A Permanent Stain on Our History
The Trump administration’s embrace of nativism is as shameful as it is self-destructive.

Trump reacts to Biden's cancer diagnosis: "The autopen is becoming a very big deal, because it seems like maybe that was the president, whoever operated the autopen. But when they say that that was not good, they also - you know, you have to look, and you have to say the test was not so good either"

what if Biden - who is actually Catholic - had done this? Or any politician anywhere on the planet, for that matter, while the church is still in mourning for the late Pope
