Grocery prices are up. Trump’s tariffs are not helping; they’re forcing you to pay more each and every day.

Penn State’s dairy store always seems to get the publicity, but the best ice cream has always been in East Lansing.

Also, Spartan Swirl is delicious.

Hey Mainstream Media! Are you EVER going to cover the high grocery prices that we are experiencing?

Or do you only do that when Dems are in office and then you sacrifice your journalistic integrity once men you are inexplicably afraid of get in office?

I don't see the Japan deal being reported on this way. The press makes it sound like a reduction.

I think we need to use the political terms "left" and "right" less often and instead frame the battle as "democracy defenders" vs. "fascists" or "the pro-dictator crowd."
It's not partisan, and in many cases it's not even ideological. It's decency vs. indecency.

I debated whether to share my story on here, but I guess I will. I think there's an idea out there that millions of violent criminals are pouring across the border, carrying machetes and drugs, looking to harm Americans. Certainly, while some people fall into that category, the vast majority of undocumented immigrants don't. My family escaped Vietnam after the Tet Offensive and went through an arduous journey that eventually landed them in the Canada. My father worked there for a time as a janitor; my mother, a secretary. When work fell through, my dad was offered to work with his sister in the United States, so he went, as our family needed money. He ended up staying in the US longer than he was supposed to — not knowing immigration laws — and asked my mom to come be with him. Of course, she went and carried me over the border while I was still a baby. I'm still unsure whether we technically broke an immigration law. The border between Canada and the United States was pretty porous (as it is today, for the most part). But either way, since I came here without legal documentation, I eventually fell into the category of being an undocumented immigrant. Yet, I've been in the United States since I was a baby. My identity and roots are very much based in this country, no different from anyone else.

Even as government agents from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) ramp up their arrests and confrontations, the lug nuts on the wheels of the White House bus continue to loosen.
