Mexico and Cartels — Why It Matters to America’s Security, Economy & Public Health Mexican cartels aren’t just a problem south of the border — they are a strategic threat that reaches deep into the United States’ social fabric, public health, and national security. These transnational criminal groups dominate the trafficking of fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine, and other dangerous drugs into the U.S., fueling a deadly opioid crisis and undermining community safety from coast to coast. Cartel networks also leverage American demand, U.S.–sourced firearms, and sophisticated smuggling routes to expand their reach, corrupt institutions, and weaken the rule of law on both sides of the border, making cartel violence a matter that…Open

America has seen a spate of political assassination. What does it mean, and how should we respond? You might have missed the headline, but there’s been another assassination attempt against President Trump. This time, a deranged 21-year-old man named Austin Martin tried to break into Mar-a-Lago with a shotgun and a gas canister. The Secret Service killed him. The story would have dominated the headlines during any other period in American history, but in this instance, it seems to have passed through the discourse without much of a blip. Are we becoming desensitized to assassination culture, and if so, where does that leave us? What does the gradual normalization of conspiracy-driven violence mean for the future? The evidence suggests…Open

He seeks future peace through present strength. Ever since Iran’s “Islamic Revolution” succeeded in erecting a theocratic regime whose leaders condemn America as the “Great Satan,” call for “death to America,” and kill American soldiers, a question has hung in the air: How many years would the United States tolerate an Islamic dictatorship that murders American citizens, threatens America’s economic interests, and annually celebrates having held fifty-two Americans hostage for four hundred and forty-four days by burning American flags? The answer might be forty-seven. As is his wont, President Trump appears to be grabbing the status quo by its ear and squeezing it as it squeals in pain. The theocratic police state…Open
