Buzzfeed feeds the buzz: Michael Cohen says that Trump asked him to lie to Congress, and Mueller says…

The New Neo Posted on January 18, 2019 by neoJanuary 18, 2019

Radar creep

The New Neo Posted on January 15, 2019 by neoJanuary 15, 2019

This is a description of the insidious tightening of the state’s grip on France via radar on the roads. The process is a goodly part of what the yellow vests are protesting. Things like this often start with something that … Continue reading →

The New Neo Posted on January 11, 2019 by neoJanuary 11, 2019

We don’t know all that much about pot, but much of what we do know is that it appears to be bad for some people: Over the past couple of decades, studies around the globe have found that THC—the active … Continue reading →

Does the president have the legal authority to declare a crisis and build a border wall?

The New Neo Posted on January 10, 2019 by neoJanuary 10, 2019

The New Neo Posted on December 27, 2018 by neoDecember 27, 2018

How many people who think Trump is a tyrant because he does too much by executive decree felt the same way about Obama when he used the same tool? Does the Venn diagram of those two groups intersect at all? … Continue reading →

The worst of both worlds: the war on opioid abuse becomes the war on pain patients

The New Neo Posted on December 26, 2018 by neoDecember 26, 2018

Is John Roberts the new Anthony Kennedy—and if so, why?

The New Neo Posted on December 22, 2018 by neoDecember 22, 2018

Comey channels Alfred E. Neuman

The New Neo Posted on December 20, 2018 by neoDecember 20, 2018

Thinking about Comey once again: on getting away with it

The New Neo Posted on December 20, 2018 by neoDecember 21, 2018

Reading this commentary by John Hinderaker on Comey’s most recent testimony reminds me what an arrogant guy Comey is, among his other flaws—not that we really needed reminding. And Andrew C. McCarthy had this to say about the FBI’s questioning … Continue reading →

Alan Dershowitz on the Flynn case

The New Neo Posted on December 19, 2018 by neoDecember 19, 2018

Another smart piece from Dershowitz, who says it’s certainly possible that Flynn lied to the FBI and that the FBI acted improperly. Here’s how he describes the latter: The FBI knew the truth [about what Flynn had actually said, and … Continue reading →
