The Trump administration has killed proposed regulations for sewage sludge contaminated with Pfas and spread on farmland as fertilizer, a practice that has sickened farmers, destroyed their livelihoods, killed livestock, polluted water supplies, and poisoned meat and food products sold to the public.
“Yet again, the Trump administration has sold out our endangered wildlife to the highest bidder,” said one biodiversity advocate after the US Department of Interior, in a Friday news dump, issued two new policy changes that would weaken the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and make it easier for corporate polluters to prioritize their own bottom lines over habitat protection. The US Fish and…
The Montclair Township Council voted unanimously Tuesday to pull all of the town’s money — about $91.1 million — out of Citizens Bank, protesting the bank’s financing of the private companies that run federal immigration detention centers.
An art exhibition by Victor “Marka27” Quiñonez, whose work comments on issues facing U.S. Latinos, seemed like a natural fit for the campus of the University of North Texas in Denton, north of Dallas. Nearly a quarter of the students are Hispanic and the show focused on Quiñonez’s dual cultural identity, as someone born in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, and raised in East Dallas, Texas.
In an effort to smear the Democratic Party on The Five, Fox News host Kaleigh McEnany explained to their viewers how the Republican party is a Christian nationalism cult, and nothing less is acceptable that Fox News promotes.
Here’s what we know: On the morning of February 28, 2026, the first day of “Operation Epic Fury,” the United States bombed the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ elementary school in Minab, a small city in southern Iran. At least 168 people were killed — the majority of them girls between the ages of 7 and 12. More than 100 children and staff were wounded. By any measure, it was one of the deadliest single strikes on civilians in the history of U.S. military operations in recent decades.
The physics of being hit by a tall car are gruesome. With a standard sedan, which has a hood height of around two and a half feet, a pedestrian who gets struck straight-on gets flung onto the hood. While perilously acrobatic, hoods are designed to absorb impacts and cushion the pedestrian’s fall.
The EU Right to Repair Directive takes effect July 31, 2026. Manufacturers must offer repair at fair prices. The US has no equivalent federal law. Here is what changed.
The Trump administration’s haphazard “AI-first"approach to warfare has already killed countless innocents and is setting the stage for a world where no human is ever to blame for the deaths.
US GDP growth is now driven almost exclusively by rising tech spending. If this starts to drop, the US economy will enter recession very quickly — even if tech investments decline only by a little bit, say 4 to 6 per cent, as happened after much smaller tech booms in the 1960s and during the 2009 recession.
Seriously. Not dystopian science fiction or a new novel by an AI version of George Orwell. Actual corporations — what America’s first Supreme Court Justice, John Marshall, in 1819 called “an artificial being, invisible, intangible, and existing only in contemplation of law” — are today voting in elections for everything from the mayor and town council to referendums on corporate taxes and limits on corporate behavior.
Everything else aside, we do not call soccer football. Instead, ‘football’ is what we call the worst and most boring and most physically injurious sport in the entire world, known to you as American Football.
On Tuesday, May 19, the U.S. House passed H.R. 2616, the “Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act,” by a vote of 217-198. The bill would hand the Trump administration enormous leverage to strip federal funding from any school that “teaches or advances concepts” related to transgender people, codifying into federal law the anti-trans definitions from Trump’s executive order 14168, “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism.” It would also require public schools to forcibly out transgender students to their parents before using their pronouns or chosen names. The bill is significant on its own terms for the harm it would inflict on transgender youth if it became law. But what made Tuesday’s vote especially notable was the eight Democrats who joined every Republican to pass it—the largest Democratic defection on any standalone anti-trans bill of this Congress.
U.S. officials also complained about the length of time it’s taking for the Carney government to decide whether it will continue with the full purchase of the F-35 stealth fighter.
General comment: You’d prefer we simply ban your content? ‘Cause we can do that if you’d prefer. It’s not as if … Well, let’s move to a specific comment to finish that sentence.
But Trump’s FCC has decided that this system is no longer working for them. Last month, they released a public notice announcing that they would like to force the TVOMB to change their ratings. Why?
GitGuardian researcher Guillaume Valadon, fresh off a recent talk on Kubernetes secret leaks, found the public repository on May 14, and told The Register that he “quickly understood that the leak was bad and that time was running out. A national agency having 844 MB of production infrastructure material in a public GitHub repository for six months is as serious as a secrets leak gets.”
