The Inequality of Affirmative Action | Charlie Kirk with Heather Mac Donald

The verdict is in. A Manhattan jury found former President Donald J. Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. 

The jury deliberated only a matter of hours before making their judgment. 

Within seconds, the news was spreading all around the world, and we understand why. This is something unprecedented in American history. 

It's unprecedented in terms of the conviction. It's also unprecedented in terms of the prosecution. 

Have we now become one of those countries which routinely now prosecute former presidents? 

This is an ominous moment for the United States, especially since this particular case, this prosecution, what was known as a “zombie case.” 

An activist prosecutor picked it up, and what we had was effectively in political terms, a show trial. 

Americans are likely to recognize it for what it is and what it is is a big problem for the future of the United States of America. 

Every single one of us had better be concerned.

80th Anniversary of D-Day: An Appreciation

It was an embarrassing weekend for Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. On Face the Nation, he was confronted with some damning facts. Despite having received seven and a half billion dollars for electric vehicle charging, the Federal Highway Administration has only produced a grand total of seven—or maybe eight—EV chargers. In three years.

That’s a far cry from the fifty thousand per year necessary to reach the administration’s goal of five hundred thousand chargers by 2030.

The waste is particularly galling given Americans’ declining interest in buying electric cars. According to an April Gallup poll, only nine percent are even “seriously considering” purchasing an EV. 

Secretary Buttigieg claims that everything is on track and just fine. Perhaps that’s true for those on the receiving end of seven and a half billion dollars of taxpayer largesse. For the rest of us, this looks like nothing more than a government green grift.
