In an article titled "Terror in a Safe Space, a Year On," Walter Russell Mead argues that the diplomacy pursued by liberal presidents relies on military power and force, which liberals typically oppose. Mead suggests that policies based on denying reality do not achieve their desired outcomes. This perspective challenges the prevailing political debate and highlights the importance of acknowledging this truth. The article was published in the Wall Street Journal and offers a thought-provoking analysis of international relations. [Extracted from the article]

According to a recent poll, some consumers in the United States are hesitant to purchase electric vehicles (EVs) due to political reasons. Approximately 40% of respondents had a negative view of EVs, with 38% attributing their political beliefs as a factor. Conservatives often criticize public subsidies and regulations that support EVs, while liberals are more inclined to drive EVs for environmental reasons. This political divide presents a challenge for automakers as they strive to meet stricter emissions regulations and persuade consumers to transition to EVs. The article by Mike Colias explores the perspective of individuals aligned with the red-state mentality and provides insight into their reasons for disinterest. The article may be periodically updated, and readers can contact the author for further information. [Extracted from the article]

American Jews, who overwhelmingly support Israel, feel politically homeless as they are troubled by the growing influence of anti-Israel forces in the Democratic Party. They view President Biden's freeze on sending weapons to Israel and Senator Chuck Schumer's call for Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resign as evidence of capitulation to the party's hard left. Most American Jews understand the broader context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the threat that Hamas poses not only to Israel but also to Europe and America. The rise of antisemitism on university campuses is also a matter of concern, as simplistic categorizations and the abandonment of the liberal order are detrimental to Jews. American politicians seeking the support of the American Jewish community should take these concerns into account. [Extracted from the article]

President Joe Biden's presidency has not gone as planned, with two wars, a border crisis, and near-record inflation. His economic stewardship has received low confidence ratings, and he risks losing re-election if young progressives do not turn out to vote. The pandemic handouts intended to win votes have backfired, leading to inflation and high interest rates. Attempts to boost support with young people through student debt cancellation and climate policies have also been ineffective. Biden's opposition to foreign investment and easing of oil sanctions have further complicated matters. Like George Costanza from "Seinfeld," Biden's poor decisions have led to more trouble for himself. [Extracted from the article]

The article discusses the decline in public trust and confidence in American universities, which the author attributes to the politicization of these institutions. The author argues that universities have shifted from being centers of academic excellence to promoting political agendas, particularly in the areas of diversity, equity, and inclusion. This shift has led to the prioritization of identity politics over academic merit, resulting in the exclusion of certain perspectives and the erosion of free speech. The author suggests that universities should refocus on research and learning to rebuild their reputations as unbiased and objective institutions. [Extracted from the article]

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada is facing political challenges as he trails behind the opposition Conservatives in opinion polls. However, his government has been sustained by the support of Jagmeet Singh's New Democratic Party (NDP). In a significant move, the Liberals and the NDP announced a partnership until June 2025, with the Liberals supporting NDP-backed policies in exchange for Mr. Singh's promise not to initiate a no-confidence vote. While progress on NDP priorities has been slow, Mr. Singh faces a difficult decision as pulling the plug on the government could harm his party's influence and electoral prospects.

The article discusses the perception that Fatah, led by Mahmoud Abbas, is similar to Hamas, an organization known for its support of ISIS. The authors argue that liberals who advocate for a two-state solution fail to acknowledge this fact and the implications it has for Israel. They also highlight Abbas's controversial dissertation blaming the Holocaust on Jews and Fatah's financial support for the families of Palestinian terrorists. The article suggests that Fatah is essentially a less extreme version of Hamas. [Extracted from the article]
