Dave Duffy, My wife and I own a couple of smoothie/food shops. As small-business entrepreneurs, we take a lot of pride in providing 55 jobs while making payroll every week, all self-financed as saved- and scrimped-for investment capital.

Mark Meckler, With the Republicans showing some spine and elevating Judge Neil McGill Gorsuch to the Supreme Court, there is reason to celebrate. Antonin Scalia’s seat has been filled by someone who may be able to do it justice, if you’ll allow the pun. Really, only time will tell, since we’ve been burned before. Conservatives have a
Noah Feldman, The “extreme vetting” proposals floated this week by Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly include the idea of making visitors to the U.S. open their phones and disclose their contacts, passwords and social media handles to immigration authorities.
