	Treating Psoriasis: No One-Size-Fits-All Answers Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune disease of the skin affecting more than 7.5 million Americans. Faulty signals from a person’s immune system accelerate the growth cycle of skin cells, which can result in dry, red patches on the skin and a silvery buildup of dead skin cells resembling scales. While psoriasis is a relatively common skin disease, its physical and emotional impact on an individual is a very personal journey. Learn more
	Demystifying Chinese Investment in the United States For almost 40 years, the US-China economic relationship has been defined by rapidly growing bilateral trade, and it is only recently that Chinese foreign direct investment (FDI) in the United States has begun to make a strong mark. These investments are likely to grow significantly, establishing another important and often beneficial economic linkage that, at its best, will support and even create American jobs. Learn more
	9/11 Anniversay - 15 Years of Strategic Defeat, Dishonesty and Humiliation Since September 11, 2001, we have moved from righteous anger and clarity of purpose against the forces of terrorism in the immediate aftermath of the attacks to now sending $1,700,000,000 in cash to the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.

	Sheila Bair Called The Financial Crisis. Here's Her New Nightmare But just as in 2006 at the FDIC when she foresaw the coming mortage crisis, Bair sees a potential financial catastrophe looming in her new industry—a generation of overly indebted Americans who will be too weighed down by debt to contribute to the economy, tanking it once again. “In the aggregate, this is a huge problem,” Bair said. She was stymied at the FDIC, but here she can do something—even on a small scale. So Bair has turned her campus into a laboratory. Learn more

	Early Childhood Education Matters To Latinos And Everyone Else It is critical to ensure kids have access to safe and developmentally stimulating environments during these crucial years that will set them on a path toward a lifetime of success. This is not just a moral issue — although it is that as well — but also an economic issue. The overwhelming research shows that disadvantaged children who receive a high-quality early childhood education are more likely to earn higher wages, live healthier lives, avoid incarceration, raise stronger families and contribute to society.

	The Real Health Concerns For America The current frenzied media focus is centered on concerns over Hillary Clinton’s health issues. However, this news about Mrs. Clinton’s health may run for a 72-96 hour news cycle. Trust me, there are those in the liberal progressive media who will be enlisted to spin this story, citing pneumonia. But there is a greater health issue that should be front and center focus for us all: the health of America. Learn more
	Interview:Tomi Lahren Final Thoughts started a few years ago with my first show, on One America. It was the closing segment, and it came from whatever was on my mind that day. They started out not all being political—it was just things from daily life, things I observed, whatever caught my attention that day.
