This is the sharpest criticism yet of Operation Kill Them All from a senior congressional Republican. Everything he says is not just correct, but also totally obvious.
GOP Rep. Mike Turner: "This activity that's happening in the Caribbean where they are hitting these boats -- these individuals if they were captured and tried and convicted, they would be guilty of criminal activity for which they're not subject to capital punishment. These people are being killed."

The Washington Post editorial board railed against a wealth tax without noting its owner, Jeff Bezos, stands to benefit more from its tax policy prescriptions than nearly anyone else on the planet.

Trump promised transparency and life-changing prosperity for families, but instead of keeping his promise, his administration is burying economic data.
When housing, food, and utility costs are rising faster than paychecks, hiding economic reports is an act of deception.
