My Latest: Donald Trump didn't reveal evidence of voter fraud on Thursday night. Instead, his speech was the culmination of a crisis he and Republicans manufactured as an excuse to take over elections. newsletters.democracydocket.com/trump-didnt-...

The Strait of Hormuz was opened every single day of the eight years of the Obama administration. And we didn't have to bomb anyone to achieve that goal. Iran also never acquired a nuclear weapon in those 8 Obama years. And we didn't have to bomb anyone to achieve that goal.

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet — and watching to see who refuses to wear them. It's Solzhenitsyn's Stalin story come to life: the first person to stop applauding ended up in the gulag. The lesson then, as now — never be the first to stop clapping.
