We already know this rule: You aren’t permitted to leave a museum without running into a gift shop. I also discovered late last week in Paris that you can’t walk out of the newly restored Notre-Dame cathedral without passing a large gift zone near the arrow that points to Sortie de secours. And you can’t […]
At first glance, Blackie & Co.: Blackbirds in My Garden, by the English writer Hockley Clarke, is quite unsurprisingly a nice little book about blackbirds. Namely, two birds, father and son, whose relationship with Clarke began one bitter night in 1962. It was Europe’s coldest winter in 80 years, and, to give the bird a […]
The Army announced Wednesday that its Janus Program has selected five companies to build nuclear microreactors at five military installations, committing up to $2.2 billion to an effort that could eventually put more than 20 reactors across War Department facilities. It is the latest evidence that President Donald Trump’s revival of American nuclear power could […]
President Donald Trump's push to acquire Greenland added a new security dimension to Iceland's EU referendum, with 275,000 eligible voters weighing in.
Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg and Judge Juan Merchan got their way Thursday, maneuvering a jury of former President Donald Trump’s peers into finding him...
The term “kangaroo court” has seemed an apt and amusing term to apply to the trial of former President Donald Trump in Manhattan during the past month. But now that, for the first time in history, a former president has been found guilty of felony indictments, it cannot be regarded as anything other than a […]
DOES ‘GUILTY’ VERDICT CHANGE THE RACE? Former President Donald Trump’s supporters, nearly all of the Republican base plus millions who see Trump as a better choice for the White House than President Joe Biden, will see the guilty verdict against Trump in New York as deeply unfair and deeply politicized. But Alvin Bragg, the Democrat […]
The most brazen and carefully orchestrated political persecution in the history of the United States was just given a rubber stamp of approval by 12 New Yorkers who delivered 34 guilty verdicts against former President Donald Trump. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Judge Juan Merchan boldly colluded in a state courtroom to […]
Former President Donald Trump may have been found guilty of all 34 felony counts levied against him by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, but the only real crime is not Trump’s supposed falsification of business records — it’s the rigged verdict resulting from a kangaroo court that ought to offend our sense of common decency. […]
The guilty verdict in former President Donald Trump’s New York hush money trial shows how Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has helped warp New York City’s justice system. Bragg’s case against Trump was nothing more than a bookkeeping crime trumped up into a felony under the theory that Trump purposefully misclassified hush money payments to […]
Former President Donald Trump should withdraw from the presidential race. There is no other honorable option. This is simple: A unanimous jury has found Trump guilty on 34 felony counts. Our system of laws requires that we respect unanimous juries. The president is the chief executive of the laws of the United States. For the […]
I am thoroughly unconvinced by the arguments to vote for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and I won’t vote for him, but I’m just as unconvinced by the standard argument against voting for him. Liberal New York Times columnist Gail Collins makes a noble 2024 stab at the age-old argument that it’s somehow an abdication of […]
PHILADELPHIA — If you have listened to any of the handful of speeches that President Joe Biden has given to black universities, communities, or schools in the past few weeks as his black support has eroded, you would think in just the past few years we had never had the first black president of the […]
Regardless of what verdict the jurors in New York City render in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s contrived prosecution of former President Donald Trump, the lack of interest in the trial may turn it into a major asset for the former president. As the jury in the trial continues its deliberations, the rest of the […]
President Joe Biden’s age problem isn’t just that he is old and at times unable to string together coherent sentences. His problem is also that he has been in politics since the 1970s. CNN’s Harry Enten highlighted that Biden won voters between the ages of 18-24 in the 2020 election by 32 points, but his […]
