My 12-year-old daughter loves to go down the YouTube rabbit hole in pursuit of shows, cartoons or videos that pique her interest. I monitor her content, of course, and pull the brakes or guide her whenever necessary. Like many families in urban India, we do not watch linear television and we do not have a cable connection. Instead, we use OTT streaming services — Netflix, Disney+ Hotstar and Amazon Prime. YouTube is a favourite too and the explosive appeal of these platforms among children has led to more diverse and interesting content.

In the fall, the 18-year-old will become the first in her family to go to college and the burden to succeed is weighing on her.

The day’s first caller begged for help to cross state lines and end her pregnancy. “Please,” the woman from Texas said in her voicemail. “Anything would be greatly appreciated.” Three states away, in southern Illinois , Alison Dreith heard the plea and grinded a toothpick between her teeth. She’d started chewing them last year as a stress reliever the day Texas all but banned abortions. Now the stick darted across her mouth, left to right, right to left. She felt shaky. “It’s starting,” said Dreith. “What we’ve been worrying about for years.” When desperate people can’t obtain abortions near home -- when they need plane tickets, bus fare, babysitters -- they reach out to groups like Dreith’s, the Midwest Access Coalition. The demand has become staggering. Now, for the first time, she would have to tell a caller “No.” The U.S. Supreme Court this summer is expected to gut Roe v. Wade, the 1973 ruling that made abortion a constitutional right. But already, state … [Read more...] about Abortion resistance braces for demands of a post-Roe future

A mother detailed how her son fell victim to a border human smuggling operation in an exclusive interview with The Daily Caller News Foundation. Dora Ortega’s son was lured on Snapchat and was paid thousands of dollars to smuggle migrants into Arizona. Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Assistant Special Agent in Charge (ASAC) for the Douglas, Arizona, office Rae Reed told TheDCNF that the agency is “dealing with unprecedented numbers of human smuggling activity.” Dora Ortega knew her teenage son was hiding something when he arrived home at 2 a.m. He was wearing expensive new clothes that she knew he couldn’t afford with his warehouse job. But it wasn’t until Ortega’s son finally admitted what he’d really been up to that she realized the gravity of the situation. Ortega’s son, who was 19 at the time, had been picking up migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border and smuggling them into Arizona, she told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “They’re gonna be caught and then … [Read more...] about SMUGGLER’S PARADISE: How American Teenagers Are Being Lured Into Human Trafficking On Social Media

On a cool afternoon in May, vehicles are lined up bumper to bumper as far as the eye can see on the Rishikesh-Kedarnath highway in Phata, a small town in Uttarakhand’s Rudraprayag district. The convoy of vehicles is ferrying thousands of devotees who have descended on the hill State for the Char Dham Yatra — an annual pilgrimage to four Hindu shrines: Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath — which has resumed on a full scale this year after being a low-key affair for the last two years owing to COVID-19 restrictions. The pilgrimage, considered one of the most sacred by the followers of Hinduism, is a journey to the abodes of four deities: Yamunotri (goddess Yamuna) and Gangotri (goddess Ganga) in Uttarkashi district; Kedarnath (Lord Shiva) in Rudraprayag district; and Badrinath (Lord Vishnu) in Chamoli district. Devotees visit the Gangotri Dham temple that was opened on the occasion of Akshaya Tritiya, in Gangotri, on May 3, 2022. | Photo Credit: PTI Nestled in the … [Read more...] about Flood of pilgrims swamps Char Dham

Of all the failed policies of President Joe Biden and his Democratic Socialist enablers, allowing people to walk away from their student loan debts is perhaps the most disturbing. The irresponsible fiscal policies pushed by elected Democrats have given us historically high inflation that punishes hardworking families with dramatically increasing prices on gasoline and groceries. Their coddling of criminals has resulted in explosive crime across the nation. Their open borders policy has created a human tragedy and threatens our national security. But none of these glaring failures are as fundamentally offensive, irresponsible and insulting to taxpayers as the Biden-Democratic Socialist proposal to cancel student debts. This is a terribly personal issue for me and for millions of Americans who worked their way through college without going into debt or who have dutifully paid off or are paying off their student loan debt.  Why should hundreds of millions of Americans who did not go … [Read more...] about Wadhams: What for the students who sacrificed to graduate debt free?
