The World Cup is the rest of world’s Super Bowl every four years. The passion and excitement generated by soccer in the rest of the world, where it’s more accurately called football, is part of people’s national identity.

The House is still undecided, but will likely go for the GOP with a much smaller margin then they hoped. The senate is hanging

They’ve taken away a woman’s power over her own body. They’ve allowed just about anyone to carry a concealed weapon in public making us all less safe. They’ve restricted the EPA’s ability to go after carbon emissions and fight climate change. Now, they may be going after the heart of the democracy, our vote. The

Today is the last day of the current session of the US Supreme Court. It’s a day we will long remember and live to regret. Four of the many rulings handed down will touch everyone of us. Of course, the most infamous was the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and the right to abortion
