POWERFUL! Houston dad Dorian Ojemen became the first father in Texas to use a wearable incubator to hold his premature baby skin-to-skin. This is what scientific innovation can do — give a father the precious opportunity to bond with his babies, even in the NICU!

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

Only in America are mass shootings in schools a regular occurrence. Kids endure active shooter drills. They never get to enjoy a sense of safety. Yet America refuses to deal with the guns. They value the second amendment over the lives of their own children:
