Trump Wrongly Says Democrats Are Responsible for Children’s Deaths at the Border

Image
A child had not died in Border Patrol’s custody for a decade until the Trump Administration As Homeland Security Secretary  Kirstjen Nielsen  travels to the border in the wake of two children dying in Customs and Border Patrol’s custody, President  Donald Trump  is tweeting from the White House that Democrats are to blame for the deaths. (True to form, he is also  blaming Democrats and Nancy Pelosi for the shutdown .) Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally. They can’t. If we had a Wall, they wouldn’t even try!

Trump becomes first president since 2002 not to visit troops at Christmastime

Image
Though he called military personnel on Tuesday, Trump did not visit a hospital or a military base. On Christmas Day, President Donald Trump took part in a long-running practice of presidents who called troops stationed around the country and the world. But he broke from a recent tradition of actually visiting troops and wounded warriors. He did so in 2017, when he visited wounded troops at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Dec. 21 (and invited Coast Guard service members to play golf at his course in West Palm Beach, Florida). By staying home on Tuesday, Trump became the first president since 2002 who didn't visit military personnel around Christmastime. Based on a check of NBC logs, former President Barack Obama visited troops at Marine Corps Base Hawaii, in Kaneohe Bay, every Christmas he was in office, from 2009 to 2016. Before him, according to a check of news releases, former President George W. Bush visited wounded warriors at Walter Ree

Study: Teen smoking rates dropped after Washington legalized marijuana

Image
Contrary to predictions, teen marijuana use declined in Washington state after recreational pot was legalized in 2012, a new study finds. Researchers analyzed data from the Washington Healthy Youth Surveys of 2010-2012 and 2014-2016. They found that marijuana use among eighth-graders fell from almost 10 percent to just over 7 percent. In 10th grade, pot use declined from nearly 20 percent to less than 18 percent. There was no change among 12th graders, the study found. But while the findings are encouraging, there is not enough evidence to determine the long-term effects of legalization on youth marijuana use, said the researchers at the RAND Corporation and other organizations. "These findings do not provide a final answer about how legalization ultimately may influence youth marijuana usage," said study co-author Rosalie Liccardo Pacula, co-director of RAND's Drug Policy Research Center. "A variety of factors may influence the behavior of adolescents a

Anxious teens gain confidence by performing ‘off script’

Improvisational theater training can reduce fearfulness and anxiety among teens struggling with social interactions, a new University of Michigan study suggests. School-based improv theater—performing without a script or preparation—may be effective for social phobias and anxiety disorders because it offers a low stigma, low cost and more accessible context for help in reducing these symptoms, say U-M researchers. Participating in improv can enhance a student’s well-being and reduce their anxiety, says lead author Peter Felsman, a graduate student in social work and psychology. “In addition, the mutual support that improvisation rewards builds trust, helping group members feel safer taking risks and more willing to make mistakes,” he said. Felsman and colleagues say this is the first study to examine whether improvisational training can be linked to reduced social anxiety in a school setting. For the study, nearly 270 Detroit high school and middle school students partici

Trump Demands Stop To Emoluments Case As State AGs Subpoena 38 Witnesses

Image
President Trump’s Justice Department is scrambling to stop two state attorneys general from procuring evidence about whether the President is violating the Constitution’s emoluments clause by filing an emergency appeal in the Fourth Circuit court. Warning that attorneys general from Maryland and DC have sent 38 subpoenas to third parties, Justice Department attorneys argue that the court needs to halt the lawsuit at the district court level before documents from those subpoenas are returned by a January 3 deadline. Trump lost a motion to dismiss the suit at the district court level in the case, and he filed the appeal as a petition for writ of mandamus, essentially asking the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals to override the lower court and halt the case immediately before throwing it out entirely. DOJ attorneys argue that the state attorneys general have a “fundamentally flawed” view of the Constitution and that the lower court judge, District Judge Peter Messitte, co
