    We can and we should do better than this. It's predictable now that every confirmation hearing is going to be an overblown, politicized circus. And it's because we've accepted a bad new theory about how our three branches of government should work.

    more than 70 years ago, Allied troops stormed the shores of France during World War II. Today, we honor the 160,000 troops who fought their way onto the beaches and we tell the story of one Nebraskan whose work made it possible.

    Remembering Andrew Jackson Higgins on D-Day
    Our enemies hated him. Hitler complained he was the “New Noah.” For us and our allies, though, Higgins was a hero. Eisenhower raved: “Andrew Higgins is the man who won the war for us.”

    Facebook is a really big and powerful platform. Their decisions on how to police speech will have far-reaching consequences. That’s why I asked Mark Zuckerberg in today's hearing to define “hate speech.” It is a hard question and an important conversation.

    Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. persevered, even unto death, in asserting the god-given rights of all Americans. Read the full text of his final speech, here - it will give you chills: May we never lose sight of his message.

    He single-handedly saved millions from starvation, but most people haven’t heard of him. Today we honor Norman Borlaug, the ag pioneer who was born in 1914.

    A Tribute to Dr. Norman Borlaug
    He earned a Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the Congressional Gold Medal. But unless you grew up walking fields, you might not know much about Dr. Borlaug.
