Political Commentary & Opinion

Later this week, the U.S. House is scheduled to vote on an important measure that addresses the immense rule-making power of the administrative state and the threat that poses to our Constitution’s structure. The REINS Act, or Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act, would help limit Congress’s overly vast delegation of lawmaking…

From the boardroom to the cash register, big businesses have gone woke for “Pride.” But consumers finally seem to have had their fill. In a matter of weeks, Target and Anheuser-Busch lost a combined $40.8 billion in market value over their LGBTQ+ Pride-focused marketing campaigns. Their corporate collapses should be a warning for other businesses:…

This time, they’re coming after baseball. Baseball. Get it? The national pastime. The inner sanctum of homespun goodness. Your last refuge from the crazy. The leftists intent on politicizing everything, changing society, and coercing changed behavior won’t leave you alone, ever, anywhere.

As companies like Target, Bud Light, and others desperately try to control the flames burning down their brands, this annual test of LGBT loyalty is putting most businesses in a position they’d rather not be in: outraging an already agitated consumer base or ticking…
