					<description><![CDATA[Jew-hating antisemites have hurt the Democrats, politically, and they will hurt the Republicans, politically, as well if they are allowed into elite conservative circles.  If you want to find a Jew-hating antisemite on the left, go to an Ivy League college campus.

					<description><![CDATA[A deep-seated spiritual malaise and mental health crisis, not extreme or apocalyptic political rhetoric, explains the rash of political violence that has engulfed America. The horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk, a 31-year-old conservative political activist, husband and father of two infant children, has ignited an intense debate about who and&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Trump&#8217;s policy of appeasement enables Putin to shun American peace overtures and to continue Russia&#8217;s war on Ukraine. In his second term as president, now nearly seven months old, Donald Trump has adopted a policy of appeasement toward Russia and its President, Vladimir Putin. This is an undeniable statement of&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Shapiro&#8217;s Jewish and pro-Israel, and for a critical mass of Democrats today, that&#8217;s disqualifying. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro is one of the greatest political talents in America today, and he would be the strongest vice presidential nominee for Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party. Shapiro is a popular and successful&#8230;]]></description>

Democrats are hailing President Biden&#8217;s decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race as an heroic act of statesmanship befitting a man who puts&#8230;]]></description>

Eric Erickson is a serious and thoughtful conservative. So I was surprised to hear him voice strong criticism of a new Louisiana&#8230;]]></description>

At the 1992 Democratic National Convention, then-Georgia Governor Zell Miller derided President George H.W.

The media and most foreign policy analysts would have you believe that farsighted Joe Biden supports Ukraine, while myopic Congressional Republicans don&#8217;t; and that a lack&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[U.S. military leaders are projecting their experience in Iraq and Afghanistan onto Israel in Gaza. But these are dissimilar conflicts with fundamentally different objectives. What can Israel learn from the recent American wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Much less than U.S. military leaders seem to think. For example, the Chairman&#8230;]]></description>
