"Defund the police" is backfiring, they said

People want higher police budgets, they said

Cons will fight it to the death, they said...

Thinking about how the Dolphins handled Tua over the past week. Compare that to Mike Tomlin, who held Ryan Clark out of the Denver game due to his sickle cell - despite him being medically cleared - in case something happened.

Thank you to everyone who has donated their time, sweat, and resources to help bring fresh leadership to our diverse neighborhoods.

We will bring home a victory in November the same way we succeeded in June: together!

Rather than trying to read the minds of white, slave-owning men who have been dead for 2 centuries, maybe we should just do the right things for people who are alive today.

Coaches leading high school prayers is deeply coercive. If you don’t understand that, then you didn’t play high school sports.
