Commentary The director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO) reassures us that WHO’s “pandemic accord” (or “treaty”) won’t reduce the sovereignty of WHO’s Member States. WHO trusts that these words will serve as a distraction from reality. Those driving the perpetual health emergency agenda are planning to give WHO more power, and States less. This…
Ukraine and Allies Must Avoid Pyrrhic Victories
Commentary The Western press is highly excited about the prospects of a counteroffensive against Russian forces occupying Ukraine. “Ukraine faces a ticking clock,” blared a New York Times headline. “It is now battered Ukraine’s turn for an offensive,” cheered the Financial Times. “The coming battle should aim to persuade Moscow of the futility of its…

Commentary Richard Dreyfuss criticized the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ new Oscar rules in, as they say, no uncertain terms. The answer to my title question, however, is almost certainly “no bloody way”—even though Dreyfuss is an Oscar-winner himself and starred in several of the most financially successful films of all time. The…

Commentary There are several features of the pandemic policy response that still astonish me. It does not surprise me that bureaucrats couldn’t suppress, control, much less eradicate, a respiratory virus by scrapping the Bill of Rights. What I cannot get over is all the ways that the response ended up achieving the opposite of what…
Putting Up Their Happiness as Collateral for Their Car Loans
Commentary As a university professor, one of the greatest rewards is mentoring students to realize the American Dream by pursuing a life aimed at unlocking their full human potential. Doing so requires reflection upon what it means to be human and, from there, grasping why the key to happiness is so counterintuitive: we fill ourselves…

Commentary Canada has become a country that harbours a higher level of tolerance for Chinese communism than it does for American conservatism. That’s a conclusion that’s easy to draw from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission’s (CRTC) May 3 decision to act swiftly on a complaint from the LGBTQ2 advocacy group, Egale, which has asked…

Commentary As an investor, it’s very easy to look at the current environment and shake one’s head. There’s a tremendous amount of headwinds. Given the volumes of headlines involving inflation, the debt ceiling, incompetence in Washington, geopolitical risks, China, etc., some investors may just give up and stash away their cash.

Commentary Disney higher-ups have been found admitting to indoctrinating children in radical sexual and gender ideology. The Carhartt work clothes company required its more than 3,000 employees to be vaccinated for COVID-19, despite conceding that “we are aware some of our associates do not support this policy.” Keurig Dr Pepper Inc., the third-largest soft drink…
Literary Lineage in Arkansas
Commentary There’s a simple truth about human nature that liberalism denies, that it rejects in principle. The truth is this: A person can’t believe his life in the present has very much meaning if he doesn’t believe in a meaningful past. If there’s no plot to history, if the generations that preceded him don’t form…
Why I Have Given Up on Trumpism Revisited
Commentary Presumably, the man in the White House can afford the very best publicists and political strategists. Or maybe it’s just that he can afford the most expensive lieutenants, who aren’t necessarily the best. I wonder about that because the Biden conglomerate has made “MAGA,” Donald Trump’s signature acronym and battle cry, the center of…
