Clint Eastwood told me the secret of his success on the set of”Space Cowboys”in 1999. It was my first studio movie, and he was gracious enough to let me hang around and watch him produce the script I’d co-written for him. For a newbie Hollywood writer, it was a life-changing experience, and every chance I...
Do you ever look at a cardboard box and think, “That’s a nice one — I should keep that just in case?” I know I do, and when I asked my social media following the same, there was an outpouring of corrugated love. As more commerce has moved online, we are interacting with more packaging...
In a rare venture off her carefully crafted “script,” Vice President Kamala Harris commented on this week’s tragic school shooting in Winder, Georgia which left four dead and nine hospitalized. At her campaign rally in New Hampshire, Harris called the incident “a senseless tragedy,” and went on to lament that students have to be “concerned...

But the two of us have spoken at length with its former president in 2022, and he tells a very different story. Far from saving Guatemala, the...
Not one question Tuesday night about the execution of Hersh Goldberg-Polin and five other hostages two weeks ago, or about any of the Americans murdered by Hamas terrorists on October 7? Not one question on Iran, which is within weeks of acquiring a nuclear weapon and which is paying and perhaps precisely directing repeated attacks...
The biggest loser in the first (and likely only) presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump was ABC News, which hosted the faceoff. The moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, embarrassed themselves and their network by, among other things, fact-checking Trump in real time on more than one occasion – sometimes...
Kamala Harris and her allies are highlighting her prior experience as San Francisco’s district attorney. She ran away from it during the 2020 primary as anti-police fervor swept the Democratic Party, but now it’s a selling point. They use it in ads to call her “tough.” This couldn’t be further from the truth. The case...
Sweet Briar College confirmed this month it would limit admissions offers to women. This was a first-of-its-kind reassurance to women for the women’s college, which prior to 2024 found no reason to institute gender qualifications to attend their obviously single-sex school. Sweet Briar’s Board of Directorsexplained that because their founder specifically ordered the establishment of...
