Is the world going into a recession? And if so, can the United States avoid being dragged in? Even though there are many who speak with great certainty as if they did know, the short and correct answer to both questions is no one knows.
Rep. Ilhan Omar has filed for divorce from Ahmed Hirsi, the father of her three children. And all the rest of the country goes: What's going on with this Muslim Democratic congresswoman from Minnesota, anyway? Her personal life doesn't just seem a mess. It's also, legally speaking, a curious mix of question marks and asterisks.
From Europe to Asia, geopolitical strategies are realigning, and all of the moving pieces converge in the Caucasus region, which includes three post-Soviet countries: Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan.
The Federal Reserve, European Central Bank and other foreign monetary authorities are engaged in a dangerous race to the bottom -- pushing interest rates to perilously low levels.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has deliberately cultivated the image of a macho guy, a man's man, who fears nothing. He rides a stallion bareback; he dives for underwater treasure (and conveniently finds some).
"The Other End of the Line," translated by Stephen Sartarelli, offers a good murder mystery, a strong sense of atmosphere, and vivid descriptions of interesting characters, places and Sicilian food.
With government/civics classes marginalized for decades, one-third of Americans cannot name a single branch of the federal government.
President Donald Trump, in a late Sunday evening Twitter rant, did what he does and continues to do and with just a few short characters spread over a few short tweets, utterly slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Rep.

Redskins players and coaches are paid, and paid well, to endure, no matter how ugly this season gets. But why would fans put themselves through this?
Congressional leftists have finally gone stark raving mad. In the leftists' latest quest to destroy the president through impeachment, Americans know it's really "impeachment schmeachment." In other words, they are engaged in just another sham.
Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden and his son Hunter may have been -- say it with me -- "exonerated!" for their activities in Ukraine, but Mr. Biden has not escaped damage. Indeed, the Ukraine imbroglio will likely prove fatal in a presidential race in which Mr. Biden was once firmly ensconced as the front-runner.
In its most common usage, the expression "Freedom isn't free" is intended to convey gratitude for the service of members of the military and to recognize that the freedoms we all enjoy are possible only because of the risks taken, and sacrifices made, by veterans and current members of the armed forces.

The leftist warriors who dominate the media are more concerned over the Trump administration's efforts to bring justice to those who misused their position and abused their authority.
Let's take a break from the media's Trump Derangement Syndrome and look at their other obsession -- branding America as a uniquely racist nation.
