The Obama Presidential Center's grand opening ceremony in Chicago on Thursday will feature a star-studded lineup including Bruce Springsteen, U2's Bono and the Edge, and Stevie Wonder.
In the run-up to the second Iraq War, then-Secretary of State Colin Powell allegedly told President George W. Bush: “If you break it, you own it.” Powell and his deputy Richard Armitage privately called this the “Pottery Barn rule.” In the ensuing years, politicians and commentators alike have used the phrase to describe the idea […]
There has never been a major film about America’s first president. That’s a remarkable fact considering that he is an ever-present figure in America — his face graces our dollar bills, countless memorials, and a giant mountain in South Dakota. But for whatever reason, he’s never been the subject of a major biopic — not […]
The accelerating data center buildout across the nation has understandably produced anxiety over rising utility costs. The noise it has created is also myopic.

At protests across American cities, demonstrators have carried Soviet flags, the hammer and sickle on red cloth, as symbols of resistance. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and […]
The 13th Amendment abolished slavery. Most Americans know that. Fewer know the rest of that sentence: “except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted.” That clause has governed American prison labor for 160 years, and neither party will debate it honestly.
