Pentagon Doesn’t Negotiate with Terrorists or Pay Ransoms … Except for When it Does

In a recent revelation, the Pentagon apparently tried to pay a ransom for Bowe Bergdahl, and the money went to an Afghan con man instead: The ransom payment was first disclosed by Rep. Duncan Hunter in a Nov. 5 letter to Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. Mr. Hunter stated in the letter that Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) made the payment […]

A number of women have come forward recently to throw their rape accusations on what is quickly becoming the funeral pyre of Bill Cosby and his career.

Chicago Teaching ‘Safe’ Anal Sex in 6th Grade Sex-Ed

Chicago public schools are under fire after explicit slides from a proposed elementary sex-ed program surfaced during a parent meeting: The presentation included slides that are clearly not age appropriate, and include “demonstrations” of applying male and female condoms (FC), DNAinfo reports.

Benjy the ‘Gay’ Irish Bull Saved From the Slaughterhouse

An apparently infertile Irish bull named Benjy didn’t impregnate any of the cows offered him, so he was set to go to the slaughterhouse (being largely useless for any other purpose). A veterinarian brought in to diagnose the situation said that Benjy was actually fertile, so that wasn’t the trouble. The problem became apparent when […]

Can We Fix the Internet?

Recently, I clicked on an article on a music website about Gorgio Moroder—one of the original architects of EDM and a recent collaborator on Daft Punk’s Random Access Memories. I hoped to get information on his new studio album, but as I scrolled down to read the article, I stopped dead in my tracks. In […]

Obama Tries to Distance Himself from Gruber

Maybe Jonathan Gruber was a little too honest when he said that voter stupidity and a lack of transparency were the keys to the passage of the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare.

Executive Disorder and the Breakdown of Federalism

Ten days ago, Americans voted Democrats out of Congress in the midterm elections.

Ex-Wife of Oil Baron Harold Hamm Rejects $1 Billion Divorce Settlement

Sue Ann Hamm, now ex-wife of oil tycoon Harold Hamm, has been awarded about one billion dollars in a recent divorce settlement. And she is appealing the award “on grounds that it grossly undervalues the marital wealth she is entitled to.” On first glance, her appeal sounds ridiculous. Let’s say that she lives another forty […]

Why Americans Hate Incumbents Yet Still Re-Elect Them

In a recent article, PolitiFact ran the data and apparently the approval rating for Congress is around 14%, yet the incumbent re-election rate is around 95%. Just in case you just suffered blunt force trauma to the head, let me explain why that statistic is odd. It means potential voters overwhelmingly hate the people who […]

Why Drug Screening Welfare Recipients Doesn’t Work

Scott Walker has recently come under fire for proposing drug screening procedures for potential recipients of public assistance. His critics claim that similar drug screening measures in other states don’t work. And all the bleeding hearts claim drug screening is insulting to the poor. But setting aside stereotypes and leftist rhetoric, let’s take a look […]
