Election Day is supposed to mean what it says: a single, nationwide day when Americans cast their ballots. The Supreme Court’s recent decision in Watson v. Republican National Committee, allowing Mississippi to count certain ballots received as late as five days after Election Day, makes that principle harder to enforce. Congress should respond by passing the SAVE America Act, which would establish needed national safeguards. But the Court’s failure does not leave states powerless. State officials can act now by conducting regular voter roll maintenance, removing ineligible and long-inactive registrations as the law allows, strengthening voter identification and absentee-ballot verification,…

Cheats should never prosper. The Trump administration heeds that ethos and has stopped illegal immigrants from profiting off kickbacks drawn from four major refundable tax credit programs. The initiative was announced Wednesday by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and is destined to benefit taxpayers by an estimated $3 billion. The NY Post first reported the Treasury Department and IRS unveiled new rules “to tighten the requirements for the adoption, child, American opportunity, and earned income tax credits so that only U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, and qualified aliens can get them.” “Under President Trump, the days of illegal aliens collecting taxpayer-funded benefits are…

Whoops, here we go already. Canada has already disputed the existence of any deal.If midnight strikes on the eve of August 19th without Canadian government negotiators agreeing to Trump’s demands, then Canada faces “50% tariffs,” Trump had warned. Except now, apparently, Canada has a deal with Trump. For three days. Clock it. Best to check that reservation again before leaving the house, though.The reality…
