Javier Milei, the chainsaw-wielding economist president, followed through on his promise of “shock therapy,” taming inflation by cutting spending and deregulating the economy.
Do you think Garth Brooks did a double take? Did the Most Rev. Sean Rowe, presiding bishop, or the Very Rev. Randolph Marshall Hollerith, dean of Washington National Cathedral, have reservations? Or was John Lennon’s “Imagine” chosen for former President Jimmy Carter‘s state funeral without the bat of an eye? Different people of different faiths […]
Greenland follows and exceeds Denmark in abortion liberality. With President-elect Donald Trump’s sights set on the icy territory, U.S. leadership could take strides toward making Greenland more pro-life against its Danish influence. As it is, Greenland’s healthcare policy is near-identical to Denmark’s, its ruling country: Socialized medicine, wherein services are free and provided by the […]
Los Angeles has been run by Democrats for 24 years, and the collection of failures built up over that time are on display as wildfires rage across the city. My colleague, Tiana Lowe Doescher, already detailed all the ways that blame for this lies with Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and state Democrats, and that blame […]
Minneapolis became the battleground for a national activist-driven debate about defunding police departments. The Democrats running the city are so beholden to those activists that the ensuing years in Minneapolis have been all about police reforms and not about the surge in murders the city has been unable to handle. The Minneapolis City Council voted […]
European governments and too many in the media believe that free speech should be the preserve of calmer elites. This belief underlines efforts to constrict Elon Musk‘s controversial speech. True, while he’s one of the most dynamic entrepreneurs of our time, Musk gets some important things badly wrong. Musk presumes that the far-right activist Tommy […]
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released two important reports last year: the national births report for 2022 and the provisional births report for 2023. Both reflect a concerning trend: a decline in the general fertility rate among women aged 15-44 and a corresponding drop in the annual number of live births in the United States. […]
Judges aren’t politicians and shouldn’t behave like them. When they do, questions about their impartiality naturally arise. Consider two troubling recent cases where other judges unfairly echoed political attacks impugning the integrity of sitting Supreme Court justices. One case involved attacks on Justice Clarence Thomas, and the other involved attacks on Justice Samuel Alito. The most […]
Now that the 119th Congress has convened, there’s little question that the Big Tech lobbying machine will be back in full force to thwart renewed efforts to pass critical legislation designed to protect minors from harmful content and activity on social media. The widely supported, bipartisan Kids Online Safety Act nearly made it to the […]
The Houthis have been running roughshod over the United States and its allies in the Middle East. Washington should respond by unleashing its chief regional pillar, Israel, against the Yemen-based terrorist group. American deterrence in the Middle East has been collapsing for the past four years, and the Houthis have played a starring role in that sad […]
We continue to lack a credible, public explanation about why the USS Gettysburg fired surface-to-air missiles at two F/A-18 fighter jets from the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier in the Red Sea on Dec. 21. The pilot and weapons systems officer ejected safely from the first targeted jet, with minor injuries to one officer. […]
President-elect Donald Trump’s victory two months ago is a huge win for parents. Moreover, his nomination of Linda McMahon to lead the Education Department will benefit millions of students and families. Under her leadership, parents will be freed from educational handcuffs and empowered to get their children out of failing programs and districts. The current administration […]
JOE BIDEN’S ENDURING DECEPTIONS. As far as the press are concerned, Joe Biden has been the least accessible president in memory. There’s a reason for that. It’s been clear for a long time that the 82-year-old Biden is not mentally and physically up to the job. After it became politically safe for Democratic-supporting media outlets to […]
