The funniest thing about the Secret Service decrying James O'Keefe's honeypot sting tactics -- as "targeted and manipulated" is that sources tell me that Secret Service leaders recently launched their own attempted yet failed sting operation to try to uncover my sources within the agency. In a plan authorized by Secret Service Director Sean Curran himself, I'm told agents posed as journalists fishing for derogatory information on the USSS to try to find out who is leaking to me. The effort failed and provided a lesson for most Secret Service sources inside and outside the agency. They know I would go to jail to protect them -- and that I have not and would never give up their identities


As the people of Iran brave another intensifying crackdown by their rulers after another effort to reclaim their basic rights from one of the world's most repressive regimes, my question is: Where are the protests in the West? Specifically, where are all those defenders of persecuted Muslims who have been so active on the streets of New York, London, Sydney, Rome and elsewhere the past two years? Where are the demands for justice and freedom for the downtrodden victims of a brutally repressive state? What is so different about the cause they have been espousing in their demonstrations over Gaza and the cause of the millions of innocent coreligionists 1,000 miles to their east? Those kaffiyeh-wearing, banner-waving, slogan-chanting activists say they were moved to protest, sometimes violently and unlawfully, by the plight of Muslims dispossessed of their lands and livelihoods, immiserated, starved, beaten and murdered by a savage regime.

In his recent viral essay, "The Lost Generation," published in Compact, Jacob Savage describes how U.S. media and academia in the 2010s closed their doors to millennial white men. The self-righteous, racist ideology of diversity, equity and inclusion wasn't a problem only within those rarified fields. It also infected the U.S. armed forces. Under President Biden, senior officers worked to make our military less white, precipitating a recruitment crisis. read more


The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments Tuesday in Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.P.J., which challenge laws that reserve women's and girls' sports divisions in government schools exclusively for females. The great majority of Americans recognize that because men are generally far taller, heavier, faster and stronger than women, co-ed competition is unfair in most sports. But more is at stake than fairness. Those same physical differences mean that allowing male bodies on the court with girls or women is dangerous. We don't allow children to play contact sports with adults because of the obvious physical risk. Similarly, though some variability exists within the male and female pools, the normal range of physical traits differs so widely between the sexes that allowing men to compete in women's sports will inevitably expose women to a heightened risk of physical harm. read more

My guess is the man who is apprehended by ICE in this video is a victim and the ICE agent who went to the hospital for a neck injury wasn't actually injured. All according to Democrats, the left and MSM (forgive the redundancy).
