Senate Should Reject Radical Leftist FCC Nominee Sohn
Even by Washington’s appallingly low ethics standards, Gigi Sohn gives “pay to play” a bad name—even though she would surely deny that was, for all practical purposes, what she was doing. At a hearing of the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee last week, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, called out President Joe Biden’s nominee to…Peter Parisi -

Radical Left Targets Video Games as Hotbeds of Right-Wing Extremism
Gamers, beware, the left is coming for you. A new report from Axios exclaims that “far-right extremists are a growing presence in gaming” and that “the industry’s hidden metrics, lackluster content moderation and head-in-the-sand attitudes get in the way of assessing and combatting the problem.” Axios cited a 2019 report from the notoriously partisan Anti-Defamation…Douglas Blair -

How Trial Lawyers Team With Leftist Activists to Hurt Consumers

“The left is weak. It may not feel like that when you’re being censored on Facebook … but those actions actually evince weakness.

Stop Surrendering Education to the Radical Left
This Independence Day, a poll from Issues & Insights revealed that only 36% of adults aged 18-24 said they were “proud to be American,” compared with 86% of those over the age of 65.

The Radical Left’s Ideas Could Destroy America for Generations
Rioting. Vandalism. Bullying opponents into silence. Calls to defund the police, abolish the Electoral College, and remake America as a socialist country. It’s hard to believe what we’re now seeing. For months, the forces of Marxism, socialism, and anarchy have terrorized our streets and threatened the values that make America the greatest nation in the world. They have…Kay C. James -
Monuments Are Only the Start of Radical Left’s War on Western Values
The radical left has hijacked debate over America’s monuments to wage a cultural war. Their goal: to deny the moral legitimacy of our democratic republic. Violent attacks on statues and memorials aren’t mere vandalism. They are an assault on the United States itself and the values upon which this great nation stands. We should all stand united as Americans in the defense of our heritage,…Nile Gardiner -
How a Radical Left-Wing Historian Birthed the Anti-Columbus Crusade

Spain’s Loss of National Sovereignty Driving Rise of Radical Leftists
The political establishment collapsed in Spain in Sunday’s elections, proving once again that this is a trend affecting the entire West, not just the U.S. It did so, at least in part, for another reason that is also trending at the moment: the radical party that surprised at the polls made the case that too…Mike Gonzalez -

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal yesterday accused the Obama administration of making energy more expensive with the goal of making Americans more dependent on government. “The Left, they like to tell us they are the ones [who] are following science and we’re the science deniers,” Jindal said to a small group of reporters after delivering a…Kelsey Bolar
