Progressives love unions. Not only do unions protect workers, they say, unions gave us the weekend and the middle class. I say, capitalism created the middle class. Employers, competing for better workers, gave us the weekend. But whatever you think about capitalism, few people question the claim that unions help workers. But I will. It’s the focus of my new video. A couple years ago, the…

President Donald Trump joined a long line of presidents who complained that the NATO countries fail to pay their fair share and therefore take advantage of the United States. In 2014, the European NATO countries agreed to a target of spending 2% of their GDP on defense by 2024. In 2014, only the United States, the U.K. and Greece were spending at least 2%. In a recent interview, NATO Secretary…

Before Robby Starbuck became a problem for leftist companies, alerting consumers to stupid woke indoctrination policies, he directed music videos. He worked with some big names, like Snoop Dogg and Natalie Portman. In my new video, I remind him that his Snoop Dogg video includes the lyrics: “Set the mood, spoon and groom. ... I can get you high.” He replies, “Realizing that this stuff has a…

On Sept. 11, 2001, Muslim fanatics flew planes into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, killing upward of 3,000 innocent American civilians. Americans asked why? We ask again today. We hear from the Iranian regime, “Death to America,” “Death to Israel.” Why? The unfortunate answer is, for the fanatics in Iran, our very existence is sufficient reason for them to serve up a death sentence.…

ABC News did the right thing in firing long-time correspondent Terry Moran after it became painfully apparent to executives that he was far too comfortable with publicly flaunting his left-wing hate while enveloped in the protection of the network’s banner. This standard needs to be applied to the other festering problem for the ABC News brand: The View.

As Los Angeles burst into riots this week over a federal immigration raid, one protester took to his social media channels to explain just what was going on -- why arsonists armed with Palestinian flags stood alongside vandals armed with Palestinian flags, why some masked protesters hurled rocks at police cars while others summoned automated Waymo taxis only to set them on fire. His…

The riots that kicked off in Los Angeles last weekend aren’t just about illegal immigration — they’re part of a revolutionary movement. “Anti-colonialism” is a term often heard in America’s college classrooms, but off campus virtually no one takes it seriously. It’s just another harebrained radical academic theory, right? Yes, the theory is mostly silly — but the practice is deadly serious.…

In dealing with the anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles, the Los Angeles police chief described his force as “overwhelmed” by the protesters and rioters. The city, as is the case with many of America’s other large cities, suffers from inadequate manpower. The size of the LAPD is the smallest in 20 years. The George Floyd protest/riots-inspired “cops-are-out-to-get blacks” narrative is not just…

It’s been five years since the George Floyd/BLM protests and riots. Therefore, the leftwing legacy media seizes upon this occasion to pull out its race-colored thermometer to measure America’s post George Floyd “racial progress.”  A recent New York Times headline read, “Five Years After Floyd -- We look at what has changed since George Floyd’s murder.” According to The Times…
