Truth, Justice, and the Fine Art of Not Looking the Other Way

Washington suddenly seems to be rediscovering the concepts of truth, justice, and responsibility. And honestly? It’s about time. For a town that couldn’t find its own moral compass with a GPS, a map, and three tour guides, we’ll take the progress where we can get it. President Trump’s administration has been busy trying to broker…

A World Hungry for Justice, Clarity, and a Little Common Sense

If you look across yesterday’s headlines — from Chile’s political shake-ups to U.S. debates over Epstein files, from Bangladesh’s explosive verdict to America’s military reboot and the messy Comey prosecution — you start noticing a theme: people everywhere are tired of chaos, tired of double-talk, and very, very tired of leaders who think accountability is…

Bombs, Boats, and the Battle Against the Bad Guys
