“The political sphere, and the world more broadly, would probably be a better place if we did away with the practice of lying. Most of us would sleep more soundly at night if we didn’t feel the need to treat political campaigning with similar skepticism we’d give to days-old gas station sushi. But that doesn’t mean we’ll improve the world by giving government officials more power to punish dishonesty.” (03/19/26)
