The partial veto should be scrapped or constrained as part of an array of reforms that reset the relationship between governor and Legislature and restore democracy to state elections.
The institution of chattel slavery did nothing to benefit the enslaved; the only beneficiaries were plantation owners and the global economy that was fueled by the forced labor of the enslaved.
Democratic strategists really want Pres. Joe Biden to have a rematch with Donald Trump next year. I don’t think it’s worth the risk.
It’s not one I want to live in.
Acclaimed Washington journalists Judy Woodruff and Al Hunt will appear at our fundraiser at Cap Times Idea Fest with David Maraniss moderating.
