Money in politics has gotten a bad rap, especially from the left -- which is odd, because some of the biggest money around in politics is liberal money.

He unpacked the idea of “dark money” and explained who’s paying who, and what kind of impact it actually has. Plus: As we approach Independence Day, national pride is at a new low. What’s up with that? We’ll discuss.We also cover these stories:•The House Ways and Means Committee has filed a lawsuit to get President Trump's tax returns. •The Border Patrol is saying Rep.

The Intelligence from The Economist - Fight if you Haftar: the struggle for Libya

Life in Libya’s capital seems calm, even as a warlord backed by ragtag forces bids to take the city. Meanwhile the putative government can muster little political power—or electric power. We examine a miracle in Moldova: after years as a swamp of post-Soviet corruption, an anti-graft campaigner has become prime minister. And, historical data reveal the overlooked power of primary debates.

A bill to recognise same-sex marriage has failed in Japan’s parliament, exposing a widening divide between the views of its politicians and the values of its people.
