Is the deal with Mexico a huge win or a mirage?

Are Democrats moving too far left in the primaries?

You could argue that Joe Biden is moving too far left in the primaries on abortion and other issues possibly undermining his whole candidacy idea as the moderate who can beat President Trump in the fall.

Should House committees have more power to sue administration officials?

It's questionable as a long-term precedent. But you can certainly understand the frustration among Democrats with all of the refusals of administration officials to comply with subpoenas.

Finally, THE RANT:

Today's rant is on President Trump's interview on CNBC on Monday morning which he continued to completely misrepresent what trade deficits are. We don't lose hundreds of millions of dollars to these countries we get stuff. He also suggested that he should have more power over the Federal Reserve like the Chinese premier does. That's a really scary prospect for Wall Street and investors.
