Debate on Kansas Supreme Court selection method
The piece argues the current Kansas system to choose justices is flawed and favors name recognition.

It defends professional selection for specialized roles and cautions against broad public influence.

The Nation Urges Pause on Veterans Benefit Grab Bill

It warns the plan would pay pensions without service connection, adding policy confusion and cost.
