The Federalist: How To Get Conservative Judges To Do Conservative Things
Republicans have struggled to ensure conservative judges consistently deliver conservative rulings, despite improvements through the Federalist Society and changes in judicial nomination processes. Key cases like Bostock v. Clayton County and FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine highlight the inconsistency of conservative justices, who often side with liberal interpretations.
The originalist philosophy, while dominant, has not effectively resolved ambiguous legal cases, leading to a reliance on liberal principles. Critics argue that a return to a classical legal tradition, which incorporates customary law and moral reasoning, may offer a more effective judicial framework. However, modern American society's diversity complicates this shift, as conservative judges often default to liberal rights rhetoric.

The Federalist: Here’s How To Actually Reverse The Baby Bust
Birth rates in the U.S. and globally are declining, with the average American woman expected to have only 1.6 children, well below the 2.1 needed for population stability. Factors include cultural shifts, technological advancements, and public policies that inadvertently discourage family formation.
Policies promoting extended education and secular schooling contribute to delayed family formation, as individuals spend more time in school and less on starting families. Reforming these policies could potentially reverse the trend and boost fertility rates.
