Manchester Township, York County — With only eight days until the primary, one York County representative is breaking ranks and stepping outside of the norm, endorsing two candidates running against the establishment. The political move is being called “unprecedented” and “shameful.” “It's unfortunate this day has come, but I can stay silent no longer,” said Representative Mike Jones, (R) 93rd District. Silence has never really been a strong suit for Representative Jones. The York County Republican is throwing his weight behind two challengers, Wendy Jo Fink and Joe D’Orsie, two political newbies.

Russia, he said, looks at its interests, and Ukraine does the same. Hungary must also...

In turn, the shortages bid up housing costs for Americans — and generate extra wealth for landlords and real estate investors. In many cases, several or many low-income migrants share an apartment or house, so allowing them to price middle-class American families out of good housing. The vast majority of imported refugees — including Ukrainians and Afghans — get some funding from taxpayers. But there is no direct aid for...
