It’s indisputable at this point that the overwhelming majority of the mainstream media has a liberal bias. Starting with ex-CBS News reporter Bernie Goldberg’s seminal work “Bias,” the contemporary legacy media’s liberal proclivities are thoroughly documented. Fortunately, for conservative Americans, there’s been an explosion in alternative news and commentary outlets that offer a balance previously […]

Okay, in fairness, this isn’t a wholly accurate description of what happened in Northern France in May-June 1940. France surrendered, but after losing 92,000 soldiers killed in six weeks. But, for all intents and purposes, both the French and British were defeated by Nazi Germany in the first five days of Hitler’s invasion. Even before […]
By a 21-19 vote, the Democratic-controlled Virginia Senate has blocked Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s nominees for the state’s parole board and one appointee for the Safety and Health Codes Board.

Chief among them was legislation to repeal Virginia’s “red flag” law, which allows authorities to temporarily remove firearms from gun owners declared a danger to themselves or others. Del. Marie March (R-Floyd County) told the Senate panel considering her measure […]
Back in October, Bacon’s Rebellion wrote in detail about a $200,000 donation by Dominion Energy to Virginia Accountability PAC, a benign-sounding but nefarious super PAC determined to keep Glenn Youngkin out of the governor’s office by any means necessary. The PAC had a particularly dastardly plot, even by the low standards we’ve come to expect […]
A federal judge ruled today that Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology’s admissions policy illegally discriminates against Asian Americans. U.S. District Judge Claude Hilton declared that the Fairfax County School Board resorted to impermissible “racial balancing” when they decided to scrap a traditional standardize test students worked so hard to ace. In its […]
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) tore into his own caucus Tuesday. Kinzinger slammed the House Republicans’ official Twitter account for calling President Biden weak following his administration’s new sanctions against Russia. Mere hours later, Putin launched a land, sea and air invasion of Ukraine. This is what weakness on the world stage looks like. pic.twitter.com/0Krq48gbIy — House Republicans […]
