MORELLE: Would you suggest that the January 6 pardons would cover activities or crimes potentially committed outside of that? BONDI: I don't know if you're referring to Joe Biden pardoning his son. MORELLE: No. I'm actually referring to January 6. BONDI: Do you mean the ones done by the autopen?

Attacking Iran fits with Trump’s desire to divert attention from his failures at home: his losses in the courts, his unpopular budget bill, millions of people protesting against his authoritarianism. When he feels humiliated, he gets reckless. Understand what's going on.

I'm not enjoying the reboot of the "Unprovoked War in the Middle East" reality TV show. It's just as pointless, but the actors are even stupider. And, frankly, I didn't think that would be possible.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result? Demagoguery and corruption.

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

Article 1 of the Constitution says tariffs should be levied by Congress. Congress made a mistake when they gave limited power over tariffs to the President. The power of the purse resides in Congress and it should stay in Congress.
