2016 in review

2016 has been a good year for political writers and late night comedians due to the presidential election and the surprise of Trump's victory over Clinton. There have also been other events that have happened in 2016, so here is a list of my favorite news stories from this past year (in no particular order). This short list is only a scratch on the surface of what all has happened this past year, nonetheless, it gets the job done. I hope you enjoy reading this and Happy New Year! Catch ya on the flip side.

Univ. of Chicago pushes back on trigger warnings, safe spaces
I wrote about this one already, but I liked this story because it somewhat restored my faith in American colleges and universities. Trigger warnings and safe spaces are only making Millennials softer than they already are (talking about my generation).

Is Society Destroying the Kind of Women Men Want?
This article accurately describes trends in my generation that are annoying to me, particularly the part about self-esteem. All I ask is that you read the article before assuming I'm sexist.

Brexit
That link is the best article I could find for Brexit.

Trump wins presidency, defeats Clinton in historic election upset
Trump's victory over Clinton was a good surprise to me.

Our Founding Fathers are wiser than many people give them credit for.

I just thought this article was entertaining. The media won't admit that Obama is trying to sabotage Trump's presidency, but clearly the Russians see it.


Nico Rosberg finishes second, wins first Formula One title




Stephen Curry wins MVP for second straight season
If you couldn't tell by now, I'm a Stephen Curry and Golden State Warriors fan. I'm not going to talk about the Finals though.
