The latest episode of Frontline, an investigative series with a historical left-wing slant that airs on taxpayer-funded PBS, appeared on Halloween night. That fit the scary tone of “McConnell, the GOP & the Court,” which portrayed Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) as a sinister Svengali of the Supreme Court. Jealousy, perhaps? The biography opened with darkened still…

The front page of Monday’s New York Times marked the return of the U.S. Supreme Court to the bench with the scary-sounding headline “How Far to the Right Will the Supreme Court Go?” Supreme Court beat reporter Adam Liptak and Abbie VanSickle shared the liberal obsession with the potential extremism of the Supreme Court, now dominated by Republican presidential appointees. (The paper…

A federal court of appeals has mandated that Meta comply with a subpoena requiring documentation related to the Big Tech company’s oppressive censorship of alleged COVID-19 “misinformation.”

The Thursday evening PBS NewsHour showcased the latest attack on Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas with a two-pronged attack, hosting Joel Anderson of the Slate podcast "Slow Burn" and Brett Murphy from ProPublica to talk about that outlet’s latest glossy attack on the conservative Supreme Court justice.

Biden’s censorship regime can’t catch its breath after being hit with yet another amicus brief from a legal watchdog group fighting for free speech.

WASHINGTON -- Leonard Leo, the founder of the Federalist Society and various other conservative groups, sits on a bundle of money. Moreover, he is giving a lot of it away. He is not giving it to any left-wing cause or even to the Girl Scouts of America. He is giving it to right-wing causes. About this The Washington Post is apparently furious. Last week, The Post prattled on…

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined ABC’s Good Morning America on Thursday to push back against the “silly” criticisms of his plans to reform his country’s Supreme Court by calmly giving host George Stephanopoulos a basic civics lesson in separation of powers. Not a fan of the “silly” description, Stephanopoulos responded by wondering why Netanyahu doesn’t just listen to…

Friday's Washington Post included no story on the House Weaponization Subcommittee's hearing with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Breitbart's Emma-Jo Morris on Big Tech censorship. But the front page had an obligatory front-page story on a grand jury investigating Donald Trump and this amazing scandal piece: "Activist Leo aided drive to lionize Thomas." That's Leonard Leo, head of the…

CNN This Morning host Phil Mattingly had Representative Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) on Tuesday morning’s program to discuss several different issues, notably the recent anti-Semitic statements from Representative Pramila Jayapal (D-WA).

U.S. District Judge Terry A. Doughty of Louisiana is the gift that keeps on giving. Doughty rejected the Biden administration’s request to stay an order banning the federal government from colluding with Big Tech platforms to censor free speech online.

After a judge issued an injunction restricting the government’s censorship activities, the Biden administration rushed to protest the pro free-speech decision.

It may not have had the significance of the Emancipation Proclamation, or the civil rights legislation of the 1960s, but last week’s ruling by the Supreme Court that affirmative action in college admissions violates the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause is an important advancement toward equality for all.
