Secretary Mayorkas continues to show that he is simply not the right person to lead the Department of Homeland Security, especially the men and women tasked with enforcing America’s immigration laws and securing our borders. Mayorkas repeatedly pleaded ignorance or dodged legitimate questions about the state of the border crisis. The reason why is obvious: the crisis has gotten so bad, those responsible for it are working overtime to avoid accountability and embarrassment for their failure to secure our borders and enforce our laws.
Police don’t need a warrant to collect abandoned DNA at a crime scene ... and don’t need a warrant to query CODIS because it is a government database. A criminal who leaves his DNA at a crime scene does not have standing under the Fourth Amendment to complain about what a distant relative does with her own DNA. Law enforcement officials should not be required to obtain a warrant to search third-party genetics websites that allow for public access.

The U.S. healthcare spending has gone from 5 percent of GDP in 1960 to 18 percent today. But not, as Bittman seems to think, because our food is making us sick – we live longer, healthier lives now. But because the reduction of our expenditure on food allows us to spend more on health care.
As many great cities lay in ruins after World War II, New York City assumed a new global prominence and even overtook London’s central position in the international financial markets. It soon became home to the world’s largest and most prestigious stock market on Wall Street and forever changed finance. Wall Street is often considered to be both a symbol and geographic center of capitalism. Today, New York City is the most populous city in the United States, with over 8 million people. And the greater New York metropolitan area, with over 20 million people, is among the world’s most populous megacities.

How Politicians Are Making Flippy, the Burger-flipping Robot, a More Attractive Employee Than You
"The steady replacement of men by machines -- the advance of automation -- is already threatening to destroy thousands of jobs and wipe out entire plants," warned John F. Kennedy in 1960, a time when computers took up entire rooms and cost millions of dollars. Sixty years later, when technology is less expensive and more capable, employing technology is economical for even more tasks. Kennedy talked about industrial robots performing operations at car manufacturing plants. Today, robots process your burger order (think mobile apps or those touch screen kiosks at McDonald's) and will cook the actual burger in the near future. These are basic realities and no amount of rhetoric from politicians will stop these changes. Politicians, however, are accelerating automation—perhaps without even realizing it.
