JD Vance is putting excessive burdens on his Secret Service detail

Vice President JD Vance has a young family. It’s understandable that he wants to balance the duties of his office alongside preserving as much as a normal family life as possible. Still, Vance should make slightly more of an effort to decrease the demands he is placing on the U.S. Secret Service. This concern bears […]

The Teamsters’ Union Pacific-Norfolk Southern opposition sacrifices the wrong members

America’s freight rail industry, deregulated by the 1980 Staggers Rail Act, has spent four decades investing private capital to move goods more efficiently across a continent-sized economy.

Predictably, some […]

The ‘AI kills jobs’ myth is collapsing — great news for job seekers

Too often, public debate rewards dramatic predictions.

Every summer, elderly Europeans die in apartments that feel like ovens. A peer-reviewed study in Nature Medicine estimated that more than 60,000 Europeans died from heat-related causes in the summer of 2022 alone. And this summer may be worse.  About 90% of American homes have air conditioning. In Europe, the figure is roughly 20%. That […]

How Trump’s Iran war just made US-China peace more likely
