MS NOW, CNN journalists denied access to the White House grounds

MS NOW said its journalists were denied access to the White House grounds Saturday morning, a day after President Trump said he would ban the network and other outlets from the complex.

This swing state Republican keeps distancing himself from Trump. It may not save him in the midterms

Mary Ryan may be a registered Republican but she has never voted for President Trump, turned off by his crass style of politics and chaotic approach to governing.

China is winning the science race while Washington freezes American innovation

Nearly 20 million students have returned to America’s college campuses. Those of us who have spent our lives inside universities never tire of it. Back to school is one of the most exciting times of the year. This year, though, campuses are quieter. Universities have admitted 15% fewer doctoral students this fall, the second consecutive […]

Smart tariffs fight Beijing, stupid tariffs tax Santa: How Trump can save Christmas

President Donald Trump can deliver a timely economic win before the holiday shopping season by using the new U.S.-China Board of Trade to reduce tariffs on everyday consumer goods. Tariffs on imports from China have been defended as leverage against unfair trade practices and a tool to protect strategic industries. But not every product imported […]

Anthropic’s CEO is right to warn us — but he’s fearing the wrong AI apocalypse

When the chief executive of one of the world’s most powerful artificial intelligence companies says that his industry must slow down, we should listen. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei recently warned that AI capabilities are advancing faster than our ability to understand and control them⁠. His concern — and much of the public debate — centers […]

Courts just allowed AI child sex abuse material because it’s ‘virtual.’ Who do you think it’s trained on?

The recent 7th Circuit opinion permitting in-home possession of AI-generated child sexual abuse material raises many questions regarding the relationship between protected speech and generative AI. While most people would say CSAM of any child — real or virtual — should be illegal, the decision relies on precedent from the 2002 Ashcroft v. Free Speech […]

The experts laughed at Trump’s Greenland plan. Beijing isn’t laughing now

In traditional diplomacy, progress is usually slow. The Trump administration does not follow that old script. When President Donald Trump renewed his demand to acquire Greenland earlier this year, foreign policy experts panicked. Critics dismissed the idea immediately, calling it entirely unrealistic. Yet, the United States, Denmark, and Greenland are now preparing to sign a […]

Why Israel is losing its friends

Is West Bank settler violence the hill that Israel’s friends want to die on? I ask as a lifelong admirer of the Jewish state. I marvel at the achievement of maintaining an open society in a lawless region. I remember the warm glow I felt, two decades ago, when the IDF general who had laid […]

Sean O’Brien is just Randi Weingarten in a hard hat

Conservatives in Congress have started to separate government-worker unions, such as Randi Weingarten’s American Federation of Teachers, from “private-sector” unions, such as Sean O’Brien’s Teamsters. They know Weingarten and her friends are irredeemably liberal in their social policy and destructively socialist in their economic policy, so they’re treated as adversaries. But since almost 60% of […]

The American dream isn’t dead. We just confused opportunity with a guarantee

As the United States marks its 250th anniversary, Americans are holding two seemingly contradictory ideas at once. Gallup reported in June that 78% of Americans still believe the American dream is worth striving for, and 69% believe they personally will achieve it. Yet an AP-NORC poll found that only 34% say the traditional proposition that […]

Trump broke Putin’s empire. Congress is handing it right back

Russia’s war in Ukraine accomplished something no American strategy could have engineered on its own: It hollowed out Moscow’s grip on its former empire. The White House noticed and moved. Congress still has not. The Trump administration has moved at a remarkable pace. In August 2025, Washington displaced Moscow as broker of the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, […]

I defended Sydney Sweeney’s last ad. I won’t defend this one

When American Eagle released its “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans” campaign last year, I found the outrage ridiculous.  I like seeing a beautiful woman unapologetically presented as beautiful. I like even more that Sweeney refused to participate in the familiar ritual in which somebody commits an imaginary cultural offense and is then expected to crawl […]

Congressman Tom Barrett: ‘Being a socialist should disqualify him for people’s consideration in my district’

Michigan's Tom Barrett is locked in a tight race in the Lansing-based seventh district against William Lawrence, founder of the Sunrise Movement.
