Those of us of a certain age will remember a cartoon called Beavis and Butthead that ran on MTV.

“Offensive operations,” George Washington once wrote, “often times is the surest, if not the only (in some cases) means of defence.” Count this among the few times that Donald Trump can claim similarity with the first president.

It’s an accurate generalization, and I’ve made it myself. But it seems
One might be tempted to say that Rep. Eric Swalwell went nuclear on Attorney General William Barr today, but he usually reserves that for gun owners. Appearing on MSNBC after the release of the Robert Mueller report, the Democratic presidential hopeful told Nicolle Wallace that Mueller proved that Donald Trump was a “double digit obstructor.”
