    >"Defund the police and use the money for mental health and human services." That doesn't address the cancer of gang violence and other violence that police need to deal with const…

    This is the case for every single country on Earth, and is actually still the case for most countries on Earth. Show me a country today and I'll show you a set of groups who are op…

    There are hundreds of millions of people who want to come into the US each year. It's inevitably going to be a difficult process.
