Keep Politics Out of the Race for the Coronavirus Vaccine
If going into November, it seems clear that the Trump administration has fast-tracked a drug that can in short order deliver us from the devastation of the lockdowns, giving us our lives and our children’s educations back, it will massively help the president at the ballot box. And it should. These are the kinds of accomplishments upon which we judge presidents.
Kamala Is an Underwhelming VP Pick
Would Harris have gotten the spot if men had been considered and acceptable? Merely to ask is to cast doubt on her. The selection was even more tilted because it increasingly became clear that the veep candidate had to be not only a woman, but also black.

Peddling the Idea that “All White People Are Racist” for Profit
The wholesale intellectual fraud that is “white fragility” has so infested our culture that Oprah Winfrey, the world’s first female black billionaire, is criticizing America as hopelessly and intractably racist.

Can Any Liberal City Resist the Spread of Portland’s Disease?
Portland has seen 60 straight nights of violent unrest, and now it’s starting to spread: Saturday was a national night of “solidarity,” with demonstrations in multiple cities in support of the Portland goons.

It’s Not Fascism to Protect Federal Property from Riots and Revolutionaries
There’s no doubt that President Trump wants to use this civil decay in blue-governed Portland as a political weapon in his re-election effort. But could any president ignore seven weeks of street-level chaos in a city of 650,000, the country’s 26th largest?

Let NYC Residents Vote on Teddy Roosevelt Statue
The board’s assumption is that vast swaths of New Yorkers feel offended, even threatened, by the statue. But do we know if that’s, in fact, true? While the statue’s supposedly problematic nature has been discussed for some time, it has never been some enormous point of contention in the Big Apple.
