The Apostle of Ireland and the Triumph of Faith Over Captivity
Saint Patrick’s life is a testament to the transformative power of conviction. The Feast of Saint Patrick is far more than a day of merriment, emerald attire, and jovial excess.

Tea, Secrets, and the Dragon’s Game: Inside Shanghai’s Quiet Theater of Chinese Espionage
The skyline of Shanghai rises like a monument to twenty-first century power. Steel. Glass. Capital. Technology. The skyline of Shanghai rises like a monument to twenty-first century power. Steel.

Chris Christie and the Curious Arithmetic of Power
The Christie brothers present a fascinating case study in modern American power. New Jersey politics has long resembled a carnival midway where the games appear simple, the prizes glitter enticingly, and the operators insist everything is perfectly legitimate.

The Democrat Party’s obsession with control knows no bounds. They are consumed by surveilling the American people in the hope that with each new shred of information, they’ll find a new way to expand their authority.

What Nixon told Trump about Iran, one champagne-soaked night in Houston
I first published this piece on November 18, 2019. Then, it was a historic look back at Donald Trump’s meeting with his hero, Richard Nixon, and the light that might shed on Trump’s approach to the presidency.

The Gracie Mansion Circus: ISIS Bombs, White Supremacy Blame, and Ramadan Theater
If modern American politics were not so dangerous it would be hysterically funny. Only in the surreal circus of contemporary New York City government could an ISIS-inspired bombing attempt be blamed on white supremacy while the Mayor Ayatollah Zohran Mandani hosts anti-Israel activists for dinner at the taxpayer funded mansion on the East River. Yes, […]
