Has misconduct stopped mattering, or is it another case of amnesia?
The Center for Biological Diversity sued the state of Florida today to protect the Florida Everglades from dangerous air pollution released by the massive immigrant detention facility in Big Cypress National Preserve, cruelly named “Alligator Alcatraz.”
The Center is suing the Florida Division of Emergency Management over substantial, unpermitted pollution from diesel generators and other…
Since Donald Trump’s reelection, progressive and moderate Democrats have spent a lot of time fighting over differences in their approaches to campaign messaging and strategy. But the differences that matter most are those that occur after an election, when it’s time to govern.

In October 2005, days after Israeli forces killed a commander of the Hamas-aligned militant group Islamic Jihad in the West Bank, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke out unequivocally. “As the imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map,” said Iran’s newly elected president, referring to Ruhollah Khomeini, the late ayatollah and leader of the 1979 Islamic Revolution. “Anybody who recognizes Israel will…
But they’re so dumb they don’t even know they’re doing it.
In an interview on Fox News, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin blamed Democrats’ refusal to fund ICE for the mass shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego on Monday and said places of worship should “hire their own security.”

On July 1, perhaps the most punitive bathroom ban in the country is set to go into effect in Idaho.

Sometimes, life just sucks. Wars plague the earth, grandparents get sick, love is lost and so on. Often, everything seems to go wrong simultaneously. My family says hardship rolls in like the tide: three big waves at a time.
It’s easy to think, “I’d be happy if this never happened,” or “I’d be a happy person if bad things stopped happening to me.”
Though common, this thinking is inherently…

When Christian Nationalist firebrand and Reformed Pastor Doug Wilson of Christ Church, Moscow, Idaho, provocatively stated in a 2025 interview with CNN that “Women are people that people come out of,” it commanded attention from both critics and fellow travelers.
Wilson holds steadfastly to a theology of “biblical patriarchy” – the idea that God divinely instituted the rule of male leadership in…
