Planned Parenthood of Maryland has exposed its own hypocrisy, on the eve of the annual March for Life in Washington, no less. Because its members and fawning politicians cherish human life so much, the tax-subsidized organization Tweeted this photo and link… Really. The link takes willing readers to the New York Times, and a heart-warming story by Denise Grady about how in-the-womb surgery…

Evidently, Arizona Senator Jeff Flake has decided to make as much absurdist noise as possible before he retires with the U.S. Constitution in tatters in his wake, and his life-long, taxpayer-paid pension in hand. On the January 14 edition of ABC’s “This Week,” Flake claimed that Donald Trump’s calling out of the dinosaur media as “Fake News” was -- get this -- Stalinesque. “You can talk about…

It's a new progressive fashion: a push for a “Universal Basic Income” (UBI) in America. Like many leftist concepts, it sounds new, but the idea has actually been floating around the US since the 1960s. And, like a bad Christmas sweater, regardless of how old and dusty it is, the concept is being pulled out once more, and repackaged as “new” -- a re-gift that can save the world. In fact, the…

Remember the old film cliché of the hero driving through a southern town and being pulled over by a corrupt cop who says, “Boah! You know what town this is? We don’t drive like that here!” Subsequently, the cop demands a payoff, and the hero gets to continue on his heroic way. Sometimes. The setting might be farther north, but drivers from outside Leonia, New Jersey who use city streets as…

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh appears to miss a lot of memos. Last year, he held a press conference to claim that organizers of a Free Speech Rally to be held a few days later on the Boston Common hadn’t actually filed for a permit. In fact, they had, and he could have checked before calling the press to embarrass himself. He also said that he didn’t know who the organizers were, then, a few seconds…

There’s a darkness in the West, especially when it comes to collectivist health systems, moral and ethical decay, and the destruction of the Hippocratic Oath. A case in point has arisen which whispers of this anti-human mentality, and which joins in a chorus of stories and admissions from places like the UK, Canada, and the U.S. telling us to be very aware that state-run health care requires the…

Many Americans, and some from beyond the US, such as collectivist George Soros, are angry that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Thursday dropped its so-called “Net Neutrality” rule over Internet Service Providers (ISPs), thus allowing providers to ask big companies that use more bandwidth to pay more for faster service. Such an alien concept.  Imagine, people being allowed by the…

Atlanta’s government is really getting into the Christmas spirit this year. Thanks to Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and Georgia State University Police Chief Joseph “Mickey” Spillane, taxpayers can revel in the warm, charitable glow -- that wonderful sight of kindness in action -- as food is literally taken from the hands of the hungry. Thanks to Baylen Lennekin, of Reason, and a video posted a few…

People such as John Locke and Thomas Jefferson explained that “justified” governments are supposed to protect life, liberty (freedom of consensual interaction), and property ownership (the pursuit of happiness). The idea is that you have a right to your life, to live and interact peacefully, and to own that which you earn and use to support your life. Likewise, it is understood that when you ask…

A recent move by President Trump to “scale back” two stunningly vast federal land grabs conducted by his predecessors has hit the news, and, as do so many of the small nibbles Trump makes in the ever metastasizing, always omnivorous federal cancer, the action puts ethically-minded people in a quandary. Following up on an April executive order to have Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke review 27 “…
