Thomas Massie isn’t acting like a defeated man. After losing the most expensive primary race in American history last month, largely thanks to pro-Israel figures and groups spending millions to defeat him (according to the Federal Election Commission, Massie received donations from 1,119 individuals actually living in Kentucky, compared to only 98 for his opponent Ed Gallrein), Massie announced just days later, “I filed with FEC for the 2028 House race.” He explained, “This allows me to raise funds to continue my political operations supporting my position as a current office holder and as a potential candidate for federal office.”…

A brutal electric vehicle (EV) price war driven by a long list of subsidized competitors created a race to the bottom of pricing. That scenario has eroded margins across the industry and forced many domestic automakers to ramp up their exports to Europe and other countries to support growth. Nio (NIO 5.80%), strangely enough, has been thriving while doing the opposite: still focusing on China. Goodbye golden era According to Nio CEO, William Li, China’s automotive market has moved past its “golden…
It goes without saying that with major professional sports in North America, the National Football League is the undisputed king. (In fact, some could argue that the second biggest “professional” sport in America is now college football.) That crown for the NFL comes from a combination of ratings — the Super Bowl is more or less the most viewed event every year on television — and the accompanying exorbitant ticket prices that come along with such demand. For years now, the NBA, NHL, and MLB have all been trying to play catch-up with the NFL, and have been attempting a…

There are plenty of committed antisemites out there who really believe that the Jews and Israel control the world and cause all its problems. These crackpots have always existed. Way back in the 19th century, August Bebel characterized antisemitism as “the socialism of fools.” It is still that: Many socialist fools who know nothing about the Middle East have become virulent anti-Israel bigots, with some crossing the line to overt and unapologetic antisemitism. The Democratic Socialists of America requires its members to be anti-Israel, regardless of what Israel does or doesn’t do. That is the blatant bigotry of fools, even…
