Posted by Mike LaChance on May 01, 2021 9 Comments

The left has gone so far out of the mainstream and common sense, that some counter-culture icons are starting to sound like conservatives. Former Sex Pistols front man Johnny Rotten made it clear last fall that he was supporting Trump and this is one of the reasons why. The left has gone off the rails.

Meet the Swiss Billionaire Behind Arabella Advisors’ “Dark Money” Empire

Posted by Hayden Ludwig on April 27, 2021 12 Comments

New York Times reporter Ken Vogel recently revealed the efforts by Swiss billionaire and leftist mega-donor Hansjörg Wyss to purchase the parent company of the Chicago Tribune and other failing newspapers around the country. It’s laudable to see such genuine investigative journalism—especially since it likely led the billionaire to withdraw his $100 million bid. When so many framed Wyss as a liberal white knight bent on saving a venerable American industry, the reality couldn’t have been more different.

Renaming-Obsessed San Francisco School Board Should Rename Harvey Milk Elementary

Posted by Katya Sedgwick on April 11, 2021 9 Comments

Last month the San Francisco Board of Education (SFBOE) made a splash with their decree to rename 44 of its schools, including those celebrating presidents Washington and Lincoln, but now, after a round or two of ridicule and a lawsuit, it looks like the the renaming affair is going to fizzle out.

Posted by Mike LaChance on April 10, 2021 32 Comments

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer has warned against the idea of packing the court and the left is not happy.
