Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

Fukushima at 15: The fallout continues Officials claim Japan's worst-ever nuclear disaster is dealt with. Try telling that to the people.

On March 11, 2011, three nuclear reactors melted down at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant, killing 20,000 people and becoming one of the worst nuclear disasters in Japan's history.

Fifteen years later, officials claim that the disaster has been dealt with. The residents tell a different story.

Who is demanding the imposition of sharia law in America?

I can't think of anyone calling for that, much less enough of a groundswell that it warrants an actual response from Congress.

Who's pushing this, Mike? Name names.

BREAKING: Donald Trump just betrayed every fan who’s been exploited by Ticketmaster.

This fine is less than 1% of Live Nation’s revenue last year AND lets them continue to rip off fans with a 15% β€œTicketmaster Tax." It's wrong.

We need to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation.

Meta has deliberately cut civil rights and civil liberties out of its calculus. As an internal Meta memo reasoned, β€œMany civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.” The company presumably sees a business opportunity in the ongoing assault on American democracy. That’s where Mark Zuckerberg, Meta’s chief executive, is wrong: We are paying attention, and we understand clearly that this technology is part of that very same assault on our rights. We are always ready to fight, and we will continue to defend everyone’s rights β€” from both the government and Big Tech.

It was recently leaked that Meta plans to quietly roll out smart glasses equipped with facial recognition while civil liberties groups like ours are busy dealing with the Trump administration.

They're wrong. We can walk and demand Meta halt production on these creepy glasses at the same time.

trump just told the world that Iran somehow fired U.S. Tomahawk missiles at a girls’ school.

It’s either staggering incompetence or a blatant lie about a potential war crime.

I wrote about why this could finally topple his presidency. Read it here:

Boy, 7, dies of brain condition caused by world’s most contagious disease β€” years after he had it as a baby Even those who make a full recovery from the initial infection face a lurking threat: a deadly disease that remains latent until striking β€” and killing β€” years later.

This should end his career.

But it won’tβ€”not in 2026.

Even soβ€”call, complain, speak up, push back.

And Dominari is central to so much of Don Jr. and Eric's latest business, um, endeavors.

The worst cabinet in American history And it's not even close.

Bill would require school coaches to be trained in CPR and AED Proposed legislation would require Minnesota middle and high school coaches to be CPR- and AED-trained.

One parent who testified, Danielle Tirevold, who is a registered nurse, recognized her daughter was in cardiac arrest and said she performed CPR for so long her knees bled until an AED arrived to shock her back to life. She said she had to correct the first responders about proper AED placement.

Deleting this because I've been told this is part of a farewell meal for departing soldiers.

Fine, read the piece -- six figures for a piano for the Army chief of staff's private residence, more money on furniture in a year than the Pentagon previously spent in a decade, tons of waste.
