The final score as Sarah Sanders exits White House: Sanders, 1, the press: 0

Sarah Sanders won, and it wasn't really a contest. As Donald Trump's press secretary officially exits the White House at the end of June, it's worth examining the extraordinary impact she had on how the Beltway press corps functions, and how news outlets barely put up a fight as she helped...

I’ve really been liking the Democratic U.S. Senate candidates that have been emerging. Yes, it’s a tough Senate map and some of the big names like Stacey Abrams, Beto O’Rourke and Joaquin Castro have passed on the races. But this is an incredible opportunity for us to create new rising...

Seattle's mayor to Trump: Immigrants don't scare us; you do

Donald Trump’s latest feckless attack on the libs appears to be backfiring. He seems to have convinced himself that, because he’s irrationally afraid of immigrants, everyone else must be, too. So he’s threatening to send undocumented immigrants to sanctuary cities as a “punishment.” Oh, noes! What will we ever do...
