History

The Father of Conservatism was anti-slavery. But facts probably won't save him.

To Glenn Younkin, the two Founders from Virginia should remain “The Father of our Country” and “The Father of the Constitution.”

Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio canceled their annual July Fourth reading of the Declaration of Independence. The surprise here is that NPR ever showed reverence for 1776 in the first place. They’re more marinated in the spirit of 1974, lobbying to impeach Nixon and lose the Vietnam War and enshrine abortion on demand.

On Thursday, former MSNBC host and public-radio host Melissa Harris-Perry energetically compared the Dobbs decision overturning Roe vs. Wade to the Dred Scott fugitive-slave decision of 1857. It came in a segment titled “Reproductive Coercion is an American Cornerstone.”

In the left’s worldwide crusade against all that is good and holy, their latest victim is none other than the legend of Saint George, the dragon slayer. The University of East Anglia’s (UEA) professors have issued trigger warnings regarding Saint George, as the…

On Friday’s CBS Mornings, they promoted a two-hour documentary on Friday night hyping Watergate: High Crimes in the White House. They tied it into the new anti-Trump hearings. They brought on Lesley Stahl, who started 50 years ago at CBS News, to connect the Watergate hearings to the January 6 hearings. 

If you thought you could easily be anonymous on social media, think again. 

The media cheered a judge and jury dismissed Sarah Palin's lawsuit against The New York Times over their smears claiming she incited a mass shooting in Arizona. The media feared that John Durham's probe of the origins of the Trump-Russia obsession would ruin their narrative.

The leftists at the New York Times Book Review aren't as shameless as The Washington Post in using their "Notable Books" of the year list to promote books by their own staff. That doesn't mean there wasn't a dramatic tilt to the left.

There really isn’t much to say about this, except to remind you that the Women’s March are the dingbats with the pink lady-part hats who tied up traffic in DC a few years ago. 

Thanksgiving, a truly all-American holiday, will be celebrated next week, so it must be time for network television to trash the pilgrims as evil colonizers who stole land from Native Americans. This week on ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy, viewers were told that the colonizers didn’t even offer to share their Thanksgiving feast with the natives.

NPR offers a daily talk show called Fresh Air out of WHYY-FM in Philadelphia. Its leftist tilt is legendary, and the legend was strongly underlined on Wednesday with an incredibly servile interview with Nikole Hannah-Jones, organizer of the "1619 Project" agitprop at The New York Times.  There are 15 questions offered over 36 minutes, and every single one of them is like a…

There’s a new battle brewing over the federal debt ceiling. Ten years ago, after the Obama administration instigated massive federal spending to deal with the Great Recession, Republicans insisted on long-term deficit reduction, and the liberal media slammed them as nihilists, hostage-takers, terrorists, suicide bombers and zombie vampires.

Talk about burying the lead! Politico has discovered that Joe Biden’s ancestors owned slaves, but tucks it away in 35 paragraphs deep in a vast fluff piece titled: “How Joe Biden Became Irish.”
