The fatal beating, lynching, and burning of Bangladeshi Hindu Dipu Chandra Das, followed days later by the mob killing of fellow Hindu Amrit Mondal, was not spontaneous violence. It was a failure of the state: clear, deliberate, and lethal. Dipu was a 25-year-old garment worker, a husband, a father, and...

Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona offered up a lot of words Tuesday when questioned whether soldiers should have disobeyed President Donald Trump's orders to apprehend Nicolás Maduro.

She never had a chance. Admittedly, one struggles to muster empathy for those who wish pain on us and would inflict it if they could. But in this case, we may pity the villain while still shaming her and doing everything possible to defeat her. According to the U.K.'s Daily...

The rest of the world is learning again what Americans found out years ago: When Donald Trump moves, he moves fast. Just as the onetime celebrity real estate magnate and reality TV impresario has remade the history of American politics in the short decade since he rode down the escalator...

It probably wasn't the effect liberals were hoping for.

As odd as it is to write this out, I miss honest-to-goodness liberals. Before you close this story in disgust, bear with me. True, actual liberals are the ones who used to champion, "I disagree with what you have to say, but will defend to the death your right to...

One of the most frequent criticisms lobbied against professional sports teams is that they'll often ignore -- or at least be incredibly soft on -- star players who get in trouble. If the player can produce enough, they're seemingly worth the headache. That's a criticism that has hounded the Kansas...

Minnesota has gone from the Land of 10,000 Lakes to the Land of 10,000 scams. With bad news rising on a near-daily basis -- including Tuesday's fatal shooting after a woman apparently tried to hit Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents with her car -- the state that gave America the...
