Declining trust in the American judiciary
Christa Case Bryant
In addition to our lead story today on declining trust in the American judiciary, we have a companion Q&A with a Reagan-appointed judge here in Boston. Mark Wolf stepped down recently due to his concern about what he calls the Trump administration鈥檚 鈥渁ssault on the rule of law.鈥� Mr. Wolf tells our Henry Gass how working at the Department of Justice during the Watergate era shaped his outlook early on.
Internationally, our London-based columnist Ned Temko sheds light on decades of nuclear diplomacy and 鈥渋ts last surviving thread,鈥� the New START treaty, which is set to expire today. And Story Hinckley gives a preview of some of the top athletes and teams to watch in the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics set to open this weekend.
