Re: Do Women Want to Keep the ‘W’ in the WNBA?

“If a man can be allowed to discard the defining factors of sex to take advantage of better opportunities in women’s sports, then there is nothing to stop a white person from discarding racial attributes to access programs and preferences designed for black people. One would expect the back community to have a much more powerful reaction to this than women writ large.” —California

Re: Executive Orders Mitigate the Damage on Birthright Citizenship

“You really have to wonder why the Supreme Court got it so wrong. In truth, not all of the justices got it wrong, only the liberal ones. We all know what the liberals want, so they had no choice but to go along with the Left — but that takes it beyond the legal system and the laws, not to mention the Constitution, and into the realm of politics. The Supreme Court is not supposed to do that. Yeah, it’s hard to prove, but those of us with common sense know otherwise.” —Texas

Re: The Demo/DSA v. American Liberty

“It’s apparent that the Democrat Party and its cadres in government, education, and entertainment have been advocating Marxism since the 1930s, enticing people with empty promises of utopian social perfection, and they have no other objective than the incremental destruction of our constitutional Republic. FDR hid his socialist agenda under his New Deal hat, while DNC candidates today are no longer hiding.” —North Carolina

“Here in the Shrinking Apple, we are really feeling the effects of the enlightened ignorance of young voters. I wonder if NYC will require another bailout as a result.” —New York

Re: Francesca Hong Is the DSA’s Next Dumpster Fire Candidate

“Unfortunately, the GOP hasn’t done a good enough job of exposing these idiots. Granted, exposing them would benefit the establishment Dems who are terrified of the idiots. But if we’re concerned about the rise of socialism, we need to come down hard on it. History is rife with the failures of socialism, and every day should include ads showing it. The DSA is a threat to our nation, and the GOP needs to constantly remind America of that.” —West Virginia

Re: Dems Hung Over After El-Sayed Win

“The Democrats are reaping what they have sowed. They embraced the socialists, and they got socialists/communists! Let’s hope that the people of Michigan are not going to elect this guy. But if they drink the Democrat tea, anything is possible.” —Illinois

Re: Mamdani’s Rotten Sack of Groceries

“Having served with a national grocery company for four years, there is a world of difference between the gross margin and net profit in food stores. If Zohran Mamdani does not understand this, his failure may ultimately crush New York City.” —Massachusetts

Re: An Idea Only an Academic Would Find Clever

“I recall when Barack Obama promoted a college education for everyone, which to me seemed like a calculated way to indoctrinate every young person into the ideology of the ‘anointed’ (as Thomas Sowell calls them) who think they should run everyone else’s life. Let us hope voters are onto this game and vote accordingly.” —Colorado

“Overeducated group thinkers like Samuel Moyn always do well in the low-T world. He’d make a great adviser in a James Talarico administration. Parents who have nothing good to teach their children are best off not having children in the first place, but it doesn’t work that way. And it’s far worse to have sound parenting undone by indoctrination trying to pass itself off as education.” —Oklahoma

Re: Goodbye to CRAZ, the Wisconsin Autonomous Zone

“Setting up an ‘autonomous zone’ is a form of insurrection; it is a rejection of government authority. As such, it is far more serious than noisy petitioning of Congress to investigate a presidential election before affirming it, an action that was neither an ‘insurrection’ nor ‘an attempt to overturn the election.’ The delayed response suggests that we almost saw another instance of two-tiered enforcement, until the authorities realized that the lawless behavior in the zone was not a good look.” —Minnesota

Re: Winning the Argument Is Not Enough

“Perhaps a visual image of the United States Code and Code of Federal Regulations will help, along with the statement, ‘You are expected to comply with all of this.’ The Code by itself contains 22 million words, including about 80,000 cross-references to other statutes. Just the Tax Code section, as represented in statutes, rules, and case precedents, was about 70,000 pages in 2012. Contrast that with the Bible, which contains everything we must know to obtain eternal life. Now we can make the case for repealing the entire mess and starting over after reviewing the correct historical understanding of ‘provide for … the general welfare of the United States’ and ‘regulate commerce among the states.’” —Minnesota

Re: Looking Back

“The overarching lesson from the execrable record of Anthony Fauci is that, unless we can preclude any future installment of such inept medical administrators, the odds of curing cancer, diabetes, etc. are dramatically endangered.” —Illinois

Re: The Homeless-Industrial Complex

“I was homeless for three years and addicted to drugs for most of my life. I’ve been sober for 19 months, I started my own business, and I was recently awarded a municipal contract. The reason I’m saying this is because the approach being taken to solve the problem is only fueling it.” —Colorado

Re: Profiles of Valor: LtCol Harold ‘Injun Joe’ Bauer (USMC)

“Thank you for this profile of Injun Joe. Yet another American Patriot we should never forget!” —Georgia
