If it weren't for the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Dallas Cowboys would be the most disappointing team of the 2024 NFL season. Sure, the Cowboys are .500 at 3-3, but that's a particularly bad .500, especially after many picked them to win the NFC East and potentially even the whole conference. Of...

Details continue to emerge, and we cannot know for sure what happened, but this case features such grotesque apparent injustices that, without indulging in unwarranted speculation, and assuming the truth of what we know so far, it does seem to constitute part of a larger pattern of attack against parents...

The story never changes: another day, another phony racism scandal from the establishment media. Fortunately, more and more Americans have awakened to the game and now refuse to play it on the media's terms. Tuesday on the social media platform X, former NFL linebacker Will Compton, co-host of Barstool Sports's...

Establishment Democrats support open borders, endless wars, censorship, medical mandates, political persecution, child mutilation and other totalitarian horrors. Thus, when they pose as your moral superiors, you have many ways to expose their hypocrisy. For instance, during a debate on Tuesday, Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas gave as good...

So it turns out that former President Donald Trump was right when he said that crime is up significantly under the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration. Recently revised FBI data proves it so. During the Sept. 10 presidential debate, Trump said, "Crime is down all over the world, except here. Crime...

As Nov. 5 looms, Vice President Kamala Harris has a new problem: plagiarism. On Monday, activist Chris Rufo posted a thread to social media platform X in which he shared evidence from an investigation that Harris had plagiarized  "at least a dozen sections" of her 2009 book, "Smart on Crime."...

Kids are not running for public office, enacting laws, litigating policy, or even voting, and yet children often bear the weightiest consequences for the bad policies adults implement.  “I get angry when kids are victimized because adults refuse to do the right thing,” says Katy Faust, the founder and president of the pro-children advocacy organization Them Before Us. “It’s an injustice at the individual level and at the national level.” If protecting the well-being of children were the first priority of adults in public policy-related decisions, all of society would benefit, Faust contends. Sadly, adults have repeatedly chosen to place their own gratification in marriage, family formation, economic policies, border politics, and so on, ahead of the interests of kids.  “Adult-centric policy,” Faust says, is policy that gratifies “adults in the immediate, but then kids have to pay the price.” Take, for example, the issue of marriage. For decades now, phrases like “kids are resilient,” and “children just need love” have been used to justify adult decisions to divorce, cohabit with a partner, or marry a same-sex partner. In reality, these nice phrases are nothing more than permission slips for adult desires to override the interests of children, she says.  “Unfortunately, when you see that transformation away from a child-centric understanding of marriage toward an adult-centric understanding of marriage, children are victimized,” she says. In vitro fertilization has recently taken center stage as a major issue in the 2024 presidential election with both Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican candidate Donald Trump declaring their fervent support for the practice. Yet neither candidate acknowledges that thousands of embryos that were created through IVF, and that are fully capable of life, will be put into a freezer and “often don’t come out,” Faust says.  Faust, the author of a number of books—including her latest, “Pro-Child Politics: Why Every Cultural, Economic, and National Issue Is a Matter of Justice for Children”—joins “Problematic Women” to discuss the ways political agendas consistently harm children in the name of adult gratification.  Listen to the podcast below or watch the show above.
