Hillary Clinton’s Financial Disclosure Omitted a ‘Pass-Through’ Company Used by Bill Clinton to Collect Consulting Fees – and Nobody Knows How Much

Another day, another potential scandal for the Clintons. This time, it involves a shady company hidden by Hillary Clinton in her financial disclosure that Bill seems to use as a pass-through company to put money into his pocket. The newly released financial files on Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton’s growing fortune omit a company with […]

Police Officer is ‘Dragged Into the Woods to Be Killed by Three Men’; Is Saved When His K-9 Chased After Him and Sends the Attacker Running

Police officers are constantly criticized over how they do their job, likely because people somehow forget just how dangerous that job is. This incident may help serve as a good reminder, though: a police officer was dragged into the woods after stopping to check on a car by three men threatening to kill him, and […]

Doom: Models State Most Himalayan Glaciers Could Disappear By 2100

I recently mentioned “cli-fi”, which is “climate fiction”, a growing subsection of novels and stories which incorporate climate change into the overall story. Rather like when authors would write fiction books based on nuclear war, EMP events, even zombies (I love a good zombie book, FYI, and read the heck out of them). Of course, […]

Democrats’ War on Campus Men

Emma Sulkowicz graduated from Columbia College in New York City last week, lugging her mattress under one arm as she reached for her degree with the other. Some classmates cheered for Sulkowicz, the self-proclaimed poster woman against sexual assault who carries around the mattress on which she was allegedly raped. Never mind that her charges […]

The Fed Considers A More Seasoned Approach

Just as the steady torrent of awful economic data, which began in the First Quarter and continued well into April and May, had forced many market analysts to grudgingly concede that 2015 would not see the robust economic growth that most had expected, the statisticians arrived on the scene like a cavalry charge and routed […]

Bernie Sanders’ Foul Socialist Odor

Socialist genius Bernie Sanders has figured out what’s really ailing America. Our store shelves have too many different brands of deodorant and sneakers. Just look at all those horrible, fully stocked aisles at Target and Walgreens and Wal-Mart and Payless and DSW and Dick’s Sporting Goods. It’s a national nightmare! If only consumers had fewer […]

Don’t Go!

It’s graduation time! Have we learned much? No. College has become a scam. Some students benefit: those with full scholarships and/or rich parents so they don’t go deep into debt, those who love learning for its own sake and land jobs in academia and those who get jobs that require a college credential. But that’s […]

Liberals Respect Me

During the early years of the Reagan administration, a Washington news conference was held for me for my first book, “The State Against Blacks.” Before making summary statements about the book, I offered the reporters assembled that they could treat me like a white person. They could ask me hard, pressing questions. They could demand […]

TPP Not About Trade

The Trans-Pacific Partnership has nothing to do with trade. While it officially embraces 12 countries plus the U.S., 76 percent of our trade with the 12 is with Mexico and Canada, already covered by NAFTA. Any growth exports is likely to have been already covered by NAFTA, making the TPP irrelevant to our trade relations. […]

Ann Coulter’s War

This week, iconoclastic master Ann Coulter released her new book, “Adios, America!” The book has already been labeled racist by the mainstream left, which fears her argument, and will undoubtedly be marginalized by the mainstream right, which doesn’t want to hear it. Coulter’s thesis is simple: Since Senator Teddy Kennedy, D-Mass., rammed through the Immigration […]

How the World Has Changed Since World War I

Over the past year, I’ve been reading books inspired by the centenary of World War I, a war with horrific casualties painful to contemplate. What helps in comprehending the scale of the slaughter is a book by one of Bill Gates’ favorite authors, the Canadian academic Vaclav Smil, “Creating the Twentieth Century: Technical Innovations of […]

‘He’s literally eating the jail’: Chicago Basketball Star, 17, Has Cost County $1 Million in Medical Bills After Eating Metal Screws In Jail

A Chicago teen has racked up a huge amount of medical bills – $1 million – by literally eating the jail. He’s ingested screws, thumb tacks, needles, and more after being unable to post bond for 16 months. Authorities at Cook County Jail told the Chicago Tribune that the case of 17-year-old Lamont Cathey highlights […]
