Mayor @ZohranKMamdani's videos about due process are very good. The right is going to regret ceding support for personal liberties and the Constitution to the left. washingtonpost.com/opinions/… @PostOpinions

Before you romanticize the past, read The Grim Old Days by Cato’s @chellivia. Unthinkable poverty. Bloodletting. Streets turned into open sewers. The preindustrial world was more gruesome than modern minds can fathom. Order now: ow.ly/NL8j50ZY9JW

A winter getaway in Gstaad would seem sensible enough if your ex-fiancé’s wedding was nearly bankrolled by a Russian oligarch. My latest: washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

America is at war with Iran, but does not look serious. America is trying to end another war in Ukraine, but does not look serious. Ironically, Katie Zacharia communicated this perfectly. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

"The Zacharia blip will have voters wondering whether there ever was a Trump strategy more detailed or weighty than the platitudes she read off in her 14-minute White House briefing. In less than three weeks, they’ll be heading to the polling stations to do some communicating of their own." @KateAndrs
"The new and now-former press secretary served in the job for approximately 4½ days. She squeezed in one disastrous 14-minute White House briefing, a campaign trip to Alaska and a couple of interviews on Fox News in a desperate bid to save her job," @KateAndrs writes. wapo.st/4jtOsED

Real wages are shrinking year-over-year for the sixth month in a row. The Iran War brought an end to three years of real wage growth.

Check out these photos of the former HUD headquarters in DC: the building that's literally falling apart but the government can't get rid of due to tangled bureacracy. The federal government's property maintenance backlog is $370 billion, by the way.

Illegal entries are down under Trump, but he's cut legal immigration even more than illegal immigration. The cuts to immigrants, refugees, parolees, students, H-1B workers, and fiancés were 2.7 times as large as the cut in Border Patrol arrests and evasions.

My colleague @DominicJPino, alongside our amazing @PostOpinions visuals team, has put together one of the best series you're going to read this year. The Looming 2030s is scary and insightful reading. Congress needs to start taking its spending problem seriously. Read here 👇
The $40 trillion national debt is one of the gravest challenges the United States faces. This nine-part series from the Editorial Board examines how we got here and outlines how the nation can chart a better course. 🧵⬇️

If a private school stinks, nobody has to go to it. If a public school stinks, some kids are forced to go to it, and the most powerful pressure group in education will do everything it can to prevent them from going elsewhere. I'm more concerned about that.

The erosion of America's fiscal space has been largely bipartisan. Reforms for greater responsibility will have to be bipartisan too.

WATCH: @jaredpolis has two views on the federal scholarship tax credit: 🇺🇸 As an American: I hope every state participates. 🏔️ As a Coloradan: California, whatever you do, PLEASE don’t opt in. We’ll take your taxpayers’ money. 😂
