The New Hampshire School Boards Association (NHSBA), the notorious creator of numerous combative and corrosive anti-parent policies often adopted by school districts across New Hampshire, recently held a presentation.

Minnesota Democrats are making life unaffordable for everyone in the State, it seems, unless you open a learning center.

The horizon over Tehran has changed. It is no longer defined by the minarets or the sprawling concrete of a revolutionary capital, but by the jagged, smoldering silhouettes of a shattered industrial base.

Go to any social media platform these days (Maybe not Bluesky.

Thanks to AI and people with nothing better to do, it has become virtually impossible to believe anything you see on the internet. I don’t think that’s a bad thing.
