Calls for new leadership emphasize the need to restore these institutions to their original missions, celebrating beauty and creativity. Figures like Justin Shubow, Mark Bauerlein, and Alaine Arnott are highlighted as potential leaders who could realign federal arts funding to foster a vibrant cultural landscape.

The Federalist: The Best Way For Trump To Stick It To WHO Is To Stick With It
President-elect Trump has threatened to withdraw the U.S. from the World Health Organization (WHO), citing its failures during the COVID-19 pandemic, including alleged collusion with China and flawed health policies. Critics argue that a rapid exit would diminish U.S. influence and miss a chance for reform.
Reforming WHO could lead to a more accountable organization focused on essential health issues, free from private interests. If reform is deemed impossible, a new entity could be established to better serve member states and their populations.
