People wondering how long women's basketball can sustain this level of hype don't have to wonder much longer. Not only did Caitlin Clark's pro jersey sell out in a matter of 24 hours, but the WNBA draft where she was taken first overall quadrupled its viewers over 2023. In Washington, D.C., the Mystics, who are used to playing in small venues, are so overwhelmed with demand they've been forced to move the June game against Clark to the 18,000-seat Capital One Arena. The enthusiasm makes it all the more infuriating that - a mile down the road - the president is trying to dismantle the sport they've built.
While June is over a month away, West Potomac High School is offering a variety of Pride events over the next few weeks - including a discussion with Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) Pride, a drag queen brunch, and a spring musical production of Kinky Boots. Beyond the Page Theatre Company sent a mass email to "Theatre Arts Patrons" on April 17, advertising the three upcoming events.
Summit Ministries and RMG Research released data on Monday showcasing "the startling difference between the sentiments of all voters and Gen Z voters specifically, those born between 1997 and 2012," Breitbart reported. These particular results, which involved 1,003 registered voters, highlighted Gen Z's terrorist sympathies with the label, "Landmark poll: Gen Z sides with Hamas."
Columbia University administrators appear to have given up any hope of reasserting control of their property after days of shocking anti-Semitic protests. One rabbi's counsel to Jewish students to return home was "the reason why classes went virtual at Columbia today," Rabbi Yaakov Menken, managing director of the Coalition for Jewish Values, said Monday on "Washington Watch." By Tuesday, Columbia University announced it was switching to hybrid classes for the remainder of the semester.
In February 2023, producers at The Daily Caller said, "enough is enough" when they released their documentary, "Damaged." In just under an hour, the documentary exposes the truth about what LGBT activists call "gender-affirming care." The Daily Caller wrote, "Transition surgeries on children are appalling, but the media is hellbent on convincing us that these procedures are good for our kids." Over time, though, the reality becomes clearer and clearer: these procedures are not good, but permanently harmful.
On my office wall hangs a framed print, created by Australian Jewish artist and friend Camille Fox. Her original painting is titled "Last Passover in Baghdad." It depicts a gathering of 15 Jews of all ages, gathered around an elegant dining table, with a moonlit Middle East cityscape in the background. Their faces are mostly troubled and uncertain. Between 1950 and 1952, nearly all of Iraq's endangered Jewish population had to flee their ancient homeland and resettle in Israel; the same happened in several other Middle Eastern countries.
