The attorney general and Rep. Douglas Collins of Georgia, the ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, have suggested that nearly everything about Starr’s report is irrelevant to current circumstances because Starr was an independent counsel operating under a different statutory scheme than did Mueller. As, of course, he was. But so what? The court’s express holding in response to the Starr motion was that its order applied to Rule…

My social media feeds have been overwhelmed by my friends and colleagues mourning the burning of Notre Dame Cathedral these past two days. As a scholar of medieval studies, I get it — the building had a special resonance for lovers of history, architecture, and art.

By now, you’ve surely heard Bernie Sanders rail in his thick Brooklyn accent against “millionayehs and billionayehs.” But as the release of ten years of his tax returns has shown, Sanders is himself one of those very millionaires he frequently reviles for rigging the system, pulling the strings behind the scenes, and needlessly multiplying the number of deodorants available to American consumers. Sanders, a longtime evangelist for a socialist ideology…

Cases like this have been prosecuted before,…
