Donald Trump Jr.’s wedding partially funded by Russian oligarch, ProPublica reports

Another judge blocks Trump’s plans to use post office to police mailed ballots

President Trump's attempt to rope the U.S. Postal Service into policing which ballots can and can't be mailed suffered another setback after a second federal judge issued a ruling halting the idea.

The Hammurabi solution to AI

Former President Barack Obama is urging Democrats to make regulating artificial intelligence one of their “central agendas” in this year’s elections, but when it comes to what exactly he wants Democrats to do policy-wise, he appears to have no answers. Not that Republicans seem to have much of an AI agenda either. This Sunday, House […]

The anti-AI rebellion just found its first real target — and it has a street address

One of the more curious developments of the artificial intelligence revolution is that its most visible political enemy has turned out to be a windowless warehouse filled with computers. Data centers, once infrastructure that interested few outside the tech industry and planning commissions, are becoming objects of intense opposition worldwide. But they are an avatar […]

The strategic crypto reserve is built on four economic lies

In my recent analysis of the Trump administration’s proposed $20 billion strategic Bitcoin reserve, I argued that anchoring a national treasury to seized digital assets introduces severe systemic risks to the U.S. dollar. The article ignited an immediate, highly charged debate. Much of the sharpest pushback came directly from my own friends, colleagues, and professional […]

If a nuclear bomb hits your city tomorrow, your evacuation plan will kill you

Our nation’s major metropolitan areas have detailed community response plans for hurricanes, forest fires, and other natural disasters. But in my decades in the field, I have noticed a worrisome gap: pre-disaster community planning for a nuclear event such as a terrorist plot. In 2010, President Barack Obama told the 47-country Nuclear Security Summit, “Two […]

Trump should make Washington’s electricity affordable again

Washington’s renewable energy mandates are making its electricity so expensive that the Council of the District of Columbia explicitly exempted its government buildings from being required to pay the costs of the regulations. Why should municipal buildings be exempt from a mandate that it imposes on residents, businesses, and federal taxpayers? We don’t think they […]

The census was diluting your vote. Trump is finally fixing it

For six years, President Donald Trump has been trying to fix a problem almost nobody in Washington wanted to talk about: The United States hands out congressional seats partly on the basis of people who have no legal right to be there. This week, his administration attempted a major overhaul of the United States census […]

Your representative doesn’t want to solve crises. They want to campaign on them

Congress has returned from its August recess, but not for long. The House will have just four voting days before members leave Washington to campaign for the November midterm elections. The Senate will remain somewhat longer, but little legislation of broad national consequence is expected to clear Congress before Election Day. None of this is […]

If schools won’t teach the truth about 9/11, TikTok will teach the lies

A quarter-century has passed since the morning the world fractured. For the educators standing at the whiteboard today, a daunting demographic threshold has been crossed. Every single student sitting in a K-12 classroom has no lived memory of Sept. 11, 2001. To them, the thick black smoke pouring from the twin towers is not cultural […]

Crypto’s next fight isn’t just about regulation. It’s about who owns the names of innovation

Washington has spent years debating how the United States should regulate cryptocurrency. But as digital assets move deeper into the American financial mainstream, another question is emerging in federal court: Who gets to own the language of crypto innovation? A new lawsuit brought by Unicoin against Uniswap Labs puts that question squarely before the courts. […]
