Morley Winograd offers a novel solution to end the government shutdown: Democrats should give President Trump what he wants—$5 billion for a wall—in exchange for complete protection of the Mueller investigation and the full public disclosure of its report.
As the funding fight over a border wall continues to drag on, Christine Stenglein and John Hudak demonstrate that money isn’t always the solution to securing our borders. They point to a multimillion-dollar effort to hire more Border Patrol agents that has resulted in only 15 new agents thus far.
As Democrats prepare for 2020, many have expressed alarm at the number of likely candidates and the absence of a clear front-runner. But, Elaine Kamarck argues, that concern is not entirely warranted, as the modern nominating system is well equipped to winnow a crowded field.
They clearly want to have their cake and eat it too. [The Trump administration] wants to play the shutdown game but they want to have the government operating."
