OPINION | No, it’s not deja vu — the National Rifle Association just suffered another legal humiliation. Three months after a New York jury found NRA executives guilty of treating its coffers like their personal piggybank, the organization just settled a similar case in Washington, D.C. This time, DC’s attorney general was suing the NRA for violating nonprofit law by using its charitable foundation as a slush fund to shore up the parent organization’s dwindling finances.

OPINION | Something quite remarkable happened during Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida’s visit to Washington last week. It was not the wide-ranging bilateral agreements, though there was plenty to applaud for an alliance that now appears to be truly global in nature. Nor was it the fact that Kishida gave an address to a joint session of Congress. It was not even the trilateral summit that included Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., which highlighted the alignment among American allies against Chinese aggression.
