The Administration is telling us to brace for chaos at the border. They could have prevented this but chose not to. Migrant encounters could rise to 10,000 a day or more.

No voter can really know that they are not wasting their vote. People try to make their vote count by picking from among the top-funded candidates – but those candidates may not best represent the actual will of the voter.       In April,…
