President Biden faces a problem without a solution. No interview or speech can convince a skeptical public that he is still fit for the presidency. It will take years for perceptions to solidify. In June 2020, 36% of voters said Biden was too old to run for office. By 2024, that number will nearly double. In a Times/Siena poll conducted in February, 73% said Biden was “too old to be a good president.” In an April poll, 69% said the same thing. In a June poll, it was 70%, and after the debate, it was 74%.The debate did not change…

I was genuinely troubled when I read the majority opinion in Trump v. United States on Monday, which held that the President enjoys absolute immunity for official acts within his “definitive and exclusive” constitutional powers, and presumed immunity for all other official acts. The Supreme Court’s opinion is difficult to decipher and is not originalist in many important respects. For the second time this term, the Supreme Court has handed down a decision that is truly difficult to square with the letter of the Constitution, following Trump v. Anderson, which blocked efforts to remove Donald Trump from the ballot under…

Ruth Yitzhaki, a research scientist at Oxford University, piqued public curiosity in the 1990s when she published evidence linking Alzheimer’s to the herpes virus, a nasty virus that spreads through oral or genital contact and often causes painful infections. For years, strong proponents of the amyloid hypothesis ignored or dismissed the infection hypothesis of Alzheimer’s, effectively rendering it invisible, Dr. Yitzhaki said indignantly. Research has shown that the virus can lurk undetected in organs, including the brain, for years and cause symptoms different from the original infection.But her idea may finally be gaining acceptance. Nearly 5,000 papers have been written…

In late May, JPMorgan’s Marko Kolanovic argued that the S&P 500 was significantly overvalued, defending his stubbornly negative stance on U.S. stocks and predicting that the large-cap index would fall 24% from then-levels to 4,200 by the end of the year. At that point, Kolanovic was the last bear market strategist at a major Wall Street bank, and other strategists, even some previously pessimistic, were predicting further gains by the end of the year, believing the incredible recovery that began in early 2023 would continue. Kolanovic was wrong when he predicted another strong stock market in 2022, and the market…

Third culture kids (TCKs) growing up as entrepreneurs face challenges, but they are culturally … [+] It brings benefits to the workplace.Getty TCK (short for Third Culture Kids) is a term that has been talked about quite a bit in the mass media. TCKs are second generation immigrants who grew up in a culture different from their parents and their country of nationality (such as children of military, diplomat, or missionary families, or those whose families relocated overseas on work placements).
