More than 4 in 10 names flagged as possible noncitizen voters in California by the Trump administration cannot even be found on the state's voter rolls, according to a legal filing Saturday by an immigrant rights group. It's the first outside analysis of a list that the Department of Justice has used to threaten prosecution of election officials.
In his recent breakdown of the Republican Party’s internal mechanics, the Washington Examiner’s chief political correspondent Byron York highlighted a stark operational reality: President Donald Trump holds a 95% approval rating among self-described MAGA Republicans. While conventional political coverage filters this data through a lens of partisan triumph or panic, an objective institutional analysis reveals […]
The state's decline has accelerated on Hochul’s watch; she’s hopeless when it comes to reining in the ideologues and the special interests slowly eating...

From a New York Times critic arguing against blind auditions for orchestras to Chicago’s former mayor offering interviews exclusively to nonwhite reporters, the insanities of what Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) recently dubbed “Woke 1.0” are legion. In White Guilt, filmmaker Eli Steele traces these peculiar manifestations of modern antiracism to an affliction his father diagnosed […]
From the passenger seat, it is easy to understand the appeal. A horse-drawn carriage moving through Central Park offers a little piece of an older New York: the clip-clop of hooves, trees overhead, skyscrapers beyond them and, for a few minutes, the illusion that the city has slowed down. It is romantic. Now imagine the […]
Bicycles account for about 1% of all commuting, but romantics FEEL they'll become New Yorkers’ most popular option if we're relentless enough in expanding...
Wars rarely begin when nations are fully prepared to fight them. They begin when political leaders would prefer more time, military planners want more forces, and logisticians need more ships, aircraft, ammunition, and supplies. That is precisely why the United States and its allies should revisit an old but highly practical concept: Ships Taken Up […]
In the four months leading up to the deaths of her three children, Lindsay Clancy was prescribed 13 different psychiatric medications through more than 30 prescriptions. Of those 13 medications, only four fell within Massachusetts’s prescription monitoring program, while the remaining nine, including antidepressants, an antipsychotic, and a mood stabilizer, were outside its routine reporting […]

It is admittedly somewhat of an odd question, but the results from a recently published Gallup poll asking it are striking. “Honesty” was the top vote-getter at 34%, followed by “responsibility” at 32%, and “integrity” at 31%. These are all fine choices, and the country […]
On Sunday, 60 Minutes profiled Moussa Diawara, a deported Texas father of two. The segment sympathetically claimed he feared returning to Mali partly because he had converted to Christianity. It told viewers the Department of Homeland Security questioned his credibility, yet it never mentioned that his 2012 immigration application claimed he was gay and feared […]
The House Freedom Caucus was founded in the hangover of the Tea Party movement, ostensibly to revolt against the fiscal moderation of then-House Speaker John Boehner, an Ohio Republican. So, I laughed out loud at the response a Freedom Caucus member gave me after asking him, eight days before the Nov. 3 midterm elections, what […]
