Six war terms that should be discharged from service

President Donald Trump raised the stakes in the Iran war last Friday by demanding the regime’s unconditional surrender. The president’s rhetoric is evolving as quickly as the modern battlefield, while cable news panels and editorial pages keep recycling the same tired clichés born during the Iraq debate or earlier. These phrases often obscure more than […]

Don’t call for intifada and then condemn intifada

In yet another Islamic terrorist attack in recent days, Ayman Mohamad Ghazali rammed his truck through the doors of the Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan.

Believe it or not, the race for the Democratic nomination has already narrowed to two main players and a gaggle of extras.

For most of my professional political life, I have lived and worked in the world of coalitions — building them, expanding them, and helping them endure and expand. I have been a student and practitioner of governance for more than half a century. From Ronald Reagan’s “big tent” conservatism to Jesse Jackson’s “Rainbow Coalition,” America’s […]

Do Wisconsin Democrats care about improving schools?

Seven years ago, Gov. Tony Evers (D-WI) took office after a decade as the Badger State’s superintendent of public instruction. He had the resume to become a nationwide leader in education policy. Instead, his tenure ushered in an era of blocked reforms and educational missteps. Most galling, State Superintendent Jill Underly lowered the minimum score […]

All eyes are now focused on what is left of Iran’s navy and the Strait of Hormuz. Even though the U.S. military has sunk or destroyed 60 of Iran’s ships, the threat from Iranian naval vessels remains. There is now reporting that Iran might be taking steps to mine the Strait of Hormuz, and U.S. […]
