In March, a declassified intelligence summary surfaced describing intercepted Ukrainian government communications from late 2022. The summary said officials in Kyiv, working with unnamed American personnel through the aid mission there, discussed a clean-energy infrastructure project as cover. Hundreds of millions in taxpayer money would be approved. About 90 percent would be routed through U.S. […]

On Wednesday the State Department and Treasury labeled Autistici/Inventati—the A/I Collective—a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. It is an Italy-based tech shop that does not sell widgets. It sells anonymity to people who use it for riots, sabotage, and propaganda. Same week, Washington hit two other far-left networks in the same package. The message was not […]

Zohran Mamdani sold New York a simple product: child care from six weeks to five years, no fee, no income test, no citizenship test. Campaign price tag: about $6 billion a year, billed to the rich. The city is now discovering that “free” is a waiting list with a hole in the budget. New York […]
