President Biden now makes clear that the Southern border can no longer serve as a workaround to U.S. immigration laws. It is good politics for him but needed policy for the country.
Op-Eds
Cal Thomas: Biden border order: Too little, too late, too political
Funny how President Biden had no problem using his power to cancel former President Trump’s border restrictions by executive order, but as the election nears, Biden has suddenly discovered the power to do something after all.
Froma Harrop: The Manhattan jury pool isn’t all that liberal
Manhattan is a largely a rich borough, and its Republicans have tended toward traditional conservatism. They like civic order and a strong defense. Trump is not their guy. Trying to violently overturn the results of an election is beyond the pale. And only a dangerous clown would invite Vladimir Putin to invade Europe.
Cal Thomas: Politicized justice
Donald Trump’s conviction might be overturned, but the stain on our legal system is likely to remain for some time.
Letter from the CEO: Announcing the Maine Trust for Local News Community Board
We have recruited a diverse and dedicated group of Mainers to serve as the board’s inaugural members.
Rich Lowry: The secretary of transportation who couldn’t
There is, no doubt, a niche market for electric cars that will grow over time. Rather than letting this happen organically and in keeping with consumer preferences and sensible business choices by car manufacturers, the mandarins of the Biden administration are trying to force a transformation that drivers aren’t ready for and the infrastructure doesn’t yet exist to support.
Listen to Jason Kelce on homemakers, not Harrison Butker
Homemaking isn’t a role that women are born for. It’s a process that a family builds together.
Elliott Epstein: Legitimate protests should not be quelled, however unwelcome their message
But when protestors, regardless of the justice of their cause, injure, threaten, harass, or infringe the rights of others, they exceed the ‘limits’ of ‘liberty’ and should lose their ‘freedom to do everything.’
Rich Lowry: Something is going on, especially with Hispanic voters
This year they could prove too politically independent-minded.
Froma Harrop: Masks off, everybody — almost everybody
Campus life would be a lot more peaceful if these schools required demonstrators to show their mugs. That would not only put a brake on destructive behavior. It would also help the schools bar outsiders intent on using their well-groomed greens for partying or grifting — that is, collecting money for alleged causes and then pocketing it.
