President Donald Trump’s escalation of his rhetorical assaulton Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Thursday did not go over well with GOP senators, but it appears to have the approval of the conservative activist base.
After sending three separate tweets tweaking McConnell over the failure to repeal Obamacare last month, Trump hit the senator during a pair of separate news conferences in Bedminster, New Jersey. He came close to calling for McConnell to step down as Senate Republican leader.
“Well, I’ll tell you what, if he doesn’t get repeal and replace done, and if he doesn’t get taxes done — meaning cuts and reform — and if he doesn’t get a very easy one to get done, infrastructure, if he doesn’t get them done, then you can ask me that question,” he said.
Trump made clear he remains upset over the way McConnell handled the health care debate.
"But I said, 'Mitch, get to work and let's get it done,'" he said. "They should have had this last one done. They lost by...
A myriad of distinguished professors and social scientists have already confirmed what James Damore wrote in his Google memo: men and women are measurably different.
The Google guy behind the infamous gender memo, James Damore, is a troglodyte. An embarrassing, knuckle-dragging, flat-earther who is under the silly illusion that men and women have inherent differences. Google properly fired him for just being stupid. At least that’s the fashionable story.
But the truth is that it was Damore who got it right. (And his main concern was how to get more women working at Google, after all.)
Most of us know exactly why gender parity doesn’t exist in Silicon Valley. It’s not because they are consciously (or unconsciously) denying employment to women who are seeking jobs there. Actually, quite the opposite. It’s the fact that while women outpace men in college attendance today, those interested in STEM programs lag significantly behind. Other professions tend to interest them more. In fact, the annual U.S. News/Raytheon STEM Index reported last year that enrollment among women in such programs declined from 2015 to 2016.
U.S. News reports that “Women may lag behind men in areas like engineering, for example, but they far outstrip men in earning biology degrees.” For instance, women make up 80 percent of the students enrolled in the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine. Wendy Williams, a professor in Cornell’s Department of Human Development, explains that “Women are choosing to...
Nearly 20 people were convicted on Wednesday of abusing girls in Newcastle, U.K. — part of an orchestrated rape gang operated by Muslim men.
In total, 17 Muslim men and a native-British female accomplice were convicted of over 100 charges stemming from crimes against 22 victims. Court documents reveal how the gang groomed British teen girls with drugs and alcohol before subjecting them to “sessions” in which they were raped by multiple men.
But the extent of the rape gang and its crimes could be significantly larger. Despite the convictions the investigation is still ongoing, and the 18 individuals convicted Wednesday may be but a fraction of those involved. Investigators have so far made a total of 461 arrests,...
