Democrats have been trying to pass a law that would require political campaigns to report any offers from foreign nationals to make campaign donations or to coordinate with a campaign.

I could sure use some good news. And lucky for us, there is some! The news today is completely dominated by the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter, and the upcoming election. But there are other important stories, and in one of them — global warming and climate change — we have very good news. You […]
