By Jonathon Van Maren Ever since the trash-talking (and over-rated) George Carlin used his comedy stand-up tours to engage in longwinded and profanity-laced defences of abortion, edgy comedians seeking to shock and offend have followed in his footsteps in an attempt to use their platforms to fire up support for feticide. Sarah Silverman triggered widespread…
By Jonathon Van Maren An NBC/Wall Street poll released earlier this week bodes ill for America’s future, despite a booming economy. A full 43% of Americans think that the system is only working for the rich and powerful, and when asked if “feelings of anger” describe them “very well” since 2015, the answer was a resounding yes: 48%…

As we rounded a bend, it suddenly loomed up before us, a massive, sturdy structure, built to last centuries and…
By Jonathon Van Maren Since relaunching the #MeToo movement in October of 2017, Alyssa Milano has been popping up everywhere. A onetime TV actress and now activist, she showed up at the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, responded to state-level abortion restrictions by suggesting a sex strike (a proposal pro-life leaders heartily endorsed), and has campaigned against pro-life…

By Jonathon Van Maren Remember when LGBT activists used to get outraged at the insinuation that they would support the sexualization of children? Yeah, those were the good old days.
