When we learned this week that the inflation rate in Venezuela hit a milestone when it passed ten million percent (!) you might have thought things had gotten as bad as they could for Nicolas Maduro. Not so, my friends. The President has unleashed another round of orders freezing virtually all remaining assets of the
Month: August 2019
“Fake news!” shouts the president. His supporters cheer. That drives my colleagues into a frenzy of self-absorbed handwringing: “Threats to press freedom … press persecution!” It’s silly. American reporters are hardly less safe because of President Donald Trump’s hyperbole. (Trump is reckless when he uses the term in other countries. Authoritarians in Russia, China, the

Now we will finally get an answer to this vexing political question — is Jerry Brown wiser than Gavin Newsom? The state of California will now spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to defend the law Newsom signed after Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and the GOP sued the state today. At issue is whether California
It was interesting to note a comment made by Senator Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) during last week’s Democratic presidential debate. Regarding health care policy Harris said, “For a Democrat to be running for president with a plan that does not cover everyone, I think is without excuse.” Harris, obviously, places coverage as the top policy goal
In his post-Dayton/El Paso speech yesterday, Donald Trump urged Congress to find some bipartisan ground in dealing with mass shootings. Mitch McConnell granted Trump his wish, or at least provided a start to the process yesterday. A new working group in the Senate Republican caucus will “brainstorm” on potential actions to curb and prevent such
GARY, Indiana — If you want to know the true state of a city, drive through all of it, not just the pretty parts where politicians line the streets with bike lanes and lavish developers who have deals to build by stadiums and riverfronts.

Will this new arms race end before it begins? Faced with the prospect of the US catching up to both Russia and China in land-based intermediate missile systems, Vladimir Putin called for new arms-limitation talks. After repeatedly abrogating the now-defunct INF treaty, the Russian strongman now wants to avoid “chaos”: “If Russia obtains reliable information
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, never said there were “fine” Nazis or Ku Klux Klansmen. This is one of the two great lies of our time — the other being that all Trump supporters are racists — and perhaps in all of American history. I cannot think of a lie of such

Let it be known that the flogging of dead horses will remain in season until, oh … Christmas. Earlier this morning, House Judiciary chair Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) told MSNBC’s Morning Joe panel that impeachment is still very much on the table. By “late in the fall,” Nadler promises, House Democrats will have enough information to vote
It’s notoriously difficult to perform experiments on humans, especially on large groups of humans, but every so often something happens that may not be a perfect control, but still looks awfully close. This weekend was one of those opportunities when there were two mass shootings in as many days. One was in El Paso and

“We vow to act with urgent resolve,” Donald Trump announced, with Vice President Mike Pence at his side, to combat a rising scourge of violence and shootings.

In the New York City public schools, only about two-thirds of K-12 students graduate with a high-school diploma. Of that two-thirds, a self-selected group then attends the City College of New York.

The new president of The Heartland Institute, Frank Lasee, was not exaggerating when he described the 13th International Conference on Climate Change (ICCC13) as “the most important climate change and energy event of the year.” Speaking about the July 25 conference held at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., Lasee explained, “ICCC13 demonstrated that the Climate Delusion is not

Was the drawdown leak from late in the week just an appetizer? A plan percolating in the Trump administration to reduce troop levels in Afghanistan is only the first step in Donald Trump’s plans for the war, according to NBC News. Not only does Trump want to end the war before the election, but he wanted
I have concluded this presidential campaign is going to be a danger to my dental health. Not mental — that bus left the station — but dental. Watching people react to Trump’s tweets is causing me to grind my teeth. One tweet that damaged my dentine, of course, is that tweet about Elijah Cummings’ district
Everyone is fixated on the crowded Democratic primary field these days and watching every new poll for signs of some sort of movement. (That’s been a largely disappointing endeavor for those who prefer someone other than Joe Biden.) But what about the GOP primary? The odds of the nominee being someone other than President Trump
After the CNN debates earlier this week, many were shocked to see 2020 Democrats go after Joe Biden by trashing the Obama-Biden years. Biden himself said that while he expected to be attacked, “I was a little surprised how much the incoming was about Barack.” He added, “I hope the next debate we can talk

Conspiracy theories may get a lot of traction on social media, but they don’t fare nearly as well in federal court.

With Donald Trump’s choice for Dan Coats’ replacement as director of national intelligence getting pushback, is the White House looking to pick a parallel fight?

I had an engineering professor in college who once horrified an entire class with a single word. A student asked him if he believed women and men were equal. “No,” he replied. Eyes widened.
