An otter swims right by me as I waded the River Bride in Blackpool this morning. I was so caught by surprise that I could not get my phone camera working. The OPW and Cork City Council plan to bury this entire stretch of river underground. Jack Chambers gave it the go ahead. #cork

WARNING: The Ellison family is about to own CBS News AND CNN. A judge just cleared the deal. Closing: days away. When one family controls what tens of millions watch, democracy loses a watchdog. Independent media isn't a luxury. It's your last line of defense.

Five weeks until the midterms and Republicans are doing everything they can to hold back a Democratic wave. But given the gerrymanders, the political malpractice, and how completely out of touch this party has become with voters, will it be enough?

So what if you just want to serve your country in the military now and don’t want Christian nationalism shoved down your throat and pushed on you by military leadership? I guess you are out of luck. Because that was our military for the entire history of the country until now.

Pretty clear Hegseth’s primary mission is to transform the military ideologically by overtly indoctrinating troops with Christian nationalism and apocalyptic holy war messaging while rooting out those who don’t want to participate and just want to serve their country admirably.
