Positively shocked that the house magazine of the Manhattan Institute is upset that my book refuses to attribute America's record-high homelessness to "personal choices"—rather than, say, rents outpacing income gains by 325 percent since 1985.

This isn’t the first time kids have been on the receiving end of ICE's chemical weapons.

Knut Hamsun was a novelist, a Nobel prize winner, and a Nazi who gave his medal to Goebbels in 1943. Despite all attempts to rehabilitate him, to separate the man from his art or even to brand him mentally unfit, he will always be remembered as a Nazi. Machado is a fool.
