Commentary Russia is suspending its nuclear treaty with the United States while China’s top diplomat, Wang Yi, visits Moscow amid rumors of China possibly providing weapons to Russia for the war in Ukraine. Last year, Russian President Vladimir Putin threatened to potentially use nuclear weapons in the war in Ukraine. During his annual State of…
Flight From China
Commentary Chinese leader Xi Jinping and others in China’s communist regime frequently associate themselves with the reputation Chinese culture has for patience and taking the long view in human interaction. If that cultural reputation is justified, Beijing’s claims ring false. Little of what China’s leadership does—certainly in the realm of economics—exemplifies either patience or the…
Will Ohio Disaster Be Used to Declare Climate Emergency?
Commentary More evidence that the green agenda has nothing to do with the environment is the fact that the president who has earmarked trillions for green initiatives has no plans to visit the site of the catastrophic train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. The toxic chemicals that spilled from the wreckage and seeped into the…
Gender Bias Cannot Explain the Pandemic Response
Commentary Women were notably victimized by lockdowns, masking, and vaccine mandates. The lockdowns yanked many working women with children out of the workforce, closed child care and schooling, and forced them back into the home. Millions were hit by this fate, and many are still not back at work. Labor force participation by working-age women…
The Superwoke Bowl
Commentary If the 2023 Superbowl goes down in history as the “Superwoke Bowl” or the “Supersexist Bowl” it will have earned its title.

The Importance of American Assistance in Ukraine’s Fight Against Russia
Commentary The decisive moment is at hand in Ukraine. While other NATO countries have assisted Ukraine, that country wouldn’t have been able to resist successfully without American military and humanitarian assistance that now exceeds $50 billion. It’s only the United States that could assure Ukraine’s durable ability to resist almost any level of assault by…
China’s ‘Peace Plan’ Reveals True Intentions
Commentary The history of armed conflict reveals at least one truism: wars are more easily started than concluded. Consider the bloodiest conflict of the 20th century, the Great War. The conflict was at a stalemate for years until the Australian General John Monash engineered a breakthrough at Villers-Bretenneux and Le Hamel. For years, the frontlines…
New Bills to Afflict Californians
Commentary The California Legislature seems determined to drive out even more residents by erecting “a multitude of New Offices” and sending “hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance,” to quote one of the Declaration of Independence’s charges against King George III, tyrant. Before the Feb. 17 deadline to submit…
Hypocrisy Unlimited: Hollywood’s Secret Counterfeit Vaccine Network
Commentary Last week, I had a remarkable phone call with a man or a woman—I am equivocating to protect the identity, though I assure you he or she was one or the other, not in the least transgendered—from my former home in the Los Angeles area, regarding Hollywood and COVID-19 or, as it is known…
Governments Can’t Blame Inflation on Energy Anymore
Commentary At the end of February 2023, the price of oil (WTI and Brent), Henry Hub and ICE natural gas, aluminum, copper, steel, corn, and wheat, and the Baltic Dry Index are below their February 2022 levels.
