Non-MAGA Republicans still exist, and in 2024, they’ll be a crucial voting bloc to watch.

God, are these people venal and stupid.

If the press doesn’t get involved in the civic health of the nation, there may not be a nation in which a free press might reside.

The media has forgotten that Donald Trump has an age-old problem as well.

Trump goes into his trials era with a big advantage—a majority of Americans incorrectly believe that the charges against him are politically motivated.

Conservatism is no longer defined by resistance to liberal progress—it’s all about destroying the pillars of our democracy.

A steady diet of economic freedom—and naming the enemies who oppose it—can pack a punch.

It has as much to do with Biden as it does Trump.

Most politicians could never mount a campaign amid four criminal proceedings—but that’s what Trump wants, and we need to understand why.

It’s frightening to imagine what Donald Trump might do next.

The former president has been on the outs with the network before. They’ll patch things up just as soon as their mutual interests realign.

If Kevin McCarthy does what his unhinged caucus wants him to do, he may as well hand over his speakership to the Democrats.

The House GOP’s crank caucus have been historically unproductive at governing—but that doesn’t mean they’ve done nothing.

Yes, Alina Habba is out of her depth. But John Lauro takes the cake in the former president’s legal clown show.

The third indictment against the former president condemns his “prolific lies.”

One of Congress’s leading authorities on A.I. says the federal government needs to be more involved in building guardrails.

Why we need to hope that Jack Smith—and Fani Willis—have evidence that will make their indictments look like civic and republican necessities, not political hit jobs.

The latest criminal indictment highlights his idiocy—but also the threat he still poses to American democracy.

Here’s who’s behind the right’s latest obsession with the Biden family dog.

Every president has thought about how history would judge him. Forty-five has more immediate concerns.
