The Republican Party needs its Sir Geoffrey Howe moment. Not another sanctimonious lecture from the Never Trump crowd. Republicans need something far more serious — and potentially far more consequential: a credible Trumpist willing to stand up and tell President Donald Trump that his administration is drifting toward political catastrophe. Howe, the influential Conservative Party […]
Cuba’s acquisition of more than 300 attack drones from Iran and Russia since 2023 underscores the regime’s deepening alignment with Washington’s adversaries. Cuban planners have reportedly discussed strikes against Guantanamo Bay, U.S. naval vessels, and even Key West, Florida. While these systems provide Havana with a limited harassment and asymmetric strike capability, they do nothing […]
Shortly after being deposed by Republican primary voters last Tuesday, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) took a parting shot at his Jewish bugbear: “I would have come out sooner, but I had to call my opponent and concede, and it took a while to find Ed Gallrein in Tel Aviv.” This wasn’t the first anti-Israel conspiracy […]
As a university president, I talk to countless students every day. Many of them are brilliant and possess skills you cannot teach in a lecture hall. These students often choose to pursue careers in less lucrative areas because they feel a calling to help others. When the new federal loan caps take effect this July, […]
Tedious and trite do not even begin to describe the final season of The Boys. Blind to his own biases, showrunner Eric Kripke has taken every element that made the penultimate season such a slog and doubled down, turning what began as a darkly comic superhero spoof into something resembling Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show laced with lewd […]
Walk into any regional airport in America, and you’ll likely see a Cirrus aircraft on the tarmac. Sleek, American-made, often bearing the American flag. What you won’t see is the fine print: Cirrus Aircraft, the largest manufacturer of piston-powered general aviation planes in the United States, has been wholly owned since 2011 by a subsidiary […]
For decades, Democrats and progressives have sought to claim human rights as their own. They depicted conservatives as Cold War-obsessed, uninterested in either freedom or democracy. For many liberals, the Cuban Revolution was about human rights. So too were the Sandinistas in Nicaragua. Every Latin American dictator was a Republican friend; every revolutionary was an […]
China’s biotech industry is only barely trailing — and in some areas, is already surpassing — America’s. China now initiates roughly the same number of clinical trials for novel drugs as the United States. Chinese biotechs are far outpacing their American competitors in the stock market. Hong Kong’s biotech index climbed about 80% last year, […]
Companies will not win by turning AI into a fear test. They will win by creating workplaces where human judgment gets more valuable as machine output gets cheaper.
Even as the U.S. and Iran inch toward a deal to end the nearly three-months long conflict, tensions are running high. On Monday, the U.S. launched strikes in southern Iran that it described as "defensive," and Iran claimed to have brought down an American drone. President Trump demanded the Islamic Republic immediate turn over its...
Peace deal negotiations between the Trump administration and Iran are on shaky ground Tuesday after the Islamic Republic‘s supreme leader warned U.S. bases in the Middle East are no longer safe. Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei delivered this warning in a message to mark the beginning of Hajj — an annual Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca — a...
Wonks and activists of the conservative-libertarian fusionist flavor are cautiously optimistic that their politics will come back in style in a post-Trump political landscape — and that they can beat back the big-government “conservatives” that have risen in the Trump era. “Ideas and political philosophies are actually a lot more like fashion than we might...
Medicaid fraud has been rampant for decades, costing taxpayers billions of dollars, but a proposed Republican reform of Medicaid block grants could help limit the fraud and ensure that taxpayer dollars are used more efficiently.
