President Donald Trump's "Board of Peace," which was initially seen as a mechanism focused on ending the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, is taking shape with ambitions to have a far broader mandate of other global crises, potentially rivaling the United Nations in what would be a major upheaval to the post-World War II international order.
President Trump’s power over the Federal Reserve will be front and center at the Supreme Court next week. The justices on Wednesday will hear arguments on whether Trump can fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook over accusations of mortgage fraud. Looming over it all is the Justice Department’s criminal investigation into Jerome Powell, the Fed’s chair,...
President Trump has invited the presidents of Egypt, Turkey and Argentina to join his newly created “Gaza Board of Peace.” The White House announced the board’s creation on Friday as part of the Trump administration's efforts to advance its 20-point peace plan for the region.

Watching The Naked Gun (2025), Akiva Schaffer’s remake of the 1988 slapstick classic, I got the impression he had been waiting his whole life to make this movie. The screenplay is a rapid‑fire catalog of jokes; ninety brisk minutes of sight gags, wordplay, and pratfalls. Not every joke lands, but most do, and many had […]

DON’T BE DISTRACTED — FOCUS ON WHAT HILLARY CLINTON DID. There’s a house-of-mirrors quality to the newly-declassified annex from special counsel John Durham’s investigation of the investigation in the Trump-Russia matter. What is true? What is genuine? What does it mean? There’s a simpler way to read it: Just focus on what we know the Hillary Clinton […]

The 2028 presidential election is still over three years away, but the tracks are already being laid for the Democratic primary. Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) appears to have unofficially kicked off this race. In April, Booker broke the record for longest speech on the Senate floor after a rambling diatribe where he didn’t say anything of value. Booker […]
