Facebook and social media in general have developed an unprecedented power that governments and their citizens are finally seeing not as a salvation but as a threat.

Too many judges, too many indigent jailed. Reform long overdue.

Republicans never had an actual plan. Bernie Sanders might learn from that.

The latest effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, is emblematic of deep political divisions over how best to provide health-care coverage to millions of Americans.

A political culture in which repeal of the Second Amendment is on the table is one in which stricter gun safety laws are politically feasible even if actual repeal never happens.

The swamp keeps getting deeper and deeper.
