Peace talks in Shepherdstown a Clinton legacy play
Our View argues the Shepherdstown talks between Israel and Syria are likely more about President Clinton shaping a legacy than about real progress. It notes the Golan Heights, water rights, and security guarantees as deep hurdles, while US officials downplay quick agreement and finance it as a taxpaying legacy pursuit.

What in a Man's Castle Says OSHA and Big Brother
Cal Thomas argues that OSHA briefly claimed authority to regulate home offices, threatening ergonomics lighting ventilation and even home safety. He frames the move as political rather than safety driven, warning of a precedent that could intrude into private homes and curb independent enterprise. He notes Labor Secretary Alexis Herman withdrew the interpretation, cites Scalia on union concerns, and worries about Fourth Amendment and broader governmental overreach.
