Trump declared that a joint natural gas pipeline venture with Moscow has left Angela Merkel's government "totally controlled" and "captive to Russia." So, in a stroke, he shifted attention away from his own ties to the Kremlin just days before he meets o...
It is a sign of the times: A new game show, “Paid Off,” debuted Tuesday offering winners not dream vacations or new cars, but a pile of cash to help lessen the crushing weight of their student debt. The reach of America’s student loan problem — total debt is now about $1.4 trillion — is vast. Millions of people are in default, and many young people are graduating into adulthood facing payments that limit their ability to buy homes and to start families of their own. http://www.startribune.com/as-students-hit-borrowing-limits...
MEXICO CITY – While President Donald Trump regularly berates Mexico for “doing nothing” to stop illegal migration, behind the scenes the two governments are considering a deal that could drastically curtail the cross-border migration flow.

July 10, 2018, Denver, Colo.— Research has shown that children of color are more likely to succeed when they have a teacher of the same race.
