumanism?
Commentary Transhumanism is a futuristic social movement that advocates harnessing the transformative powers of computer science, biotechnology, and medicine to create a “post-human species.” Want to be immortal, merge your brain with AI intelligence, attain the eyesight of a hawk, grow a prehensile tail, or attain the physical capacities of comic book superheroes? Transhumanism promises…
