President Trump is taking Chinese President Xi Jinping to visit the National Archives on Friday, showing off the sacred texts of U.S. democracy to the leader of the world's most powerful communist country to cap off a three-day state visit criticized for being heavy on pomp and light on substance.
With the Supreme Court’s new term beginning in October, it will hear disputes over semiautomatic rifles, voter registration, and climate change. The subjects have little in common, but each presents a question at the heart of originalism.
