It’s time for the Supreme Court to finally issue a ruling on tariffs. The Court has already recognized that tariffs function as a tax on the American people. A president cannot unilaterally impose new taxes on American citizens that power belongs to Congress alone.

Dokoupil's both-sidesing of Jan6 is especially unfortunately given that @macfarlanenews.bsky.social has been relentless on the Jan6 beat.

We need hard truths and tough reporting, not 'both-sides-equal' trash
The CBS anchor again embarrasses the network’s legacy. Plus: some examples of journalists who are doing it right

The Norwegian Nobel Committee made it clear that while a laureate can physically give away the medal or other physical items, that does not make someone else a Nobel Peace Prize winner. The official title and recognition remain tied to the person the committee originally selected.

We already have complete access to Greenland, including unfettered freedom of navigation into the Arctic.
We have a military base. We have early warning radar systems in place that will integrate with the “dome.”
And we have allies to help defend it. We don’t need Greenland.
