    The Emperor’s Old Age: Biden and the Deep State Con1

    In Hans Christian Andersen’s classic folktale “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” a vain monarch pays two con artists to make an expensive suit of clothes that cannot be seen by fools.

    As an Asian American, I Say DEI Must Go4

    As someone who was involuntarily used as a poster child for Asian American and Pacific Islander month by my university, yet listened to some classmates rant that Asian Americans “would be nowhere without black people,” take it from me: Diversity, equity, and inclusion offices make racism worse, not better.
