Supreme Court Upholds Gender Justice in Women’s Sports
Phil Mushnick writes in the New York Post that another week of institutional absurdity has left Americans questioning whether common sense has been permanently retired from public life.
The veteran columnist notes the jarring contrast of a holiday weekend that features both celebrations of American independence and the ongoing circus of cultural and political dysfunction that now defines much of public life.
Mushnick observes that the nation’s 250th anniversary celebration of freedom has been reframed by Democrats as little more than a glorification of Donald Trump rather than the founding principles established by George Washington.
The writer expresses a desperate need to escape to what he mockingly terms a “Sanctuary City”—not the conventional definition, but rather one that offers refuge to citizens who can no longer tolerate the erosion of rational thought and basic intelligence in American society.
He presents his credentials for such relocation with dark humor, noting that he pays his taxes, refrains from littering, recycles, and hasn’t committed homicide in nearly a week.
The past week, Mushnick argues, represented yet another low point in the ongoing collapse of institutional sanity, the sort of stretch that forces reasonable people to question whether sound judgment has been abandoned entirely or simply postponed indefinitely.
His commentary reflects a broader frustration among conservatives who watch traditional American values and common-sense governance give way to ideological excess and performative politics.
