Commentary Among the Supreme Court cases decided this year, none has been more misunderstood than Moore v. Harper (pdf). The Moore case illustrates how difficult some of the court’s work can be.

The American Left Seeks Permanent Division
Commentary Cynicism about the prospects for human civilization relates directly to our unfortunate propensity to wage war on rival families, tribes, nations, empires or alliances.
