ANAHEIM — The Ducks matched the defending champions stride-for-stride through two periods on Tuesday night, but they were tucked away summarily in the third as the Florida Panthers prevailed, 5-2, at Honda Center after winning by an identical three-goal margin in Saturday’s shutout of the Ducks in Florida.Opening-salvo goals by Frank Vatrano and Mason McTavish set up a vigorous effort in the middle frame for the hosts, but their fancy-stat dominance didn’t translate to the scoreboard. Two goals in the opening five minutes of a lackluster third period condemned the Ducks to a defeat in which Lukáš Dostál turned in…

First of all, is it really true that delusional lefties, journalists, students and academics really think that this war, which started on October 7, 2023, was Israel’s fault? Sadly, this cannot be denied. That intellectual and moral rot started in on the very next day, on October 8, 2023. Then, almost three dozen student groups affiliated with Harvard University blamed the Jewish state for the carnage of the previous day. They did so even before the IDF had taken any action whatsoever to counter these terrorists, or made any attempt to free the 250 hostages taken by Hamas. Here is a direct…

Only one out of every three Californians believe that the American Dream – you can get ahead if you work hard – remains true. It’s not for lack of effort. Californians are working at a near-historic rate and nearly every metric shows that the state’s economy is humming.The issue, then – as touched on by both Assembly Speaker Rob Rivas and Senate Pro Tem Mike McGuire in their welcome back speeches last month – is that California has become too expensive. We have some of the highest gas, electricity and insurance costs in the country. These cost squeezes have real impacts.…
