Vice President Kamala Harris selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her Democratic running mate on August 6, offering a balance of different races and genders — if you’re one of those traditionalists who still believes in those binaries. But their ideology is a pretty strong match. Walz is especially “progressive” on abortion on demand, on...
Columbia University has finally parted ways with its failure of a president—and the only surprise is that it took so long. Minouche Shafik, whoresigned on Wednesday, leaves a legacy of division and violence. But her departure isn’t nearly enough to fix one of America’s most important universities. The school must prove—from top to bottom—that it’s...
From 2004 until 2019, the responsibility to enforce law and order in San Francisco fell to District Attorney Kamala Harris and her protégé George Gascon. The result? By any estimation, it has been an ignominious disaster. Even as you drive from the airport to downtown in this once great city, the sight that greets you...
Politicians love to spend other people’s money. That obvious truth has never been more clear than on this, the second anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Sold to the American people as a means of mitigating the rampant inflation unleashed by the Biden-Harris administration’s prior federal spending spree, the administration was – once again...
As secretary of state, I often emphasized that the risk posed to America by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is not only abroad, in places like Taiwan or South Korea, but also here at home – in places like Des Moines, Wichita and Tallahassee.

“To preserve our independence,” Thomas Jefferson once said, “we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt.” Or, as Benjamin Franklin said, in his everyman style, “those who go a-borrowing, go a-sorrowing.” The warning from our founders has fallen by the wayside. Reckless spending by career politicians in Washington has left our nation...
Many federal agencies have implemented hybrid work models, allowing leaders to refine strategies to adapt to evolving employee needs and mission-driven objectives. However, as the White House’s Office of Personnel Management (OPM) releases flexible new guidance in August on federal remote work, it becomes evident that there is tension between this flexible approach and congressional...
In the late 1970s, “Saturday Night Live” ran a sketch with Chevy Chase and Richard Pryor in which the Black and White comedians engaged in a word association game that consisted of them hurling racial slurs at each other, culminating in theracial slur. It was hilarious and something that would never be broadcast today. But...
If you’d been robbed by a person, you’d be insane to have that same individual investigate the crime. That’s essentially the situation with Vice President Kamala Harris’s plan to reduce the very inflation she helped cause. Like burglar who won’t admit to the robbery, Harris is casting blame elsewhere and proposing an economically illiterate agenda...
We don’t know whether Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Trump will win the White House this fall. But there are two things we do know: The 2024 presidential election is likely to be tight. And regardless of the victor, Harris will co-preside over her victory or defeat when the House and Senate convene...
