Lindsey Graham was all excited when Trump finally after a year and a half said he would sign his bill to impose crushing sanctions on Russia's energy exports. The only catch: Trump insisted that he have the ability to waive the sanctions. Which he just did.

I always have mixed feelings about these images. Yes, it's inspiring to see these college students committed to democracy, but the fact that they have to do anything remotely difficult to exercise their voting rights is enraging. Taking part in a democracy should be as easy as possible.

Instead of blowing up go-fast boats with crew members on board, U.S. forces are seizing and destroying large fishing vessels accused of providing drug traffickers with fuel to make their journeys toward the United States.

“Police & prosecutors provided no evidence of the alleged smuggling—no photos of excess fuel tanks, no text messages, no intelligence linking them to drug traffickers. A judge ruled their detention was illegal…Ecuadorian courts ruled, in case after case, that prosecutors failed to prove any crime.”
