It therefore granted Little’s motion to remand the action to state court.  READ THE FULL STORY AT LAW WEEK COLORADO

The organization has popped up throughout the U.S. and has been linked to a number of crimes amid the crisis at the southern border. "TdA is a true organization. They're not a gang.

Morgan: Trump’s so right to say he’d ban trans athletes in women’s sports

By Piers Morgan, Commentary | New York Post Sometimes, Donald Trump hits the common-sense nail smack-bang on the head. After years of cowardly public officials pathetically tiptoeing around the increasingly farcical, and grotesquely unfair, issue of biologically male trans athletes competing in women’s sports, the former and quite possibly next president of the US spat out a potentially very consequential truth bomb. “You just ban it,” he said during a Fox News town hall on Wednesday, to huge cheers from the audience. “The president bans it. You just don’t let it happen.” READ THE FULL COMMENTARY AT THE NEW YORK POST Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in commentary pieces are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the management ...

St. Onge: Inflation rising is awkward for Chairman Powell, nightmare for Kamala Harris

By Peter St. Onge, Commentary | Daily Signal Inflation is rising again, and even Federal Reserve cheerleader Bloomberg is worried the Fed is losing the plot.

This is known as a policy error. And the Fed’s been making a lot these days.
