Deep dives
Ukraine's Use of U.S. Weapons in Russian Territory
President Joe Biden granted Ukraine permission to launch limited attacks inside Russian territory, in response to pressure from NATO and Ukraine. The U.S. weapons provided can only be used defensively and within Russian borders, specifically to protect Kharkiv. Despite potential impact, experts suggest this change may not significantly alter the conflict dynamics.
Senator Tim Scott's Appeal to Black Voters
Senator Tim Scott initiated a multimillion-dollar effort targeting black voters for the 2024 election. The funding, totaling over $14 million, aims to shift black voting patterns towards Republicans, focusing on swing states like Pennsylvania and Michigan. Scott believes a Republican victory is achievable with a fraction of the black vote, highlighting dissatisfaction with Biden's approach to black voters.
Florida's Leading Role in School Choice
Florida stands out as a model for education freedom, directing significant funds towards school choice programs like vouchers and charter schools. This approach has led to a notable increase in homeschooling and charter school enrollment, with around 10% of students shifting from public schools. While praised for empowering parents, critics raise concerns about potential underfunding and oversight in alternative education options.
