Don’t be fooled by the Congressional testimony circus of Attorney General William Barr on the follow up to the Mueller Report. This is about nothing but the left’s paranoia, probably well-founded, and fear of the new AG’s commitment to get to the crux of the real collusion in the Russia election interference witch hunt. After […]

The Krauthammer Finale
If you are a big fan of Charles Krauthammer as I am, this volume, The Point of It All: A Lifetime of Great Loves and Endeavors, will not disappoint. In fact I think it is better than his last collection of essays before his death. This one encompasses 91 essays and articles covering almost 40 years […]

Among […]
The Mueller Report
You can go to the archives and look it up: in the almost two years since the appointment of the Special Counsel to investigate the possible collusion of the Trump campaign with Russia, I have not written one word about it. Why? Because intuitively I have believed from the outset that it was primarily a […]
The College Admissions Scam
The recently revealed nationwide college admissions fraud seems to me the result of a confluence of three threads that have metastasized in higher education from other aspects of our culture over the past couple of decades. One, a sense of entitlement in our elites, who expect certain preferential treatment regardless of merit; two, an always […]
The Real Border Crisis
We’ve had a daily debate for several months about a national emergency at the border, President Trump declared one, then survived a veto override vote by Congress on his declaration, only to witness over the past several weeks a border crisis which is much worse than the one we thought we had and for different […]
The Indispensable Man of the 20th Century
I suppose that, with the possible exception of Abraham Lincoln, no one has had more words written about him than Winston Churchill and, particularly after the 30 years and multiple volumes of output by his official biographer Martin Gilbert, one might wonder what else could there possible be to say or write about him. And […]
