Prosecute Donald Trump: Evidence of criminal intent too damning to ignore

For those who've dismissed the proceedings of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol last year as more about political theater than accountability, the testimony from Cassidy Hutchinson should change their minds.

Good guys vs. gun lobby: Gov. Hochul and AG James try to keep New York's streets safe

Under the twisted vision of the Supreme Court majority, states and localities are now barred from deciding who can get a permit to carry a concealed weapon.

Devastating defeat for rights of women

Overturning Roe v. Wade is not the first time the Supreme Court has driven a dagger into the heart of human rights and further divided a deeply troubled nation. But not since the 19th century have there been other decisions so dreadfully indefensible and consequential.

Elon Musk is not the populist he pretends to be

In the latest chronicles of Big Tech's most contentious tycoon - Elon Musk, chief executive of Tesla, founder of SpaceX and self-described “free speech absolutist” - the illusion of a populist hero is flickering. Earlier this month, several workers at SpaceX were fired after issuing a letter criticizing Musk for his online antics, labeling him a frequent source of “distractio...
