- by Sophie HurwitzEarly Saturday morning, a woman whose husband is detained at ICE’s Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, drove nearly two hours to visit him. She was turned away at the gate. GEO Group—the multibillion-dollar ICE contractor that runs Delaney Hall—had cancelled family visitation for the day. She sat on a curb, cried, and drove home. Throughout […]
- by Sophie HurwitzScott Pelley spent 37 years at CBS News, only to be fired last week after coming into conflict with Free Press founder Bari Weiss, who took control of the network last October.

- by Alex NguyenWe’re less than a week away from the first match of the FIFA Men’s World Cup, with tensions mounting over the United States’ role as one of the host countries, and it remains to be seen just how the Department of Homeland Security will respond to what it deems threats—or how active ICE will be […]
- by Sam Van PykerenWhile watching Madonna’s recent Times Square takeover—sponsored by the gay “dating” app Grindr—it struck me. And I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Something about Madonna’s performance made me immediately think of Nancy Pelosi. (Do with that what you will.) Both women are legendary trailblazers in their own right, foundational to their respective worlds, and yet […]

- by Alex NguyenOpenAI and its chatbot ChatGPT’s “success has not been earned; the rise of OpenAI is attributable to a web of deceit and the exploitation of users (including Floridians), leveraging their data and safety to boost OpenAI’s market value at unacceptable costs.” Earlier this week, Florida, a state led by Gov. Ron DeSantis’ right-wing, pro-business administration, […]

- by John AmatoPres. Donald Trump couldn't handle simple questions from Meet the Press host Kristen Welker asking him for proof to confirm his lies about stolen elections, dirty cops, and January 6th insurrectionists so he attacked Kristen Welker and then stormed off the set. Trump got so bronzed up before making his Meet the Press appearance, the […]
- by HeatherGrandpa sundowner with more revisionist history on this Sunday's Meet the Press.

- by HeatherWe all know they could care less about any of Platner's flaws that might make left leaning voters move away from him. I have no idea how the voters in Maine are going to decide who their candidate for US Senate should be, and whether recent reporting by the New York Times is going to […]
- by RattBari Weiss is destroying an institution and she doesn’t care. Her little speech about “trust” reminded me that for wingers, trust is a one way street.

- by Oliver WillisFor almost 100 years, CBS has been one of the most well-known and respected news media brands in the United States.

- by Jason EasleyHouse and Senate Republicans are livid with Trump and (finally) asserting their power. Trump's ballroom money is dead. The weaponization fund is toast, and money for his battleships could be next.

- by Left WisdomHarrison Ford made a good solid statement about American Enemy Number 1. The only thing I disagree about is that trump has a plan, I just know that the plan he has is not FOR the American People. In fact, I call him American Enemy Number 1 because his plan seems to be to make […]
- by Left Wisdom**horrible things will happen if the SC continues to reject his playing with tariffs**Everybody by now knows that trump has been playing with tarrifs; as far as anybody observing can tell, getting up in the morning and suddenly yelling with great enthusiasm that he hopes will convince the nation that THIS is the salvation for […]

- The Trump administration five months ago launched an energy blockade against Cuba, coming on top of the over six-decade-long embargo, the longest in U.S. history.
