Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.

I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Opinion | I Watched It Happen in Hungary. Now It’s Happening Here.

β€œHere, too, powerful people are responding to authoritarian advances just as their Hungarian counterparts have β€” not with defiance, but with capitulation, convinced that they can maintain their independence and stay above the fray.” They’re wrong.

I don't care if Bill Clinton, Dolly Parton or Jesus Christ himself is implicated in the Epstein files. Anyone who committed such crimes should burn. I believe that because I'm not in a cult.

Opinion | The immunity ruling was ostensibly to protect former presidents. So much for that. Far from deterring such prosecutions, the court’s β€œrule for the ages” has made them easier.

β€œThe only β€˜protection’ afforded by the perverse incentives in the Supreme Court’s immunity decision is for bad-faith actors in the Oval Office β€” something we are seeing play out in real time.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom: β€œ80% of Californians pay about average taxes. 40% of Californians pay lower taxes than they do in Texas and Florida. Texas and Florida tax their lowest wage earners more than we do our highest wage earners. So who’s the high tax state? Is it California or is it Texas?”
