Farewell, Prince Philip
Last week, Buckingham Palace announced that Prince Philip, husband to Queen Elizabeth II for nearly 75 years, had passed away aged 99. Although the royal family has had no formal role in governing these shores since early-July of 1776, it maintains an intriguing and even fascinating grip on a part of the American psyche. While […]
The Weakening of American Culture
There are many values of the average conservative that used to be cornerstones of the United States. Our country was founded with religious ideals in mind, as explained by John Adams: “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion….Our Constitution was made only for a […]

SATIRE: Conservatives Are to Blame for France’s Hijab Ban
*Puts on serious face* On April 1, France’s Senate voted in favor of a new “Separatism Law,” the most controversial part of which was a ban on wearing a hijab in public for those under 18.

The first time I ever heard Rush Limbaugh’s name was probably when I was around 10 years old. My grandpa was ranting about politics over the phone when my mom asked him sarcastically, “And everyone is wrong except for Rush Limbaugh, right, dad?” Growing up, my parents would normally describe him as a cooky conservative […]
The Troubling Trend of Executive Overreach
On his first day in office, newly-inaugurated President Joe Biden signed 17 executive orders. In his first week, he signed 37. In the same period of time Donald Trump signed four executive orders, Barack Obama signed five and George W. Bush signed zero. Perhaps Biden is attempting to maximize his output while he is still […]
Why the Left Even Bothered with a Second Impeachment
From the very start of the Biden administration, the proposal for unity made its way into the Democrats’ ultimate goal. They claim that all they want now is to unify with their fellow brothers and sisters under one administration that will set us all free of systemic racism, white male oppression, a horrible pandemic, and […]
Reopen Chicago: How the CTU is Harming Students
On March 13, 2020, the Chicago Public Schools schools suspended in-person instruction due to the coronavirus outbreak. Many CPS students, such as myself, were disappointed at the prospect of losing another two weeks of our academic year, which had already been cut short by a 14-day teachers’ strike orchestrated by the Chicago Teachers Union in […]
