Myrtle Beach, SC Correspondent — This coast puts families on those aircraft and I don't need a romance about either the firm or the agency. A door plug leaving a fuselage and a production system that couldn't say where the bolts went is first a culture file. Self-certification works when the firm fears the aircraft … Continue reading Has Boeing’s quality and safety crisis shown that self-certification in commercial aviation needs a statutory overhaul, or that the failure is firm culture rather than the FAA model?

How should voters weigh campus encampments and university discipline this spring when judging federal research funding and Title VI enforcement?
Gastonia, NC Correspondent — Weigh them as a management file and a civil-rights file rather than as a foreign-policy seminar with tents. Federal research money isn't a birthright for a campus that can't keep a library open or a Jewish student walking to class unimpeded. If a school ran one rule for a climate sit-in … Continue reading How should voters weigh campus encampments and university discipline this spring when judging federal research funding and Title VI enforcement?
How should voters weigh campus encampments and university discipline this spring when judging federal research funding and Title VI enforcement?
Myrtle Beach, SC Correspondent — A pipe owned by an adversary's legal system isn't a magazine with a catchy song. The predicate is what makes it legitimate: an application whose algorithm and data can be directed under a statute we don't control, in a country that already uses platforms as instruments. The precedent risk is … Continue reading How should voters weigh campus encampments and university discipline this spring when judging federal research funding and Title VI enforcement?
Is the enacted TikTok divestiture law a legitimate national-security measure, or a precedent for political control of any disfavored platform?

Should the Washington NATO summit next week lock in a long-term Ukraine funding and production schedule, or mark the start of a narrower U.S. role?
Gastonia, NC Correspondent — A summit that locks a tab is a summit that skipped the sentence about whose factory runs at night. Long-term schedules are adulthood if European line items are the ones that grow and American high-end stays the scarce part. They're a habit if the schedule is another way to write American … Continue reading Should the Washington NATO summit next week lock in a long-term Ukraine funding and production schedule, or mark the start of a narrower U.S. role?
Does a campaign conducted while one candidate is a convicted felon under state law create a legitimacy problem for whoever wins, or is that a category the Constitution already answered?
Myrtle Beach, SC Correspondent — The Constitution answered the category. It lists age, residency, natural-born citizenship, and a small number of disqualifications that Congress and the Fourteenth Amendment actually wrote. A state conviction isn't on the list, and the historical precedent is direct. Eugene Debs ran for president from a federal penitentiary in 1920 and … Continue reading Does a campaign conducted while one candidate is a convicted felon under state law create a legitimacy problem for whoever wins, or is that a category the Constitution already answered?
After the first presidential debate, should party mechanisms have a formal capacity test for nominees, or would that process be captured by the same insiders the primaries were meant to discipline?
Gastonia, NC Correspondent — The country watched a fitness question answered on live television. That doesn't mean I want a committee with a stethoscope and a donor list. Primaries were supposed to be the capacity test voters run. What we saw last week was a party that spent a year insisting the question was a … Continue reading After the first presidential debate, should party mechanisms have a formal capacity test for nominees, or would that process be captured by the same insiders the primaries were meant to discipline?

Should Ukraine receive cluster munitions and long-range systems sufficient to change the map this year, or would that aid widen the war without a defined political settlement?
Myrtle Beach, SC Correspondent — A weapon isn't a theory of enough. I won't moralize about cluster munitions as though the artillery already levelling blocks were a gentleman's tool. The question is whether a specific munition changes a line this year or only extends the burn while everyone keeps skipping the settlement paragraph. If a … Continue reading Should Ukraine receive cluster munitions and long-range systems sufficient to change the map this year, or would that aid widen the war without a defined political settlement?
Are Canadian wildfire-smoke events a reason to change cross-border air-quality and forest-management practice, or a weather story being asked to carry a larger climate statute?
Gastonia, NC Correspondent — Smoke in the lungs is a practice problem before it's a treaty problem. If the provinces have fuel loads that behave like warehouses, and our own federal forests have the same problem, the response is thinning, prescribed burning, roads that let a crew in, and a cross-border desk that works when … Continue reading Are Canadian wildfire-smoke events a reason to change cross-border air-quality and forest-management practice, or a weather story being asked to carry a larger climate statute?
