All Americans are paying for mass tort lawsuits — even those who have never heard of this type of litigation.

Mass tort litigations are lawsuits that involve multiple individual plaintiffs, sometimes thousands of them, seeking damages from defendants, usually corporations, […]
If you listen to enough political speeches, then you will hear a politician refer to America as a “city upon a hill.” Presidents John F.

Republican presidential candidate and constant front-runner Donald Trump is recycling one of his favorite claims against political rivals: their supposed ineligibility to run for office.

The public’s confidence in the media is at record lows. Whoopi Goldberg just reminded us why. This week, The View host came unhinged and said one of the most absurd things about former President Donald Trump that’s ever aired on TV.

“The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the government, and I’m here to help,’” Ronald Reagan once said, but the 40th president could never have known just how right he was.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) said she has “serious concerns” about President Biden’s border policies during a House committee hearing on Thursday. “There is so much fear-mongering going on that it is difficult to know exactly where to start.
