Are We There Yet?

By |March 17, 2026|

“Are we there yet?” may be funny coming from kids on a road trip, but it is a dangerous way to think about war and national security. Using a family travel story as the setup, this piece argues that America’s struggle with Iran cannot be measured in days or weeks, but in decades of aggression, missed opportunities, and the long game our enemies are already playing.

Shall Not Be Infringed

By |March 11, 2026|

What happens when the state that gave America James Madison considers legislation that critics say undermines the very rights he helped enshrine? A proposed Virginia law would ban the future sale of certain semi-automatic firearms and magazines, igniting a fierce debate over the Second Amendment, constitutional limits, and the role of government in regulating arms. Supporters argue the measure promotes public safety. Opponents say it contradicts both the historical purpose of the amendment and Supreme Court rulings affirming an individual right to keep and bear arms. With the bill now sitting on the governor’s desk, the controversy highlights a broader national clash over constitutional interpretation, public safety, and the enduring meaning of the right to bear arms.
