Fred Warmbier had some harsh things to say about the Obama administration.  Mr. Warmbier's son, Otto, was detained in North Korea after being sentenced to 15 years hard labor when he allegedly tried to steal a propaganda poster. Today, Otto, who has been in a coma for almost a year, is back on U.S. soil. No thanks to the Obama administration.  While speaking in a press conference Friday…

Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's. Tim Farron, the leader of the Liberal Democrat party in the U.K. Parliament, struggled to follow this teaching of Jesus Christ for two years. The Christian leader even publicly held left-leaning positions on same-sex-marriage and abortion, but, in the end, even this was not enough.  On Wednesday, Farron resigned from his leadership…

Friends, Losers, Countrymen, lend me your ears!  William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar is getting a Trumpian make-over by the Public Theater in New York City. In the production, Caesar wears a suit and a comb-over, and looks a little too much like the current president. If that wasn't enough, the Roman emperor, played by Gregg Henry, gesticulates just like Trump and his wife, Caplurnia, has a…

Mya Berry, a Wisconsin student, is petitioning to rename her high school because it is named after historical figure who owned slaves.  Who is it? Robert E. Lee?  Nope. Ms. Berry attends James Madison Memorial High School in Verona, Wisconsin. And for her, the president, founding father, and author of the Constitution is apparently too politically incorrect to have a school bearing his name. …

Oh no! Two New Jersey high school students decided to wear pro-Trump apparel in their school photos. This looks like a job for the Thought Police! Thankfully, their classmates were spared from seeing an alternative viewpoint expressed in their yearbooks, as someone at Wall Township High School photoshopped out the logos on their t-shirts, according to a report from ABC 7 NY.  At first, junior…

Recently-confirmed Supreme Court Justice Neil Gosruch has just written his first opinion for the highest court in the land with unanimous backing from his colleagues. In the debt collection case Henson v. Santander Consumer USA Inc., Gorsuch proves that he is an originalist and a textualist like his predecessor, Justice Antonin Scalia.  The case is on a dispute over the definition of "debt…
