Chuck Norris, 1940-2026

Chuck Norris, who admittedly was shy and not athletic and who wound up transforming himself into a six-time world karate champion and one of Hollywood’s most unlikely action stars, died on March 19 in Hawaii after a sudden medical emergency. He was 86, a mere nine days past his birthday, which he had marked by […]

For the Left, some lives are apparently more valuable than others

Another young woman was murdered, allegedly by an illegal immigrant released into the country under the Biden administration. If the name Sheridan Gorman doesn’t sound familiar to you, it’s probably because you’ve been watching left-wing propaganda outlets such as CNN or MS Now. The 18-year-old Loyola University student was senselessly gunned down in Chicago, shot […]

Does Hungary’s opposition have Orban on the ropes?

Political messaging is often trite or meaningless, but in the case of the Hungarian parliamentary elections, two of the contenders’ slogans are actually quite revealing. Fidesz, the ruling conservative party led by Prime Minister Viktor Orban, is a biztos valasztas — “the safe choice.” Tisza, a relatively new political movement led by the young and […]

The Democrats’ 2028 balancing act: Can they find a nominee, or even a nominating process, that brings the party together?

An interesting, if extremely early, poll of New Hampshire Democrats dropped recently that may scramble assumptions about the 2028 presidential race. The survey by St. Anslem College found former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg in the lead with 29% of the vote, nearly double the share claimed by Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA). Former Vice President Kamala […]

The cover-up is worse than the crime: One woman’s experience with D.C. public safety stats

While in North Carolina with my parents, I watched from afar as the George Floyd riots played out — first in Minneapolis and then as they spread to Washington, D.C. I decided I was not going back as long as the riots continued. I worried that my apartment building, which had businesses on the first floor, […]

Completed ‘Hail Mary’

Movies too often use outer space as nothing more than a convenient setting for battles, explosions, and laser fights. The fabulously entertaining science-fiction movie Project Hail Mary offers something wholly different. It imagines space as a luminous yet mysterious backdrop for friendship, spiritual growth, and expressions of intergalactic empathy. Although, owing to its setting, the […]

The cultural dominance of Chuck Norris

The amazing persistence of the legend of Chuck Norris, who died on March 19 at the age of 86, says something profound about American popular culture. At the time of his death, Norris had long ceased being a major movie star — he had not made a high-profile theatrical feature since The Expendables 2 in […]

‘Paradise’ found

Hulu’s Paradise, currently wrapping up a fine second season after an Emmy-nominated first, is the most spoilable show on TV. Try as he might, even the conscientious critic can’t avoid untying its frilliest bow. For about 45 minutes, creator Dan Fogelman’s (This Is Us) latest effort appears to be a standard-issue political thriller, varieties of […]

Senate sends DHS bill to the House without ICE funding

The Senate took the first step toward reopening the Department of Homeland Security on Friday, approving legislation that funds all of the agency except its most controversial function: immigration enforcement. The Coast Guard, Transportation Security Administration, and a host of other subagencies under DHS will be funded under a bill the Senate passed overnight via […]

DOJ to investigate Maine and California over constitutionality of ‘housing men in women’s prisons’

The Department of Justice notified Gov. Janet Mills (D-ME) and Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) that it was beginning federal investigations in Maine and California, respectively, due to those states over admitting men into women’s prisons. The investigations will assess whether each state engaged in violating the “constitutional rights of female prisoners” incarcerated at specific prisons […]
