New Jersey politicians aren’t helping reform its image as an unattractive place to live or work. In January, I reported on the fact that the “Garden State” had the highest “flight” rate of any in the US. This followed on the heels of reports in July of last year that the government of NJ had voted in favor of literally funding press outlets, which is otherwise known as state-backed propaganda.…
Liz Warren has done it again.
The fake-as-a-three-dollar-bill collectivist Massachusetts Senator who invited criticism and opprobrium for claiming she was a “Native American” on a job application for Harvard, and then received more criticism for years of resistance to requests for her to back it up... The woman who, when she did finally take a blood test, was shown to be 1/1024th connected to a…
Remember when medicine wasn’t used as a political lever or as cover for politicians issuing mandates and dictates?
Admittedly, that was a long time ago, so you’d have to have a darn good memory, but it’s quite clear, looking at the alarmist and regulation-promoting “Lancet” report called “The Global Syndemic of Obesity, Undernutrition, and Climate Change” that busybodies are champing at the…
The hallowed and deservedly respected “Twilight Zone” is coming back. But to look at recent events surrounding the oafishly misanthropic, hopelessly confused VA Governor, Ralph Northam makes one wonder if, perhaps, we haven’t been living in The Zone all along.
The events, revelations, and exposure of political and journalistic shallowness surrounding this man are so numerous, one could…
Thomas Jefferson famously said that the “natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground.” So it’s nice to see a good story, where, at least superficially, government is pulling back…
Superficially.
According to KIRO7.com, on January 31, the Washington State Department of Ecology announced that it would no longer require auto emissions tests in most counties on…
Get ready.
The state of Oregon could be the first in US history to require all parents of newborns to submit to universal home visits by agents of the state.
No warrants. No due process.
Paula Bolyard reports for PJ Media:
Senate Bill 526, introduced this month in the Oregon Legislative Assembly as part of (Governor Kate) Brown's budget, orders the Oregon Health Authority to 'study…
What’s wrong with an opinion?
In his 19th Century book, “On Liberty”, famous Utilitarian philosopher John Stuart Mill explained that society and the state should leave speech alone. Even incorrect opinions were valuable, he argued, because they allowed people to check and perfect their own arguments.
Unfortunately, numerous recent articles indicate that, just as many of us have been saying…
Reason’s Christian Britschgi just offered us a glimpse at retrograde economics.
It’s happening – no surprise -- in Oregon, where, thanks to leftist politicians, the State Senate is hearing a bill that will implement rent control state-wide.
Which raises a simple question: Don’t these people bother glancing at the rules of economics and the track record of price controls?
The bill is…
When are eclectic dining tastes not signs of “diverse” interests?
When a Social Justice Warrior says so, and that’s that.
The College Fix recently reported that Sara Kay, a grad student in the field of “Food Services” at New York University, just penned an article for Eater based on her “research” into the use of the word “authentic” when reviewers described dining establishments. And, using…
Leave it to Liz “Faux-a-hontas” Warren to get fundamental facts about virtually anything embarrassingly wrong.
Evidently not satisfied by making a fool of herself for claiming to be an American Indian when applying for a plum position at Harvard, then for years resisting calls to prove it, only to finally release a blood test that showed she had less “ancient American” heritage (heritage…
