The Most Powerful Force Changing Our Society Is The Information Revolution.

The Aclu Is An Organization With A Long And Distinguished History Of Fighting To Protect Freedom Of Speech. On The Other Hand, In Recent Years, It Has Carried Its Mandate To Ever More Eccentric And Often Highly Destructive Lengths.

I Really Spent A Period Of Time Where, I Suspect, I Cried Three Or Four Times A Week. I Read Men Who Hate Women And The Women Who Love Them And I Found Frightening Pieces That Related To...my Own Life.

I Think Donald Trump Is Very, Very Cautious About Nuclear Weapons, And He's Seriously Concerned.

The Idea That The United States Can't Guard Its Own Border Is Silly. It's A Sign That Were Not Serious About This...people Who Legally Shouldn't Be Here.

It's Going To Be A Bummer If Mars Turns Out To Be Like Us.
