I don't mean to make waves or anything, but as a journalist, I am definitely opposed to the president talking about arresting journalists.

The goal in detaining these children, a former official says, is “to make sure no one ever sends their kids to the US again.” Read @samanthamichaels.bsky.social + @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social report on the administration's new family separation policy that targets children in the nation's interior.

The fabled ancient cities weren't defeated because the enemy breached the walls but because of traitors on the inside. Collusion of the PQ and Alberta separatists as US military plans promote breaking our country from the inside must be taken seriously. charlieangus.substack.com/p/this-is-ho...

The fabled ancient cities were not destroyed by the power of the siege engines, but by trickery and traitors on the inside.

It's Banned Books Week. My fellow librarians, listen carefully: your book displays should be almost exclusively writers who are alive. Yes, I know classic literature is also being banned, but most of those authors are dead. They aren't suffering financially from bans and challenges.

Of course. The Supreme Court kicked off its new term today by hearing oil companies’ attempt to throw out a lawsuit seeking to make them pay for climate damage they caused. The outcome could determine whether similar lawsuits brought by cities and counties across the country can move forward.

Sound Transit CEO's $30,000 bonus shows a big disconnect | Editorial
When private corporations award employees performance bonuses, that’s between the corporation and their shareholders. Not so with a public utility.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns, who tragically lost his 58-year-old mum and several family members to COVID-19 complications, continues advocating for vaccination. “I have asthma,” Towns said, highlighting his “high-risk status” while raising awareness of the non-mRNA NUVAXOVID vaccine.
A screenshot of a Forbes article titled "Karl-Anthony Towns Who Lost Mom To COVID-19 Talks Of Value Of Vaccine." The article is written by Bruce Y. Lee and shows a publication date from early October 2026. Below the headline, a photograph captures NBA player Karl-Anthony Towns sitting at a press conference microphone wearing a white New York Knicks jersey. He is looking forward with a serious expression against a blue backdrop covered in repeating logos for Chase and the New York Knicks. A caption below the photo identifies him as the Knicks center speaking at a recent Media Day.
