By Larry Klayman WND June 16, 2017 The shooting this week in Alexandria, Virginia, was a tragedy.

By Larry Klayman Newsmax June 15, 2017 Yesterday, the original Batman, actor Adam West, was laid to rest. As a young boy, I regularly watched the television series, which spewed both humor as well as humility and morality.
