1985—Extending an error it made two years earlier, the Sixth Circuit (in Policy v. Powell Pressed Steel Co.) distorts ordinary contract principles as it construes a…
Foggy Bottom’s obsession with a dysfunctional Bosnian condominium ignores reality and creates a dangerous strategic vacuum. History proves that the Western Balkans cannot survive multi-ethnic experiments, which inevitably collapse under internal contradictions. Instead of worshiping dead institutional stability, Washington must forge a realistic diplomatic road map guiding Republika Srpska toward independence. True regional stability requires […]
Vice President Kamala Harris has run a cowardly campaign focused on deceiving and misleading voters. She should not be rewarded for it with the presidency. Harris’s campaign has been cowardly from the moment it was launched late in the election cycle. Harris’s campaign began earnestly on July 21, when President Joe Biden announced he was […]
Again, the Women’s March in Washington, D.C., has tried and failed to equate abortion with suffrage. The annual march, held first in 2017 as a counter to former President Donald Trump’s inauguration, showed heightened tension a few days ahead of an even more tense Election Day. Abortion has been framed as a human right for […]
It’s hard to be an economist and, at the same time, be a Democrat. The reason? Most left-leaning Democrats reject the main teachings of economics. Yet more than 80% of academic economists are Democrats. For every Republican economist on college faculties, there are 4.5 Democrats. Consider just a few of the ways in which what economists […]
Win or lose on Tuesday, Sen. J.D. Vance’s (R-OH) willingness to engage in contentious in-depth policy discussions, and the skill with which he has explained the conservative position, has been a public service. There was no finer example of Vance’s effective debating than his exchange with New York Times podcaster Lulu Garcia-Navarro on the economic […]
When it comes to climate matters, Vice President Kamala Harris has been playing a centrist on the campaign trail. However, while her campaign is now feigning support for fossil fuels, its recent hiring of Camila Thorndike as climate engagement director revealed Harris’s plans for climate policy are anything but reasonable. Thorndike, a former staffer for […]
Can you believe it? Tuesday is the most important Election Day in decades. The polls say it is a dead heat, but other signs point to a win for former President Donald Trump. As hopeful as I feel about the chances that Trump will win this election, and even take the House and Senate along […]
Leading up to Tuesday’s election, the presidential campaigns have been visibly courting the bro vote, with former President Donald Trump appearing on prankster podcasts and Vice President Kamala Harris, well, sending former President Barack Obama out to call black men sexist. And while this flirtation might be the hot new thing, the long-standing courtship lies with women. (You can buy all […]
Congress enacted Title IX in 1972 to prohibit sex-based discrimination in education. This legislation is crucial for ensuring that female students have equal access to opportunities on campus, athletic and otherwise. As a former NCAA Division I swimmer, I recognize that the privilege I worked incredibly hard for was only made possible through Title IX. […]
People head to the polls on Tuesday to select the next occupant of the White House. Among the first big decisions the winner will have to make is whether to extend generous subsidies for health insurance purchased through the exchanges. Those subsidies are set to expire at the end of next year. Vice President Kamala Harris […]
Either Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump will be elected as president on Tuesday. All 435 members of the House of Representatives are up for election, and 34 Senate seats will be decided. As CNBC reports, between September 15 and October 31, S&P 500 companies discussing their earnings on investor conference calls […]
With Election Day approaching, voters across the country will soon cast their ballots for elected office at all levels. When we do that as Americans, we’re making a pronouncement about what kind of country we want to live in and what kind of future we want to create for posterity. Though Democrats are running away […]
