By Wayne Allensworth In Act 3, Scene 2 of King Henry IV, part II, Shakespeare’s grand comic knave, Falstaff, reminisces about old times with his friend Justice Shallow, particularly a memorable night more than 50 years in the past. They recall a woman, Jane Nightwork, who, like Falstaff and Shallow, has fallen victim to advancing age, as time flows on, and the chimes will eventually toll for the...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) If you want to know why the California Supreme Court’s ruling in 1972 that temporarily stopped the death penalty was such a disaster not only for crime victims but also for justice itself, the state’s Second District Court of Appeal has provided some insight. The court has freed Leslie Van Houten, who murdered Leno and Rosemary LaBianca on August 9, 1969...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) Despite the leftist mainstream media’s best effort to hide the truth about the hate-Trump Russia Collusion Hoax hatched by Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign team, the truth surfaced thanks to the investigation and prosecutions of Special Counsel John Durham. Clinton torpedoes paid for British spy Christopher Steele to manufacture his famous...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) Tucker Carlson has spoken publicly for the first time since his departure from Fox News. He didn’t say anything about the remarkable move by the network — but he did say what most Americans intuitively know about modern political debate: Much if not most of it is pointless. That somewhat reprises the message in the speech he delivered at the Heritage...
by R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) Most leftist media speculated that Fox News fired Tucker Carlson for three reasons: a sexual harassment lawsuit; his commentary about the mostly peaceful protest at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2023; and the network’s almost $800 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. But Vanity Fair has offered a different one: During a...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) Hunter Biden had a spy inside the FBI who tipped off his Chinese business partners about investigations into their shady if not illegal activities, and the Israeli man who knows the story about the renegade G-man — or woman — is in jail. Gal Luft, once a lieutenant colonel in the Israeli army with connections to U.S. and Chinese intelligence, the New...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) An American judge famously said a grand jury would “indict a ham sandwich, if that’s what you wanted,” but it appears that the grand jury in Manhattan won’t indict former POTUS 45 Donald J. Trump. For the second day, the grand jury did not meet, apparently because hate-Trump Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg believes it might not indict...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) When New York State Attorney General Letitia James and 11 Democratic elected officials join a drag queen story hour three days from now, the message will be clear. Organized child groomers will have a major power-base inside not only the state Legislature, but also the state’s top law enforcement office. The purpose of the show: To seduce children into...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) So now in England a Christian minister won’t just be convicted of a crime if he “misgenders” a “trans woman,” the trendy neologism for a man who pretends to be a woman, or is mentally ill and thinks he is one. The trouble for 42-year-old David McConnell, a property manager and part-time street preacher, was much worse. He didn’t just trespass the new rules...
By R. Cort Kirkwood (The New American) At long last, “the most trusted name in news” has confessed that the China Virus might have escaped from a lab at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. But CNN’s grudging admission about the U.S.Energy Department’s “low-confidence” assessment, which “raises more questions than answers,” won’t make up for the network’s pushing the...
