A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

On Tuesday, I had never heard of Dr. John O'Brien II, Gov. Shapiro's new pick for the Board of Pardons.
Today, I am aware of more than two dozen cases where Dr. O'Brien was paid hundreds of dollars to say essentially the same thing: The defendant cannot be rehabilitated.
