LOS ANGELES — President Donald Trump has stayed away from the World Cup after making himself the main character of the months leading up to it. Mexican President Claudia...
The Issue: How low voter turnout influenced Tuesday’s Democratic primaries in New York City. Barely 17% of Democratic voters citywide — heavily white and...
The United States needs to lead in 6G, the next generation of wireless technology that will evolve how we connect to and use networks, by closing the coverage and capacity gaps in today’s 5G networks. Just as 5G enabled today’s smartphones and mobile networks, 6G will power the technologies expected to define the coming decades, […]
At 250, it's worth celebrating the fact that the American Revolution got it right—while other countries' revolutions devolved into chaos and bloodshed.
Watch the reaction to the primaries in New York last week and you will hear a word that would have ended a campaign a generation ago: socialism. Candidates now say it with pride.

As America 250 celebrations begin across the country, people will gather to mark the nation’s semiquincentennial. In doing so, we celebrate July 4, 1776 — the moment the great American experiment was conceived. Notice what we do not celebrate.

John Adams was his stubborn successor, celebrated years later for being a charming malcontent. Thomas Jefferson was the wordsmith of the Revolution. James Madison was its […]
It is clear by now that the end of the Cold War and the period of relative peace, globalization, and prosperity that ensued after the collapse of the USSR and its satellites was no end of history. Instead, the United States sat briefly alone at the helm of the world order, where it made a […]
President Donald Trump would be justified in striking a $700 million deal to sell jet aircraft engines to the Turkish air force. But he would make a serious strategic error if he sold F-35 stealth fighter jets to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s government. Asked Wednesday about the possibility of doing so, Trump said Erdogan “really […]
I was in Paris last week for a party to celebrate the wedding anniversary of old friends. I know that’s a polarizing sentence to read.
