Commentary California’s leadership, emboldened by the tech-media-finance conglomerate, has successfully tranquilized the requisite number of citizenry via stimulus checks, dopamine manipulation (via thumbs on smartphones as much as needles in arms), and voting process updates to hold onto power indefinitely. Without a serious intervention, the political balance of power may lead us to a point…

Opinion: More Than Money, Canadian Health Care Needs Leadership From All Sides
Commentary When the premiers were first called to a sit-down lunch to talk about health care with Prime Minister Trudeau, there was plenty of talk about the potential for systemic change, innovation, and accountability. It seemed that Canadians and their leaders were finally on the same page in recognizing that healthcare, as it is, is…

Commentary The following is adapted from a talk delivered at Hillsdale College on Feb. 7, 2023. Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter last October and the subsequent reporting on the Twitter Files by journalists Matt Taibbi, Bari Weiss, and a handful of others beginning in early December is one of the most important news stories of…
The DEI Device, Or, What Would Marx Say?
Commentary When I was in college, you never heard the sacred troika, “diversity-equity-inclusion.” I started graduate school in the mid-1980s, and the prevailing attitude toward any such institutional formula voiced by the powers that be with a numbing regularity was jaded suspicion. It was the Era of High Theory (the tail end of it), which…

Commentary President Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech was notable for its glancing reference to the Chinese spy balloon that drifted over parts of Canada and the United States. If you blinked, you would have missed the guarded reference to an event that captivated the nation for a week. For domestic political purposes, Biden…

Commentary Since retiring from the university, several people have asked if I miss it. I tell them I miss what it was, but not what it has become. Higher education in America has gone from being the best in the world to one of the most pathetic. Why? It’s hard to describe what academia was to…
Ignorance Is the End of Freedom
Commentary There’s currently a raging national debate on what our students should know or not know about American history. This debate goes to the very core of our national being and future. That’s why I chose to write my new book, “Toward a Perfect Union: The Moral and Cultural Case for Teaching the Great American…

Commentary There were two simultaneous hearings yesterday in the House now ruled by Republicans. The first concerned Big Tech censorship and featured Twitter ex-employees being grilled on their role in controlling the public mind in ways that were politically biased. It was mostly boring of course but I was struck by how many times the…
Defending the Right to Protect Life
Commentary According to Shawn Carney, president of the grassroots pro-life organization 40 Days for Life, the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade was one of the greatest days in our history—for everyone but the Biden administration. The White House is mad, Carney told me in a recent episode of “Over the Target Live.” “And…
Omar Not Just Antisemitic, but Also Anti-American
Commentary The Republican-controlled House has voted to boot Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), off the House Foreign Affairs Committee. I salute Republicans for leadership, beneficial for the country and beneficial for black Americans whose interests Omar pretends to represent. Omar pushed back from the House floor, playing, of course, the race card. She accused Republicans of…
