TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas Republicans are trying to pull Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly into a national debate over border security as the GOP works to undercut her standing with voters ahead of her re-election bid next year. Republican U.S. Rep.

His call came the same day former President Donald Trump visited the border to assail President Joe Biden's i...
(THE CONVERSATION) It wasn't a dramatic expansion of religious rights – not yet. But the Supreme Court's ruling in favor of a Catholic adoption agency that had been excluded from Philadelphia's foster programs for refusing to work with same-sex couples will be consequential.

The court's decision, delivered in a 9-0 ruling, emphasizes a pluralist a...
