Outside the Beltway

President Biden’s dangerous gambit seems to have succeeded.

Do last year’s words belong to last year’s language?

The laying out of the case begins.

A man most have never heard of is being reassessed more than a half-century after his death.

A necessary but likely irrelevant gesture.

This man is the face of the post-Trump party.

Too woke! Not woke enough!

It’s not getting any better, folks.

It passed the Senate unanimously.

A way-too-early assessment of how it’s going.

Biden’s America is a place and idea in which the trappings of empire or glory are ephemera in comparison with perennial human relationships—families; friendships; communities; schools; neighbors; partners.

A parting shot from the Trump administration.

Why isn’t Joe Biden President already?

Will he be a uniter or a divider?

Cops aren’t soldiers or spies but fellow citizens.

It’s just not immediate.

The President is desperate and unwell and the press is making no bones about it.

The line between “hero” and “victim” is blurry and rendered meaningless when the former is over-used

To defang impeachment is an invitation for presidents to ignore the rule of law.

Despite denials and dismissals, it is clear that being an impeached President is getting under Trump’s skin.

By the end of today, Donald Trump will most likely be the third President of the United States to be impeached by the House of Representatives.

With her eyes on her political future in a GOP dominated by Trumpism, Nikki Haley is attempting to rewrite the history of one of the most significant events of her time as Governor of South Carolina.

Further evidence that the Republican Party has turned into a cult of personalty built around Donald Trump.

Happy Thanksgiving!
