Harris leads Trump in polls, but remains an underdog due to the Electoral College
As we head into the final stretch of the presidential election, it remains a toss-up, but all things considered, you’d rather be Vice President Kamala Harris than Donald Trump.

On abortion rights, Trump hands Harris, Dems a key opportunity
Several years ago, Michael Kinsley famously wrote, “A gaffe is when a politician tells the truth — some obvious truth he isn’t supposed to say.” This came to mind last week, when Donald Trump accidentally said what he was thinking about abortion policy in his adopted home state of Florida. It was in April 2023…

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson shows support for a binding Supreme Court ethics code
