"The incivility that we see in our public life generally is creeping too much into the court's opinions." Justice Anthony Kennedy says there was a "marvelous" collegiality among the justices when he was hearing cases on the Supreme Court, but that has changed.

"This idea that we're going to just pass on these freedoms and there's not going to be any kind of interruption of them is something that history would refute," says Jim Mattis of the importance of civic duty. See more of our interview with Jim Mattis and Ryan Holiday this weekend on PBS.org.

"Primaries have ended up being an anti-democratic element of our system," says AEI senior fellow Yuval Levin, "because they empower a very, very narrow sliver of the American people to make the essential first mover choice in our system." Follow on Apple: bit.ly/4d0WOi2

"Dispatches from Grief" author Danielle Crittenden acknowledges she has learned something from suffering, but she rejects the "happiness hucksters" who insist grief is a gift. "It does make you, I think, a bigger and better person. But as a gift, I would happily return it."

If Congress doesn’t do its job, “you end up with something closer to a monarchy or a dictatorship,” says @oonahathaway.bsky.social. “The whole reason for the revolution was to reject that form of government…When the president is able to act without any checks from Congress, all of that goes away.”

Polling that Andrew Ross Sorkin found while researching "1929" suggests it was President Hoover’s opposition to repealing Prohibition rather than concerns about the economy that doomed his 1932 reelection bid. "[Hoover] could have reversed himself .. and then I wonder whether he would have won."

“Our immigration policies are undermining supply of labor in a lot of different areas, including and particularly health care,” says Lanhee Chen. What has made the American health care system “the finest in the world…is that we have been able to train and retain talent from around the world.”

The White House has announced a partnership that will help users of the #TrumpRx website find cheap generic drugs through @mcuban.bsky.social's @costplusdrugs.com and other sites. In February, Cuban defended TrumpRx against Democratic critics. “Give them a chance,” said Cuban.

Actor @benmckenzie.bsky.social explains why he has criticized fellow celebrities like Matt Damon for promoting cryptocurrency. "This is an investment. This is not a car or soap. And you're not supposed to offer people financial advice unless you're a licensed financial advisor."

"Congress has come to see itself as a secondary player in a fundamentally presidential drama, so that the question they always face in their own minds is a yes or no question about the president…," says Yuval Levin. "They have a real job to do."

Trump is heartless, immoral, and disgusting. His cruelty against Cubans must be stopped. More Americans should be outraged by the cruelty being unleashed on the world.

The FBI searched a storage facility Monday on South Flowers Road in Langhorne in connection with the "ISIS-inspired" attack outside New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's residence Saturday, police said.

“A warmongering Israel has nuclear weapons, but Iran — the oldest civilization — can’t have them. That’s America’s biggest double standard.”

Putin has lied his entire career. Yet Witkoff says we can take Russia “at their word” that they’re not sharing intelligence with Iran. Taking the Kremlin at face value while U.S. intelligence reportedly says otherwise is utterly incomprehensible and mind-boggling naive.
