Biden Issues More Pardons and Commutations Under Pressure From Criminal Justice Groups
Outgoing President Joe Biden granted 39 pardons and commuted the sentences of roughly 1,500 federal offenders serving the remainder of their sentences on home confinement today.

Keeping These Tax Cuts Is a Bad, Expensive Idea
Extending the individual income tax portions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) is supposed to be a good thing, right? After all, who doesn’t love lower taxes? However, data from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) predicts that, without accompanying spending cuts, these tax cuts are going to cost the government. If the cuts […]

In November 2019, I offered a series of recommendations of how the process could be improved. One of my ideas was to adopt a lottery: Attorneys […]
Pete Hegseth’s Acceptance to West Point Is a Story
When is a news story not a news story? Perhaps when it is disproven prior to publication. Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of defense, lashed out at ProPublica earlier this week after the investigative journalism organization started asking questions about whether Hegseth had ever been accepted to the United States Military Academy in […]
