“Frankness is essential,” argues Spiked’s Brendan O’Neill after the mayhem at the Berlin Pride Parade, yet despite the attacker being “known for having connections...
Mayor Zohran Mamdani's much-discussed smile belongs not to the friendly, well-intentioned neighborhood socialist he's advertised himself as, but a toothy, vindictive predator.
“Show me a school that I shut down,” Anthony Fauci challenged his critics in Congress. “I never did.” As America’s top infectious disease official during the COVID-19 pandemic, Fauci often brushed off criticisms, insisting that he never shut anything down. His defense is not a total lie. On the literal level, Fauci didn’t have the […]
Gen. Dan Caine’s responsibility as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is to balance finite military capabilities against many military contingencies. This hard task is made harder by the unstable international security environment. But considering the balance of U.S. strategic interests, Caine’s first priority is to maximize the U.S. military’s ability to deter or […]
We are now over a decade past the beginning of the Black Lives Matter movement, and six years past its height in the summer of 2020. With the damage that movement has done to race relations, it is clear that race relations arsonists should be expelled from polite society, starting with Ben Crump. The shooting […]

Every argument about 2028 assumes Republicans are picking a favorite between Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Not so. They’re deciding whether the party is still an instrument for governing or has become a monument to whoever built it last. I’ll say directly what most Republicans won’t: Rubio is better built […]
When Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said this week that the United States was finding American “watermarks” embedded deep inside Chinese artificial intelligence models, he signaled a potential shift in geopolitical statecraft. For four years, Washington treated the technology competition with Beijing as a hardware fight — a battle over physical silicon, lithography equipment, and advanced […]
The Food and Drug Administration does not exist to make popular medical trends look official. It exists to separate medicine from marketing. That is why the latest vote by the FDA’s Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee deserves far more scrutiny than it has received. According to STAT, the advisory panel narrowly recommended that compounding pharmacies be […]
