Andrew C. McCarthy: “In reality, it is not the government but the Democratic Party that has an interest in a speedy trial — i.e., one that ties its main political opponent up in court and generates negative publicity for him during key junctures of the campaign. If the chief concern were due process rather than electoral politics, the Justice Department and the court would not be prejudiced in the slightest if Trump’s trial were postponed until after the November 5, 2024, election. If that happened, Trump’s free-speech and fair-trial rights would be protected with no harm to the administration of justice.”
The Democratic Party and the government are one and the same. The Republican Party is just there to provide them cover.

Tens of thousands of Hamas fighters have now been underground for nearly seven weeks. Their stores of food and fuel could be running low; they were prepared for an Israeli incursion, but not an open-ended one.
Meanwhile, the IDF has systematically destroyed and sealed hundreds of tunnel entrances — upward of 600 at last count — as it slowly tightens the noose around the underground network in northern Gaza. Hamas’s subterranean strategy has been counteracted by a simple and patient Israeli answer: Burying Hamas forces alive in their own tunnels.
