Are The TV News Media As Powerful As They Think They Are? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last Friday, Trump kicked CNN, POLITICO, and MS-NOW out of the White House press briefing for their long history of erroneous reporting. Today, the four major network news outlets—CBS, NBC, ABC, and FOX News—announced that they are boycotting the White House until the outcasts are returned to their seats.

Instead, I want to discuss how America is a place in which high school and college students—including those in Red States—feel comfortable celebrating and mocking Charlie Kirk's death.
The Slo-Mo Redefinition Of The Constitution (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A young man I know asked a very important question: If we stop people from voting for socialism or Islam, aren't we violating the entire principle of our Constitution, which is representative democracy? I thought about that a bit and have some ideas
