Demanding a particular litigation action is inappropriate and counterproductive.

Nuclear option: The only logical answer to AI energy crisis

On quiet, residential streets in Sterling, Virginia, residents often wake to the roar of diesel backup generators and smog that leaves their throats raw by morning — the price of AI data centers built without proper zoning oversight. This is the leading edge of a much bigger problem. Virginia alone hosts roughly a quarter of […]

AARP doesn’t represent seniors. It overcharges them

With families still struggling after years of high inflation, “affordability” remains top of mind for policymakers in Washington. But one organization has little credibility on this front: AARP. Formerly known as the American Association of Retired Persons, a more accurate moniker might be Against Affordability for Retired Persons because AARP makes most of its money […]

Which is the party of democracy?

WHICH IS THE PARTY OF DEMOCRACY? Under wildly different circumstances, Democrats in Maine and Republicans in South Carolina face the problem of finding a new nominee to run for the Senate this November. They are handling the situation in remarkably different ways.  Start with Maine. Last week, nominee Graham Platner finally succumbed to the long list of […]

Biden’s parting gift to Democrats: A rule DOJ never dared submit to Congress

When Todd Blanche, President Donald Trump’s nominee for attorney general, appears before the Senate Judiciary Committee this week, senators will undoubtedly ask how he plans to continue righting the wrongs of a Justice Department that former President Joe Biden weaponized against the American people. They should add another issue to that list: dismantling the Biden […]

Three hundred fifty economists just told the poor to stop waiting for growth. They’re wrong

A recent headline in the Guardian calls for an economic reckoning: “We economists have done the maths: ‘growth’ is a doomed strategy.” More than 350 signatories, including economists Joseph Stiglitz, Thomas Piketty, Kate Raworth, and anthropologist Jason Hickel, have endorsed an over 100-page “Roadmap for Eradicating Poverty Beyond Growth” that provides a path to end […]

America keeps bombing Iran. It still can’t define what winning looks like

In my recent Washington Examiner op-ed, I argued that the greatest danger in confronting Iran is not necessarily losing a war, but stopping before achieving a durable strategic outcome. If an adversary survives, regroups, and rebuilds, what appears to be victory today can become tomorrow’s conflict. That observation raises a more fundamental question, one Washington […]

America’s history museum forgot to mention the founding

The United States doesn’t need a museum that apologizes for existing. That’s the real argument buried inside the White House’s new 162-page report on the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History, and it’s one worth making loudly. Released July 4 under the title “Saving America’s Story,” the report accuses the museum of “ideological capture” and […]

The toxin nobody’s talking about in Nigeria’s Christian massacres

Among the several ongoing conflicts in Nigeria, Western attention has turned especially to fatal clashes between Muslim-majority Fulani herdsmen and Christian-majority farmers. The issue has captivated the White House: President Donald Trump threatened in November that if “the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians,” the United States would “go into that now […]

Dark money, darker motives: The foreign-funding loophole nobody’s closing

Let’s separate the facts from the fiction on foreign money in U.S. politics. According to the Federal Election Commission, federal law prohibits foreign nationals from directly or indirectly making any contributions or donations in association with, or covering any expenditures or disbursements related to, any U.S. federal, state, or local election. This prohibition includes any […]

The real AI doomsday scenario? Listening to Dario Amodei

Doomsaying is a terrible basis for public policy. Still, some of America’s top AI leaders are deploying that exact sort of rhetoric. Anthropic’s Dario Amodei has repeatedly warned about the dangers of open-source AI, anointing himself as our generation’s cautionary priest on AI, despite leading a leading frontier lab seeking an initial public offering valuation […]

I earned a Purple Heart defending this country. Now I can’t bring my family home

For 23 years, I served in the United States Army. During that time, I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I carried that oath through multiple assignments, combat service, and the sacrifices that ultimately earned me the Purple Heart. Although I am […]
