MATTHEW WHITAKER: NO ONE SHOULD BE INDICTED FOR CHALLENGING LEGITIMACY OF ELECTION

Neither Democrats nor Republicans should be indicted for questioning and challenging the legitimacy of an election, and Republicans are being punished for doing so because there are “blue prosecutors in blue states that are willing to take these novel legal theories and charge [former] President [Donald] Trump and others with these crimes,” says former Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker.

FAREWELL - AND GOOD RIDDANCE

by Kelli MarĂ­a Korducki

For most of the 20th century, the word “family” in America evoked a predictable picture of cookie-cutter cleanliness: the happily married husband and wife, their 2.5 kids, and one improbably well-behaved golden retriever, all under the same roof. But the nuclear family has steadily eroded over the last 50 years.
