Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

Hey, don't laugh -- we could do it (and another President reportedly thought about it too). So yes, we discuss that, a troubled Congressional trip to the Holy Land, the great Kevin Williamson on his new book The Smallest Minority: Independent Thinking in an Age of Mob Politics, and the WSJ's Bill McGurn on the turmoil in Hong Kong (he knows the city well -- he lived for ten years. Also, how did the name Ricochet come to land upon this blessed website? You'll have to tune in for the answer to that one.

    Greenland? I wonder how long before China and Russia try to annex or Crimea-ize parts of Antarctica...
