Smerconish on CNN
Michael Smerconish tackles the American political and news stories of the week, offering a unique non-ideological take: his own.

CNN Michael Smerconish delivers his commentary on three key issues the Trump administration wants to take on: Harvard University, Abrego Garcia, and scaling back the IRS. CNN Senior Analyst Elie Honig weighs in on the Supreme Court temporarily pausing deportations under Alien Enemies Act. Then Texas Tech University law professor Bryan Camp addresses how audit rates and tax revenues will drop if the Trump administration makes the largest workforce reduction in history at the IRS. Finally, Harvard professor Steven Pinker reacts to new reporting about the Trump administration mistakenly sending a list of demands to Harvard University. Professor Pinker also welcomes greater viewpoint diversity at Harvard but rejects the idea that the federal government should micromanage a private university.
