Today, many children in Iran are forced to drop out of school, due to poverty and the economic crisis, and enter the labor market for their own or their family’s survival. These children are subject to violence and abuse. This approach is a serious violation of international children’s rights. More than 5% of construction work in Iran, being one of the most difficult tasks, is done by working children. The employment of low wage working children in the markets is very profitable for owners. For this reason, government institutions in charge in Iran are not only reluctant to solve this...

NEW YORK — Now that his largely invisible network has suddenly been flooded by fans of President Donald Trump, Newsmax television personality Grant Stinchfield is puffing out his chest. “They don't know what to do with all of us,” Stinchfield said on the air Monday night. “We're killing it here on Newsmax with a tactic they've never tried. It's called the truth, the stone-cold truth, and once you get a taste of it, you will never tolerate being lied to again.” In many cases, the opposite is true. Newsmax, the television arm of a conservative website, has reported falsely that...

You have witnessed the Patriots of these United States Of America stand by and watch, as the American left, and their allies, have pursued radical change, and the destruction of even our most basic values. You have set out to overturn our Constitution, deny us our God given rights, and deny us the Liberty to seek recompense for the injustices of which you have perpetrated upon this great Nation, and it’s people.

With Republicans already in control of 50 Senate seats for at least the next two years, the GOP needs to win just one of those two Georgia Senate seats to hold a slim majority.

According to Dershowitz, the strategy is to pull electoral votes away from former Vice President Joe Biden. "The clock is a double-edged sword in this election because if they don't have enough time but if they can put forward a sufficiently strong case then they may be able to get some Republican Secretaries of States or legislatures to say, 'Look, we just don't have enough time to certify these electors' and if they can bring...
