Politics & Elections

Congress, the courts, campaigns, the White House — the fights over American power.

Politics is the meta-debate that contains the others — about how decisions get made, who gets to make them, and what counts as legitimate use of power. Conservatives argue for federalism, original constitutional design, and restraint on executive overreach. Liberals argue for institutional reform, voting access, and structural fixes to a system that doesn't scale to the modern country. Bilateral covers the live institutional fights: Supreme Court legitimacy, Senate procedure, election integrity, executive orders, congressional dysfunction.
