Dick Polman: Pam Bondi has me pining for Janet Reno

I found it perversely entertaining watching shrieking she-devil Pam Bondi as she sought to defend her dirtbag tenure at the Department of Pedophile Protection.

Kaitlyn Buss: The Guthrie search shows what’s possible. Can we make it the standard?

If there’s any chance Nancy Guthrie’s assailant will not be found, it won’t be for lack of awareness. Her disappearance has mobilized extraordinary attention nationwide.

Letter to the editor: Let ICE agents do their jobs

The violence and vitriol directed at ICE agents is entirely misplaced. In their anger, protesters are ignoring a fundamental truth: Agents do not create policy; they enforce it.

Letter to the editor: Year of the Horse — the Year of Assimilation

As we celebrate the Chinese New Year and enter the Year of the Horse, it is worth pausing to reflect on what this moment might quietly offer us. In Chinese culture, the horse represents strength, steadiness and the courage to move forward even when the path is uncertain. A single...

Christopher Magra: How a 22-year-old George Washington learned how to lead, from a series of mistakes in the Pa. wilderness

This Presidents Day, I’ve been thinking about George Washington − not at his finest hour, but possibly at his worst. In 1754, a 22-year-old Washington marched into the wilderness surrounding Pittsburgh with more ambition than sense. He volunteered to travel to the Ohio Valley on a mission to deliver a...
