President Donald Trump floated the idea of expanding his extrajudicial strikes on alleged drug-trafficking vessels to dry land—or as one might refer to it, he pitched declaring war.

Read MoreTrump Sued After Destroying White House for His Tacky Ballroom
As the demo bore on, it became clear that what had been originally pitched as a minor expansion to one of the most prominent symbols of American democracy would not only destroy the historic two-story addition, which was constructed under the presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt. It would also overshadow the White House entirely, with…

It belongs to the National Park Service because it’s a national heritage site. It’s a place of history; it’s a place of meaning. I don’t know how many of the listeners will have ever had the chance to tour it, but if you tour it, you do get the sense of the weight of America’s…

Indiana Senate Republicans aren’t falling in line behind President Donald Trump’s gerrymandering scheme to keep control of Congress in the 2026 midterm elections.

There are no prime-time speeches on the…
