It’s still the economy, stupid

This week was, as President Donald Trump himself put it, bad for Republicans. We faced down election losses in Virginia, where voters embraced someone who drooled over the idea of murdering his political opponents and their families; New Jersey; and New York City, where voters embraced Zohran Mamdani, an Islamo-communist, with attendees at his victory […]

Now that Democrats won their elections, can they reopen the government before they kill holiday travel?

Right as Democrats swept Tuesday’s off-year elections, reclaiming a trifecta in Virginia and keeping New Jersey indigo blue, the party’s shutdown of the federal government set the record as the longest in the nation’s history. The overlap of the two events is no coincidence: nearly a quarter of Virginia’s electorate works for the federal government, […]

Mamdani — the mayor against America

Most modern socialists revealingly call themselves “democratic socialists.” The one socialist organization that didn’t do this, the exception that proved the rule, was the biggest communist state of all, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. It was a place of frank, archetypal dictatorship with no nonsense about democracy; its leaders wouldn’t stoop so low. But […]

Reinstitutionalizing the homeless

An original black-and-white chart from a 2009 law review article written by Columbia Law School professor Bernard E. Harcourt was colorized by the Economist, and you’ve probably seen it on whatever social media platform you get your news from. The chart shows the number of Americans, per 100,000, who were held in either prisons or […]

Giorgia Meloni’s strong leadership on Ukraine

“If we stop supporting Ukraine, we allow the invasion of Ukraine.

This is from a leader who, when she rose to power in Italy, Western media branded as extreme right-wing. She […]

A rising number of young people are embracing the idea that political violence is acceptable, thanks in part to increasingly hysterical Democratic rhetoric and the tolerance of blatant acts of violence on the national stage. A Politico-Public First poll found that 36% of adults aged 18 to 24 believe “there are some instances where violence is justified” when […]

Billie Eilish, the Generation Z pop star famous for her song “bad guy,” has decided there’s a new bad guy in town, and it’s not her; it’s billionaires. “If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?” she asked onstage at a recent event to celebrate innovators. “No hate, but, yeah, give your money away.” […]

Filibuster follies: Bipartisan threats to the Senate’s wall against chaos

The federal government has been shut down for over a month, and political finger-pointing has persisted since it began. Republicans claim that they have passed clean continuing resolutions that get blocked in the Senate, while Democrats argue that Republicans and President Donald Trump are refusing to negotiate, particularly over the issue of expanded Obamacare subsidies. […]

Democrats’ off-year wins remind us why the filibuster is needed

President Donald Trump again called on Republican senators to end the filibuster this month, a pitch he has made many times before.
