Commentary On March 27, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act of 2023 with overwhelming bipartisan support. The bill, authored by Representative Chris Smith, targets the Chinese Communist Party’s state sponsored forced organ harvesting by imposing sanctions or severe criminal penalties on individuals who fund, sponsor, or facilitate this inhumane…

The Big Shift in Iowa
Commentary Iowa Republicans owe their Democrat colleagues a big thank you. The Democrats’ extreme positions have crippled their own party’s position in the state. That’s the conclusion I reached after talking with more than 30 Republican leaders during a two-day visit to the Hawkeye State. I have been going to Iowa for nearly 40 years…

Commentary In late 2020, the airways became saturated with triumphant reporting of Pfizer and Moderna’s “95 percent effective” COVID-19 vaccines. Millions rolled up their sleeves with the belief that reaching herd immunity would end the pandemic. But by June 2021, the pandemic endgame story had gone off script. Highly vaccinated countries like Israel were experiencing a new wave of…
Biden’s Undemocratic EV Edict
Commentary President Joe Biden is set to “transform” and “remake” the entire auto industry—“first with carrots, now with sticks”—notes the Washington Post, as if dictating the output of a major industry is within the governing purview of the executive branch. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing draconian emissions limits for vehicles, ensuring that 67…
Elon Musk Turning Twitter Into Totalitarian Social Credit App?
Commentary Like WeChat in China, Musk seeks to merge Twitter’s social media app, banking, payments, and many more activities into a single source of information—and monitoring. Twitter, as we know it, anyway, has ceased to exist. According to a filing in California federal court on April 4, Twitter Inc. is no longer a company. It’s…
Southern Poverty Law Center’s Self-Serving Double Standard
Commentary Two lawyers with the notorious Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) have been in the news in recent weeks. One is facing domestic terrorism charges; the other is votes away from a lifetime appointment to the federal bench. The SPLC fully supports both lawyers: Thomas Webb Jurgens, a suspected Antifa terrorist arrested and charged for…
The Only Way Out Is Through
Commentary In 2017, my friend Rod Dreher published his popular book, “The Benedict Option: A Strategy for Christians in a Post-Christian Nation.” Dreher’s basic prescription, already intimately familiar to Orthodox Jews, is a localist focus on the cohesive formation of tight-knit, virtuous, religious communities as the best way of enduring the cultural onslaught of progressivism…
It’s Time to Revive Local Arts
Commentary For the first time in my life, I attended a symphonic concert that dispensed with the new composition right before the intermission. It is usually placed there to trap the audience that would otherwise come late or leave early to miss it. Nothing against new music, but let’s just say that it has not…

Commentary A hullabaloo over a digital dollar first emerged in 2019 when the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) launched its digital yuan. Speculation arose that unless the United States responded in kind, China’s yuan would soon surpass the dollar as the world’s premier reserve currency. The speculation was pointless. There is much more to a…
Canada May Avoid Official ‘Recession’ but Comparative Living Standards Continue to Fall
Commentary The late U.S. president Ronald Reagan famously said in the 1980 election that “Recession is when your neighbour loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours. And recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his.” He went on to win the presidency in large measure because Americans wanted a return to economic prosperity. This…
