Former National Security Director John Bolton's indictment does not tell the whole story. While it properly alleges criminal activity, it does not explain why Bolton, a perceived Trump enemy, was indicted after a real Attorney General declined to indict. bit.ly/46UxloS

Harvard Should Never Settle with an Extortionist.
Trump took a page out of Nixon's playbook for his attack on Harvard. Only Nixon faced consequences. bit.ly/4n4IvwU
