Your articles are always the most respectful--of the reader--I've ever read. I always feel smarter after reading your pieces. You give us just the facts and otherwise provide the primary sources and leave it up to us to read them. You do not insult our intelligence. Thank you! I recommended your site to many people based on that alone, but of course you also treat timely topics.
Thank you so much for your very informative articles. I have learned so much from reading your column. I feel like I am taking an enjoyable and very interesting civics class. You have become my main source of political news since there are so few people I trust to present the news fairly. I understand the reaction of those who fear the Trump administration is trampling on individual rights and freedoms. But you present the news in a straight forward way and let us draw our own conclusions. I respect that.
I really enjoy your "reader's guide" issues like this one. As many others have said, thank you for your thoughtful, even handed, fact based reporting and for respecting that your readers can handle all the details.

Thank you, Judy! Can’t tell you how much that means to hear.

Thank you, Sharon! “An enjoyable and very interesting civics class” -- that’s exactly my goal! Thanks for reading along.
A very fine walk through of the indictment and what it requires to have gotten this far. Thank You.
Very well written. I appreciate taking the time to explain things. Like Judy said - you do not insult your readers’ intelligence!
I wholeheartedly agree with Judy Parrish's comments. Thank you.

Thank you Gabe for all the research. What seemed like a straightforward indictment is anything but.
See Victor Davis Hanson's 9/29/25 piece titled "Comey Faces Indictment, but His Real Crimes Remain Untouched" for additional context.
What goes around comes around … Comey made his bones with a ragtime claim about lying by Martha Stewart.
Thank you for this explanation.
I have a question about the docket. There is an entry from October 6th for a proposed order filed under seal.
"Ex Parte Under Seal Motion (Attachments: # 1 Proposed Order)(swil) (Entered: 10/06/2025)"
Any speculation on what this might be or who filed it?

Thanks for this. Lots to parse for sure.
