Children with liberal parents more likely to suffer mental health problems: Study

"Conservative parents have several key distinctions in their relationships with their children that inform mental health outcomes, Rothwell explained, including being able to "effectively discipline their children, while also displaying affection and responding to their needs." The right-leaning parents also have better quality relationships with their children, "characterized by fewer arguments, more warmth, and a stronger bond.""

Conservatives keep getting vindicated

"Society is again learning via hard experience that drugs are dangerous. Efforts to destigmatize drug use may delay this learning, draw out the epidemic, invite new cohorts to try hard drugs, and create more addicted people. Instead, we as a society should have the wisdom to say unequivocally that in this new era of synthetic drugs, none of these drugs—nor any illegal substance, which may well contain them—should ever be used."

Destigmatizing Drug Use Has Been a Profound Mistake

Russia has created a fake airline, which will probably be engaged in the transportation of illegal immigrants to Europe via Belarus

This is reported by the publication Bild. The investigation revealed that the airline called Southwind Airlines is based in Antalya and was created after the outbreak of war in Ukraine, but three airplanes and most of the company's employees are from Moscow-based Nordwind Airlines. Nordwind Airlines is owned by Pegas Touristik, and its owners are Russians with Turkish roots.
