Sadly, far less attention has been paid to the human capital that surrounds those top priorities — the leaders, the […]
Just weeks after President Donald Trump signed a ceasefire memorandum that lifted financial sanctions on Iran’s foreign currency reserves, freed up Iranian oil exports, and committed the United States and its partners to a reconstruction framework worth hundreds of billions of dollars, Iran has violated the deal. U.S. Central Command struck more than 80 Iranian […]

Judges want dates, corroboration, and contemporaneous accounts. What they do not want is a story that changes shape depending on who benefits from believing it. That is the standard […]
When a famous right-wing tech titan, several liberal senators, and even the president of the United States simultaneously call for massive new work-free government handouts, it’s worth taking note. It remains to be seen whether the artificial intelligence-induced employment disruptions behind those calls will occur, much less the proposed universal government checks, akin to welfare […]
China’s navy this week test-fired a long-range ballistic missile from a nuclear-powered submarine into the South Pacific, alarming U.S. allies across the region. The launch, China’s second major open-ocean ballistic missile test in less than two years, was described by U.S. officials as a “great concern to the region and the world.” But our nation’s […]
