When most Americans think of Philadelphia — although probably fewer today than ever before, given the low level of history education in American schools — they probably think of the founding of the United States, the Liberty Bell and the city’s nickname, the City of Brotherly Love.

It’s still on, at least for now — and at least for public consumption. As negotiations continue on trade with China, Beijing announced a new set of tariffs that will take effect when escalated US tariffs do the same. If this is a game of chicken, though, one side has a much bigger car: The

(Jonathan Ernst/Reuters) In a recent interview with the Washington Post, retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, whose memoir is being released tomorrow, shows why the conflict over the kind of judge a president appoints is so important.
