Torn From Their Families for No Good Reason

The hard-line policy of President Trump and Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly is spreading fear among immigrants and is not keeping us safe.

The pain and disorder are all part of their plan.

Firefighter’s Practiced Maneuver, Five Stories Up, Ends in Fatal Fall

While rare, experts say serious injury and death are risks of any ladder work, even the routine operation that led to a firefighter’s death in Queens on Thursday.

Just an accident.

Fox News employees say they were unaware of a method to report misbehavior. Experts say companies often create hotlines to limit legal liability.

Move along.

I will try to remind them.

Fox’s decision to finally drop Bill O’Reilly wasn’t based on morals, but it is still a victory for morality.

Any victory goes to economics.
I can be glad O'Reilly is out.
