The Point

While Senator Warren wants to turn post offices into socialist banks and Democrats demand that the Post Office buy useless green mail trucks, rank and file postal carriers can’t even deliver the mail without getting mugged. Between 2018 and 2021, robberies of mail carriers more than tripled, and robberies involving a gun more than quadrupled, […]

How do you solve a problem like George Floyd Square? They’ve tried burning it all down and by ‘they’, I mean the BLM mob. “I have not fully recovered from that time and I know that we as a community have not fully recovered from that time. I don’t know when we will. I do know […]

The party of the youth is looking rather old these days. Let’s remember that Brezhnev was only 75 when he died. That would make him one of the youngest Democrat leaders. Speaking of elderly Communists, after initially dismissing the idea of another run, Bernie’s back.  Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has “not ruled out” a bid […]

People are complaining about this provision, but I don’t see the problem. What’s the worst that could happen: a devastating virus that kills millions and shuts down the world economy? The Wuhan Institute of Virology has the right to ask a partnering lab in the U.S. to destroy all records of their work, according to a […]

Piers Morgan is a professional media troll. Seriously, it’s how he makes his living.  There was a time that Americans didn’t know who Morgan was. And he drove himself into the culture wars, not because he gives a damn about them, but because he feeds off attention the way that flies feed on fecal matter. […]

Any of us who have flown during the pandemic age have probably experienced it or heard it secondhand. “Sir, I’m not going to tell you again. Pull your mask up now.” Masks are about power. And that’s why Biden, after personally saying people could do what they want, will be fighting the ruling tearing down […]

It might have just been cheaper to set a stack of hundred dollar bills a thousand feet high on fire. At least a little bit cheaper and a lot more entertaining. CNN+, a streaming service with the bold idea that in a marketplace already overloaded with services and apps, people would pay $6 a month. […]

The Podesta brothers used to be the big stinky cheeses of Democrat politics. While John Podesta reigned as Hillary’s campaign chair, Tony Podesta nailed down the lobbying contracts through the Podesta Group. These days, John heads up the Center for American Progress while Tony Podesta had a bit of a fall. Tony Podesta was in […]

Mayor Eric Adams keeps talking up metal detectors for the New York City subway. It’s a solution that he has to know won’t work. “New Yorkers are going to feel safe knowing that when they swipe their MetroCards that we’re doing some type of check to make sure people are not carrying weapons on our […]

We really need to do something about these guns flying off the shelf and committing crimes. Not to mention the cars who keep committing robberies and drive-by shootings and the phones that keep hacking themselves. If only all this technology didn’t exist, there would be peace in Los Angeles. Thirty-four people were shot in Los […]

It’s not normal for half of the country to independently create a policy for fighting a crisis. But we don’t live in normal times, do we?  Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, along with 25 other Republican governors, on Tuesday announced the creation of the American Governors’ Border Strike Force. All the governors have put out press […]

Hey, when your bro got to the White House and became fantastically wealthy by screaming “racism” non-stop, it’s bound to create some Mau-Mauing envy. Michelle Obama’s brother and his wife filed a lawsuit alleging racial bias at a Milwaukee private school, saying that when they raised concerns, the school retaliated by expelling their sons. Craig […]

Republicans tend not to believe that Biden will run again. So do a lot of other people. Except that Biden has repeatedly made it clear that, no matter how implausible it may seem, he will run again. Even if he has to crawl to run. President Biden has told former President Obama that he is planning to […]

Academia is its own beast and assuming that what goes at a college will protect Fortune 500 employees is unrealistic. That said there’s a precedent here and it’s an important one. Forcing people to use male pronouns for women or vice versa has been an important tool for ideological compliance.  The “you shall comply” familiar […]

Social media troll Taylor Lorenz, fresh off playing the victim, decided to show her value to the Washington Post by doxxing the Jewish woman behind the Libs of Tik Tok account. The opening paragraph of this national embarassment begins with, “A popular Twitter account has morphed into a social media phenomenon, spreading anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment and shaping […]

Twitter is a really important forum for the culture war. And Elon Musk has figured out a way to profit from panicking the elite into frantically trying to save Twitter from free speech. But is the social media platform really worth anything? Twitter said on Thursday that its revenue grew more slowly than analysts had […]

Boycotts used to be a major conservative tool. Do they still work? Not as well, but they can work. Big Tech’s biggest vulnerability is the need to project an impossible perpetual motion machine of constant growth. What happens when that illusion of perpetual growth is challenged? Then the bottom suddenly drops out. Netflix reported its first […]

Being woke is very exhausting. Mining everything for racial and social justice outrages means making dumb mistakes and then having to invent even dumber new premises to justify them. Like black blackface. This week, an ASU instructor, and a librarian, who hold themselves out as being Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) gurus, falsely accused a […]

The religion of peace continues its track record of having a peaceful Ramadan. Swedish police said they fired warning shots during a riot in an eastern city to disperse protesters angry about demonstrations over the past several days by a Danish anti-Islam group in Sweden. Three people were slightly injured during the clashes. A crowd […]

It’s sad when friends fight. Also entirely deserved. Pakistan’s intel people and regime are the major backers of the Taliban. They also helped shield Al Qaeda and other Taliban allies. But there are the “good Taliban” in Afghanistan and the “bad Taliban” in Afghanistan. Like most Islamist regimes, the Pakis are enthusiastic about Jihad… somewhere […]

An important piece of subtext for the radical COVID control policies we’re seeing on display in Shanghai and elsewhere in Communist China. China’s leaders have said that the country, unlike most of the rest of the world, cannot afford to live with the virus because it has a large and vulnerable aging population.  I’ve explored […]

The debate about the homeless crisis is really a debate about the nature of homelessness which, as facts have repeatedly shown, is a case of mentally ill and drug-addicted vagrants whose presence on the streets has been enabled by the homeless-industrial complex. Despite that most of the LA mayoral candidates promise to fix the homeless […]

With gas prices soaring and the Biden administration getting negative publicity and scoring judicial backlash for blocking drilling, the radicals are trying to poison what they can’t block outright. After Biden’s takeover of BLM, (Bureau of Land Management), it’s still committed to blocking drilling, while formally appearing to authorize it. That means the royalty rate […]

Deep thoughts. America has inflated away $2.7 trillion of its national debt in the 14 months since President Biden took office. Why it matters: If you want to find a silver lining in the latest inflation data, look to that fact that despite all his new spending programs, Biden has presided over a national debt that […]

Remember the VA waiting list scandals under Obama. They’re back under his veep. Or more accurately they never really left.  Biden decided to appoint Denis McDonough, an Obama aide, to head Veteran Affairs and things are going well. Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough acknowledged that he is “frustrated” with inconsistency in how medical appointment wait time data is […]
