Kansas lawmakers are now debating a big question. Should voters elect justices to the Kansas Supreme Court? Or should the state keep its merit-based nominating process?

Lawmakers debate whether voters should elect Kansas Supreme Court justices
Kansas currently has a merit-based system that doesn’t let voters have more say in the process.

My mom helped run a Social Security field office for most of my childhood. The population that these locations serve is overwhelmingly disabled, elderly, poor or some combination thereof. That’s who they’re looking to deny services and resources.

Elon Musk is not the legal administrator in charge of the "Department of Government Efficiency," the White House said in a court filing, and has "no actual or formal authority" to make decisions.

Be careful with unknown callers. Besides fraudsters who try to steal your personal information directly, now it's possible to closely duplicate voices using AI with only a few spoken words. Disguise your voice, refuse to ever say "yes", and block numbers from people you have never contacted before.
