Sanity has prevailed in the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
When you knowingly cross the border into another country — any country — without permission, that's a crime, right? Yes, in every country in the world.
The Justice Department made news on Thursday when it filed a "statement of interest" in a long-running lawsuit against Harvard University that supported claims of Asian-American students that the university is discriminating in its admission process.
Even if you strongly oppose President Donald Trump and want to see him defeated in 2020 or impeached before then, you should hope his presidential campaign succeeds with its legal action against Omarosa Manigault Newman alleging she violated a nondisclosure agreement. And if she broke any laws, you should want her prosecuted.
The first two weeks of the trial of former Donald Trump failed to implicate Trump or his campaign in any alleged criminal conduct.
Historian Jacob Burckhardt once warned against being deceived by "terrible simplifiers." If he hadn't died in 1897, you might be tempted to think he was writing about defenders of President Barack Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
Led by Republican Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Mark Meadows of North Carolina, 11 GOP House members filed articles of impeachment this week against Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, seeking to remove him from office.
The news media is reporting that an internal email at the Justice Department has reminded its lawyers that the legally correct term they should be using in their briefs is "illegal alien," not the euphemism "undocumented immigrant."

Every six months the director of national intelligence must report, by law, how many terrorists formerly detained at Guantanamo Bay have resumed terrorist activities. The last report pegged the recidivism rate at 30.1% —124 confirmed as once again engaged in terrorism, 96 suspected of it.
House hearing must not be the end
The furor over the family separation issue — children not being kept with their parents who have been detained for illegally entering the country — is odd. This is not some new phenomenon suddenly imposed by the Trump administration. It happened during the Obama, Bush, and Clinton administrations, too.
Just in time for the Fourth of July, the Trump administration announced it is rescinding Obama administration policies that directed universities to use racial preferences in the admissions process. Because this type of discrimination is the gateway drug of the identity politics balkanizing America, Tuesday's decision is a boost for unity and a setback for those who want to divide Americans.
We don't know yet which conservative constitutionalist President Trump will nominate to the Supreme Court to replace retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy, in an effort to solidify the five-member majority needed to help restore our constitutional republic. But we do know that liberals will launch what may be the vilest, nastiest, most vitriolic propaganda war ever against whoever the president nominates — no matter how sterling his or her professional credentials are.
