The Senate’s Iran Vote: A Constitutional Moment Wrapped in a Political Mess

When Congress enacted the War Powers Resolution in November 1973, overriding President Nixon's veto by the constitutionally required two-thirds majority in each chamber, its intention was historically legible. The Vietnam War had consumed more than 58,000 American lives, prosecuted for years without a formal declaration of war. The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution of 1964, passed on the basis of factual claims later shown to be false or exaggerated, had been used to justify an open-ended military commitment that the country spent a decade trying to escape. Congress intended that no president would again commit American forces to armed conflict without the collective judgment of the legislative branch bearing on the decision.

They Built the Digital Classroom and Now They’re Tearing It Down

Swedish parliament's own education committee chair put it plainly: reading and writing ability has declined significantly, especially among younger students. The solution? Books. Traditional learning. Less screen time.

The Free Ride Is Over: Medicaid Was Built for the Vulnerable, Not the Able-Bodied

Medicaid was not built for able-bodied adults in their 30s and 40s who are simply not working. It was built for people who genuinely cannot take care of themselves; the elderly in nursing homes, children from low-income families, pregnant women, the severely disabled. That was the program. Then Obamacare blew the doors open. The Affordable Care Act created a brand new eligibility category: working-age, able-bodied adults earning up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level. Twenty million people were added to Medicaid under that expansion. The program that once protected the most vulnerable in America was converted, in part, into a no-questions-asked entitlement for people who could, in many cases, work their way out of it.
