Commentary

Biden

Rumors about Biden’s reelection are flying in Washington circles, including one in which former President Obama advised him to quit the race, convinced he’s lost his grip.  There’s even one in which Biden plans to exit the race in July, with Michelle Obama replacing him.

Commentary

Air Power for Peace

All caught up with the Michigan Wolverines taking the National Championship and the political dueling in Iowa and New Hampshire, the story of the testing of the first B-21 Raider stealth bomber wound up on my stack of stuff.

An Unusual View of Trump by a Leftist Columnist

Commentary

I recall my delight, in 2017, when I read that Bret Stephens was leaving the Wall Street Journal for the New York Times.  It was a natural move for someone with leftist opinions on politics, which he also shares with viewers of MSBNC and NBC.
