President-elect Donald Trump’s selection of Rep. Tom Price of Georgia as the next secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is an outstanding choice. It is hard to imagine a candidate more qualified to serve in this crucial position, especially at a time when America’s health care economy is undergoing a major transition. He is not only...

A group of military veterans protested at a private Massachusetts college over the weekend, objecting to a decision by the college to allow the American flag to be removed from its main flagpole, and adding their voices to a debate on a campus that has seen the flag lowered, removed and even burned since the election. Organizers estimated that 400 people attended...

Progressives’ and leftists’ outpouring of praise for Fidel Castro at his death was to be expected, although it has been more fulsome, tone-deaf, and cloying than I expected. For just a few examples see President Obama, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon. Rational and moral people, however, will rightly ask, “How would anyone aware of Castro’s...

President-elect Donald Trump said Tuesday he won’t pursue criminal charges against Hillary Clinton because it would divide the nation — and she’s already “suffered greatly.” “I don’t want to hurt the Clintons — I really don’t,” Trump said in an interview with the New York Times. “She went through a lot and suffered greatly in many different ways.” When asked...

Election 2016 is over, and the losing candidate, Democrat Hillary Clinton, is free to wind up her campaign apparatus and take on other personal ventures. But her email scandal, which played a major role in the election battle, isn’t going away anytime soon. The newest legal move by Judicial Watch, which was at the center of exposing the emails from...

Neill Blomkamp’s 2013 science-fiction film Elysium, starring Matt Damon and Jodie Foster, takes place in Los Angeles, circa 2154. The wealthy have moved into an orbiting luxury satellite—the Elysium of the title—while the wretched majority of humans remain in squalor on Earth. The film works passably as an allegory for its director’s native South Africa, where racial apartheid was enforced...

The Heritage Foundation, a longtime player in the conservative policy world, is poised to have a major influence on personnel in President-elect Donald Trump’s administration, easing concerns among some conservatives about the ideological direction of the new government. A think tank that emerged in the 1970s as the premier conservative policy and research operation in Washington, D.C., the group has...

Can We Please Stop With This Nazi, Hitler, Name-Calling Stuff? Adolph Hitler and the Nazis committed some of the most horrific acts known to the human race, systematically murdering millions of Jews — including one and a half million Jewish children and babies — along with other ethnic and social minorities, not to mention sparking a war that killed many...

The Left’s Post-Trump Win Campaign of Terror A few months back, I wondered aloud here why campus leftists would invite fellow students to bite the heads off fetus cookies. Or what purpose was served by hanging a Jesus dartboard in a dorm. The answer I found was simple. And alarming. The left in America is engaged in what Catholic philosopher...
