Joondeph: When did changing weather become climate change?

By Dr. Brian C. Joondeph | Commentary, American Thinker It’s sunny and unseasonably warm where I am today, but a week ago, it was snowy and unseasonably cold. A climate warrior might label the former as global warming, the latter as global cooling, or the composite as climate change. A rational person would call it weather.

Green: The biggest peacetime crime and coverup in British history

By Dominic Green | Commentary, The Free Press LONDON — The grooming and serial rape of thousands of English girls by men of mostly Pakistani Muslim background over several decades is the biggest peacetime crime in the history of modern Europe. It went on for many years. It is still going on. And there has been no justice for the vast majority of the victims. British governments, both Conservative and Labour, hoped that they had buried the story after a few symbolic prosecutions in the 2010s. And it looked like they had succeeded—until Elon Musk read some of the court papers and tweeted his disgust and bafflement on X over the new year. Britain now stands shamed before the world. The public’s suppressed wrath is bubbling to the surface in petitions, calls for a publi...

Murray: From college campuses to Afghanistan, we let Islamic terrorism rise again

By Douglas Murray | Commentary, New York Post Let’s all give a big shout-out to the “Globalize the intifada” crowd. You got your way! Congratulations. Hope it feels good. For years, citizens of Israel have had maniac jihadists driving at them and trying to mow them down on their streets. But this got only cheers from the dolts on US college campuses and New York street protesters. Then, just before Christmas, Germany again got a taste of this “intifada.” That was when a Saudi immigrant decided to plow a vehicle through a previously happy Christmas market. He killed five people and injured almost 200.

Browning: Where we’ve been and how it’s going in the ‘Great Colorado Wolf Experiment’

By Lindy Browning | Contributing Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice It’s been just more than a year since Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) began implementing the 2020 narrowly-approved Proposition 114 to reintroduce the gray wolf.  So far, there doesn’t seem to be anyone who is calling the effort a success. CPW employees are being ostracized in their communities, ranchers and livestock growers are taking significant losses, people on the Western Slope feel stomped on by Front Range voters and state government officials’ progressive agendas. Even the wolves themselves are suffering, all over a decision made by emotional voters who have no expertise in either wildlife management or predator/prey relationships, and who were not given all the information that they needed to mak...

Letter: Threats and intimidation have been used to gain influence

The attack in New Orleans, killing and injuring many, was the plot by a terrorist, motivated by one's hate and disbelief in this country's freedom. Unfortunately, recent generations have proven to be one of placing blame, dislike, demand and entitlement, supported by disruption, chaos and destruction. In New Orleans, there is some mention of the police superintendent to resign. My question would be "why?" Then, let's be extreme. No more celebrations of any kind such as the Mardi Gras, Thanksgiving Day parades, and other special events on any public property. As a result, no blame can be placed on law enforcement and security officials for hateful acts of others.  Civil disobedience (riots in a realistic term) funded by the likes of George Soros (who is receiving the Presidential...

Gaines: The people doing ag in this state need to speak up for each other

By Cory Gaines | Guest Commentary, Colorado Accountability Project Whether you run cattle on the Western Slope of Colorado or you grow forage on the Plains, there are precious few people in Colorado in Production Ag, while there seems a never-ending list of advocates — paid, volunteer, and sometimes from out of state — who are speaking up in support of things that either have the potential to harm producers or that will most assuredly harm them. Listen to any CPW commissioners meeting and you’ll have no trouble at all seeing what I mean. I have heard from people in the past that testifying is a challenge because of jobs, lack of technology, and lack of know how. I understand the constraints and so I made this quick guide to help ease some of those problems, to help you find ways t...

Sloan: Is Trudeau, who has presided over disaster, exiting stage left?

By Kelly Sloan | Contributing Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice This made the rounds a couple weeks ago: President-elect Trump, fresh off of announcing his intention to impose a 25% tariff on Candidian goods, reportedly floated to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau the idea of absorbing Canada into the Republic as the 51st state. True to form, he immortalized the offer as a clever image on his social media website, Truth Social. The suggestion, everyone knows, was not serious. Trump stands a better chance of buying Greenland from the Danes (a proposal he recently resurrected, this one perhaps semi-seriously.) But it speaks volumes, both to the embattled Canadian PM’s posture in general, and the incoming President’s disdain for him. And given the governing record of the Trudeau ...

Fields: ‘If politicians won’t do it, the people still can’

By Michael Fields | Commentary, Denver Gazette Grassroots Coloradans made their voices heard in 2024. The year was marked by voters across the political spectrum demanding commonsense reforms to address real-world problems — including sky-high property taxes and soaring crime rates — that the far-left Legislature wanted to duck. It was a reminder to elected officials that the people are ultimately in charge. The citizen initiative process acts as a safety valve when the men and women we elect are disconnected from the everyday concerns and challenges facing their constituents. Too often legislators are ideologically resistant to reforms that are urgently needed. READ THE FULL COMMENTARY AT THE DENVER GAZETTE Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in commentary pieces are t...

Kaminsky: Obama’s ‘censorship’ office goes bankrupt and is closing up shop

By Gabe Kaminsky | Commentary, The Daily Signal The Global Engagement Center, an office housed within the State Department and aiming to thwart disinformation and misinformation, has been forced by Congress to close up shop. It’s no mystery why; the taxpayer-backed GEC violated its mandate to work only overseas and devolved into a partisan enabler of speech suppression in the United States. Here’s how. Founded in 2016 and technically the product of an Obama-era executive order on counterterrorism, the GEC lapsed in December and lost congressional funding.

McGreevy: Media experts predict where professional liar KJP will end up next

By Robert McGreevy | Commentary, Daily Caller With the Biden presidency weeks away from its conclusion, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre will be out of a job soon, and a panel of media luminaries gave the Daily Caller their idea of what she might do next. The consensus seemed to be that KJP, despite being considered by many to have performed poorly at her White House gig, will likely find safe harbor as a contributor on a cable news program, just like her predecessor Jen Psaki.  “She’ll go where all the other failed Hollywood actors go when they’re useless to the deep state: a cable chat show that exclusively exists to sell weird books and products to lonely women,” Daily Caller alum and media veteran Kay Hill said.
