Between Iran, ICE and Epstein, it’s easy to forget the regime is still murdering civilians on the high seas. Four more boats destroyed in as many days.

Million Dollar Shot, Million Dollar Doc
On April 14, 1993, Don Calhoun entered Chicago lore with the "Million Dollar Shot." 30 years later, his son is building on his dreams — and the legacy of his late brother.

The Constitution and a court order both say that the Everglades detention facility must allow people access to their attorneys. Instead of complying, guards are cutting off people’s phone access and beating people who speak up.

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'" These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now. Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

Immigrants weren’t just filling existing jobs; they were helping create them. That’s Econ 101: jobs are not a fixed pie. More people means more customers, more demand, more businesses expanding, and yes, more hiring.

Incumbent German electricity suppliers said in 1993 that renewables could not provide more than 4% of electricity in the long run. In 2025, renewables provided 55.9% of Germany's electricity — 14 times the predicted ceiling.

Who knew what? When did they know it? How close were they to Trump's inner circle? And can anyone within or around the orbit of this regime be trusted to put the interests of the American public above their own pocketbook? It is maddening that we even need to ask these questions.
