Limiting Trump’s Words

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 28. 2023 In speeches, interviews, social media posts, a sneeringly defensive Donald Trump has attacked the Justice Department, prosecutors and judges, and potential witnesses in his various criminal trials. No one disputes that. Predictably, Trump’s claim to federal Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is presiding over…

Politics and Pickets

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 27, 2023 The images of President Joe Biden joining the UAW picket line in Detroit and Donald Trump, his chief opponent, lining up a rally of autoworkers tomorrow are a remarkable mix of politics and labor that should tell car companies something about the need to…

On Tossing Out Menendez

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 26, 2023 Sometimes this process of seeking to wring meaning about our values from watching how we conduct ourselves is obvious. Once again, apparently, greed keeps returning as a standing human motivation. What is most remarkable then about the indictment and downfall of Sen. Robert Menendez…

No Price for Defiance

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 22, 2023 This week, Alabama filed an emergency appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court, essentially asking for a new hearing of the redistricting case it lost three months ago. Specifically, the pitch came hours after a federal district court refused a request for a stay in…

Resetting the Ukraine Debate

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 21, 2023 The debate, if you can call it that, over the commitment to stand by Ukraine against a marauding Russia seems neatly to encapsulate a lot of what ails us these days. On the one side stands Joe Biden, speaking with knowledge and sturdy restraint…

Ending Childcare Supports

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 20, 2023 Whatever last-minute maneuvers are brought to bear on resolving a looming government shutdown, they are almost certainly not going to address continued support for childcare costs that came about as part of help during the pandemic.

Swinging a Legal Sledgehammer

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 19, 2023 As with health care, seeking increasingly to settle matters of culture by law is leading us to no good endpoints. Generally, we’re seeing that these laws don’t solve the originating problem while they put people at risk just for trying to pursue their training…

Breeding Fear and Anger

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 17, 2023 We’re sitting in an American puddle of fear and anger, seemingly without motivation to think about solutions.

A ‘Fairness’ Rollback

Terry H. Schwadron Sept. 15, 2023 It was predictable that the Supreme Court thinking behind barring affirmative action considerations in university admissions would not stay on campus. A federal district court judge in Tennessee has struck down a provision of a federal Small Business Administration program meant to help minority-owned…
