Democrats are currently on track for a good midterm election year, maybe a great one, but Democratic excitement has likely reached the overhyped stage.
A pro-Israel Democratic advocacy group on Thursday released a framework intended to help the party better articulate its vision for the U.S. relationship with Israel, an issue that has deeply fractured Democrats this year and could lead to further divisions heading into the next presidential campaign.
President Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance will both hit the campaign trail on Thursday, but they will be heading to heavily Republican areas to shore up lagging enthusiasm in their party ahead of next month's midterm elections.
The Small Business Act tells the federal government why small business contracting exists: to preserve free competitive enterprise, ensure small businesses receive a fair proportion of federal contracts, and strengthen the nation’s economy. If firms with $500 million in revenue are allowed to position themselves as “small” to access set-aside contracts, it would undermine the core […]
One of the Army values is respect. It’s important. I’m careful to avoid allowing my column to disparage someone’s military service. Everyone who has served deserves some measure of respect. But even among soldiers, some perform better than others, or serve at peak levels at different times. I need to tell you about one Army […]
When a large industrial plant wants electricity, it often does not pay the same price a household pays. It can negotiate special contracts, accept interruptible or curtailable service in exchange for lower rates, or take service under tariffs designed for high-load-factor customers. It frequently pays rates closer to wholesale costs. Households and small businesses typically […]
When teachers are asked what wears them down most, they say it’s not worrying over their paycheck, but the behavior of students. Part of the reason student behavior has gotten so bad is disparate-impact liability. Thankfully, last week, the Education Department released a new regulation eliminating disparate-impact liability under Title VI of the Civil Rights […]
Imagine if a 2026 tradwife fell back into the 1850s: Would it be the life she always wanted, or is her nostalgic cosplay from a world that never existed? That’s the premise of Caro Claire Burke’s novel Yesteryear, which simultaneously attracts and repulses readers as much as the tradwife movement itself. We feel some tug […]
If you’re over 40, none of the following will require explanation. It’s literary canon, etched into your memory over countless summer days watching reruns, or days spent home “sick,” watching game shows in the morning and comedy reruns in the afternoon until your parents came home and you had to pretend that you hadn’t spent […]
With its ornate facade resembling an ocean liner, gilded portholes, and fat cherubs hanging festoons of grapes, the Hotel Lutetia is known as the Left Bank’s grand hotel. The hotel’s motto, “Fluctuat nec mergitur” (“She is tossed by the waves, but does not sink”), is also the motto of Paris itself, suggesting the city’s resilience. […]
The late Sen. Lindsey Graham was a fierce opponent of Vladimir Putin’s Russia, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and other authoritarian regimes. A new law named in Graham’s honor would strengthen sanctions against Moscow and Tehran and could help bring an end to a long and devastating war. Congress should pass it without delay. The […]
What if, in celebration of America’s 250th birthday, we eschewed UFC fights on the White House lawn and Grand Prix races around the streets of Washington, D.C., and instead buried our heads in an eclectic and engaging volume of short takes on all manner of quintessentially American phenomena? Happily, this idea, inspired and inspirational, is no […]
