Our Failed Covid Response
A long but excellent history and analysis of perhaps the greatest public-policy blunder in history.
The Democrats’ Problems
They can’t fix them by November.
Yes, you can’t climb out of a hole that you’ve been digging for years in six months (even if you have the sense to even stop digging, which they don’t seem to have). This is bad news for an ever-terrible political party, but good news for the Republic.
Trans Ideology
How it dehumanizes women.
Brendan O’Neill made the sacrifice of reading a vile heap of insanity from a Berkeley professor, so you didn’t have to.
Footprints On The Moon
Why should we care about them?
It’s Earth Day Again
I know I’ve managed to do so.
Covid Closures
How they took a toll on the kids.
Many of us frustrated by the lengthy school closures were enraged by a statement we found far too dismissive and even callous: “Kids are resilient.” (The great Mary Katharine Ham tore this apart back in January.) All too often, that was a blasé slogan designed to excuse an intolerable status quo.
Our kids aren’t necessarily resilient, and we didn’t like having their need to be resilient shoved upon them by teachers’ unions who kept dragging their feet on reopening schools and public-health officials who deemed birthday parties, travel, summer camps, visiting grandparents, etc. an intolerable risk.
Infuriating.
Progressive Intellectual Life
