Unless you are brainwashed, you regard the statements “men give birth” and “defund the police” as absurd. Why, then, do leftists (as opposed to liberals and conservatives) say these things and even believe them? I think there are two — related — explanations. One ...

Here’s a joke: “Every girl is bi. You just have to figure out if it’s polar or sexual.” This joke was retweeted last week by Dave Weigel, a Washington Post reporter. He retweeted it because he thought it was funny. He thought it was funny because it is. But, of course, unless...

There is a reason nearly everyone is familiar with the saying, “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” The reason is, of course, that it is true and therefore it helps explain why there is so much evil. Take the 20th century, the bloodiest century on record, in which about 100 ...

If an American president has ever given as mendacious, anti-American and hate-filled a speech as President Joe Biden did in Buffalo, New York, last week, I am not familiar with it. Nor are you.

On the eve of Passover, on Good Friday, The New York Times published an opinion piece on God, the Bible and Passover. This would not be noteworthy except for the fact that the piece mocked all three. The two titles of the piece (one in the print edition and one for the Times’ digital edition) ...

As I have documented on a number of occasions, the Left ruins everything it touches. There is no exception. From universities to high schools and now including even elementary schools, to late-night TV, to sports, to the arts and, increasingly, science, the Left is a destruction machine. And nowhere...

The second of my two sons got married last week, and it prompted me to consider the question: What brings parents more joy: their child getting into a prestigious college or their child getting married (presumably to a good person)? Three things prompted this question: my joy and pride, the joy of t...
