    The longest-serving Republican senator in U.S. history announced this week that he will finally, finally, finally, finally, finally, finally, finally retire.

This idiocy doesn't merely spring from hatred for Trump but from a deep-seated need to justify the Obama administration's feckless Iran policy.

  President Trump is up 3 percent! I refer to the betting odds. Gamblers (mostly in Europe because political bets are legal there) now give the president a 53 percent chance of finishing his first term. That’s it — they barely think he’ll complete four years. This must seem wrong to Trump supporters, but when […]

All of this wanton viewing of live-action pornography has produced, many are arguing, an army of young men who are incapable of normal and satisfying sexual activity with real human beings.

  By now the whole world has heard about comedian Kathy Griffin’s appalling staged-photo of herself holding a mock-up of the bloody, severed head of Donald Trump.

But to ring out 2017, I’m raising a toast to some of my favorite bulldogs […]

    Activists are scoffing as EPA chief Scott Pruitt’s mission to completely redefine what it means to be a “true” environmentalist. Activist groups are not enthused with Pruitt’s plan to make environmentalism less interested in eventually destroying fossil fuels and more interested in environmental stewardship. “I’ve been asking the question lately, what is true environmentalism? […]

You don't have to admire this president, or even like him, to acknowledge the obvious: that more than a few journalists won't rest until he's out of office.

The United Nations is an outmoded organization that's outlived whatever small usefulness it once had. There's no reason for us to continue funding it.

    In a Dec. 15 open letter entitled “Created Male and Female,” religious leaders of various denominations in the United States denounced “gender ideology” as a rejection of reason and science, which “harms individuals and societies,” especially children.
