It’s unsurprising, though:
LIFE IN BIDEN/HARRIS’S JOYFUL AMERICA:
The purpose of terrorism is to terrorize and it’s being used with impunity against American citizens on our own streets. This isn’t just a Jewish issue others can dismiss. It’s an American issue. https://t.co/6HeBbxWD7X

And the terrorism, as is usually the case, is government-enabled.
FERTILITY CRISIS:
The collapsing birth rate is actually way worse than you think.
One of the biggest things I've realized since becoming a father 3 months ago is that I spend an obscene amount of time thinking about the future.
This is because I want my child to have the best possible place to…

WOKE BILL COMES DUE: Columbia Agonistes.
Words scarcely express what relief it was to finally escape Columbia University to turn whistleblower early last year. For the previous eleven years, across a range of prestigious schools, I was a reporter and PR flack charged with making people look good whether they deserved it or not, and oftentimes they didn’t. No doubt I promoted a bunch of dazzlingly impressive minds, but I also helped cover up for a lot of sloppy and misleading scholarship and no small amount of outright prejudice.
Today I stand especially relieved to have jumped ship ahead of Columbia’s calamitous past academic year, by far the most tumultuous and consequential in the university’s history since the notorious riots of 1968. It’s been “an even bigger sh1t show than Mattress Girl,” as I quipped on Twitter. Blow by blow, humiliation by humiliation, my heart has gone out to all of my former colleagues in the impossible position of trying to preserve Columbia’s reputation when it so manifestly deserves most of the embarrassing headlines and withering criticism.
Get woke, go broke.
WELL, THAT’S BECAUSE IT’S SHAMEFUL AND CORRUPT: “It can be dizzying, for an outsider, to see the Democratic Party and its allied institutions walk in lockstep — promoting a fiction that Biden ‘passed the torch’ voluntarily.”
And you don’t want to admit that so many institutions in our society are shameful and corrupt. But they are.
WELL, THAT WOULD BE IN CHARACTER BOTH FOR THIS ADMINISTRATION AND FOR THE IRS IN GENERAL: Is the Biden Admin Hanging the IRS Whistleblowers Who Exposed its Misconduct Out to Dry?
