Canada's assisted-suicide numbers, and shocking stories like Brigitte Stegemann’s, are a warning to America of where the euthanasia movement is headed.
There is a troubling pattern emerging of government officials in America’s bluest states punishing religious organizations and individuals for simply living their faith. Whether the target is Catholic nuns or preschools, Christian pregnancy centers or charities, the message is the same: Conform your beliefs to the state’s progressive ideology or prepare for years of investigations, […]
We have absorbed a familiar story about falling birth rates: People are having fewer children. But averages can conceal profound differences. Imagine a country where women have, on average, two children. That could describe a society where most women become mothers and have two children, or one where half of women have four children and […]
A public pension trustee who strikes the diversity and climate language from an investment policy statement this summer is not doing housekeeping. He is making a fiduciary decision, and it needs the same financial justification the board owed when it added that language in the first place. Get the paperwork wrong in either direction, and […]
The European Union has, time and time again, promised “fairness” and “competition” in its digital regulations. Instead, what it has delivered is a regulatory regime with unnecessary digital trade barriers that hurt American technology firms, workers, and consumers. President Donald Trump and his administration have fought hard to win real trade victories for the American […]
If you’ve clicked “Accept All Cookies” for what feels like the billionth time, you’ve experienced something most Americans never think about: European regulation. Those seemingly endless privacy banners that now clutter every website didn’t appear because Congress passed a law. They became ubiquitous because the European Union’s privacy rules forced companies to redesign their websites, […]
U.S. Special Operations Command chief Adm. Frank Bradley recently warned that troops must be careful about how artificial intelligence enters the delivery of military force. The harder question is no longer whether the Pentagon will use commercial AI, but who will control the software once it becomes part of a mission. The answer should be […]
The 340B drug discount program grew to an eye-popping $100 billion in drug sales in 2025, making it the largest government program most people have never heard of. Enacted under the Public Health Service Act to require drug manufacturers to provide outpatient drugs at steep discounts to safety-net hospitals serving low-income patients, 340B has metastasized […]
President Donald Trump is not a leader who thinks in shades of grey. He has sorted the United States’s allies, by and large, into two categories: those worthy of diplomatic energy and close military coordination, and those who are not. The European nations, excepting Poland, fall into the “not” box. The gung-ho Asian tigers — […]
In the past few days, we’ve witnessed the unsettling images of tens of thousands of Moroccans, young unemployed Muslim men, clambering over the barbed-wire fence border between Morocco and Spain’s North African enclave of Ceuta. The images conjure up several ironies of Spanish history — a reverse “Reconquista” of Spain whereby Muslims avenge the final […]
It has been 157 days since the United States initiated its military campaign against the Islamic Republic of Iran. The beginning of the Islamic regime’s war against the U.S., of course, really started on Nov. 4, 1979, when Iranian students, working under the auspices of the new regime, seized American hostages in the U.S. Embassy. […]
For years, the Iranian government has attacked Israel mainly through proxies — Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. More recently, it has launched direct, gratuitous strikes on the Middle East’s only relatively free country. If holding this regime accountable isn’t morally justified, there is no such thing as moral justification. There is also a utilitarian argument […]
Is there a war going on between the United States and China right now? Yes — but not the kind we’re used to labeling. There is no hot war in sight yet, no missiles flying, no declared front. And “Cold War 2.0,” the label most often reached for, doesn’t quite fit either. The original Cold […]
