Olympics return to gender sanity, NY dragging down US AI and other commentary
Sports desk: Olympics Return to Gender Sanity
“The International Olympic Committee finally did what so many of us have been demanding for years: it drew a clear, unambiguous line in the sand to protect women’s sports,” cheers Riley Gaines at Fox News. The IOC’s “new eligibility policy that limits competition in the female category at the Olympics, Youth Olympics and all IOC-sanctioned events to females only.” It rejects the lie “that a man who identifies as a woman somehow becomes our physical equal simply by declaring it.” Enforcement centers on “a simple cheek swab” — “far less invasive” than “the random drug tests” athletes “submit to constantly. Credit the “real leadership and pressure” of “President Trump’s 2025 executive order” that targeted “organizations allowing males in female categories.” That “protected not just our athletes but the global standard for women’s sport.”
Tech beat: NY Dragging Down US AI
“The United States is engaged in a high-stakes, winner-take-all technological cold war with China,” warn Logan Kolas & Adam D. Thierer at City Journal. Yet New York “is pushing “innovation-killing regulation, spinning up red tape and mandating bureaucracy” for the industry. State lawmakers have introduced 180 AI-related bills just this year, a push that will “accelerate” business exodus, and “consumers will suffer.” And because of “negative spillovers, the damage will extend beyond New York.” Sen. Chuck Schumer recognized “the dangers” last year when he described China’s “powerful DeepSeek AI model as ‘AI’s Sputnik moment for America.’ It was a ‘wakeup call that Congress desperately needs’ to get serious about the AI race.” He’s right: America can’t “let New York sabotage both itself and the nation’s innovators.”
Eye on Europe: Look Where Jews Feel Safe
It is now a “mundane fact” that Jews in Eastern Europe “feel safer” than Jews in Western Europe, observes Commentary’s Seth Mandel; post-Oct. 7, “Western Europe’s once-earned sense of democratic superiority is fading” as its leaders “could not possibly care less what their Jews have to say or how the governments’ rhetoric and policies make Jews unsafe”; witness UK PM Keir Starmer’s bland response to the bombing of Jewish ambulances. Eastern European nations may be “much more readily” termed “authoritarian,” but that means little to English Jews who are “are arrested for literally showing up in public wearing identifiably Jewish items because it is considered provocative” to Hamas supporters. Western Europe’s “democratic backsliding” in “driven” by antisemitism.

Conservative: Pols’ Compassion Deficit
“Our political class, apparently, has lost all sense of what’s important in moments like these,” roars the Wall Street Journal’s William McGurn after the murder of Loyola University freshman Sheridan Gorman at the alleged hands of an illegal immigrant, followed by politicians’ “ill-conceived statements about who’s to blame.” “Comforting the afflicted, supporting communities and individuals, all that comes later — or not at all,” as Gov. JB Pritzker (D-Ill.) pointed to “a failure of the president.” Alderwoman Maria Hadden “apologized for suggesting the victim caused her own death” but claims the media misconstrued “her words.” “The official response to such a tragedy will always seem to fall short, but it doesn’t need to make things worse.”
ICE patrol: Dems Favor Illegals over Citizens
“Across the country,” Democrats “continue to pass unpopular legislation to prevent immigration law enforcement,” notes the Washington Examiner editorial board. “These policies are popular among activists and the Democratic base,” but the “general public disagrees.” Polling across the spectrum “shows voters trust Republicans more on immigration than they trust Democrats.” Jose Medina, the alleged killer of Sheridan Gorman, “in a sane world” would have been deported after a shoplifting arrest, “but there is nothing sane about Chicago’s immigration policies.” Dems give their legislation anodyne names like “Immigrant Safety Act,” but don’t seem to care if citizens “will be protected from illegal immigrants.” As “Democrats refuse to help enforce immigration laws,” they disregard the “safety of citizens.”
