Opinions P.M.

It's about time someone attacked Australia. Thank you, President Trump.
Vegemite? Mel Gibson? Dual-flush toilets? They totally had it coming Down Under.
Protesters call supporters of Trump's travel ban idiots and bigots. They're wrong.
These cultured despisers should pause long enough to ask a simple question.
 
Rethinking the War on Terror, with the help of science
A Q&A with an anthropologist who's been studying violent extremism on the front lines of battle.
 
When will Congress take on Trump?
Voters need to sound the alarm.

Five myths about anti-Semitism
The alt-right aren't the only ones who subscribe to it.
 
Video of Reason Foundation panel on “Immigration Reform in the Era of Trump”
Video of a recent Reason Foundation panel on the economic, moral, and civil liberties impact of Trump's immigration policies.
The United States abandons Ukraine
Ukrainians thought Washington had their backs. Then Donald Trump became president.
 
An important first step on Iran
It's not nearly enough, but at least we're heading in the right direction.
 
 
Donald Trump has been released on a technicality
Splitting orange hairs.
 
Why the Ben’s Chili Bowl mural matters
Cosby finally is gone from U Street.
 
Decency as an act of political dissent
A birthday, a story, and then deep thoughts
 
The GOP’s Obamacare repeal plan could hurt Republican areas. This map shows how.
In a rational world, this might give some GOP lawmakers pause about repeal-and-delay.

Proposed R.I. bill: Any judge who is ‘person of color’ must be replaced by another ‘person of color’
But this would pretty clearly violate the Equal Protection Clause.
 
Fairness and campus tribunals
Since universities aren't going to act on their own to do justice, the initiative must come from elsewhere.
 
On Gorsuch, Garland and inconsistency
Gorsuch is a good pick. But that's not to say that the Democrats don't have good cause to try to block the appointment.
