The Democrat Party’s official X account used the Easter weekend to reminisce about allegedly “better times” when one of their own was leading the country, while leaving out any reference to Joe Biden’s four years in the White House. The social post was a clear bit of selective memory, a snapshot meant to comfort supporters without wrestling with tougher questions about recent performance. From a Republican view, that kind of nostalgia feels like a political Band-Aid, not an honest look at the record. When the song is only about the highs and skips the lows, voters deserve to know what…

The latest back-and-forth with Tehran reads like diplomacy on pause: Washington says it’s negotiating with empowered Iranian interlocutors, while Tehran insists message-passing through Pakistan is not true talks, and both sides remain at odds over whether progress is even possible. Talking through third parties is an old tactic in diplomacy, but it often obscures who holds real authority. The United States insists it is engaged with figures capable of speaking for Tehran, portraying these contacts as meaningful. Iran’s remaining leadership, however, dismisses the exchanges routed through Pakistan as anything but substantive negotiations. Calling these exchanges “non-negotiations” captures the frustration on…
