4+ hour, 3+ min ago (554+ words) America's vaunted education system has morphed into a failing public-school maze and a college-debt trap'problems born of policy choices that now block a generation's path forward. What could this man be talking about? He is so yesterday. Has he not read about the scandal that American public school (i.e., government, and therefore socialist) education is today? The statistics could fill half a dozen columns or more. Here are three key findings from the Manhattan Institute, quoting the National Assessment of Educational Progress: Student proficiency levels have stagnated or declined since the early 1990s, with fourth- and eighth-grade reading proficiency at an average of 3031%. Math proficiency for both grades peaked in 2013 (42% for fourth grade and 35% for eighth grade) but has declined to 39% (fourth grade) and 28% (eighth grade). Urban districts such as New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles have consistently shown low proficiency…...

4+ hour, 4+ min ago (820+ words) Trump's Ukraine plan mirrors Kissinger's Vietnam retreat'an offer that lets the invader stay put and leaves a nation's future to the mercy of its aggressor. But Lincoln did not show the white feather and abandon the cause of Union without slavery. Lincoln held firm for what was right. Much later, Henry Kissinger would not. On his own initiative, Kissinger secretly set up the United States to lose the Vietnam War through a negotiated peace agreement, capitulating to Hanoi's illegal aggression against South Vietnam. On January 9, 1971, Kissinger proposed to the Russians that: "What if the U.S. were to commit to withdraw all of its troops by some particular deadline, of which they would inform the Vietnamese? At the same time, the Americans could refrain from demanding a reciprocal withdrawal of North Vietnamese troops from South Vietnam, since that would be clearly unacceptable…...

13+ hour, 15+ min ago (487+ words) A Clinton-appointed federal judge threw out the criminal cases against James Comey and Letitia James on Monday, not on the merits, but because she concluded the prosecutor handling the cases was unlawfully appointed. In her opinion, Judge Cameron McGowan Currie ruled that Lindsey Halligan, who Trump named as the interim US attorney for the eastern district of Virginia in September, had "no lawful authority to present the indictments" against the former FBI director and New York attorney general. The decision, which will likely be appealed, is a temporary win for Comey and James, who were both criminally charged last month'Comey for lying to Congress, and James for mortgage fraud." There is compelling evidence that Comey made false statements to Congress five years ago and obstructed a Senate investigation into the Bureau's corrupt Crossfire Hurricane. Likewise, there is compelling evidence James…...

16+ hour, 8+ min ago (982+ words) The Department of War announced Monday that it has launched an official review into allegations of misconduct against Senator Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.), a retired U.S. Navy captain. The review will be conducted "in accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. " 688, and could result in court-martial proceedings," the DoW said. This shocking development comes after Kelly and five other Democrat lawmakers with military and intelligence backgrounds released a short video advising members of the military and intelligence community to disobey their commander-in-chief's orders if they believe they are "illegal." The DoW reminded servicemembers in a statement Monday that "they have a legal obligation under the UCMJ to obey lawful orders and that orders are presumed to be lawful." In a statement Monday, Kelly dismissed the review as an attempt to intimidate him and declared that he would "not be silenced by…...

22+ hour, 25+ min ago (373+ words) President Donald Trump's initiative to eliminate government waste and fraud through a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has quietly disbanded with a full 8 months still left on its charter. Earlier this month when Reuters asked Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor about the status of DOGE, Kupor replied, "That doesn't exist." Representative Tim Burchett (R-TN) said that Elon Musk, who headed up the DOGE effort, was pushed out Washington D.C. because he was getting too close to exposing corrupt officials who are enriching themselves through dark money non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Elon Musk's DOGE team was quietly dissolved even though it still had eight months left on its mandate to cut excessive regulations and federal spending. " Shadow of Ezra (@ShadowofEzra) November 23, 2025 Burchett told Benny Johnson, "NGO money pours into Washington and ends up in politicians' pockets as dark money." DOGE had…...

1+ day, 4+ hour ago (691+ words) Mamdani's narrow win alarms many New Yorkers who fear his radical agenda, but state and federal checks'and energized voters'could still blunt his most extreme plans. Zohran Mamdani may have eked out his victory in New York City's mayoral contest'prompting a literal champagne socialist celebration in some fancy restaurants'but a lot of New Yorkers are far from happy about it. While Mamdani fell short of the two-thirds majority typical in other mayoral races, he earned his 50% in a much larger electorate than usual. Andrew Cuomo, who lost by 9 points after running a campaign that made the Titanic seem like masterful seamanship, lost with more votes in raw numbers than those with which the previous mayor, Eric Adams, won his seat. It's now time to think about restraining the worst damage from the new resident of Gracie Mansion, a guy who unironically…...

1+ day, 4+ hour ago (272+ words) Trump's court may have felled Roe, but the fight over Obergefell'and the future of natural marriage'still hinges on timing, culture, and the next wave of justices. Another decision must be revisited, reviewed, and reversed, too: Obergefell v. Hodges. She took a righteous stand against sexual degeneracy and legal anarchy, and she deserves justice in a court of law. I hoped for the best for Davis and Liberty Counsel in their suit. On a First Amendment basis alone, Davis should not have been persecuted because she would not issue a fake marriage license to two men. When the Supreme Court ordered the plaintiffs to provide a response to Davis's appeal, I suspected that they would take the case. Sadly, the court has rejected her appeal, not just to waive the judgment imposed on her, but also her broader attempt to overturn the…...

1+ day, 4+ hour ago (1732+ words) Democrats now celebrate the very nullificationist tactics they once decried, embracing a neo-Confederate defiance of federal authority to undermine a president they despise. Is Jeff Davis the Model? Who is the real, or fictional, inspiration for the new insurrectionary wing of the Democrat Party? The fictitious Hollywood insurrectionist, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, "James Mattoon Scott" (Burt Lancaster), who in the 1964 film Seven Days in May attempted to overthrow the'presidency? Or perhaps Jefferson Davis? He ultimately ordered the attack by South Carolina state forces against the federal garrison at Fort Sumter, which ignited the Civil War. Or is the better inspiration the "Stand in the Schoolhouse Door?" Alabama Governor George Wallace likewise vowed to use his state's law enforcement to nullify a federal law. Yet how odd that the left, which had lectured us so often about a…...
