In scathing opinion, federal judge dismisses Trump campaign lawsuit in Pennsylvania
Trump’s quest to overturn election runs into quiet resistance from local and state Republicans
Biden reaches out. The GOP slaps him in the face. - "...when politics is reduced to all slapping and no reasoning, and when the words 'take this country back' mean keeping the loser of a free election in power by manipulating the truth and the law, we have traveled a long way from the democratic tradition. Those who lack the conviction to sustain that tradition by defending rationality and the democratic rules of engagement forfeit their standing to ask the rest of us to believe that they are operating in good faith."
Trump’s overarching Middle East strategy reaches a disastrous dead end - "So what does President-elect Joe Biden do with this mess? First, he will want to remember the mistakes he and Obama made on their watch — above all, wrongly judging an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal to be the key to the region, and making it a priority despite the manifest unwillingness of the current leaders on both sides. But then he ought to revive Obama’s equilibrium strategy, which allows the United States to align itself against the aggression and human rights abuses of both Iran and Saudi Arabia, while gradually making the pivot away from the Mideast the past two presidents aimed for."
