There, rising above the hiss of the pressurized air, as the video monitors snapped to the image of an engorged sun bursting from be…

Our Failure To Understand Ferguson: A Cognitive Explanation

By Andrew Aghapour

…alled with frantic instructions: “You must make this connection. Bribe two Delta passengers! Pay them each $500 for their seat!” A Delta representative sincerely apologized: they couldn’t facilitate bribery. We would have to buy new, full-price tickets to Iran. On the phone with JetBlue’s customer service line that night, my righteous fury dissipated quickly. Could JetBlue really be to blame for bad weather, or a mechanical problem, or whatever sy…

The Key to Understanding the Federalist Society Isn’t Originalism — It’s This 800-Year Old Tradition

By Peter Schwartz

…notions of “human dignity” and “human flourishing,” Catholic natural law—an 800-year-old tradition dating back to Thomas Aquinas—is a lens that offers utter clarity to conservative Catholic jurists, activists, policymakers, and scholars as they observe, describe, and engage the world.

Reactions to Biden’s Korean-American Secret Service Agent Expose Christian Nationalism’s Anti-Asian Side

By Lucas Kwong

…647232 Almost immediately, racist conspiracy theories began misidentifying Agent David Cho as Biden’s “CCP handler.” Tellingly, the accounts that accused Cho vocalized support for outspoken evangelical Mike Pompeo’s presidential bid in 2024, retweeted pro-Trump pastor Greg Locke, or coupled self-descriptions like “Catholic American” with warnings for immigrants to “assimilate and be productive” in their bios. Anti-Chinese mania is now central to C…

Blame Series Bonus: Why We Want That Dish For Free, an Uncut Interview with Bertram Malle

By Andrew Aghapour

…an incredibly different kind of thing (I’m not even sure I’d want to say “agent,” though some of them are agents) to deal with. In a sense, all we can do is understand institutions like an agent, unless we study sociology for 20 years and political science on top of that, and try to get a handle on how institutions actually work as causal structures in the world. You can’t expect that of ordinary people. I think we can improve that knowledge, eve…

For nine months leading up to the rally, organizers had been meeting people at the airport and in the community, coaxing them to take on an…
