[ad_1] An excerpt from the long Law Office of John Randolph, PLLC v. EWU Media LLC, decided Monday by the Washington Court of Appeals (Judge Linda Coburn, joined by Judges Leonard Feldman and Ian Birk): Attorney John Randolph, who is bipolar, had a mental health episode on August 3, 2021. During the incident Randolph approached a child at a public park and tried to persuade the child to go boating or parasailing with him. When police responded, Randolph made several nonsensical statements, including an inaccurate belief that he was the child’s father. According to Randolph, this conduct is consistent with…
[ad_1] “It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punishedunless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.”— Voltaire (1694-1778) Last week, when the Pentagon resumed its attacks on small boats in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific Ocean, the media barely noticed. The U.S. military has now destroyed 56 vessels and killed 190 persons. The killings began in September 2025 and have continued to this month. The attacks caused a stir a few months ago when one of the strikes disabled the boat at which the attack was aimed but failed to kill all the passengers.…

[ad_1] Your phone buzzing with political ads the moment you step into a church parking lot sounds like satire, but the documents and contracts point to something very real. We sit down with Nick Cleveland-Stout of the Quincy Institute (and a writer at Drop Site News) to track a sweeping Israeli influence campaign in the United States that goes far beyond the usual Capitol Hill lobbying. The focus is American Protestants, especially evangelicals, and the mission is simple: stop the bleeding in public opinion as younger conservatives grow skeptical of unconditional US support for Israel. We dig into the details…
[ad_1] The Harlan Institute has completed the Fourteenth Annual Virtual Supreme Court Competition. This year, in honor of America’s 250th Anniversary, the competition presented the case of Patriots v. Loyalists. This competition offered teams of two high school students the opportunity to research American history, write persuasive appellate briefs, argue against other students through video chats, and try to persuade a panel of esteemed attorneys during oral argument that the Declaration should be signed. On April 7, we held the Final Four round at the Georgetown Supreme Court Institute. Presiding were Judge Kyle Duncan of the U.S. Court of Appeals…
[ad_1] Regular readers of Brownstone Journal have been graced with insight provided by many authors of diverse backgrounds and experiences. As a physician, I have found those authored by Dr. Joseph Varon to be exceptionally helpful in their insight into the state of medicine today. In particular, his essay, “When Physicians are Replaced With a Protocol,” struck a chord with me. Perhaps it was my conscience, as I probably bear some responsibility for furthering this viewpoint, at least on a local level. You see, I once was a True Believer. It was plausible. It seemed so believable, so “scientific,” so simple. But it…
[ad_1] A bipartisan bill introduced in Congress yesterday pushes states to “promote childhood independence” rather than investigate or punish the parents who permit it. The bill lists seven examples of decent parents investigated for letting their kids play outside, bike, walk to the store, etc. Five of these stories were first reported in Reason. Reps. Blake Moore (R–Utah), Janet McClellan (D–Va.), and Virginia Foxx (R–N.C.) are cosponsoring the “Promoting Childhood Independence and Resilience Act.” “I want my kids to go exploring without it being just every minute planned for them,” says Moore, a father of four. No parent, he adds,…
