The Netherlands has had a week in Texas, between matches in Dallas and Houston, and one of the leading members of its government delegation has been using the time...
The accelerating data center buildout across the nation has understandably produced anxiety over rising utility costs. The noise it has created is also myopic. The United States and China are in a race for dominance of the next great historic economic age. Success is non-negotiable. Tech sector capital spending has reached a zenith. Five of […]
For years, City Schools of Decatur openly obsessed over race. In 2017, the superintendent of the small school district miles from downtown Atlanta launched an equity office that trained its teachers and staff to pay an “education debt” to black students and families by discriminating against white students. The school district further directed white teachers […]
Once a serious legislative institution, today’s Congress requires reform. This problem is not partisan; it is institutional. Today’s members care more about showmanship than craftsmanship or leadership. They mistake publicity for governance and surrender legislative authority to other institutions. We require responsible leaders who will carry out their core constitutional duties seriously. Consider this: Congress […]
Careful analysis of the seemingly intractable problem of rising medical costs can typically be reduced to three things: 1) who pays? (the accustomed answer generally being “someone else”); 2) the creeping role of the federal government in making that determination; and 3) the parasitic, and growing, impact of litigation. The back-and-forth over the 340B drug […]
A Gallup poll conducted in August 2025 found that 66% of Democrats view socialism favorably, while only 42% of those same Democrats viewed capitalism favorably. At protests across American cities, demonstrators have carried Soviet flags, the hammer and sickle on red cloth, as symbols of resistance. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Rep.

This inquiry is unwise, not because people are facing food affordability challenges. Rather, the circumstances creating the drastic rise in critical farm supplies are primarily the result of a confluence of escalating geopolitical […]
The 13th Amendment abolished slavery. Most Americans know that. Fewer know the rest of that sentence: “except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted.” That clause has governed American prison labor for 160 years, and neither party will debate it honestly. The reasons are straightforward, and neither is constitutional. […]
Even a casual observer of college sports can see the system is broken. What was once a haven for amateur athletics has become big business, even bigger perhaps than the professional leagues that many of these young sportsmen and women hope someday to join. Fans are understandably aghast at the insanity of the new rules […]
The United States isn’t retreating from Europe into isolation, as some critics of the Trump administration claim. It is advancing in a different direction, and it is beginning where it should, by backing Poland as an important U.S. ally. On June 12, the administration announced a new $4 billion loan to Poland through its foreign […]
Reports are surfacing that White House aides are suddenly alarmed over the likelihood that top secret conversations on national security were taped and leaked...
