Ben Sasse A University President Not Afraid To Call Out Evil

It has been disheartening to watch the leaders of major universities dither over whether they should condemn Hamas for its terror attack in Israel.

We are facing a budget crisis in Washington DC, according to the leftist media. Without the House Republicans agreeing to continue current deficit spending, the world as we know it will end.
