The Time for a Civil-Rights Audit is Now

By Adam Kissel, Author of Slacking: A Guide to Ivy League Miseducation

The stakes are too high for universities to play chicken with federal investigators.

The best time for a university to perform a civil-rights audit was two full years ago, right after the Supreme Court announced its decisions in the Students for Fair Admissions cases. The next best time is now. In short, the Supreme Court wrote in 2023, "Eliminating racial discrimination means eliminating all of it." Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act has long been interpreted to ban racial discrimination across all of a university's programs and activities. About equally ominous for colleges that ignore this legal obligation is the prospect that the IRS will fully and vigorously enforce its rule that "a school that does not have a racially nondiscriminatory policy as to students does not qualify as an organization exempt from Federal income tax." Bad curriculum and civil rights violations are linked through the leftism and "oppressor-oppressed" themed activist indoctrination in today's colleges. [more...]

Navigating the AI Revolution - Regulation

By Todd Sheets, Author of 2008: What Really Happened

In this article, I’ll add some perspective and balance to the doomsday scenarios affecting public debate, refocus the discussion on what we can and do know about AI, and show that much of the growing bipartisan antipathy toward Big Tech was created not by failures of the tech companies themselves, but rather by the political activists now trying to regulate their way into control of this critically important sector. While there's no way of knowing exactly where AI will lead us, the long arc of human history affords far more reasons for optimism than for pessimism. Rather than ceding control to political operatives who have caused many of the issues they would now like to regulate, we will be far better off if our AI future is guided by consumer choice in a manner that is capable of unleashing a new era of upward mobility and protection from authoritarian repression, both abroad and at home.

The Tariff Trump Hasn't Tried Yet - A Market Access Charge on Foreign Capital Could Tame the Dollar and Boost U.S. Manufacturing

By Kenneth Rapoza, Reporter/Columnist for Coalition for a Prosperous America

There is one tariff the Trump administration has never mentioned. And that is a tariff on foreign capital inflows buying U.S. stocks and bonds. Could it be a tool to stabilize the dollar, balance trade, and raise revenue to curtail an ever-rising fiscal deficit? Yes, it can. In a June 24 op-ed in the Financial Times of all places, columnist Martin Wolf toyed with the idea: "If the U.S. wants to accelerate a worldwide discussion with a policy intervention, the obvious one would be a tax on capital inflows." The fact that Wolf mentions this at all in a reasonable way speaks volumes. We can say he is warming people up to the possibility. That alone is groundbreaking. [more...]

Obama Judge Overrides Congress, Big Beautiful Bill

By Daniel Greenfield, Author of Domestic Enemies

Judicial coup expands.

I missed the part of the Constitution that allows federal judges to override the president, and now apparently congressional legislation, because of their 'feelings.' Judge Indira Talwani, an Obama appointee, previously declared that all the illegal aliens could remain here because "it is not in the public interest to manufacture a circumstance in which hundreds of thousands of individuals will, over the course of several months, become unlawfully present in the country." Talwani has now topped herself. A federal judge on Monday granted Planned Parenthood's request to temporarily halt Medicaid funding cuts to the group's health centers under a provision of Republicans' new tax and spending package.

Is Superman Really an Illegal Immigrant?

By Greg Rabidoux, Award-Winning Filmmaker, Author & Cultural Commentator

...and would we arrest and deport him back to planet Krypton?

The newest Superman reboot is crash-landing to planet Earth soon. But will we accept the "Man of Steel" or arrest him and send him back in shackles? These seem to be just the kind of questions which Director James Gunn doesn't just welcome but encourages. No stranger to controversy, Gunn, who was fired from 'Guardians of the Galaxy 3' for his tweets which mocked and diminished the evils of pedophilia, the Holocaust, and rape, is unapologetic about the politics of his Superman. He asserts that anyone who doesn't like the film's politics, which seem to slant pro-immigration and anti-ICE/Trump are "jerks" and can go "screw off." [more...]

 

AI is Going to Burn the Grift Economy to the Ground

By Kerry Lutz, Host of Financial Survival Network

Construction, medicine, education say goodbye to the scams.

In the industries that matter most - building, healthcare, and education - grift has become the business model. But now, AI is the wrecking ball, and it’s aimed right at the heart of the scam. The revolution won't be televised. It'll be logged, timestamped, drone-scanned, and block-chained. Let's walk through the collapse... [more...]
