It’s always exhilarating (and slightly terrifying) every four years when America finds itself in the throes of another presidential election. 2020 is shaping up to be one of the most heated and hard-fought presidential battles in recent memory.

Nathan Harman, Contributor
February 8, 2020
After three and a half frustrating years, it feels like a breath of fresh air to see Brexit finally happen. No, I am not a British citizen, but I must admit that reading about Brexit day in and day out and monitoring its impact on markets made me feel increasingly obnoxious. As a staunch supporter of...
Joe Biden: Savior or Liability?
Nathan Harman, Contributor
January 1, 2020
Is Joe Biden okay? After a strong start in the polls, American voters are seeing a different side of the former Vice President and veteran senator: a frail, forgetful side befitting a man of his age. The 77-year-old is currently the overall frontrunner of the entire Democratic field, but is lagging behind...

November 21, 2019
A few weeks ago, when I was participating in the Bipartisan Issues Group’s ideology debate, the topic of how the government should intervene in healthcare came up.

Censorship is a powerful thing. We hear about it in statist nations like China and Russia. We fret about it on social media when topics of government regulation come up. We read about it in our history books when studying nations like Nazi Germany and the U.S.S.R. And now, we’ve seen it yet agai...

Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are on the rise again. On September 14, two drones struck Saudi-run oil processing facilities in Khurais and Abqaiq, both located on the eastern side of the country.

A personal statement on the need to rename the union
Nathan Harman, Contributor
September 17, 2019
Facts can be evil. If evil facts are public and notable, then they are even more evil. Historical anti-Semitism on our campus has no right to be known privately.
