New York bans doctors from having sexual relations with patients — but not teachers having sex with students: Want any more proof that teacher-union...
President Donald Trump addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday. Naturally, Gavin Newsom showed up at UN headquarters the next day to play...
Comedian Bill Burr has sold out to the very people he once used to make a mockery of, choosing to pander to Hollywood liberals and social media socialists as a wannabe political pundit. Burr’s foray into Hollywood continues with a role in the film The Social Reckoning, a hit piece of a movie targeting Facebook […]
Steve Feinberg is a modern heir to the “dollar-a-year” men: business leaders who brought their experience managing American industry into government to strengthen the nation’s defense. That tradition today is rare, with many positions filled by policy experts instead. Congress should consider what our nation stands to lose if Feinberg’s tenure ends in frustration. Coming […]
President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping have offered friendly public displays during Xi’s state visit to Washington. Once again, however, the Chinese delegation traveling with Xi has shown its practiced disdain for local customs and etiquette. This impoliteness reflects the Chinese Communist Party’s demand for absolute loyalty to Xi and its respect only […]
Throughout American history, there have been moments when building on an enormous scale has been a national necessity. Think of how the New Deal brought electricity to rural communities, or how two decades later, Dwight Eisenhower launched the Interstate Highway System, one of the largest public-works projects in our nation’s history. We are entering another […]
The Sept. 30 deadline for Iraq’s militias to surrender their weapons is approaching, and Baghdad is already looking beyond it. That should surprise no one. The problem was never the date on the calendar. The problem is whether the Iraqi government has the power to disarm organizations that have spent years embedding themselves in the […]
It’s United Nations General Assembly high-level week, and you know what that means: high-level dignitary pageantry, high-level meetings on sensitive issues, high-level decision-making for universal matters, and high-level hate against one particular nation. There’s nothing quite like the chance to dunk on the Jewish state to bring the dysfunctional global family together. And there’s certainly […]
With the Supreme Court’s new term beginning in October, it will hear disputes over semiautomatic rifles, voter registration, and climate change. The subjects have little in common, but each presents a question at the heart of originalism. Will the justices apply the Constitution and laws as written, or reshape them to reach a preferred result? […]
This week, President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping, days after Anthropic’s Dario Amodei asked the industry to slow down, and the president called the whole idea a hoax. Neither leader is expected to entertain a pause, and on that point, both are right. Scientific discovery cannot be halted. Where […]
When people write about inner-city public schools, they like to use fun metaphors such as “the 3 R’s” or “an apple for the teacher.” But let’s skip the metaphors, because the majority of children who attend inner-city public schools have no idea what metaphors are. Let’s just tell the truth. Inner-city public schools suck. They […]
I attended Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address at the United Nations, expecting a contentious speech. What stayed with me was the decision by some delegates to leave before hearing what he had to say. My objection is straightforward: Governments that demand explanations from Israel should be willing to sit through one. Taking a seat […]
