I was amazed to see the slew of commentary that followed the July 13, 2024, Trump event in Bethel, PA, and the canceling of Biden’s campaign. It worries me that people are talking rapturously about an imminent “next stage of American history” as if it will come about by “forces”. Or by “players.” Or maybe … Read more

American elections should be decided by American voters. That is why the U.S. House of Representatives recently passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, legislation that defends that basic principle by requiring proof of citizenship to vote.
