Atlantic magazine staff writer Robert F. Worth should be given credit for his in-depth reporting on the scene from the island of the economic devastation in Cuba as the result of decades of Communist oppression and mismanagement as you can see in his Monday story, "The Collapse of Cuba." In fact his reporting appears to be quite truthful to the extent he revealed a very painful truth about himself. Namely that he allows his TDS to take hold of him to the extent as to appear utterly ridiculous.He could have easily ignored (or misreported) the fact that during the entire...

Hochul ranked No. 50 in the Cato Institute’s 2026 “Freedom in the 50 States” list, scoring an “F” and falling behind the governors from Hawaii, California, Rhode Island and Massachusetts.
