In opposing President-elect Donald Trump’s mass deportation plans, there is a notion going around that, actually, an immigrant influx is the way to bring the United States back to prosperity. The New York Times has editorialized as much — but misses that the family is at the center of most immigrant communities. The outlet has […]
Xi Jinping has a not-so-subtle message for the West: China intends to seize Taiwan. And it may be up to President-elect Donald Trump to stop them. In his annual New Year’s address, the Chinese president said, “People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are one family” and added, “No one can sever our family bonds, […]
Idolatry is an age-old and well-warned danger. And it involves a dissolution of humanity that is obvious in artificial intelligence, but is present also in TikTok. The controversial social media platform is up for a Supreme Court decision on whether to ban it in the United States. But TikTok regulation is more than just an […]
HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania — Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA) took the threat of the avian flu head-on at a town hall at the 109th annual Pennsylvania Farm Show, saying that as HPAI spreads to dairy in other states, his administration would remain proactive and aggressive in establishing a nation-leading surveillance-testing system for milk at the processor level. “Because […]
In the 14 months since Hamas killed 1,200 people and kidnapped 254 hostages during its Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack against Israel, evidence of Western aid dollars enriching terrorist organizations and operatives in Gaza has grown. The United Nations and donor countries have been slow to accept this evidence or make changes to their operational […]
In a blow against anti-Israel insanity, the House passed a bill Thursday slamming the International Criminal Court for its ludicrous campaign against Prime Minister...
Proponents of the Domino Theory convinced the public to support military intervention in Vietnam. But the fall of Vietnam did not lead to a communist sweep of Southeast Asia. In the end, more than 58,000 American soldiers were lost in a conflict based on a faulty premise. Iraq War boosters cast a similar spell over […]
What’s the worst job imaginable? Slaughterhouse worker, World Trade Center window washer, or Facebook fact-checker might come to mind, but that onerous burden really falls on Thomas Hutter, the real estate agent tasked with selling a castle to a vampire in Robert Eggers’s Nosferatu, a haunting remake of the century-old silent classic Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror. The […]
The murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson caused the media to highlight sensationalist negative stories about health insurers. One important fact these stories ignore is that older Americans increasingly choose private insurers to manage their Medicare benefits. These plans are called Medicare Advantage, and 54% of Medicare beneficiaries now opt for them. The Biden administration […]
President-elect Donald Trump promises to bring peace to Ukraine shortly after he takes office on Jan. 20. Many speculate that he will pressure President Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukraine’s leader, to accept ceasefire terms heavily favorable to Russia. This is unlikely. Trump has surrounded himself with advisers and officials who understand that Russia cannot be negotiated with […]
A nation must stand up to its enemies. Long ago, when the Danes swept across the North Sea into what is now England, its rulers tried to pay off the Danes with gold. Historians call that the “Danegeld.” However, the bribes did not work. The Danes kept coming back for more and ultimately took all of what […]
When a U.S. president bestows major non-NATO ally status on countries, it is not just an honorific. The status bestows privileges on the recipient, allowing it favorable access to materials and supplies and even technologies still in the testing process. Major non-NATO allies also often preposition supplies and undertake regular training with the U.S. military. […]
As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to reenter the White House, he faces a world markedly different from the one he left. War rages in Europe, the Middle East is once again in turmoil, and China is more emboldened and belligerent than ever. Compounding these challenges is the steady fraying of America’s traditional alliances, especially in […]
Sometimes, ostensibly discrete global events come into focus and form a unified pattern. When that happens, the world suddenly starts making sense. Here are some examples of “disparate” occurrences: The governments of Europe’s three most powerful countries suddenly complain that Elon Musk’s X is allowing conservatives to communicate and unite on a global basis, Facebook […]
