We Are Still Locked Down

Commentary Consider just how fortunate we are to have the Twitter Files. Every few days, we are seeing dumps of documents from the operations of Twitter before Elon Musk took over. This weekend’s release was especially shocking. It revealed a close and symbiotic relationship between the company’s management and the FBI, which employs 80 people…


The Age of Amnesia

Commentary The main defense of Anthony Fauci in his legal deposition this month was pretty simple: he forgot. He said that he couldn’t recall nearly 200 times and versions of that many more. He said that he was so busy running his huge agency plus shepherding vaccines that he couldn’t possibly remember this or that…


The World According to Mike Pence

Commentary I’m mostly interested in Mike Pence’s book “So Help Me God” for what he says about the experience of COVID controls, for this is what wrecked the administration he served. That will be my focus in what follows but let me first address what everyone is right now thinking: how could anyone give their autobiography such…

A Culture of Lies and the Healing Power of Truth

Commentary To a friend, I was trying to explain what made the Brownstone Institute annual conference and dinner in Miami this past weekend so very special. It was just fantastic that The Epoch Times covered it with a livestream, which is now up and ready to watch. The interviews were great all day but the…


Global Factory Activity Shrank in November but Price Pressures Ease

WASHINGTON/LONDON—Global factory output fell widely last month with U.S. manufacturing activity contracting for the first time in 2.5 years and the impact of China’s COVID-19 lockdowns weighing, although the downturn eased in Europe, surveys showed on Thursday. There were also encouraging signs that inflation may have peaked, or be close to doing so, in many…


Capitol Report (Nov. 30): Democrats Elect New Congressional leader; GOP Senators Push to End Military Vaccine Mandate

Several Republican senators are using a tight Pentagon funding deadline to their advantage, demanding a vote to repeal military vaccine mandates. Four Democratic senators are pressing the Biden administration on border security—in particular, about ending a Trump-era policy. The House passes a bill to avert a looming rail strike, but President Joe Biden is coming…


Fauci’s Contribution to Tyranny in China

Commentary The grim news from China again puts lockdowns on trial. It seems simply incredible that the United States and most Western nations tried some version of what vast numbers of Chinese citizens are protesting now. Moreover, the tactics that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) are using to crush dissent were tried at a lower…
