I'm sure you're familiar with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement sweep last week that netted more than 1,000 illegal immigrants working at Swift & Co. meat-processing plants last week.

Former Clinton administration national security adviser Sandy Berger Burglar pleaded guilty last year to charges that he stole classified documents from the National Archives. He was fined $50,000 and lost his security clearance for three years (just getting them back in time if a Democrat wins the White House in 2008). Wednesday, the inspector general's […]

An article in Tuesday's New York Sun by Claudia Rosett reveals that before taking the top job at […]
This is a beaut. From Inside Higher Ed comes news that the National Collegeiate Athletic Association's Committee on Women's Athletics wants the practice of women's teams using male players in practices stopped. Note that these aren't the coaches pushing for this, but bureaucrats. Women’s basketball coaches overwhelmingly support the use of male players, according to […]
