So, a late-night ballot drop in Los Angeles appears to have changed the dynamics of the midterm election. But, hey, the state might be counting for days or weeks yet, so let’s not jump to conclusions, right? Sure, Florida can count 10 million ballots in one day and evening, as can many other states and nations, and Florida has mail balloting, too, but California Democrats say that the reason it takes the erstwhile Golden State so long to tally its votes is because they want to make sure every vote is counted. It’s about “our democracy,” you see. Well, they want to make sure every illegal ballot is counted, that is for sure.

Liberals like to denounce the rest of us as racists, but the truth is that they are the ones who are obsessed with race. This is a classic example: “BBC apologises for misquoting Farage on Nowak murder.” The BBC has apologised to Nigel Farage after one of its presenters misquoted his comments about the killing of Henry Nowak. During Tuesday’s Newsnight programme, Matt Chorley, the presenter, said that the Reform UK leader had told the public to respond to the murder with “white cold rage”, when he had said “pure cold rage”. Reform argued that this implied a racial element to what Mr Farage had said and changed his meaning. Of course it did.

When you are passing judgments on individuals regarding their character, it is not right to judge them based on their immutable characteristics as part of a group. We judge individuals based on who they are and what they do. On the other hand, when you are evaluating a group, it's just as wrong to disaggregate it into individual atoms and claim that there are no group characteristics that are relevant to making a judgment. That's why it is simultaneously true that individuals who are part of some group may be good, and the group as a whole is still harmful. When I meet a liberal, for instance,

While raising an LGBT pride flag over the state capitol building, Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers said he plans to defy a Supreme Court ruling on so-called “conversion therapy.” On Monday, the Democratic governor shared his support for protecting “trans kids” and, in particular, keeping on the books a regulation that effectively bans counselors from assisting gender-confused and same-sex attracted kids. “Let me be clear: I have no intention of repealing the ban on outdated and dangerous practice of conversion therapy on kids, period, end of story, and no questions,” he said to applause. The rule did not pass through the legislature after committee hearings, mark-ups, and open debate.

CBS News has fired Scott Pelley. The new regime at CBS News is praising Pelley, probably disingenuously: [New CBS News head Bari] Weiss nevertheless praised Pelley’s body of work and highlighted several of his recent reports for “60 Minutes.” “That unfortunate outcome does not discount from the amazing contributions and work that Scott Pelley has done for CBS and for ‘60 Minutes’ over the course of his career,” Weiss said. *** CBS News president Tom Cibrowski echoed Weiss’s remarks, calling Pelley “an integral part of ‘60 Minutes,’ the ‘CBS Evening News’ and this entire news organization for decades.” “His incredible body of work … will always be part of the history of CBS News,”

The Democrat Party's civil war over Graham Platner is getting messier by the day, and leave it to Jessica Tarlov to pick the wrong side. While prominent Democrats are tripping over each other to distance themselves from Platner, the Fox News contributor spent a chunk of Monday's America's Newsroom doing the exact opposite. She went on the defensive, and it was not pretty. I mean, come on, even Sen. Cory Booker is admitting that he “has concerns” about Platner. “That guy has questions to answer,” he said. “And that’s what campaigns are for.” Tarlov, however, went into a full-throttle defense, complete with deflection and whataboutism. “There are Democrats who have concerns,

Democrats have shed oceans of crocodile tears over the plight of the average American, struggling to afford gasoline in the wake of “Trump’s war” against Iran. Never mentioned, of course, is the fact that for more than 20 years, Democrats have been doing all they can to raise, not lower, the price of oil. As with so many issues, Democrats rely on the rest of us suffering from memory loss. So here is a quick refresher: the price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil from 1946 through May 2026. The last price recorded on the chart ($97.63, at the moment it is $87.36) is lower than peak prices

The Bidens want to restore Joe Biden’s legacy after his disastrous presidency and his Hindenburg-style campaign collapse, and phase one is Jill Biden’s forthcoming memoir. The next step will be Joe Biden’s inevitable presidential memoir, which is sure to have quite a few doozies in it, but for now, we have Jill’s, and if she thought her book would “set the record straight” and the Democrat Party would be thrilled, well, that’s not what’s happening at all. Instead, it's setting the Democrat Party on fire — and the people most enraged are the ones who spent years covering for Joe Biden. According to Axios, several former Biden aides, including

Chess champ Magnus Carlsen, 32, lost to 19-year-old Hans Niemann at the 2022 Sinquefield Cup, sparking Carlsen’s cheating claims. Niemann, who admitted to prior online cheating, faced a wild “anal beads” theory for his win that went viral. Niemann’s $100 million defamation lawsuit against Carlsen and Chess.com was dismissed, leading to a confidential settlement. In September of 2022, Magnus Carlsen had won 53 consecutive classical chess matches.Then, he sat down across from Hans Niemann. Carlsen, then 32 and a five-time World Championship, was widely considered the greatest player in the millennium-and-a-half history of the sport. The Norwegian had an Elo rating — a system that calculates a player’s relative skill level —

We often hear and read about men brutalizing women, and it is a national disgrace that so many women live their lives in terror. I’ve written many times about the battering situations I came across as a police officer in NYC. But there’s another type of battering I’ve witnessed, albeit not nearly as often: women brutalizing men. While working a tour in Brooklyn one night, my partner and I were summoned to an apartment to handle an assault in progress. When we arrived and climbed a few flights of stairs, we heard moaning sounds coming from behind an open door of one of the rooms. Other occupants

Are antifa members civilized human beings entitled to human rights and civil discourse, or are they gutterally growling wild animals? Get a load of what they were caught doing in New Jersey: (X) That's what hogs or bears or raccoons do; they empty and dump garbage bags, wherever they find them, in their case, for practical reasons: to find the best pickins.' Then they crap all over the place, or make whoopee together inside the clanking cans, entirely fulfilling their animal nature, and leaving the rest of us a huge mess. Antifa, on the other hand just dumps the trash for its own sake, supposedly because

Historically, antisemitism was endemic in American medicine in the early to mid-20th century, with quotas on Jewish students and residency trainees until the 1960s. But in 2023, antisemitic incidents dramatically increased, with a 140% increase from 2022 and the highest since data collection began in 1979. A short sampling of antisemitic acts include: Antisemitic slogans at the UCLA Geffen School of Medicine, Antisemitic graffiti at the UCSF Cancer Center, Jewish medical students’ exposure to demonization of Israel diatribes and rationalizing terrorism; Faculty, including a professor of medicine at UCSF, posting antisemitic tropes and derogatory comments about Jewish health-care professionals.
