Dear Dr. Linda, Our daughter is in eighth grade. She's smart, a great soccer player, a member of the swimming team, a skilled dancer, and a talented musician. We're so proud of her. But her grades are always mediocre. It's the tests that are... more
The Nov. 4 election was a reminder of just how fragile public trust can be when basic systems fail. The Westchester County Board of Elections’ handling of results was nothing short of unacceptable. By failing to include the early-voting tallies... more
It was only a matter of time before the left’s obsession with identity politics found its mirror on the right—reflecting the same poison in a different bottle. For years, the left’s narrow focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion has treated... more
