By Jack Phillips Epoch Times A federal court on Friday ruled that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) overstepped its authority by halting evictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

By Andrew Sullivan And the realism that requires we live with it. There’s a story in a recent Atlantic memoir by a Uyghur refugee that lingers in the mind. The Chinese authorities in Xinjiang Province now regard the possession of any religious literature, including the Koran, as prima […]
By Matt Taibbi Eight days ago, on July 15th, The Guardian published an apparent bombshell by reporting curiosity Luke Harding and two other writers, entitled, “Kremlin papers appear to show Putin’s plot to put Trump in White House.” The paper claimed to have gotten hold of “leaked Kremlin […]
By Matt Taibbi Universities built palaces and financiers made fortunes in part through a lie: that student loans can’t be discharged in bankruptcy. But a series of court cases is helping unravel the scam. Stefanie Gray explains why, as a teenager, she was so anxious to leave her […]

The American Dream is “Who You Know.” It’s always been about that. Ties. Pledges. Suck-ups. Bribes. Blackmail. It’s never been about “work hard all by yourself.” Maybe .01% of people who grow up poor get out of that class bracket. The class system is set up in such […]
By Michael Shellenberger Solar Panels Will Create 50 Times More Waste & Cost 4 Times More Than Predicted, New Harvard Business Review Study Finds. Three years ago I published a long article at Forbes arguing that solar panels weren’t clean but in fact produced 300 times more toxic waste than high-level nuclear […]
I’m not sure about the degree to which there has actually been a “police pull back” following last year’s anti-police protests. Insufficient research has been done on the subject. But it is entirely possible, even probable, that there has been a police retreat in some localities, or in […]
The majority of Americans continue to be opposed to a national police force. By India Opzoomer, YouGovAmerica n the wake of nation-wide protests against police brutality and violence this year, some commentators proposed the creation of a national police force to replace or aid local law enforcement organizations.

By Toni Monkovic and Jeff Asher, New York Times Cities can be like people in at least one respect — it can be tough to shake a bad reputation. A recent New York Times quiz revealed some common misperceptions about crime trends, the most widely held of which […]
This article makes a pretty strong case that the supposed “crime wave” we are now experiencing is limited to homicide as opposed to crime generally. Some types of crimes are actually declining. And the rise in homicides is directly traceable to the economic, social, and psychological effects of […]
This is an interesting article. Many of these “progressive prosecutors” are still far too moderate for my tastes, even if they are an improvement over some of their rivals and predecessors. But, interestingly, criminal justice reform has become an issue that is the basis of cleavage between centrist […]
