    The Senate may still be hashing out the idea, but House GOP leaders say they're on track to give the president renewed "fast track" trade promotion authority. (Sen. Rand Paul is having none of it.)

  • Martin O'Malley wants Democrat lefties to give up on Elizabeth Warren and support his run for the presidency.
  • Britain's government wants police to screen people's online communications to sniff out extremism. Which is a perfectly modest proposal.
  • With a move for at least minor restraint on domestic surveillance gaining legislative steam, Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) thinks we should set the NSA loose instead.
  • Congress is considering cutting Amtrak funding, which may literally prevent a(nother) trainwreck.
  • The Libertarian Party sued the Republican-Democrat lovefest known as the Commission on Presidential Debates in an effort to gain access to their chats.
