Donald Trump delivered a strangely low-energy speech on Monday at a factory in York, Pennsylvania. While the crowd at Precision Custom Components started off cheering at the former president’s compliments about Pennsylvania and promises to bolster American manufacturing, any initial enthusiasm appeared to wane as Trump proceeded through his remarks in a monotone reading voice. “Kamala puts America last, I put America first,” Trump said, sounding completely dejected. He frowned as the crowd cheered. For once, the former president was actually able to stay more or less on topic (although his talking points were still devoid of facts or actual...

An “undercover” Mike Lindell is running around the Democratic National Convention arguing with Democrats. Like other right-wingers, including Matt Walsh, the MyPillow CEO has found his way into the DNC sporting a disguise: shaving off his legendary mustache.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

Being a liberal means complaining about the Democrats. It’s as axiomatic a law of life as the fatalism of Red Sox fans. More specifically, it means complaining about Democratic messaging: the weakness, the confusion, the inconsistency, the bajillions of opportunities missed when Republicans do something nuts, the backpedaling, the hem hawing, the failure to state principles forthrightly—is that enough? Believe me, I could go on.Well, I don’t know who exactly is running this convention, in terms of deciding who speaks when and what they say and approving all those little film intermezzos, but whoever you are: kudos. This year’s Democratic...

While Kamala Harris was making her keynote speech at the Democratic National Convention, Donald Trump was melting down on Truth Social. The former president and convicted felon promised to give a “Play by Play” of her speech, and it ended up being a long string of whining. “Too many ‘Thank yous,’ too rapidly said, what’s going on with her?” Trump began. It didn’t get any better from there. “She’s talking about how great San Francisco was before she destroyed it, probably not a good idea!” Trump posted, accompanied by a video disparaging Harris’s record as a prosecutor in the city....

Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo has repeatedly been saying this week that Democrats have been pushing to register “massive lines of illegals” to vote in Texas. As it turns out, she never did any actual reporting on the topic. The Texas Department of Public Safety debunked Bartiromo’s claims, with Sergeant William Lockridge, a spokesperson for the department, calling the claims “simply false” and “kind of racist” in a statement Tuesday to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Brady Gray, the chairman of the Parker County GOP, also said such reports were “erroneous” after investigating Bartiromo’s claims.Bartiromo first brought up the alleged voter...

Are people getting more high maintenance or is it just me? One thing that you can't deny is that CERTAIN people require a lot more TLC and attention, on the daily and especially during trying times. This applies to both platonic relationships and romantic. We usually call these people high maintenance because, well, they usually require (or demand!) all of your efforts and then some to be satisfied. These characteristics are closely linked to their zodiac sign temperament, so read on to see who is on the list!

As the world experiences what could be its hottest year on record, the right-wing groups behind the Project 2025 policy road map for a second Trump administration want to supercharge oil and gas drilling, claw back regulations and research funding, and “eradicate climate change references from absolutely everywhere,” according to one training video reported last week by ProPublica.Yet a senior staffer at one of the groups that’s contributed to Project 2025, the Center for Renewing America, or CRA, seems to have some doubts. In previously unreported private remarks, Micah Meadowcroft—who served in the Environmental Protection Agency during the Trump administration,...

The mantis shrimp is one tough customer. Beautiful and deadly are two words you don’t typically use to describe shrimp, but the mantis shrimp is definitely in a class of its own; earning a reputation as the ‘savage boxer of the sea’ and one of the most fearsome creatures in the ocean. And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.

When I learned the brown tarantula is also native to Missouri, I gasped, and when I say I'm not too fond of spiders of any genus is an understatement. It's psychological. They have too many legs.

Beneath the deluge of election news, two remarkable statistics made smaller headlines this past week. First, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration confirmed that last month was the hottest July on record, following the hottest June on record, in what is so far the hottest year on record. Second, the U.S. Energy Information Administration reported that, in the first half of 2024, the U.S. added more electrical generation capacity than they have in two decades: 20.2 gigawatts, with another 42.6 gigawatts planned for the second half of the year.You might be inclined to interpret this as good news: After all,...
