Members of Congress are pressing the Environmental Protection Agency over its renewed support for animal testing and its backsliding on rabbits that were supposed to be retired, saying the government must seek out more humane ways to do science.
Two names were floated by former President Donald Trump over the weekend as possible choices as his running mate for the 2024 presidential campaign. During an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures, Trump reluctantly mentioned Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) as two people he is considering for vice president.

You would expect a retired four-star Army general to be a better leader than a foreign monarch. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, after all, attended numerous military leadership schools during his 41 years in uniformed service. In contrast, while he is the nominal commander in chief of the British Armed Forces, King Charles III of the […]
We will have more in our editorial on Tuesday on the “Biden border bailout bill,” but I saw this headline from Politico and had to laugh: “Detention and that border ‘shutdown’: What’s really in Biden’s bipartisan immigration deal.” In the article, Jennifer Scholtes and Caitlin Emma report that the Senate border bill has “$8 billion […]
The Chinese government may have found a much easier way to undermine America from within: by infiltrating its open southern borders. Chinese immigrants are now the fastest-growing number of illegal nationals breaking into the United States.

Glassbrook Elementary School is one school that needs to heed this warning and clean house. Nestled between Oakland […]
Robert Smalls is one of this country’s greatest heroes, yet most people have not heard of him. Living in relative anonymity compared to black history icons such as Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass, Smalls’s contribution to American history should not go unnoticed. Born into slavery, Smalls became a soldier during the Civil War, a politician […]
In the age of democratic elections, it is extremely rare to see a political candidate command the support of more than 80% of an electorate as El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele did Sunday in the country’s presidential election. It’s an eye-popping result for an entirely free election that underscores the extent to which Bukele, in […]
When I started a housing advocacy group in Washington, D.C.’s educated, affluent, politically progressive northern Virginia suburbs, I hoped residents would be able to have a respectful civic dialogue about loosening zoning laws that make housing expensive. But by the time one of them challenged my city’s mayor to a fistfight, I knew that housing […]
