The small coastal village of Newtok, Alaska has secured more than $15 million in funding to begin relocating households to safer ground inland. The funding is part of the $1.3 trillion spending bill signed Friday. This amount, however, is still just a fraction of what’s required to relocate the whole village. Located along the banks […]
I’ve always felt like a really good job would be one where I got paid to watch TV all day, and on Thursday I got to do exactly that. The catch was that I was stuck on one channel: NRATV, the National Rifle Association’s 24-hour propaganda network. Be careful what you wish for, folks. Two […]
Reactions around the world ranged following the news Thursday night that conservative hawk John Bolton will replace H.R. McMaster as National Security Adviser.

While governments in countries like Israel hailed […]
A viral video claiming Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel impregnated a teen and made her get an abortion years ago is a hoax, says the woman behind it.

Almost every state along the Atlantic coast — 12 out of 14 — has offshore wind potential that exceeds its current electricity needs, according to a new study.

On Friday, Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) went on Fox News and tried to justify the decision made by Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee to end the committee’s Russia probe and release a final report. It did not go well. Wenstrup argued there is no further need to investigate the Trump campaign, because while a […]

The spending bill passed by Congress on Thursday allocates more than a billion dollars to construct President Donald Trump’s border wall through the Rio Grande Valley. But there is one key stipulation: none of those funds can be used for construction in the Santa Ana Wildlife Refuge. The administration had previously begun preparations for constructing […]
Student activists across the country are ready to fight for solutions to gun violence during the March for Our Lives on Saturday, which was organized by students who survived the school shooting in Parkland, Florida.

Ronna McDaniel, Donald Trump’s handpicked Republican National Committee chair, charged on Friday that Democrats want to win back Congress in 2018 so they can shut down the government “as much as possible.” But if that were actually the Democrats’ goal, they literally could have done so hours before. Congress passed an omnibus spending bill with […]
The European Union last week released a list of U.S. goods and products it intended to target in retaliation for President Trump’s aggressive international trade announcement. The list focused on items from the U.S. Heartland, as well as the South and Appalachia, areas the president had promised to revitalize through industrial job growth. A week […]
As the spending bill to keep the government open heads to Senate for a vote, President Donald Trump has signaled he won’t vote for it because Congress has failed to solve a problem he created. I am considering a VETO of the Omnibus Spending Bill based on the fact that the 800,000 plus DACA recipients […]
During a Fox & Friends interview on Friday, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) celebrated the appointment of John Bolton as President Trump’s national security adviser because it means “taking the gloves off” — and possibly “preemptive military force.” “He has a world view that I think will help the president make us safer,” Graham said. “He’s […]
The Chinese government released prominent Tibetan blogger Drukar Gyal, better known by his pen name Shokjang, late Tuesday after three years in prison, and likely torture, for his political writing.

At the time, despite a tone-deaf statement from Simon, Michigan State seemed to finally be reckoning with its role in enabling Nassar’s sexual abuse of more […]
It’s hard to imagine that anyone could have expected this Saturday’s upcoming March For Our Lives. When Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School was visited upon by the same gun violence that had wrecked so many other lives, in so many different places, you wouldn’t have been thought a fool to imagine that these tragic events […]
National security adviser H.R. McMaster is the latest Trump administration casualty.

Counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway offered her advice to a group of millennials Thursday, encouraging them to just eat more junk food instead of turning to opioids. “On our college campuses, your folks are reading the labels, they won’t put any sugar in their body, they don’t eat carbs anymore, and they’re very, very […]
