Watching the woke eat their own is an entertaining sideshow — and while it’s unfortunate when it won’t end up benefiting a Republican, at least we can take heart that Nancy Pelosi will go out slamming a thoroughly woke gay man who’s poised to replace her in Congress. California state Sen. Scott Wiener is locked in a two-Democrat race with San Francisco Supervisor Connie Chan to replace the retiring Rep. Pelosi (or, as other Democrats love to refer to her, “Speaker Emerita Pelosi”). Wiener was first in the jungle primary in June, but given that the top two advance and…
Colombia’s conservative President Abelardo de la Espriella took office as the nation’s new head of state for the next four years on Friday afternoon. The presidential inauguration, hosted by the city of Cali for the first time in the country’s history, occurred under the watch of a highly reinforced security operation amid a string of terrorist threats and a thwarted attack with explosives this week. Abelardo de la Espriella succeeded former President Gustavo Petro, a former member of the Marxist M19 terrorist group and Colombia’s first and so far only leftist president ever. President de la Espriella, a 48-year-old lawyer…
Thursday on CNN’s “The Lead,” Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has turned the Justice Department into a “protection racket for the president.” Schiff said, “It used to be the case when you got a nominee who is unfit for office, you would reject them, and you would say to the president, send me somebody qualified. That hasn’t happened here. And given the long list of malfeasance and infractions of Todd Blanche, the Justice Department is really hard to wrap your head around. He’s weaponized the department to create a slush fund for the president. He’s used…
The Senate Saturday confirmed Todd Blanche to be attorney general, following a weeks-long struggle with a handful of wary Republicans. The Senate voted 50-49 to approve him, with GOP Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska joining with Democrats in opposition. Blanche, President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney, has been serving as acting attorney general since Pam Bondi’s ouster in April. Questions about Blanche’s potential conflicts of interest from representing Trump, as well as his role in the creation of a $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund” as part of Trump’s settlement this spring with the IRS, created headwinds…

One of the left’s favorite fronts to fight the culture war is language. They have seen great success in sowing confusion and disharmony by manipulating words, distorting words from their original meaning, and striking words from the vernacular deemed offensive or politically incorrect. A new development on that front comes from the pro-abortion organization Planned Parenthood. It was not bad enough that this is arguably the most prominent advocate and culprit in carrying out child murder in history. They now have a more benign term for doing it. On Monday, the Planned Parenthood official page on social media platform Facebook…

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, approved by the UN General Assembly in 2015, includes 17 global goals (the Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs). One of them is “universal health coverage” – that is, the idea that all people will be able to obtain the medical services they need without facing financial hardship that ruins them.How things are progressing in that direction can be judged from the data presented in a World Health Organization publication, Tracking universal health coverage: 2025 global monitoring report.The WHO formulated and tracks two fairly complex indicators, each made up of many smaller ones. The first, the…

The Houthi Iranian proxy terror organization in Yemen proudly announced on Thursday the alleged killing or injuring of hundreds of “Saudi enemy mercenaries” in a large attack on military assets associated with the legitimate government of Yemen. Multiple reports citing the Yemeni government on Thursday said the known death toll at the time was closer to between 30 and 45 people, though several suggested that this number would rise as the government assessed the damage. The Yemeni government is allied with the government of Saudi Arabia, while the Houthis rely on the Iranian terror state for much of their diplomatic,…
