The Post has written endless news and opinion pieces over the last 15 years projecting Europe's demise. It even questioned whether Europe had the ability to complete the adoption of the euro as a physical currency (largely flawless by most accounts).
Therefore, it is a newsworthy event that it allowed a piece in the Sunday Outlook section that reported on Europe's strengths. This is a bit like Pravda in the Soviet days printing a column on the merits of capitalism. The Post should be applauded for finally overcoming its ideological aversion to the European welfare state and allowing some difference of opinion on this issue.
A second Trump administration will cement a right-wing majority on the Supreme Court for a generation, and put our collective future in the hands of someone who will be virtually unchecked by our institutions.

We're committed to bringing you the latest news on how Trump's agenda will actually affect the American people, shining a light on the stories corporate media overlooks and keeping the public informed about how power really works in this country.
