On Morning Joe, playing off Barack Obama's 60 Minutes interview in which he blamed social media in part for "truth decay," Mika and The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg bemoaned social media's supposedly insufficient censoring of conservatives. Mika Brzezinski and Goldberg fretted that conservatives being left "unchecked" leads to " serious problems."

To the contrary, he says that the advantage of good government is…

On Thursday, The Atlantic ran a truly damning piece accusing President Trump of saying that a cemetery of marines who died at the Battle of Belleau Wood, one of the most important battles of World War I and in the history of the Marine Corps, is "filled with losers" and that they were "suckers" for getting killed.

Systemic racism is being blamed for a whole host of problems these days, but one cause I didn’t dream of was “systemic racism in sleep.” Brittney McNamara highlighted the issue on Friday in Teen Vogue in a story about Fannie Sosa and Navild Acosta, the creators of…
