Iran’s “Supreme Leader,” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has made his first public appearance since Iran’s defeat in the 12-Day War. Khamenei spent the entirety of the war, and its aftermath until now, hiding in a security bunker, although he released a recorded public statement on June 26.

Trump’s Labor Department has since announced that the rule has been suspended. Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach had led 17 states in suing the Biden…

Berlin’s energetic, ambitious, popular, and resolutely narrow-minded minister of defense Boris Pistorius has just made some high-level personnel moves. By far the single most politically significant of Pistorius’ new appointments is that of Major-General…
