This is a bit awkward. When Donald Trump won the election in 2016, the Washington Post switched its motto to “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” It was very clear what they meant by this: Donald Trump is destroying democracy, and we, the Washington Post, will shine a light on Trump’s misdeeds in order to save democracy.

In a rare opportunity to directly affect European Union policy priorities, China is about to assume the EU presidency. OK, that’s only half true. Hungary is actually assuming the presidency of the Council of the European Union. But because Hungary is essentially a Chinese colony in Europe, this is a big opportunity for Beijing. Prime […]

Dating apps are feeding a broken dating culture on college campuses and beyond. While more than half of young adults say they have used online dating, the business model of dating apps is dependent on keeping people single and unhappy for as long as possible.

Seeking ways to deter U.S. support for Ukraine, Russia is pursuing a strategy of dangled escalation. Russia does not want a major confrontation with the United States, but it does want to encourage the Biden administration and Americans to believe that continued U.S. support for Ukraine is far riskier than it is beneficial. In that […]

Hillary Clinton wrote an embarrassing guest essay in the New York Times yesterday rife with both humorous and disingenuous jabs at former President Donald Trump.

Two decades ago, between 1998 and 2003, the budget of the National Institutes of Health was doubled. This was an extraordinary enterprise after the multi-year post-Cold War decline in defense spending and at a time when government agency budgets tended to be increased marginally or carried over from previous years.

The visit of Japanese Emperor Naruhito to Buckingham Palace Tuesday included a lavish formal dinner sufficient to make any Republican’s hair rise.
