    Can AI and Drones Replace Soldiers and Jets?

    By Aaron Kaplowitz - July 4, 2025

    Principles of Government · August 31, 2025 ·

    By Aaron Kaplowitz – Weeks later, Israel’s strike on Iranian nuclear facilities offered a sharper, more enduring lesson: The future of warfare isn’t about drones replacing jets—it’s about integration. While Ukraine revealed how smart, agile tactics can disrupt an adversary, Israel put on a masterclass in modern warfare by blending conventional and new battlefield technologies. Read More

    Christian Brose on the Coming Revolution in Military Tech

    By Kate B. Odell - July 18, 2025

    Principles of Government · August 31, 2025 ·

    By Kate B. Odell – Is America prepared for the new way of war? “At every level, I think, our conception of military power, and the industrial base that we’ve been optimizing to build it, is just systemically wrong,” says Christian Brose, …

    Anduril’s inexpensive cruise missiles, unmanned wingmen for fighter jets, and other technology could be crucial to U.S. victory in a future conflict…

    America needs military power that is “mass-producible, that is adaptable, that is scalable and that is fundamentally replaceable… 

    The real U.S. defense challenge is injecting into the defense base “more of the American capitalist system at its best—more competition, more disruption, more innovation.”

    …“We created an entire category of technology that didn’t even exist, dozens and dozens of companies that are funded with billions of dollars of private capital . . . trying to build military systems and defense capability.” Read More

    The U.S. Is Losing the Ability to Deter War With China AA

    By Seth G. Jones - Nov. 26, 2024

    Copyright ©2024 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8

    Principles of Government · September 18, 2025 ·

    By Seth G. Jones – America is rapidly losing the ability to deter China in the Taiwan Strait and elsewhere due to a weak defense industrial base.

    Mitch McConnell: Liberal Bureaucrats Threaten Democracy

    By Mitch McConnell - June 11, 2024

    Copyright ©2024 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8

    Principles of Government · August 30, 2024 ·

    By Mitch McConnell – The Constitution vests each branch of the federal government with an exclusive power, responsive to the people in elections. In each branch, liberals seek to remove that power from democratic accountability and vest it in unelected bureaucrats.  Read More

    The Scholar Who Saw Zohran Mamdani Coming in 2003

    Principles of Government · August 30, 2025 ·

    Mr. Kors lamented that socialism had yet to be held accountable for the scale of its crimes: “No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents and more orphans than socialism with power.” The failure to acknowledge and come to terms with this reality in the West, he believed, eventually would allow socialism to resuscitate itself, even with millions of skeletons hiding in plain view.
