THE PENTAGON — Following a recent revelation that the terrorist organization ISIS plans to target US military members, officers especially, the Department of Defense is requiring troops to choose clothing which will better blend in with the general population during off-duty hours.

That’s because past polling has been so inaccurate. Just look at the Brexit polls!  About six in 10 Americans are confident that votes will be accurately cast and counted in the coming election. This is similar to their confidence level in 2008, but down from levels from 2004 to 2007 when confidence ranged between 71%

This is quite controversial.  “Transhumanism is becoming more respectable, and transhumanism, with a small t, is rapidly emerging through conventional mainstream avenues,” Eve Herold reports in her astute new book, Beyond Human. Small-t transhumanism is the belief or theory that the human race will evolve beyond its current physical and mental limitations, especially by means of deliberate

Auburn University dismissed running back Jovon Robinson—formerly the No. 1 junior college player in the country—after a female student accused him of assaulting her. “He did not meet my expectations of what it takes to be an Auburn Tiger football player,” said head coach Guz Malzahn, according to al.com. But Robinson never assaulted anyone. His purported

Four of these five have no business being called “academic programs” since they teach a Vocational – Technical degree and not education (how to think; how to learn).  In the ever-changing landscape of higher education, programs come and go.

In an interview on Sean Hannity’s Fox News show, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said Wednesday that he was set to release thousands of cables with Hillary Clinton’s signature on them, along with one little letter in her handwriting that could seal her coffin for good. The new batch of cables, according to Assange, shows Clinton

The progressive brought us here: where marriage is meaningless in their eyes.  It sounds like a joke, but it is not entirely. Still recoiling from the insanity of marriage between two people of the same sex, we are told that people — women largely — are now marrying themselves. That’s right: having the dress, the ring, umpteen

I’ve written more than 100 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests over the past few years, as well as a newsletter on FOIA policy, so it caused me great pain to read the headline over at Vox on Tuesday: “Against Transparency: Government officials’ email should be private, just like their phone calls.” Vox’s Matt Yglesias writes that, in

Can you imagine? Not waking a child up for a 3 minute shopping break! The horrors!  Pitchforks are so 19th century. Today’s righteous mobs wield cell phone videos and Facebook likes. Here’s the video of a baby whose mom decided against dragging him into the gas station for a short errand. Instead she let wait in the

More on the state’s inability to leave its citizens alone.  For the past 25 years, Shawnee Chasser has lived in a treehouse in Florida. Now, the Miami-Dade County code enforcement office says it has to come down. Officials say it doesn’t meet local building codes, which are strict because of the possibility of hurricanes, and it doesn’t

According to Gallup, Americans’ support for the Affordable Care Act remains basically unchanged since May; 44% currently approve of the law. Nearly three in 10 Americans say the law has hurt their family, the highest Gallup has measured to date..  In a summer that saw many insurers drop out of the Affordable Care Act’s health insurance

Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson will be on the ballot in all 50 states but will almost certainly not be on stage for the presidential debates that start at the end of September. And yet a new poll shows that the former governor of New Mexico is in double digits in no fewer than 42 states. In

More U.S. adults now than in recent years want the government to play a major role in improving the position of minority groups in the U.S. However, the 38% who favor this idea is similar to what Gallup measured in 2004 and 2005.   As both major party presidential candidates tout ways their policies will
