Will sanity prevail at the Supreme Court? The post Pray Away the Precedent appeared first on The American Conservative .
Politics Pray Away the Precedent Will sanity prevail at the Supreme Court? This week, the Supreme Court heard arguments on whether the 14th Amendment’s assurance that the children of freed slaves were citizens also means that if an 8-month-pregnant Mexican woman runs across the border and drops a baby, that baby is a citizen, too. Which brings up the point, let’s hope the dogma doesn’t live loudly within Justice Amy Coney Barrett. That was what the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein said to Barrett during her confirmation hearings, noting that the dogma might not always align with “big issues that large numbers of people have fought for years in this country”—such as, for example, off the top of my head, amendments added to the…Open

Politics Vance Walks the Iran War Tightrope The vice president faces a sticky wicket. The long knives are out for Vice President J.D. Vance.

If media outlets report that Vance was less gung-ho than others about yet another…Open
The Islamic Republic has become more radical while retaining its strike capabilities. The post Deeper Into the Iranian Quagmire appeared first on The American Conservative .
Foreign Affairs Deeper Into the Iranian Quagmire The Islamic Republic has become more radical while retaining its strike capabilities. President Donald Trump says that Iran “is totally defeated and wants a deal.” Iran says that the fact the U.S. is “talking about negotiation now is exactly an admission of defeat,” since, at the start of the war, the U.S. demanded “unconditional surrender.” Iran has been pounded during the month-long war. But they have not been defeated. The U.S. risks leaving Iran wounded but intact and able to restock its missiles and rebuild its civilian nuclear program. The U.S. says it has achieved “most,” or even “all” of its “military objectives in Iran.” But Iran is still capable of firing…Open
During an address from the White House, President Donald J. Trump told Americans that the U.S. military, as part of Operation Epic Fury, was nearing completion of operational objectives in Iran.
Nearly all of legacy media dropped identical headlines, enforcing to the American public what Trump needed them to – that the end in Iran is nigh.
