During the time of the Roman Republic, Cato the Elder would end every speech in the Senate, no matter what the topic, with “Carthago delenda est.” Carthage must be destroyed. Why? Because Cato saw Carthage as a very real and existential threat to the Roman Republic. In many ways, the tech monopolies today are a
What is even more obnoxious than thousands of smug, self-righteous leftists preaching hysterically about the Church of Mother Earth and the imminent destruction of our planet due to “global warming?” Hearing this same song-and-dance from a bunch of literal children. And that is exactly what the Left and its enthusiastic enablers in the corporate leftist
On September 11, many of us paused to remember the lives lost and the heroes that rose to the occasion. Sometime around the first of September, I always send a package to Operation Gratitude to thank all those still in harm’s way, 18 years later. Others, like Representative Ilhan Omar (D.-Minn.), want us to forget

The U.S. intelligence community’s leaders, the Democratic Party, and the media (excuse the redundancy) are trying to convince Americans that President Trump’s conversation with, and perhaps promises to, an unnamed foreign leader amounts to some sort of constitutional crisis. Never mind that the Constitution vests “the executive Power” in the “President of the United States,”
On Friday, schoolchildren around the world will be prompted to walk out of class as part of the “Global Climate Strike.” These young “climate strikers” will protest alleged inaction on climate change and promote an end to fossil fuel use. “Our house is on fire—let’s act like it. We demand climate justice for everyone,” the
The mainstream media paints Justice Brett Kavanaugh as a dangerous sexual predator. Yet, every story they push falls apart immediately. Last weekend, The New York Times had to correct an article that claimed Kavanaugh flashed another woman when he attended Yale. The correction stated that the woman doesn’t remember such an incident and refused to
As we’ve just passed the dog days of summer, when people were outside at swimming pools, the beach, and elsewhere, physicians like us were rightly concerned about sunscreens, which are critical for people exposed to the sun. It’s a complex subject. Earlier this year, the FDA proposed a rule that describes the conditions under which
