Fighting back.

Donald Trump almost never throws the first punch. But if one is thrown at him, he very quickly punches back.

To tell the truth.

No Republican president prior to Trump has had the gumption to tell the truth about anything if there existed even a microscopic chance that it might evoke a charge of racism.

Thus ends Mueller.

In a functioning free republic governed by the rule of law, sober men and women would get to the bottom of how such a specious attempt to take down a duly elected president ever got off the ground in the first place.

Is there a plan?

Can anyone explain the wisdom of every year allowing a million or so poor, low-skilled, social services-consuming strangers into a country that is $22 trillion in debt and whose cities are already coping with a burgeoning homeless problem?

Out on the edge.

Democratic presidential hopefuls find themselves pulled inexorably to positions that were unthinkable even to the Obama campaign.
