The special counsel investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election has been a uniquely stupid chapter in news media history. Newsrooms got some of it right. They also got a lot wrong. One of the worst aspects of the press’ two-year-long exercise in speculation and rumormongering was social media, particularly Twitter, which provided reporters and political commentators with public platforms to spout off half-cocked for every new allegation…

Cathedrals often took more than a century to build in medieval times, a process that sometimes spanned the lives of several monarchs. So French President Emmanuel Macron’s pledge Tuesday to restore fire-devastated Notre Dame within five years was at odds with experts who predicted restoring the jewel of Gothic architecture would likely take much longer. A host of specialized artisans and skilled workmen will need to be gathered from around…

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., said the notion that the U.S. government spied on President Trump’s campaign is “complete and total nonsense.” During an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Nadler said “spying is a loaded word” and Attorney General William Barr should not have used that term to characterize the investigation of Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. He said the Federal Bureau of Investigation acted correctly in…

The Trump administration is reportedly considering releasing migrants detained at the southern border on the streets of so-called sanctuary cities. Not only is this a clear abuse of power, but it is an abuse that seemingly seeks to enact revenge on jurisdictions because of their commitment to enforcing basic constitutional rights. As the Washington Post reported on Thursday, the idea was explicitly political. As one congressional investigator explained to the…
