It’s the telecoms who are invading our privacy.

It's a foot in the final frontier that America should keep.

ESG guidelines are no longer sacrosanct tools of coercion, department rules.

What makes the mayor of highly polluted, crime-ridden, poorly run Los Angeles think he should run the country?

During the Cold War, American intelligence efforts were divided. The NSA, FBI, CIA, and other groups functioned in an atmosphere of both cooperation and competition—“coop-tition”—to keep an eye not just on the Soviets but on each other. We didn’t put our eggs in one basket, to borrow a phrase.

In August, Oliver Schmidt pled guilty to helping Volkswagen evade clean air laws with special software that tricked emissions tests. The software worked even with cars whose emissions were 30 times higher than normally allowed.

Kal Ho Naa Ho is one of the most successful Bollywood movies ever. It’s a tragic love triangle among three very attractive Indians that made good inroads outside of the Indian market due to its setting: It all takes place in New York City. A better-known international setting than, say, Mumbai or…

The holiday shopping season is on. American shoppers spent $655.8 billion during the 2016 holiday season and that figure could climb to $682 billion this year.

Ten years ago, AMC’s Mad Men dazzled us with a new type of high-concept, prestige-format television drama. In the show’s second episode, Don Draper gives a particularly soaring speech about America, hope, and—yes—the value of advertising.

Whirlpool’s washing machine division has been rapidly losing market share to Korean competitors Samsung and LG. The company’s response is a reflection of the upside-down times we live in and a cautionary tale about interfering with free markets.

There’s a 2010 episode of The Office where the bumbling Michael Scott illustrates how bad he is with money: “This has not be a blockbuster year for me financially. My Blockbuster stock is down.”

Tesla honcho Elon Musk is not like Steve Jobs, Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, or even LeBron James, who made their billions through innovation in a free, fair market. Musk has made his wealth from the taxpayer (if not all, at least a lot of). In a particularly glorious, damning bit of…

Until he roared back onto the scene with his sure-to-please declaration that a free press was "indispensable to democracy," George W. Bush hadn't said too much since leaving the public eye in 2009. During the Obama years, we'd heard more from Will Ferrell as Bush than from Bush himself.

For years, the left has denounced Republicans as the villainous "party of the rich" while they've been the virtuous champions of the working class. But somewhere along the way—it may have been to that second viewing of Hamilton or coming home from Whole Foods, but regardless it was in a hybrid…

When the U.S. Federal Marshal system was founded, its mission was to execute all lawful warrants as officers of the courts. The main association with marshals is a lone, Wild West-style lawman, like Wyatt Earp or Rooster Cogburn, but the program was started by George Washington and continues to…

Back in the 2004, a brash state senator from Illinois lit a fire at the Democratic National Convention with his soaring rhetoric. One of Barack Obama's goals was to deliver a message of unity during a divisive campaign season, a message that Americans were more alike than they're dissimilar:

Legend has it that during the Black Plague, superstitious Europeans started killing cats. The idea was that witches had caused the plague and cats were disguised devils, serving as the witches' "familiar spirits," ergo killing them would hurt the witches and hopefully spare people from the disease.
