New in PN: A vote away from undoing the civil war "The only role for a functional SCOTUS would have been to deny a cert request by saying, 'Did the lower court stutter?' Instead, we came within one vote of letting the worst people in the country run roughshod over one of America's sacred compacts."

Don’t get caught up in the Washington horse race reporting on Republican congressman Thomas Massie losing his primary to a Trump-backed challenger in Kentucky. Massie lost because he worked with Democrats and Republicans to force Trump to release the Epstein Files. That’s why Trump wanted him gone.

Two months after it passed the Senate by a huge margin, Trump endorses the housing bill. He name-checks Tim Scott but doesn’t mention the bill’s other author, Elizabeth Warren. Bill has hit turbulence in the House, but if Trump wants it Mike Johnson will likely give it a vote.
