"Its like chickens for Colonel Sanders.Why would any self-respecting Latino vote to re-elect President Donald Trump, arguably the most anti-Latino chief executive in U.S. history? Yet, Trump is likely to do better than expected with Latino voters After all, they tell themselves, the president is not talking about people like them.The problem is that, when it comes to Latinos, Trump cant stop talking trash."

By Jason Sattler

"The truth is that if Trump cared about corruption, he would be a huge fan of impeachment. As House Intelligence Committee ChairmanAdam Schiff saidlast week, the Founders put impeachment in the Constitution 'because they wanted a powerful anti-corruption mechanism when that corruption came from the highest office in the land.'But Donald Trumps concerns here are far more sinister and obvious.If hes looking into corruption, its for one simple reason. He wants to do more of it."

"Democrats, on some level, are asking Americans to get upset about foreign aid to a country many of them would have trouble finding on a map. It mightbe a tough sell to gin up uncommitted members of the publicagainst a president who is reluctant to send taxpayer funds to a foreign country with a reputation for corruption. Trump ran on that message, and it paid off. NowRepublicans can claim hes following through."

"Trump, who seems to equate war crimes with battlefield toughness,certainly has the authority to order such a thing as commander in chief of the military. But is it worthy of being obeyed?Military ethicists have debated this for years."

ByTom Nichols

"I decided to go for the gold and point out that I cannot stand the cuisine ofover a billion people. And just to be annoying, I added that no one else could possibly like it either'I thinkIndian food is terrible,' I said, 'and we pretend it isnt.' This was all lunacy, of course, and I assumed that after everyone had engaged in their performative outrage, the world would move on. I was so very wrong."

By Reed Galen

"Stefaniks transformation from thoughtful conservative to frontline Trump defender should worry lifelong Republicans, NeverTrumpers and conservative-leaning independents. They once claimed an ideal, if built only on one-liners. That foundation has been shed and shredded, replaced by the GOPs increasing nihilism."

By Chelsey Nelson

"Ive built a business that I love, working with all people regardless of who they are. But I strongly believe that photographers should be free to align their creative talent with their beliefs. The government shouldnt force artists to express views they disagree with."
