While all eyes are on Mar-a-Lago and the goons Trump is nominating to besmirch high government offices, there is another potential threat looming to the rule of law, and it comes not from MAGAworld but from the sitting president. I'm referring to the possibility that President Joe Biden might pardon his son Hunter Biden.

In 1994, Republicans won a sweeping victory that cost Democrats control of the House and Senate for the first time in 40 years. Republicans took an eye-popping 54 seats, leading many to conclude that this was a permanent political realignment.

Two years later, Bill Clinton won reelection with 379 electoral college votes to Bob Dole's 159.

"It isn't a hard choice," we said. On one side was a candidate who would abide by the Constitution and laws of the United States and accept the outcome of elections. On the other was a candidate refusing to accept a 2024 defeat even as memories of his attempted coup in 2020 remain fresh; vowing to punish the "enemy within"; and promising that ...Read more

When he bounded onstage at the Trump vulgarfest in Madison Square Garden on Sunday night, Elon Musk declared himself to be not just MAGA, but "dark, gothic MAGA."

Believe him.

The sorry spectacle of leading industrialists, newspaper owners, tech executives, Silicon Valley entrepreneurs and others seeking to ensure their good standing with ...Read more

After I voted yesterday, I made it a point to thank every poll worker and citizen volunteering at our polling place. In Maricopa County, Arizona, the tabulation center will have snipers on the roof, metal detectors and security at every entrance.

In Colorado, some polling places have installed bulletproof glass and purchased bulletproof vests ...Read more

It never ends. The press still does not know how to handle the avalanche of lies that is MAGA's chief contribution to our national life. I understand, sort of. It's dull and time-consuming to bird-dog every false accusation, wild assertion or factual misstatement that comes out of Trumpland. "They're controlling the weather" is just the latest ...Read more

When a natural disaster strikes anywhere in the United States, Americans spring into action to help. I live in Virginia, which was mostly spared from Helene's wrath, but within hours, I was seeing messages that teams of rescuers from Maryland, Virginia and other jurisdictions were rushing aid to western North Carolina (some by mule!). People ...Read more

Dear Fellow Jewish American,

I beg you to consider the consequences of a Trump victory.

In the aftermath of Oct. 7, we've seen an ugly new chapter in left-wing antisemitism. Left-wing activists on campuses and elsewhere adorned their posters with images of hang gliders, delighting, one must assume, in the acts committed when those gliders ...Read more

Following the Eating Pets imbroglio, one would think that undecided voters would have their doubts quelled about how to vote in November. What more is there to say?

This sociopath stood by while his violent mob smashed their way into the Capitol searching for the vice president in order to lynch him for disloyalty. When asked about this later, ...Read more

In "The Wizard of Oz," the stentorian power of the great Oz is revealed as a fraud when Toto the dog (how apt) pulls back the curtain to reveal a squat, middle-aged man speaking into a microphone. Oz's power was all artifice.

On Sept. 10, Kamala Harris pulled the curtain to reveal a shallow, insecure, addled bully so easily baited that he ...Read more

When my friend David French -- New York Times columnist, pro-life evangelical, and lifelong conservative -- announced that he would be voting for Kamala Harris, it was like dropping a Porterhouse steak amid a pride of lions. The Dispatch's Jonah Goldberg wrote a rebuttal, asserting, among other things, that "endorsements trigger an instinctual ...Read more
