In a move that reflects not only the extent to which Postmodern collectivists have succeeded in using linguistic legerdemain to push their political goals but also indicates how extensive even a “conservative” state’s “social welfare” bureaucracy already has grown, the House and Senate of Kansas have overridden Democrat Governor Laura Kelley’s April 20 veto of SB 180, a bill that explicitly…
Last week saw the North Dakota House and Senate pass a bill that some Americans might view as both an indicator of how far Cultural Marxism has infiltrated American politics and culture, and how difficult it is to run any political system without pitting portions of the culture against each other.
As KFYR’s Joel Crane reports, the legislators have sent to Governor Doug Burgum (R), HB 1522…
In a move that could have ripple effects across the country, the Delphic bureaucracy called the California Air Resources Board (CARB – how quaint) announced Friday that it will impose a ban on the sale of diesel-powered trucks after 2036 and impose a “zero emissions” mandate on all trucks starting in 2042.
One wonders if the state government will have chased away the entire population by that…
Is it nostalgia? Perhaps a whimsical yearning for 1990 and the delight of dancing the “Electric Slide”? Is it a call-out to Hollywood, to hire her for a film that might be titled, “Granholm 2: Electric Boogaloo”?
Or is it hubristic flippancy and profligacy, crass central planning, exhibited by an oft-snarky bureaucrat, occupying a Constitution-insulting office that bleeds us and directs our…
The name "Cato" retains a special place in Roman and early U.S. history. In antiquity, Marcus Porcius Cato was a Roman senator, named after his conservative grandfather in the last century before the birth of Christ, and he tried to oppose Caesar’s rise to centralized power.
In America, Cato was the name of a runaway slave who, in 1785, fled from captivity in Rhode Island to Massachusetts, where…
Boston, Massachusetts, is known as the birthplace of the American Revolution. But, for many decades, it also has been known as one of the centers for American collectivism, pushing socialist legislation, promoting leftist politicians, and spreading collectivist ideology around the nation and the world.
Hewing to that recent “tradition,” a group of vandals just attacked 43 SUVs in Boston’s ritzy…
Many conservative commentators criticized Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash) for her so-called “stereotypical” (though not necessarily wrong) “they pick the food we eat” praise of immigrants on April 19 before the House Judiciary Committee. But this writer has yet to see conservatives cite her for something else she said in her appearance – something dangerously erroneous that…
Someone at MSNBC must have thought that calling Joy Reid’s weeknight wonderland of wokeism “The Reidout” would be pithy and apt. But, given her propensity for hyperbolic outbursts, “The Freakout” might be a better name.
On the Friday edition of her program, mere hours after an unnamed majority of U.S. Supreme Court Justices gave their okay to a January FDA move to allow retail pharmacies…
While the political world swirls and politicians bicker about how best to mess with our lives, stories of real life and real dedication abound, and this heartening account from Alaska helps remind us of the deep, abiding connections we can have with animals, and how loyal, affectionate, and courageous they can be.
Cleveland.com’s Robert Higgs offers the first part of this amazing connection,…
In a ruling that might shock observers not only for its disconnection from the state constitution, but also for its dismissal of free association, a California judge has found a San Jose church guilty of violating 2020 Santa Clara County lockdown edicts and has ordered the house of worship to pay the government $1.2 million in fines for holding maskless services.
Susannah Luthi reports for…
