Outside the Beltway

Right in front of our noses, one might say.

The libs are so owned.

More trophies and banners for Dear Leader.

He really likes tariffs.

Enough is never enough.

The case has major implications beyond the taxation issue.

Roles have been reversed.

One of the great success stories of American governance—economic growth paired with environmental progress—has gone largely unnoticed.

If you don’t collect the data, the problem disappears, right?

Michelle Obama thinks so.

Trump exploits our mistaken beliefs about crime to consolidate his power.

The slur “Trump Derangement Syndrome” unintentionally captures something real about our world.

A correct but disturbing ruling.

No. But it won’t matter.

Being nice at dinner is easy.

When does Executive overreach become something more?

The 47th President is flooding the zone.

About half the country wants about half of Trump.

Could Democrats replace their oldest Justice before it’s too late?

Public perception is not aligned with the top level data.

Another state has declared him an insurrectionist.

Joe Manchin has come around on a pared back BBB, surprising just about everyone.

When life doesn’t imitate art.

Democrats and Independents are losing their enthusiasm. But some perspective is needed.

Continuing the conversation from James Joyner’s post.

The House Judiciary Committee is seeking to obtain the material presented to a Federal Grand Jury by former Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

We already know enough to impeach.

As I have noted before: party trumps institutional pride. The Barr testimony is just another example.

Robert Mueller objected to the Attorney General’s characterization of the final report he submitted, reports indicate.

Having lost to him, she’s an ineffective voice on the matter of Donald Trump.

The findings are a dispiriting Rorschach test.

The Constitution’s invitation to struggle over foreign policy continues.

Another demonstration that evidence doesn’t much matter in modern American politics.

Before we draw broad conclusions of the reporting on the report, don’t we need to see the report?

The Lawfare gang and Popehat weigh in.

The principal findings of the Mueller report are now public. They’re good news for the President on Russia and a mixed bag on obstruction.

Robert Mueller appears to be winding down his investigation and getting ready to submit a report to the Attorney General.

Citing substantial cooperation, Special Counsel Robert Mueller is recommending no jail time for former Trump associate Michael Flynn.

Another morning, and another unhinged Twitter attack on the Mueller investigation by a President who claims the entire investigation is a “hoax” and “Fake News.”

More evidence that the politics of the moment aren’t just about illegal immigration.

The unconscionable violation of norms in 2016 won’t apply in 2018; it’s a matter of power, not principle.

Just under a year ago, Senate Republicans took a big risk regarding the Supreme Court. Now, it’s paid off big time.

Another Republican Senator has broken ranks and called for hearings on the nomination of Merrick Garland, as another poll shows most Americans support hearings as well.

The battle of Iowa is beginning with Mitt Romney in the lead, but Herman Cain and Sarah Palin aren’t far behind.

Herman Cain is getting a lot of attention lately, but will he amount to anything?
