This issue for 4 May 2026 leads with Ruth Marcus’ report, investigating the cost of clemency in Trump’s America. Elsewhere, Elizabeth Kolbert details the retaliation of Lee Zeldin—heralded by Trump as ‘‘one of the superstars’ of his second Administration’—against the E.P.A staff involved in writing a letter opposing his leadership.
