The video of the latest killing in Minneapolis is truly horrific.

America’s immigration debate has often centered on the morality of mass deportation. Progressives have argued that exiling law-abiding families is inherently wrong — no matter their immigration status. Conservatives have insisted that vigorous internal enforcement is necessary for deterring chaotic inflows of migrants, upholding America’s laws, and preserving our nation’s culture. This is an important […] Read more ›

Accidentally poisoning yourself is much easier than you might think. Once, I took two antihistamine medications on the same night and panicked when Google told me that there might be an interaction between them. So, I called the toll-free Poison Help Line — 1-800-222-1222, listed on many household chemical bottles — and they told me […] Read more ›

As a result, America’s young families […] Read more ›

Perhaps it’s the natural human inclination toward nosiness, but people are always interested in what others are and aren’t buying. Those purchases always invite some kind of judgment, comparison, envy, desire to stay on trend, or some combination of all of the above.
