Since the United States announced it would “run” Venezuela and captured President Nicolás Maduro, the Trump administration has openly floated similar interventions elsewhere in Latin America.

Iran’s regime is on the ropes. The recent wave of protests, the government’s bloody crackdown, and the US threat of direct intervention all mark a profound turning point in its modern history.  The Islamic Republic’s current trajectory is unsustainable — without a course correction, a gradual internal disintegration of the economy and the increasing reliance […] Read more ›

It takes a lot to get people to movie theaters these days — and it might get even harder to catch blockbusters on the big screen in the near future. Or at least that’s what streaming giants like Netflix, which controversially acquired Warner Bros. Discovery in December, want you to think. The staggering $83 billion […] Read more ›

Between a $6 billion price tag and the complexity of hiring and training potentially thousands of educators, the mayoral candidate’s proposal to offer universal child care in New York City drew widespread skepticism during last year’s campaign.

This agenda pursued by the […] Read more ›
