There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

I mean, honestly, if Trump tried to attack the Vatican and take out the Pope, I feel pretty confident we'd get beaten by a bunch of nuns and cardinals and then agree to a ceasefire that requires American Catholics to pay a fee for every prayer.

There is no silver bullet indicator on US employment, but the ISM non-mfg employment index, particularly the 3m avg has some statistically significant predictive power. The March decline at a minimum supports the idea that a good part of the surprising strength in March payrolls was noise

The pair of agents restrained a woman on the ground as a crowd gathered near Pillsbury and Lake Street. Videos show them dragging her on the road towards their vehicle as protesters hurled insults and snowballs. The agents eventually left her in the street as they hurried to their vehicle.
