Free enterprise requires competition to work, but corporate consolidation has destroyed that competition in agriculture.

Erika Kirk did something truly beautiful yesterday at her husband's funeral; she forgave her husband's killer.

In an age where so many people hate people on the opposite political side, this is something to admire.
