Bruce Springsteen blasts 'King Trump,' slams Alex Pretti shooting in new song After Bruce Springsteen called out Trump's "thugs" in Minneapolis, the White House hit back against the "random" song and "irrelevant opinions."

Simply wow. Bruce nails it.

Trump's response to Reiner, Brown shooting shows limits as consoler-in-chief In times of national tragedy and grief, Donald Trump often chooses not to perform the traditional presidential role of comforting the nation.

Good perspective on Trump’s heartless remarks

No more pretty pennies. Some phrases won’t make sense without the one-cent coin. The Treasury Department and U.S. Mint won't make any more pennies. What does that mean for the future of sayings such as "a penny for your thoughts?"

A picture worth 1,000 votes? The photos of a demolished White House wing and landscape could be breaking through in ways other things haven’t. An iconic part of U.S. history razed to build a ballroom for the hugely rich? Nothing could be more attention-getting or less subtle, in words or visuals.

How has teaching about 9/11 changed since 2001? We asked educators. Once a shared experience, the day has slipped into history for students, and even teachers, who weren't yet born when the attacks happened.

9/11 will forever be etched in my memory as a journalist. But how do educators teach about this dark day years later? Excellent read
