Iceland canceled its 2025 whaling season, sparing hundreds of fin whales. Iceland’s only active whaling company, Hvalur said it would not participate in the summer whaling season for the 2nd year in a row due to low demand and financial concerns. Wish it was about conservation but I'll take it!

An extraordinary new policy from the Defense Department that equates basic reporting methods to criminal activity has prompted a revolt among Pentagon journalists that could leave the nation's largest agency and the world's largest military without a press corps.

'Without precedent': Virtually all news outlets reject restrictive Pentagon press policy

The policy would force news organizations to refrain from publishing material not approved by the military. Media lawyers say it violates the 1st Amendment.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.
