Post readers discuss New York AG Letitia James’ aide allegedly ordering staff to target people associated with President Trump — and her Michigan counterpart saying Jews “have a moral...
It’s easy to feel a certain schadenfreude over news of Meta’s $16.7 billion settlement with almost every state attorney general. Sometimes bad things happen to bad corporations. It’s hard not to cheer. For years, Meta has largely gone unchecked as it employed a business model that basically amounted to psychologically manipulating people through Skinnerian principles […]
It’s not often in Washington, D.C. that a special interest group directly contradicts itself, but the Hemp Roundtable did just that. In 2022, the Associated Press exposed how chemists were chemically processing CBD extracted from hemp to produce delta-8 THC, an intoxicating compound. A loophole in the 2018 Farm Bill opened the floodgates to unregulated […]
Back around 2010, just before Halloween, a reporter friend retweeted a local police department’s warning to check your kids’ candy for drugs or razor blades or something like that. I asked, “Is there any evidence of something like that ever happening?”
How’s America doing? Government statisticians provide mounds of data that provide useful clues, and none more so than the Census Bureau’s estimates of population, announced in the holiday weeks at the end of each calendar year.

The Supreme Court should “unanimously” overturn Colorado’s ruling booting Donald Trump from the ballot, insists law prof Samuel Moyn at The New York Times.
The United Nations could not function without the United States. While every U.N. member must contribute to the organization’s budget to fund administrative costs, the U.S. contributes more than others. In 2023, the U.N. asked the U.S. to provide its usual 22% of its operating budget and asked taxpayers to foot the bill for 27% of peacekeeping expenses, although Congress caps this donation at 25%. Put another way, the U.N. charges the U.S. almost twice as much as China, five times as much as fellow Security Council members France and the United Kingdom, and nine times as much as Russia.
Two more high-profile cases of "swatting" should provide a reminder to everyone that swatting must be treated as a serious crime and prosecuted to the fullest extent of tougher laws.
Pro-Palestinian demonstrators tried to cancel Christmas at Rockefeller Center Monday; there were scuffles, some arrests, and a cop was injured — all in all,...
