Nigel Farage and other top UK politicians need more security

Following the murder of a retired politician last week, the United Kingdom is debating the security measures provided to its politicians.

Meet ‘Nazi Liberalism’: When the Left becomes what it claims to hate

A progressive Democratic U.S. Senate candidate in Maine adorned with a Nazi tattoo.

America’s prodigal ally has returned: Why Colombia’s election matters for US

Colombia is over 1,500 miles away from the United States, yet the outcome of its presidential election will affect America’s security, its border, and its influence in the Western Hemisphere far more than many realize.

China wants to replace the dollar. CLARITY can stop that

Last year’s GENIUS Act meant that stablecoins could be at home in any regulated institution.

Meta just proved Sammy’s Law could have saved my son

Meta just announced it will start alerting parents when their teenagers ask Instagram’s artificial intelligence chatbot about suicide or self-harm. It’s a good and overdue step.

They buried Khamenei. They couldn’t bury the body count

With the burial of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, contemporary political discourse will inevitably focus on his geopolitical maneuvering, Iran’s nuclear trajectory, and prolonged confrontation with Western powers. However, an analysis restricted to statecraft overlooks the defining characteristic of his tenure: the systematic institutionalization of state-sanctioned violence. Khamenei’s legacy is fundamentally defined by the creation of an […]

How Anthropic’s ‘destroy the world’ doomerism backfired on America

It’s now readily demonstrable that Anthropic’s political advocacy and advertising have caused substantial harm to America’s position in the global AI race.

Kagan’s climate conflict is obvious — recusal shouldn’t be optional

Justice Elena Kagan should recuse herself from Suncor Energy v. Boulder County. Not because a lower court told her to. Not because an ethics board ruled against her.
