Comey’s Haunting News on Trump and Russia
The F.B.I. chief’s disclosure of an inquiry into possible election collusion makes a special prosecutor and a select congressional committee crucial.First the F.B.I. must make a report.
Congress can investigate after the criminal trials.
Immunity should not interfere with prosecution.

An End to Heart Disease? Not Quite
The introduction of a new class of cholesterol drugs led some experts to believe that we might be able to virtually eliminate heart attacks. But it hasn’t worked out that way."If there is a silver lining, it’s that the tried-and-true remedies are highly effective at reducing the threat for those at great risk of heart attack and stroke. Despite the newest drugs, a combination of heart-healthy behavior, blood pressure control and statin therapy remains the gold standard."
Patients should fix their diets.

Gorsuch’s Collision Course With the Administrative State
He is rightly skeptical about federal agencies making rules by interpreting laws passed by Congress.The power of the executive agencies is different from the interpretive power of the judges.
The Congress demands rules that have an effect.
The executive agencies write the rules that achieve the desired effect.
The judges decide after hearing argument whether those rules are possible and when the rules are violated.
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/21/us/politics/neil-gorsuch-confirmation-hearings.html
Gorsuch should not be on the Supreme Court.
