The White Coat Waste Project exposed Wuhan funding five years ago

Five years ago, the truth was almost unpublishable. You couldn’t touch it with a 10-foot pole. If you tried to, you were an outcast, a kook, maybe even a racist. But it was nevertheless the truth: COVID-19 likely came from a lab leak in Wuhan, and that lab was funded by the United States government. […]

War is coming, and we are too complacent to stop it

Countries do not slide into war. They collapse into it suddenly, unexpectedly, and incredulously. “I had grown up in the optimistic belief that major wars were a thing of the past,” the philosopher Bertrand Russell recalled of the 1914 catastrophe. “When I heard the news of the war, I felt as if a curtain had […]

Should day care be like preschool or like Aunt Susie’s playroom?

How much should the government regulate child care? How much should the government subsidize child care? The public’s views on these questions cover a massive range.

In a recent sketch, three couples, two heterosexual couples and one gay couple, are socializing. The gay couple has a new baby. The other couples, shocked at the news, began to ask questions about the […]

Trump’s chaotic European defense spending messaging

The Trump administration is right to push European allies to urgently spend significantly more on defense. It should also be noted that tentative but significant moves by European powers to increase defense spending would not have occurred had Trump not retaken office. President Donald Trump’s Defense Department team further deserves praise for refocusing U.S. military […]

The Golden Age of transportation will make shipbuilding great again

President Donald Trump and I recognize that U.S. maritime power is now more important than ever. Novel seaways are opening new trade routes in the Arctic, and new canals are connecting distant places. Innovation in waterway technology is unlocking new development opportunities and potential conflicts.  That’s why the president signed an executive order Wednesday to revive […]

Make ‘rare’ earth mineral production less rare

China’s decision to suspend exports of rare earth minerals highlights a significant national security vulnerability that cannot be addressed by executive power alone. Three decades ago, the United States dominated the global rare earth minerals market.
