SEOUL, South Korea — A South Korean legislative push to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol over his short-lived imposition of martial law fell through on Saturday after most lawmakers from his conservative governing party boycotted the vote.

Something is missing. Three-point shooting is the easy answer. The Nuggets are 2-15 when they make fewer than seven 3s, which most teams fall out of bed and convert in the current NBA. They don’t shoot enough 3s, they don’t make enough 3s, and they don’t defend players shooting 3s. Nikola Jokic is having a season that conjures images of Wilt Chamberlain, inching him into the conversation of a top-10 all-time player, and the Nuggets are flirting with a .500 record.

Sean Payton didn’t listen to the critics in 2006 when he inherited a Saints team that went 3-13 the previous year and then led them to an NFC title game. Nearly two decades later, Payton still doesn’t entertain the outside noise. Entering his second season as Denver’s head coach, Payton knew the challenge that awaited him.

The U. S. is blessed with the world’s most capable military and a network of allies and partners unmatched by any nation. It is an advantage we accumulated over generations.
