“Diversity for Others”
Syrian refugees are being resettled in Virginia. And no, not in Fairfax, Loudoun or Arlington—some of the wealthiest counties in our nation.

A Bad Moon Rising
Pat Buchanan fires a laser-like shot across the bow of the Clinton coronation train. “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable,” said John F. Kennedy.

The other candidate is “volatile, ill-informed, immature, and self-absorbed.” Thomas Sowell continues with his explanation on why […]
China’s “Permanent Conflict” Strategy
J. Michael, writing at The National Interest: The Chinese leadership is well aware that waging war on two fronts can be disastrous for even the most battle-hardened militaries.

Clinton’s Foreign Policy Judgment “Reliably Bad”
Daniel Larison, writing at The American Conservative explains to readers that Hillary Clinton projects to be a “very hawkish president.” Presidents with less hawkish records than Clinton have ended up launching new wars and intervening in foreign conflicts far more often than their campaign rhetoric would have suggested.
