Foster (Center bias), based on his new book, Moderates of the World, Unite! Read the first post in the series.  As you cast your mind back over the past two years of political news—the rallies, the debates, the polls, the denunciations, the controversies—does it seem to you that it was valuable? It was often titillating, to be sure. Though I’m not sure I learned anything of...

This piece is part of a biweekly series written by David A. Foster (Center bias), based on his new book, Moderates of the World, Unite!  It has become difficult to imagine an America that is not dominated by today’s roaring spectacle. Where, instead, public discourse is sober, problem-focused, and restrained. Where the tide is turned against increasing national polarization. I’ve come to the conclusion that this world is more within reach than anyone realizes. Yes, even with our...

Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), now a Republican....

Since winning the election, President-elect Donald Trump has named several key members who will serve in cabinet positions or other various roles in his incoming administration. Certain roles, like attorney general or secretary of defense, will have to be voted on by the Senate, but other roles like “border czar” or leading the “Department of Government Efficiency” won’t need such ratification.

Donald Trump was projected to become the 47th President of the United States early Wednesday morning, gaining 295 electoral votes and winning the popular vote as of the latest polling results. The President-elect managed to win over states that carried Biden in the 2020 election, such as Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, all of which were once referred to as “the blue wall.” He was the first Republican to win the popular vote since 2004. The roads for both parties this election cycle...

Our balanced team of people on the right, left, and center reacted to the results of the 2024 presidential election. Here’s what they had to say, beginning with our three co-founders.    John Gable, cofounder and CEO (Lean Right bias) On election night, I continually switched between Fox and CNN.
