News you can use all day

An actual US Senator–Lamar Alexander–said that video games are a bigger problem than guns. No. Really.

  • Education - Legislation currently in progress in Missouri would require all first graders to take a gun safety class. Oh, there is still no Sex Ed in Missouri, not that it matters… (Think Progress)
  • Healthcare - Hey guys, did you know that Obamacare is exactly like “Jews boarding the trains to concentration camps”? Meet Idaho state Sen. Sheryl Nuxoll. She’ll explain it to you. (Think Progress)
  • Sports - Famous football-playing person (the real kind, not soccer) Kwame Harris came out, sort of, in a domestic abuse case with his ex-boyfriend. (OutSports)
