The Two-Headed Monster of White House Leaks
Last week, President Donald Trump erupted with fury over a series of public revelations of private facts — some top-secret and some office gossip — that painted him and his White House in a bad light.

Why gun control feels out of reach — and why there’s still hope
By now, it’s a vicious, horrific cycle: In the wake of yet another mass shooting, the public reels from a combination of grief, outrage, and frustration. The shooting at an Uvalde, Texas, elementary school on May 24 is the worst school shooting since the Sandy Hook shooting in 2012.
It’s also a reminder of how little has changed since then to enact meaningful gun control legislation. In

Will Pandemic Foil Biden's 2020 Run?
"This is the question that is going to dominate the election: How did you perform in the great crisis?"
So says GOP Congressman Tom Cole of Oklahoma in today's New York Times.

No, Dr. Fauci, We Are Not ‘Ruled by the Science’
Dr. Fauci says that the FDA’s decision to pause deployment of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine is the right one because “we are ruled by the science and not any other consideration”:
This is nonsense. Indeed, it’s almost self-parodic nonsense. The “science” tells us that, as far as we know, six people out of the seven million who have taken the Johnson & Johnson vaccine have

We’ll Have Herd Immunity by April
Amid the dire Covid warnings, one crucial fact has been largely ignored: Cases are down 77% over the past six weeks. If a medication slashed cases by 77%, we’d call it a miracle pill. Why is the number of cases plummeting much faster than experts predicted?
In large part because natural immunity from prior infection is far more common than can be measured by testing. Testing has been

A Slip of the Tongue in the Supreme Court
When lawyer Sarah Weddington stood up in the Supreme Court on Oct. 11, 1972, to present the pro-abortion argument in the case of Roe v. Wade, she was legalistically careful in the language she used to describe whom exactly an abortion aborted.
She avoided normal human terms like "unborn child" or "baby" — and, most importantly, "person."
She preferred "fetus."

Economy crushed expectations with 467,000 jobs in January despite omicron surge
The economy crushed expectations in January and added 467,000 jobs, a surprising and encouraging sign that the labor market pulled through the omicron surge relatively unscathed.
The job gains for the past two months were also revised up by 710,000, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday, meaning that what had previously seemed like lackluster growth throughout the early winter

Liberal Media Alternate Between Denying and Excusing Rioters and Looters
There’s a reason Americans have such little faith in the news media in 2020—and the problem isn’t President Donald Trump.
Rioting, vandalism, arson, and looting have become commonplace, but media outlets are too busy spinning narratives, rather than pursuing the truth of what is happening.
The most common tack thus far is for the media to simply deny that violence and destruction

‘Isn’t This Almost The Definition Of An Empty Threat?’ — Chris Wallace Presses Debbie Dingell On Sending Impeachment To The Senate
Fox News anchor Chris Wallace pressed Democratic Michigan Rep. Debbie Dingell about the fact that House Democrats have yet to send impeachment articles against President Donald Trump to the Senate for trial.
