    It really is amazing that all of the networks just aired an hourlong show celebrating students graduating during a global pandemic and everyone thought it made complete sense not only for the current president not to be involved but for the former president to be the keynote.

    Arabella & me at the Supreme Court today. I'm grateful for the opportunity to teach her about the judicial system in our country firsthand.

    Just in case you were wondering, a member of Congress cannot “formally request[]” that the 25th Amendment be invoked.

    Ten years ago tonight, I went to bed sober, having finally reached the realization—or more accurately, admitted the realization I’d long known—that drinking just wasn’t working for me any more. I did not know what would come next, so I took it one day at a time. For 10 years.

    So, I know I’m not paying as close attention to everything as I normally do, but I have a few questions: • Did anyone see Trump on Thursday? • Did we figure out why Pence canceled Friday’s trip? • Where’s Barr? • Is Christie still in the hospital? What’s his status?

    "What do you want me to say about slavery?" should be the end of Nikki Haley's political career.
    Q: What was the cause of the United States Civil War?
Haley: Well, don’t come with an easy question or anything. I mean, I think the cause of the Civil War was basically how government was going to run. The freedoms and what people could and couldn’t do. What do you think the cause of the Civil War was?
Q: I’m not running for president. I wanted to hear you view on the cause of the Civil War.
Haley: I mean, I think it always comes down to the role of government. We need to have capitalism, we need to have economic freedom, we need to make sure that we do all things so that individuals have the liberties, so that they can have freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom to do or be anything they want to be without government getting in the way.
Q: Thank you. In the year 2023, it's astonishing to me that you'd answer that question without mentioning the word “slavery.”
Haley: What do you want me to say about slavery?
Q: You've answered my question. Thank you.
Haley: Next question.
