Kamala Doesn’t Have to Be ‘Momala’ to the Whole Country

July 26, 2024 country, Doesn't, Kamala, whole, ‘Momala’0 comment

What makes someone a parent? It’s not the most pressing question facing the country. But in the days since President Joe Biden dropped his reelection campaign and endorsed Kamala Harris to be the Democratic nominee, Republicans have lobbed a personal and notably misogynistic attack against the vice president: that she’s unfit to be president because she doesn’t have biological children. “The concerns of parents and families will always be abstract to her,” Will Chamberlain, a conservative lawyer, posted on X on Sunday. Blake Masters, a venture capitalist running to represent…

Decline in Religion Doesn’t Bode Well for the Republic

Over the last several decades, a growing number of Americans have abandoned their faith — usually Christianity — to join the ranks of the nonreligious. These “Nones” describe themselves as atheists, agnostics or “nothing in particular.” Some may shrug at this, but you don’t have to be religious to know that this shift doesn’t bode well for a nation founded on the principles of self-government. For most of the 20th century, 70% of Americans belonged to a house of worship. As recently as the early 1990s, nearly 90% of Americans…

Chris Christie Doesn’t Want to Hear the Name Trump

“How many different ways are you gonna ask the same fucking question, Mark?” Chris Christie asked me. We were seated in the dining room of the Hay-Adams hotel. It’s a nice hotel, five stars. Genteel. Christie’s sudden ire was a bit jolting, as I had asked him only a few fairly innocuous questions so far, most of them relating to Donald Trump, the man he might run against in the presidential race. Christie, the former governor of New Jersey, was visiting Washington as part of his recent tour of public…

The Left has pushed a radical pro-abortion agenda across the country ever since the Supreme Court’s June 24 decision to correct a grave error by overturning Roe v. Wade and abortion on demand. In the states, the Left has responded to the high court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization by promoting taxpayer-funded abortion “tourism,” flouting state abortion laws, and seeking to enshrine so-called abortion rights in state constitutions. At the federal level, the Biden administration announced executive actions to promote abortion and abortion travel, particularly under the…

The Real Reason America Doesn’t Have Gun Control

May 26, 2022 America, Control, Doesn't, Reason, Real0 comment

After each of the repeated mass shootings that now provide a tragic backbeat to American life, the same doomed dance of legislation quickly begins. As the outraged demands for action are inevitably derailed in Congress, disappointed gun-control advocates, and perplexed ordinary citizens, point their fingers at the influence of the National Rifle Association or the intransigent opposition of congressional Republicans. Those are both legitimate factors, but the stalemate over gun-control legislation since Bill Clinton’s first presidential term ultimately rests on a much deeper problem: the growing crisis of majority rule…

Biden’s Supreme Court panel doesn’t recommend adding justices, other big changes

They studied, listened and debated, and after seven months of work, President Biden’s commission on the Supreme Court failed to recommend any significant changes to the way the justices operate. While suggesting that term limits deserve a closer look, the panel said there was “profound disagreement” over liberal activists’ proposal … The Washington Times stories: White House
