We have long sanitized the horror of the battlefield with a four-letter acronym: PTSD. It is a label we offer our veterans with a mixture of pity and respect, a way of acknowledging the invisible shrapnel they carry home from distant wars. This association provides a comfortable distance for the public; it suggests that extreme…

I’ve been bullied more than once in my life. Every single time I was bullied, I asked myself what I had done to deserve it. I didn’t say, wow, what a bully I’m dealing with. I said to myself, wow, I must have really, really caused this in some way. I must have said something.…

Good morning. I want to talk to you a little bit about what it means to be ‘America First’ and why I have such a problem with Vice President Vance’s interview on The Joe Rogan Experience and the harm it causes. Let’s start with what it means to be ‘America First.’ It means that as…
