When the Democratic Party has already been consumed by antisemitism, a lot of people are genuinely worried about whether Republicans will go the same way.
Left-wing academics want to exploit the apparent suicide of disgraced Cambridge University professor Jason Arday to shield all other left-wing academics from any scrutiny over their shoddy academic records or fabricated life stories. The international scientific journal Nature joined in the chorus of blaming the media for Arday’s death, with an editorial titled “The death […]
President Donald Trump was elected with strong support from conservative evangelicals like me — and most of us praise God that he has so boldly defended Christianity. He’s turned the tide on unbiblical gender ideologies that led to men playing women’s sports and the mutilation of children’s bodies. He’s affirmed the dignity of unborn children […]
A new policy being pushed by Big Pharma giants could endanger Americans’ medical privacy, opening the door for hackers to access sensitive records. The push is part of an effort by drug companies to limit the financial impact of a federal drug discount program on their profits, but critics warn it could expose sensitive patient […]
The renewed controversy over the United Kingdom’s Falkland Islands territory is a tempest in a teapot. The Falkland Islands are well-defended, and President Donald Trump is highly unlikely to remove U.S. recognition of the U.K.’s sovereignty over them. In addition, while Argentina senses an opportunity to bolster its claims over the Islands, its means of […]
If the final polls are close to correct, Saxony-Anhalt will produce a startling result on Sunday. The Alternative for Germany, or AfD, could win 42% of the vote. That’s nearly twice the 22% projected for Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s Christian Democratic Union, yet the CDU’s Sven Schulze could remain minister-president. That outcome would be perfectly legal. […]
It is a striking graph. Among Democratic women over 65, fewer than half say the problems women face are due in large part to the behavior and actions of men, compared to just 16% of Republican women. But among women ages 18 to 29, the partisan divide is enormous: 66% of Democratic women blame men, […]
Diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives are fading under pressure from the Trump administration. Florida and Texas have dismantled DEI offices, while Georgia has barred mandatory DEI training and eliminated diversity statement requirements. Similar substantive and symbolic efforts, such as renaming, defunding, and slowly demolishing the DEI infrastructure, are underway in many other states. Although some […]
Automated license plate readers — high-speed cameras that capture the license plate information of each passing vehicle — are making headlines for all the wrong reasons. In Arkansas, recently released body camera footage shows a young couple with a small baby in the car being detained at gunpoint after an ALPR mistakenly flagged their vehicle […]
During a time when rising grocery costs, gas prices, and monthly rent are stretching family budgets more than ever before, it is paramount that we protect, preserve, and strengthen the one program that these citizens should be able to rely on: Social Security. For more than 70 million people, including retirees and disabled people, Social […]
Last September, the Washington Examiner published an abolitionist case against the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and the other self-regulatory organizations Congress has empowered. It argued that SROs are an “administrative state inside the administrative state”: opaque, unaccountable private bodies exercising powers that belong in government. Less than a year later, the Trump administration is reportedly […]
It must be nice to have complete control over what goes in your backyard. President Donald Trump certainly believes he has that power. Just look at the UFC venue he had built in the South Lawn, and the giant construction project where the East Wing used to be. Meanwhile, his administration is seeking to end […]
At the United Nations Security Council on Monday, the United States proposed what Sudan’s war urgently requires: extending the U.N. arms embargo from Darfur to the entire country and explicitly bringing drones and related technologies within its scope. The existing measures expire on Sept. 12. The Council must act now; the case is overwhelming. Start […]
The Trump administration’s recent recommendation to strip the American Bar Association of its near-monopoly power to accredit law schools is not a partisan overreach. It is a long-overdue reckoning with an organization that has abandoned its core duty: enforcing standards that protect equal opportunity, academic freedom, and nondiscrimination. An organization I founded, S.A.F.E. Campus, formerly […]
There is more than one way to erase a country. Sometimes you simply change the vocabulary. A former political territory becomes two administrative regions. A constitutional conflict becomes an “Anglophone crisis.” A question of consent becomes a problem of decentralization. An unresolved political dispute becomes primarily a humanitarian disaster. That, in my judgment, is part […]
