In the new enlargement approach, the Fundamentals cluster is the alpha and omega: it opens first, closes last, and effectively determines how fast everything else can move. This cluster covers functioning democratic institutions, rule of law, and fundamental rights – and many decent people have already expressed their opinions on what is going on in Ukraine in that context. Therefore, I suggest digging straight into the economic criteria, which rest on two questions: does Ukraine have a functioning market economyand can it cope with competitive pressure inside the EU? These two benchmarks make up the economic side of the Copenhagen…

A federal appeals court upheld a lower court’s decision to disqualify Alina Habba as the U.S. Attorney for New Jersey. Habba previously served as President Donald Trump’s personal attorney and 2024 presidential campaign advisor. The current Trump administration appointed Habba to the U.S. Attorney role but used unusual avenues to do so, raising questions about whether Habba was lawfully in that position. In July, two people Habba prosecuted for drug trafficking and firearm charges filed a motion to dismiss their indictments, arguing that Habba’s appointment was unlawful. While the indictments weren’t dismissed, Judge Matthew W. Brann, chief judge of the…

Moral indignation has been thick in the air on Capitol Hill this week from both Democrats and Republicans following the revelation that the U.S. military in early September conducted a secondary missile strike on survivors of an earlier U.S. attack on an alleged drug-smuggling boat in the Caribbean Sea. In the Sept. 2 incident, which occurred as part of U.S. President Donald Trump’s divisive campaign of lethal airstrikes on suspected drug traffickers in waters near Venezuela, a follow-on strike killed two survivors who were clinging to the wreckage of an alleged drug-smuggling boat after an initial strike.

A recent post argued that housing affordability is not so bad as it might appear when home prices are adjusted for all relevant factors, such as size, quality, and household income growth. While houses have become more expensive in dollars, they are also significantly bigger and nicer, and the average household has significantly more income. We acknowledge, however, that there is a housing affordability problem, particularly for working- and middle-class people in certain metro areas. Bankrate found that the household income needed to afford a median-priced American home rose by 50% just since 2020, to $117,000. The economics of housing…
