While patrolling the Iron Curtain in the 1980s, I saw firsthand the importance of American leadership, the value of strong alliances, and the moral strength that springs from our national values. I also saw something more basic: Our security depends on the United States maintaining an edge in advanced technologies. Our advantage on the battlefield...
Vice President Kamala Harris has enjoyed a strong first month as the presumptive Democratic Party nominee for the 2024 presidential race. The advantage of not having to campaign through a primary and compete against other members of her party around policies, issues and ideas is that there is less to criticize. The media has not...
Former (and I think future) President Donald Trump is the best interview in the U.S. because unlike almost every other political figure, Trump answers the questions asked and tells you exactly what he thinks. Trump was back on my radio show Wednesday morning. My focus was on Israel and that led to this long exchange:...
According to media reports, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. will suspend his presidential campaign as early as Friday and may even endorse former President Trump. But the question remains: will that have any impact on the race? Based on the people I’ve talked to, the answer may well be yes. I will be...

Whether we’re talking about how a grateful nation embraced President Joe Biden as he passed the torch to Vice President Kamala Harris and a new generation of leadership or former President Barack Obama reminding us that “the ties that bind us together” as a nation and a people are stronger than the hateful rhetoric, conspiracy...
Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, will tout their education policies to the nation this week at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Walz, a former teacher married to a former teacher, speaks often about his time in the classroom. But anyone curious about the future of education under...
When we first spoke about it, we were really the only ones doing so. Now, it’s one of the most talked about cultural and political issues of the day. From Olympic athletes to politicians running for office; from middle school girls to NCAA athletes; from celebrities to journalists, coaches and parents, people everywhere are discussing...
For someone whose only job the last four years was tobe ready, Vice President Kamala Harris may be the least-prepared major party nominee in the history of American elections.
