Dozens rescued, more than 1,000 displaced, at least 3 still missing after storm devastates Western Alaska

Winds over 100 mph and record tidal surges were reported in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta as the remnants of Typhoon Halong hammered the Bering Sea coast over the weekend.

This magazine is old enough to have fought McCarthyism the first time. We know from experience that America’s witch-hunt fever has been broken before. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

We Defeated McCarthyism Before. We Can Do It Again.

It’s easy to feel despair about what looks like a new age of government censorship. But being around for 160 years gives you perspective.

Markwayne Mullin: "There are 35 million people that live below the poverty line inside the US. There are over 70 million people signed up for Medicaid. Now you're gonna tell me there's not room to make cuts?"

Do you know someone who lives in a red state? Ask them to contact their senators and ask them to vote against the cuts to Medicaid and Medicare

A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference.

But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.

Sen. Padilla pushed to ground, handcuffed for demanding DHS not lie

Forcibly removing a sitting US senator, as they opposed the president's immigration policy, is a part of a broader slide.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”
