I agree that they must be afraid of Trump, or else they wouldn't be spending so much time trying to prevent him from running again. However, I will have to disagree somewhat. I think Trump's biggest...

Yeah, I think that Putin is clearly in the wrong here, as virtually any unprovoked invasion of a foreign nation will make your side the very bad side. I think everyone agrees that being the villain i...

Everything with the January 6 Commission seems designed to milk the event for all the political worth the Democrats can get from it. The left has learned that if it can merely commence a political inv...

Well, it's the Daily Beast, so what can you expect? I don't even know for sure, but I assume TDB is basically an opinion site, like Vox.
