The radical “Equality Act”

The New Neo Posted on February 26, 2021 by neoFebruary 26, 2021

The quality of mercy

The New Neo Posted on February 24, 2021 by neoFebruary 24, 2021

Remove that blindfold: a metaphor for “equity”

Remember back when Merrick Garland was described as being a moderate?

The New Neo Posted on February 23, 2021 by neoFebruary 23, 2021

SCOTUS refuses to hear the Pennsylvania cases that challenge the constitutionality of the voting changes

The New Neo Posted on February 22, 2021 by neoFebruary 22, 2021

The New Neo Posted on February 19, 2021 by neoFebruary 19, 2021

…if it was a joke. But this is not the Babylon Bee, and this is not the Onion. What am I referring to? It’s so awful that even some Democrats are angry at the bill’s sponsors. The bill is called … Continue reading →

Is Cuomo in trouble?

The New Neo Posted on February 18, 2021 by neoFebruary 18, 2021

You may have noticed that I haven’t written many posts about the brouhaha surrounding Governor Cuomo of New York and the nursing homes. There are so many stories these days that I can’t deal with them all, and that particular … Continue reading →

Here’s some highly recommended video from Frei and Barnes

The New Neo Posted on February 16, 2021 by neoFebruary 16, 2021

Officer Sicknick’s death: the only surprise here is that the NY Times actually issued any sort of retraction at all, even a mild one

The New Neo Posted on February 15, 2021 by neoFebruary 15, 2021

I’ve been writing about the problems with the story about Capitol Police Officer Sicknick’s cause of death since just a few days after it happened. It was clear even then that the report that Officer Sicknick had been hit in … Continue reading →
