Trump picks Pence as running mate
The presumptive GOP nominee tweeted that he has chosen Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, a deeply conservative former congressman and talk-radio host whose gubernatorial tenure has been marked by controversy over a state law seen as discriminatory against gays, to be his running mate, putting a seasoned elected official and far more ideological figure beside him on the GOP ticket.

In truck rampage, experts see potential shift toward cruder, deadlier acts of terror

‘I was just reading a book': Canadian cops called on black man reading C.S. Lewis in his car
Louizandre Dauphin said he was pulled over by police because somebody reported "a suspicious black man" in a parked car.
 
He said it was consensual. She said she blacked out. U-Va. had to decide: Was it assault?

He didn't hit me — but it was still abuse
COLUMN | There wasn't a name for manipulation, humiliation and controlling behavior one woman experienced in her relationship.
