President Donald Trump wants America to establish something it has never had: a national academy dedicated to preparing Americans for the space age. Now comes another consequential question: Where should we put it? The decision should not simply come down to which governor offers the most land or which congressional delegation has the most influence. […]
A fall chill is in the air, football season is underway, and the Ice Bucket Challenge — a throwback to 2014 — is back in the news. Former NFL star Chris Johnson, who recently revealed that he is living with ALS at just 39, is helping revive the viral phenomenon that once filled social-media feeds […]
Democrats are discovering something on the campaign trail that conservatives have been saying for years: Men want to know that being a man still means something. That discovery comes at an interesting time. The Associated Press reported that masculinity has become an undercurrent in several important 2026 Senate races. Democratic candidates are trying to project […]
For more than 80 years, shareholders of companies have had the right to put forth proposals or recommendations on a host of issues, urging the company to take specific actions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Division of intends to gut that rule, known as Rule 14a-8, in a systematic effort to weaken the […]
In this country, many on the Left blithely toss off comparisons between President Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler. Their rad comrades in Germany also have a nominee for the top leadership position in the coming Fourth Reich: the Alternative for Germany party, or AfD. A Nazi replay is really not the goal of the right-wing […]

It doesn’t make sense for voters, it doesn’t make sense for candidates, and it doesn’t make sense for our election system. Think about it. We would never schedule the general election in the middle of August. Families are on vacation. […]
Monday’s Supreme Court order handed the Trump administration a win on mail-in voting. Don’t order the champagne yet. The court didn’t say the president’s plan is lawful. It said a district judge in Boston moved too fast. That’s the entire ruling, and if Congress mistakes it for a finish line, election integrity loses its only […]
Casey Putsch and James Fishback built national followings almost entirely online. Both lost their respective Republican gubernatorial primaries by wide margins. The results warrant closer attention than a routine underdog defeat, because both campaigns were built on an identical and identifiably flawed theory of how digital attention converts into votes. Putsch never had a realistic […]
Oman’s strategy of calculated neutrality has run out of road. Long celebrated as a quiet diplomatic bridge between Washington and Tehran, Muscat has shattered its careful balancing act. A desperate attempt to revive a paralyzed shipping economy has transformed Oman into a central participant in a military conflict between the United States and Iran. The […]
I would love to think that Mark Zuckerberg saw the light. Meta, Zuckerberg’s massive tech company that owns Facebook and Instagram, agreed to a $17 billion settlement with 47 state attorneys general who had sued the company for deliberately addicting children to its products. In addition to the financial penalties, Meta agreed to implement features […]
The United States and Saudi Arabia are in the final stages of a landmark nuclear arrangement. But a pact between longtime allies must not become a backdoor for America’s enemies. Congress must demand that the administration make the classified agreement public and put essential safeguards in place. On July 22, the White House announced that […]
The state of California began informing local charities last week that it was running out of funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)...
