*ScottRasmussen.com: **Democrats See Trump Supporters and the Unvaccinated As Biggest Threat to Nation* Fifty-seven percent (57%) of Democratic voters believe supporters of Donald Trump are a serious threat to the nation.

Report: State Of Insecurity – The Cost Of Militarization Since 9/11
Twenty years after 9/11, the war on terror has remade the U.S. into a far more militarized actor, both around the world and at home. The human costs of this evolution are many — including mass incarceration, widespread surveillance, the violent repression of immigrant communities, and hundreds of thousands of lives lost to war and violence. But of course, this militarization also has financial costs too. Over 20 years, the U.S. has spent more than $21 trillion on militarization, surveillance, and repression — all in the name of security. These investments have shown us that the U.... read more
