How Oppenheimer Obliterated Auden’s Association with National Review

The acclaimed poet wrote just once for NR. Why is that the case?

Judge strikes down Hegseth’s ban on Anthropic AI, calls it unconstitutional ‘retaliation’

A federal judge barred the Defense Department from enforcing its ban on using technology from Anthropic, a leading AI firm, calling the prohibition more a fit of rage than a well-founded policy.

I fled Castro’s nightmare — this new wave of immigrants is importing it

Democratic Socialists of America are all the rage. Its media-savvy candidates are competing for and winning primary and general elections against its parent, the Democratic Party, at the local, state, and federal levels. One of the things that stands out is how many of their candidates and leaders are immigrants or from first-generation immigrant families. […]

Harvested alive: Trump must step in before doctors farm humans for spare parts

The recent announcement by the Department of Health and Human Services that it will move to decertify one of the nation’s organ procurement organizations is one important element of a process to restore trust in America’s system of organ donation. But HHS should take further actions to build upon the Trump administration’s prior reforms and […]

Why losing an election breaks the Left (and why the Right survives it)

As the fall election season takes shape, voters say the country is on the wrong track by 24 points. Yet when asked whether they feel optimistic or pessimistic about America’s future, that deficit shrinks to just four points. That 20-point gap is telling. Americans are disgusted with the division of our politics, but they have […]

The unfriendly skies

You’re not imagining it: Air travel really is becoming more unpleasant. Sure, COVID-19, germophobia, and mask mandates were a short-term catalyst of bad airline behavior, but there’s a deeper problem causing the skies to become less friendly: We no longer think it’s good or important to treat other people well. Doing unto others as you […]

Two Trump economies: Why taking a ‘victory lap’ backfires in the grocery aisle

President Donald Trump has spent much of the summer highlighting the success of the American economy. Rising markets. Low unemployment. Billions of dollars in new investment. New factories and expanding domestic production. By many conventional measures, he has a case to make. Yet many Americans hear those achievements and ask a different question: If the […]

I found the Democrat playbook. Republicans refuse to touch it

I have kept quiet about this for far too long. I have worked in grassroots politics for decades — on local races, statewide races, presidential campaigns, and everything in between. I’ve watched hundreds of millions of dollars pour into elections, consultants come and go and campaigns rise and fall, while armies of conservative volunteers work […]

Trump wants to kill the roadless rule: Trees aren’t worth more than lives

The U.S. Forest Service filed a proposed rule today to erase a 25-year-old federal restriction covering nearly 45 million acres of national forest. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says overgrown stands, insect outbreaks, and disease have turned healthy landscapes into tinderboxes. I’ve lived in California since 1990, long enough to watch the same story repeat itself […]

When every Hollywood cause becomes an anti-Israel cause

Free speech means the right to protest, criticize, and organize, including about Israel, including from Hollywood. It does not mean the right to be taken seriously regardless of whether the claims hold up, and it does not exempt celebrity activism from the same criticism that anyone else’s advocacy would face. That distinction keeps disappearing. Increasingly, […]

Disastrous reality

We’ve all become used to computer-generated scenes of disaster — of meteors thudding into the Earth with the force of a thousand nuclear explosions, seas engulfing cities, or people flash frozen mid-stride. There was something cinematic and unreal about the video from the Himalayas this week, showing what can be described as a flood, only […]

Best college football names of 2026

To be perfectly honest, I don’t know if I am emotionally ready for the 2026 college football season. Despite not attending the school or even being Catholic, I’ve been a Notre Dame Fighting Irish fan my entire life, and I’m still not over the first two games of last season. The Irish started the 2025 […]

Trump picked a trade fight with Canada. US defense firms may pay the price.

None of what Washington wanted on defense was ever going to be delivered by threat.

Live updates: Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez to join ‘Defend the Vote’ march in DC; Warsh set to make remarks

Thousands of people are expected Friday on the National Mall to rally for voting rights and racial justice ahead of the midterm elections, following a wave of changes to voting laws and redistricting that civil rights groups have condemned as detrimental to Black Americans. The 2026 “Defend the Vote” March on Washington marks the anniversary...
