A recent Wall Street Journal poll showed President Joe Biden and Donald Trump in a virtual dead-heat. And my initial reaction was…’That can’t be. It’s an outlier. Let’s see what the next polls say.’ Well, a new CNN poll this week indicated the same alar...

The first votes for President of the United States will take place 11 months from now, in Iowa, where Republican voters (but not Democratic voters) will let their voices be heard. Eleven months ago is a very short amount of time. Eleven months ago, Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Academy Awards...

Itturns out you cannot carry out violent insurrections, and then hope to legally serve in the American government, according to the U.S. Constitution. Indeed, a rational and honest reading of our much-vaunted Constitution tells us that officeholders who become rebels are thereafter barred from holdi...

Earlier this week, presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy voluntarily stepped into a massive pile of shit when, while attempting to justify MAGA conspiracy theories about January 6th, he wondered aloud how many federal agents were on the planes that took down the twin towers on 9/11. And then he&...

The story of Wall Street millionaires trying to overthrow the President begins with something we all know and love: Capitalism. I’m not joking. The election of Franklin D. Roosevelt or FDR (D-New York) was upsetting for conservative businessmen. “There was just thi...

What I’m hearing is a very politically progressive young man of 1983 who has probably been reading a lot of Foucault, etc., thinking about all sexuality as ‘socially constructed’, as the lingo went. That leaves him trying to explain why he’s straight. He notes he’s n...

In case, you’re a normal hard-working person who hasn’t time for the news, here is what we’re talking about: ‘[Hunter] Biden was indicted Thursday in federal court in Delaware on three counts tied to possession of a gun while using narcotics. Two counts accuse Biden of hav...

The President’s Estate is located near the Secretariat Buildings and consists of 350 acres of land shaped like a crescent. A nearby information board said the estate “is sited on the most important vista of New Delhi, the Central Vista connecting the Ridge to Purana Oila and the River...

As Tel Aviv’s ambassador assumed her duties in Ankara on Tuesday, the Israeli president said he is “looking forward to” receiving the credentials of Turkish ambassador soon. “So moving to hear HaTikvah at the Presidential Complex in Ankara again, as Ambassador Irit Lillian...

My time at MIT was one of the highlights of my life. In many ways, MIT has been etched into my DNA, forever a piece of my identity. I was always so proud of that place as a beacon of meritocracy, open-mindedness, and engineering rigor. But some of the accounts of Jewish and anti-Israeli harassmen...

Context is key. When Congress invited Gay and other leaders in academia to testify about antisemitism on college campuses and universities, they did so in an inquisition-style effort to pressure scholars to crack down on student groups showing solidarity with Palestinians, conflating any opposition ...

You may have heard of Claudine Gay, the first Black president of Harvard University, who resigned after less than a year in office. But do you know the real reason behind her decision? It’s not what you think. It’s not because of the antisemitism scandal, or the plagiarism allegations, o...

Today, the National Council of Negro Women, Inc. (NCNW) announced Shavon Arline-Bradley was hired to serve as the organization’s first president and chief executive officer. After 88 years, the organization changed its governance structure to work more efficiently. “We are excited to ...

The accompanying video thoroughly examines former President Donald Trump’s constitutional eligibility to run for the presidency again. The central argument pivots on interpreting the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, specifically Section 3, which addresses the ramifications of...

The White House revealed its ambitious plan to cancel $4.8 billion in federal student loan debt, aiming to provide relief to an additional 80,300 borrowers. With this move, the Biden-Harris Administration proudly declared a total approved debt cancellation of $132 billion for over 3.6 million A...

Everyone thinks that the President of the United States is the most powerful job in the world. But do you ever stop and think about all of the things a president can’t do? While a sitting President of the United States has the authority to launch nuclear weapons, meet with diplomats ...

I’ve worked for Victoria Nourse for a long time. And I mean a long time. And I told the Dean of Students that — when I met him — I almost decided not to do the speech here, although my son went to Georgetown, and my staff went to Georgetown, and son did his first year of law school...

So I am starting to feel more confident than ever that there is no way in this world that Donald Trump can win in November. I’ve been saying for the longest time now that his base has shrunk, leaving him mostly just the craziest of the crazies; that the math doesn’t work, and that it&rsq...

I am the perfect candidate for president. I have no political experience, excel at insulting people, and always sport a fake tan. I don’t play golf (Is miniature golf okay?), but I have a dog that bites, and I can read off a teleprompter with 105% accuracy as long as I’m not crying. I al...

“Former President Donald Trump on Saturday suggested the Civil War could have been avoided through “negotiation,” arguing that the fight to end slavery in the US was ultimately unnecessary and that Abraham Lincoln should have done more to avoid bloodshed. “So man...

Our first American President knew what would happen when political parties took control. Are you aware elections controlled by political parties are not sanctioned or even addressed by the United States Constitution or Bill of Rights? None of the 22 amendments to the Constitution...
