Trump helping Orbán makes perfect sense if his goal is to turn the US into Hungary 2.0. Orbán's government gutted the courts, muzzled the press, took over universities, and crushed civil society.

Senate Democrats walked away empty-handed, and don’t let anyone tell you different.

Dems got played, Schumer failed to keep his caucus together, and the American people got nothing.

We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

In Canadian law programs, the U.S. Supreme Court is analyzed primarily as a political institution in judicial form. It’s used as both a cautionary tale and a contrast to systems that try to insulate courts from partisan influence.
