A bipartisan Senate duo wants ByteDance to shut down its Seedance artificial intelligence tool, calling it a "glaring example" of copyright infringement that was launched without regard for U.S. law.
Joe Kent, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned Tuesday over concerns about the war in Iran, becoming the first senior Trump administration official to leave because of the military operation.
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 […]
There is an old saying: Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a pattern. Sometimes that saying needs to be adjusted depending on the circumstances. For example, one secret Chinese biolab on American soil is an accident; two secret Chinese biolabs on American soil are a national security risk. One of […]
Many people across the political spectrum were alarmed when they learned administrators at Texas A&M had prevented a philosophy professor from teaching the works of Plato because it violated legislative regulations designed to eliminate “woke” curricula in the state’s institutions of higher learning. Many conservatives, while generally sympathetic to efforts to eliminate left-wing indoctrination in […]
Philadelphia endured its worst winter storm since 2016, delivering nine inches of icy snow and subfreezing temperatures in January — an unrelenting wintry mix creating hazardous conditions throughout the area. Over two weeks later, many of the city’s streets, sidewalks, bus stops, and roads were still not plowed, as city taxpayer dollars continued to fund […]
The New York Times publishes two basic kinds of articles about family life in America: opinion pieces by women describing how terrible their husbands are and puff pieces promoting alternative family lifestyles. Last week, the outlet published one of the latter under the headline, “In Search of a Platonic Co-Parent.” Apparently, the burden of finding […]
The Trump administration recently released its National Security Strategy (NSS), as mandated by the Goldwater-Nichols Act of 1986. The NSS theoretically serves as the grand strategy document for the United States, linking the ends of policy and the means available to achieve them in light of limited resources. The reaction from the so-called “national security clerisy” has generally been negative. The New York Times calls it “misguided and dangerous.” The Atlantic calls it “incoherent […]
