This issue featured Andrew Ferguson's cover story on microaggression as another failed social science trend, examining how such concepts have gained traction in American institutions. The magazine also covered significant political developments including H.R. McMaster's role at the National Security Council, the NRA's overlooked contribution to Trump's 2016 victory, and an in-depth tribute to conservative intellectual Michael Novak following his death. Additional pieces addressed Trump's contentious relationship with the press, Democratic state attorneys general as potential obstacles to the administration, and the military buildup needed to restore American solvency.
