In America, the government is rarely doing the job it claims to do with the millions it takes from us in taxes, such as building and maintaining safe roadways. Instead, citizens are robbed twice: first financially, then of their rights, as the state justifies its existence through promises it routinely fails to keep. The people […]

The $260 billion budget proposal introduced by Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) in January included a significant increase to Medicaid spending. However, the governor’s election-year budget won’t quiet accountability calls regarding an alleged Medicaid abuse scheme by the state of New York and concerns over a possible cover-up by the Hochul administration. It appears to include […]

Its nuclear-powered attack submarines and ballistic missile submarines remain unmatched in speed, endurance, and global reach. Yet despite this extraordinary quality, the Navy faces a growing strategic problem in the Western Pacific that technology alone cannot solve: there are simply not […]
The great violin virtuoso Itzhak Perlman posted a 1964 video on social media this week in which he is seen at age 18 playing a violin concerto. It’s a striking clip not only for Perlman’s mastery of instrument and nuance but also because he was not playing for aficionados but for a mass audience on […]
For decades, the United States has led the world in developing groundbreaking medications that allow patients to live longer and healthier lives. Despite these contributions, American families pay substantially higher prices for these breakthroughs than patients in any other country. The Trump administration just announced a major new policy to ensure seniors with chronic conditions […]
In Davos last month, President Donald Trump offered the world a clear demonstration of peace through strength, reintroducing an unapologetic “America First” agenda to the global stage. The president held NATO members accountable for true burden sharing and reaffirmed U.S. regional security dominance — all part of a “Promises Made, Promises Kept” priority agenda. This […]
Since President Donald Trump‘s first term, one of Europe‘s central objectives has been to demonstrate that it is willing to meet its spending commitments and shoulder greater responsibility for Europe’s continental security. To give credit where credit is due, Europe’s NATO members have now stepped up to the plate under immense dual pressure: both from Washington, in terms of pushing allies to […]
There are many Afghan allies whose heroism saved American lives and enabled U.S. successes over nearly two decades of war. Among them is a small group of women from the Female Tactical Platoon. Recruited to take part in missions alongside Afghan and U.S. special operations forces conducting night raids on high-value enemy targets, the FTP gave their […]
You don’t often find the philosopher Donald Trump of Queens and the historian Thucydides of Athens in the same article. Kudos, as Thucydides would say to Foreign Policy magazine. A Foreign Policy contributor from the Rand Corp. argued last April that Trump is running a “grand experiment” in realist theory, the view of international relations […]
Young men are turning to fascism. I don’t use that word lightly. Hypochondriac leftists apply it to everything they dislike, from farmers’ markets to air travel. Still, when I see the combination of antisemitism, white nationalism, hostility to markets, and apologias for actual, literal Nazism (notably through the elevation of Adolf Hitler’s legal apologist, Carl […]
Throughout President Donald Trump‘s second, nonconsecutive term, pundits across the political spectrum have warned that the economy is on the cusp of mass job losses. They have cited everything from the demonstrable downward pressure on the labor market from tariffs to Trump’s orders for the Federal Reserve, an independent body, to immediately slash the federal […]
The best government data will be delayed again, thanks to yet another shutdown caused by the Democratic Party. But the best private data show rents fell again in January, the sixth month in a row, leaving them 1.4% lower than a year ago, the first decline in decades. President Donald Trump’s mass deportation policies are […]
Enforcing federal immigration law is the remit of the federal government alone, per Supreme Court precedent — the court famously ruled against Arizona’s efforts to step up enforcement at the state level during the Obama administration — but said enforcement is a more efficient and safer process for everyone involved when state and local authorities […]
