• Lindsey Graham says Donald Trump is making 'a mistake' on abortion, vows to push forward with nationwide restrictions

    WASHINGTON — Sen. Lindsey Graham sparred with Donald Trump on Monday after the former president attacked Graham, R-S.C., for pushing his bill to outlaw abortion across the U.S. after 15 weeks of pregnancy. While Trump said the issue should be left to states, Graham vowed to keep pressing for federal limits. “I think we should draw a line,” Graham told reporters. “We know that the Dobbs decision did not say that there’s no federal role.

  • The compelling case for axions as our dark matter

    Regulating new technology is never simple, but the status quo offers inadequate protectionThe principle that some products are available to adults and not children is uncontroversial. Access to weapons, alcohol and pornography is curtailed in this way because a level of maturity is the precondition for access (but not a guarantee of responsible use).Until recently, few people put smartphones in that category.

    Why Trump’s furious offensive against Lindsey Graham matters

    Donald Trump unveiled a video announcement yesterday morning on his newest position on abortion policy, and if the former president’s goal was to make everyone “happy,” he failed spectacularly. Critics on the left, for example, noted all of the questions the Republican left unresolved, the absurd lies Trump included in the clip, and the degree to which he celebrated his role in rolling back reproductive rights in the United States.
