Tucker Carlson is likely running for President of the United States.
It pains me to say that, because he is a truly disgusting human being, and you and I will be tarred with the same brush as he will be. He used to be one of "us," if a bit on the boisterous side. And to our credit, as if that were enough, the guy was and remains deviously brilliant.
I don't expect Tucker to get a ton of votes, but he certainly can get enough to change the outcome of a presidential race should he decide to pop into the race. He does have almost 18 million followers

AOC shrugs off anything said by leftists in the period before, say, yesterday as irrelevant to judging their suitability for positions of authority.
Because, you know, "Woke One was crazy." As if people being crazy a year or five ago is no big deal.
Being crazy is, in fact, a big deal. It's not the same thing as being wrong. Everybody gets it wrong, even if they are smart and exercise good judgment. As long as they acknowledge their mistakes, explain why they made them, and are willing to learn, making a mistake and acknowledging it can actually be a good thing.
You want people who can learn, and we

It has become clear that the Democrats hate America to the point where they are willing to destroy her rather than give up their Trump hatred. One has only to look at the candidates and representatives they embrace to see that this is so. Mamdani has begun a cascade of communists in American politics. The invasion is underway.
Trump hatred has so blinded Democrats’ sensibilities, that they have become parasites in the American bloodstream that will destroy the host rather than openly declare that they will not embrace murder and communism and an Islamic caliphate.
Over the last couple of years, especially in places like Seattle, Los Angeles, or Canada, Democrats

If the sociology of education were a bona fide academic field, the saga of Jason Arday would provide material for innumerable Ph.D.s. Cambridge University hired Arday to teach the subject. John has follwed the Arday saga in posts here and here.
The Cambidge dons who hired Arday somehow overlooked the indicia of fraud that permeate his thesis and his account of himself. He is a fraud of which Europe has not seen the likes since the heyday of George Psalmanazar in the eighteenth century. However, the credulity of the Cambridge dons is much funnier than that of Psalmanazar’s audience or, more recently, that on which Carlos Castaneda played in

A climber known for setting speed records in Yosemite National Park has died in a climbing accident in California.
Jake Whisenant, 30, of Mammoth Lakes, California, died Aug. 3, according to the Tulare County Sheriff’s Office Coroner Unit.
The sheriff’s office website lists the cause of death as “accident,” and officials have not released additional details. Tulare County includes Sequoia National Park and the southern Sierra Nevada. Bailee Moore, who described Whisenant as her lifelong friend, told NBC News on Monday that he died in a fall while he was climbing and that the details surrounding the fall are still being investigated.
She called his death an “unimaginable loss.”

There was a joke made years ago about how “the children yearn for the mines,” because while they’re no longer de facto forced to dig for coal in Appalachia and the Northeast (due to their impoverished circumstances), they’re drawn to the mines nonetheless—the Minecraft video game was (and still is) wildly popular.
Well, on a similar note, leftist women yearn for subjugation. No external factor is forcing them into roles of diminished status, but they just can’t help being drawn to what is not good for them (abortion, open relationships, hook-ups, transgenderism, etc.), and placing themselves under a yoke. This is more of a

A Florida swimmer had her arm ripped off by a 10-foot alligator — a vicious attack she wound up surviving thanks to a fast-acting boater who scared the beast away.
The woman was on a paddleboard in the Silver River in north-central Florida when the gator grabbed her by the arm and pulled her underwater, despite her trying to push it away with her paddle, FOX35 reported.
Miraculously, John Gamache was eating lunch on his boat and, upon hearing the woman’s family’s cries for help, he sped toward the group. “I looked just upriver from us a couple hundred feet and saw an alligator head way above the water and going full

It's hard for me to believe that the Democrats might run Kamala Harris for president again after her campaign was such a disaster in 2024.
Not only did President Donald Trump clean her clock, even getting more of the popular vote, but he also beat her in all the swing states. Plus she spent and lost a ton of money in a futile cause, by some estimates, $1.5 billion over the course of an abbreviated campaign.
Polls have her up for 2028, though, so I'm all in for it. That should be great fun to watch her go down in flames again. It does sound like she's gearing up

On July 16, 1988, Florence Griffith-Joyner sprinted 100 meters in 10.49 seconds at the U.S. Olympic Trials in Indianapolis. Nearly four decades later, no woman has run faster, and her world record still stands.
Her 200-meter record, set at the Seoul Olympics later that year, has also stood for almost forty years.
Flo-Jo remains the fastest woman who has ever lived.
Yet her 100-meter record has repeatedly been surpassed by American high school boys.
The current U.S. high school boys’ record is 9.92 seconds, set in 2025 and more than half a second faster. Many boys have run faster than Flo-Jo’s legendary mark, and each year more join that list.

Rush Limbaugh had a saying to explain how he would drive a point home about the left that perfectly applies to what we’re seeing in the WNBA today. He said that sometimes you have to illustrate the absurd through absurdity.
In other words, you have to take the left’s premise to its ultimate conclusion to more fully see just how messed up it is.
That would be a perfect description of how the WNBA is totally blowing its current men-in-women's-sports crisis.
My colleagues David Manney and Robert Spencer both wrote separate stories about this trend, which is getting increasingly absurd: We now have former NBA stars declaring their intent

Jason Arday, the sociologist who made history as Cambridge University's youngest Black professor, has resigned from the university after weeks of mounting accusations of plagiarism and fabrications in his biography.
Arday, who joined Cambridge in 2023 at the age of 37, became one of Britain's most high-profile academics after sharing an extraordinary life story. He has said he is autistic and dyslexic, and that he did not speak until he was 11 and could not read or write until he was 18.
But following the accusations and scrutiny, Arday resigned from his position on Wednesday.
"The relentless accusations, speculation and public commentary have taken a profound

There is a pattern that repeats with disturbing regularity: when left-wing or socialist policies dominate power, crises not only arrive — they worsen, are managed through ideology, and end up costing lives, prosperity, and social cohesion. This is not an accident. It is the result of a worldview that prioritizes narrative, social engineering, and political control over effectiveness, prevention, and reality. The 2008 financial crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, uncontrolled mass immigration, and energy failures are clear examples. The United States is not immune: what Europe and Spain have suffered with particular intensity offers a direct warning for America.
The 2008 crisis was global, originating in the American financial system,
