An opinion writer argues that recent U.S. military actions and tensions in strategic waterways highlight the limits of hard power and the risks of overextending American influence. The piece calls for a renewed emphasis on diplomacy, international cooperation and “soft power” as the foundati…

Dear President Trump, thank you for keeping us safe. Iran once posed a real threat. No more. Thanks to your insight, and with the help of Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu, you bombed Iran into submission, and it took only a “week or so.” You achieved the impossible by getting Iran to eliminate it…

The analysis article by Samia Nakhoul of Reuters published Wednesday June 17th (Gulf recalibrates as Iran emerges intact from war) did an excellent job of detailing what a colossal geopolitical blunder the United States has made in undertaking (with Israel) the war against Iran. We have been…

You are to be congratulated on your near successful avoidance of any reference to the international football (soccer) competition known as the World Cup - a competition, which, I hear, is taking place in 3 countries in North America and which, in its final rounds, is being played by teams fr…

Well, we just had UFC fights on the White House South Lawn. One of the participants yelled that Michelle Obama is a man, which caused Trump to smile. Pretty classy. What's next? Strippers and pole dancers in the East Room?

Under recent administrations, our Deficit has continued to grow, but especially under the current one. Explain how arresting, imprisoning and deporting thousands of immigrants is helping our national budget. The cost of purchasing & retrofitting giant warehouses; the cost of feeding &…

All of the liberal media, with CNN leading, rushed to the algae infested Reflecting Pool in Washington DC to report on the disaster. CNN even took a sample and sent it to a pool company for analysis. This whole journalistic effort deserves a Pulitzer. However, no comment on how DC has been s…

Thanks to Barbara Liguori for her excellent op-ed. New data centers in Tucson and Marana can be powered by solar farms and battery energy storage systems. Beale Infrastructure must build solar farms backed up batteries so that they generate their own electricity.
Anadem for his head, tunic for his ample body (white, of course, to capture the purity of his station and being), sandals for his feet (easily slipped on and off after repetitive washing away the drool of supplicant proximity).
Our President seems to have lost his touch in selling his successes to the American public. His new “American flag blue” Reflecting Pool is full of green algae and the blue paint is peeling. His “wall of shame” is covered in tarps after removal of his name from the Kennedy Center.
Before World War Two, the War Department had offices scattered throughout the Washington metro area. In May 1941, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, realizing a world war was imminent, approved plans to build a structure large enough to consolidate all military agencies under one roof.
The great dealmaker brags about his agreement with Iran, but in reality, he is the loser having to negotiate with the very Iranian leadership he had wanted to destroy. The Iranians managed to resist and even badly hurt the greatest military might; they continue building weapons, and they wil…
Please vote for Joanna Mendoza for Congress. She is strong enough and smart enough to stand up to DJT’s unhinged presidency in order to advocate for the needs of the American people. Her military leadership demonstrated a fearlessness in doing what was right and necessary. Mendoza is who we …

The Herald has missed its mark in offering us reassurance of the court’s stability and the strength of democracy. And when it values confidence over honest scrutiny, its words ring hollow.
“Oh no, not us — not ever.” For 10 years running, that’s been the Democratic response to any suggestion that grassroots liberals are like Republican voters and equally susceptible to supporting scandal-plagued populists like President Donald Trump.
I was seated onstage at Grand Valley State University’s commencement when Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak leaned into the microphone and reframed the entire conversation about artificial intelligence in six words.
Banning vile views is counterproductive, deprives public of chance to engage, reject
