By: Jack Butler – nationalreview.com – June 29, 2025 There was a germ of radicalism even in arguments for gay marriage that presented themselves as conservative.  Would Edmund Burke have supported gay marriage?

The Biles-Gaines clash yields a staggeringly false claim in USA Today.

This new strain of the LGBT movement is about many things. “Progress” is not one of them.
