I’m truly bothered that tens of millions of Americans consider Joe Biden to be a “nice person” in contrast to Donald Trump, who is supposedly a loudmouth bully and the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler.Since I’m annoyed by Trump’s speaking style and name-calling, I am hardly a Trump zealot. But I doubt that Trump sounds more vituperative, dishonest, or malicious than Biden.

Local law enforcement and the FBI are using a new tactic: the “knock and talk.” Pairs of agents are appearing on Americans’ doorsteps unannounced, uninvited, and invariably without a warrant, with the aim of gaining access. For what exactly? Information. Visual surveillance. Property searches. And the Fourth Amendment’s protections against warrantless searches? Authorities don’t seem terribly concerned.
