I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

Under Zohran Mamdani, gas prices have spiked, the stock market has cratered, and the US is locked in a nonsensical war with Iran. Is this really what New Yorkers signed up for?

Whether it’s Barack Obama wearing a tan suit to a press conference or Donald Trump saying that he’s glad that Robert Mueller is dead, both presidents shattered some of Washington’s most sacred norms.

Editor's Note | To properly allocate resources for Iran War reporting, we will be sunsetting coverage of: - Trump's crypto bribes - Trump's real estate, golf, and hotel bribes - US military strikes on Venezuelan fishing boats - Alex Pretti and Rene Good - Data theft by DOGE - the Epstein files

Times have been tough in this Ohio town since they closed the old money incinerating factory. So when Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth started spending $1 billion per day on a war with Iran, they finally had something to cheer about. But now the woke mob wants to take all that away.

Analysis | George W. Bush's Iraq invasion was preceded by months of meticulous planning, and yet history regards it as a failure. Perhaps Donald Trump's loose, improvised approach to invading Iran will be the key to its success.

Critics say that Trump's war with Iran could have a lot of blowback. But there is no historical precedent for the United States overthrowing an Iranian government and then facing 50 years of hostility from Iranians.

Analysis | If the right-wing Ellisons are allowed to purchase CNN, they could order Jake Tapper to obsessively focus on Biden's age, or demand that Van Jones to say Trump truly became president today, or allow Scott Jennings to brazenly tell baldfaced lies on a nightly basis.

The Atlantic was founded in 1857, the New York Times in 1851. So it's a bit surprising that David Brooks is leaving the Times for the Atlantic, given that the Atlantic is only six years younger.

Americans must have the right to bear arms so that they can resist tyranny. But if they exercise that right in a time of tyranny, they should expect to be shot and killed.

Trump not is advancing "one-sided narratives"--he is telling lies. You presuppose two sides, when in this situation there are not. He is telling a lie, a word that @nytimes, with all its primness & bothsidesism, refuses to use. And thus the NYT itself denies the truth.

I haven't watched any of the videos of the shooting of Renee Good but the fact that people on the left think it was murder while people on the right think it was self-defense shows that that the truth must be somewhere in the middle.
