By deploying federal forces in major cities across the country these past few months, President Trump has caused much chattering in the news media. It is practically unprecedented to anyone who isn’t a baby-boomer for the federal government to actually do something about urban crime. So aside from the obvious significance of such a move, the sheer audacity of Trump’s actions has become news as well. (more…)

In biology, convergent evolution explains how different species can develop genetic traits with similar form or function, yet be evolutionarily quite distinct.

Meaningful dialogue across an ideological divide can be quite difficult. It’s enough of a challenge with mainstream conservatives, who just need a helpful nudge out of the kiddie pool, but often are hung up on ineffectual positions such as civic nationalism, neocon military adventures, misplaced egalitarianism, and libertarian economism.

The most processed, stage-managed, and synthetic candidate in political history may just be the Frankensteinian perfection that America’s machine politics deserve.
