    Smokey Bear and the environmental bandits | Opinion (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Consider the plight of poor old Smokey Bear. This once venerable cartoon spokesman for the Forest Service had only one piece of advice: “Only you can prevent wildfires.” Imagine his shock over President Donald Trump’s interpretation: “The way I can prevent forest fires is to permit more logging.” Beneath this smoke screen is the larger Trump administration plan to replace natural conservation as a national priority with exploitation whenever and wherever possible. Logging is one example. The adm

An authoritarian government has its attractions: speed, efficiency, and—often—clarity. But historic experiments with it have almost always gone spectacularly wrong. Forget Hitler and Mussolini, and look around today. We can see how corrupt dictators recently

    Birthright citizenship tests the Supreme Court counterrevolution | Opinion (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This week’s 5-4 U.S. Supreme Court ruling upholding birthright citizenship was much anticipated but it’s still a relief to see. It shows that the Court majority recognizes at least some limits to its counterrevolution against decades of liberal American jurisprudence. The court issued a number of reactionary rulings this year, but if it had struck down the constitutional guarantee of citizenship for those born here, it would have amounted to a reverse Roe v. Wade. Instead of using raw judicial p
