Will Supreme Court Ruling Make It Harder for Noncitizens to Vote?

The Supreme Court’s Monday decision cleared the way for the Department of Homeland Security to establish a state-by-state list of eligible voters based on a crosscheck of citizenship data, the Social Security database, and other government information. “The DHS can determine who is eligible to vote because the federal government does not want to be […]

Elon Musk Should Reach for the Next Frontier—Not Buy the Last One

Elon Musk has built his career by refusing to compete on yesterday’s terms. Tesla did not set out merely to manufacture a slightly better gasoline-powered automobile.

Both companies challenged the basic assumptions of established industries—and forced the world to imagine what could come next. That is […]

We Need to Stop Letting in Ungrateful Immigrants

All Americans support legal immigration, especially legal immigration that is diverse, as I said, measured in numbers that can be assimilated and acculturated and integrated, meritocratic, so we get people who come here with skills that ensure that we, the people of the United States, will not have to support them, and they have some knowledge […]

They Keep Changing the Subject Because the Scoreboard Is Ugly for Them

Republicans who let the other side pick the topic of the week are doing the country’s work for its opponents.

Hold the crooks accountable. Beginning on day one. Follow the facts. Apply […]

The Big Tent and Karma

“We’re a big-tent party” is the latest talking point of frantic Democrats.  It sounds impressive, but what, exactly, does it mean? Democrats claim to welcome everyone regardless of race, religion, sex, or ancestry—with one caveat: You must agree with Democrat-approved opinions on all substantive issues, which makes it a rather peculiar kind of inclusiveness. One […]

He Went on Prime Time to Look Normal. Then He Asked About Circumcision.

Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Michigan, sat down Monday night for a long interview he did not have to take. He wanted to prove he could talk to people who do not already agree with him. What he proved is that his platform does not survive contact with plain questions. It was […]
