- Russia’s foreign minister
announced today he and other diplomats in Geneva reached an
agreement to “de-escalate”

disarmed.” This may come as a relief to Jews, considering
pro-Russian militants are
reportedly telling them to “register” or else they’ll lose
their citizenship (but it might just be the world’s worst

running again (not literally). He kicked off his re-election
bid today. - The federal government really outdid itself in 2013. The number
crunchers at the Competitive Enterprise Institute say the feds
produced a total of
26,417 pages of regulations—a new record! - A North Dakota district judge overturned the state’s law that
prohibits an
abortion after a heartbeat can be detected. - The Portland, Oregon, Water Bureau is flushing
38 million gallons of reservoir water after a teenager peed in
it.
