The Democratic side believes that if Donald Trump wins, it will mean the end of democracy

In a new study of life-expectancy in six English-speaking countries, America does not come in first, second, or even third. We come in last. Dead last. The new study, which appeared in the British

On Tuesday, June 18th, a new word showed up in the vocabulary of the Middle-East war: “inevitable.” Nearly every expert in Israel from the country’s military leaders to its newsletter writers said that an all-out war with Lebanon’s Hezbollah was inevitable. And who is Hezbollah? Like Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah is a part of Iran’s “Axis
On Wednesday June 12th something frightening happened. The Russian Northern Fleet naval group completed “precision missile weapons” drills East of the Florida Keys, within easy nuclear missile distance of the United States.

In the wake of Covid, are Americans losing their minds? Sort of. We are going crazy for animal stories. Why? It could be because stories of insanity among humans are just too hard for us to take.
