After a few days campaigning in safe conservative territory, President Donald Trump on Saturday takes his midterm tour into Ohio, a battleground state that's home to one of the top-tier Senate races this cycle.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth indicated on Saturday that some U.S. service members could be redeployed from Europe to the Western Hemisphere as the Trump administration ramps up its deadly campaign against drug cartels in South America. “Well, we're definitely expanding our presence and our footprint in Central and South America with partners, and because of...
An Oklahoma federal judge ruled Friday that warrantless searches using AI-powered surveillance camera data, such as what Flock Safety's hallmark technology collects, may violate the Fourth Amendment without adequate probable cause. “Freedom from persistent, dragnet-style surveillance while in public is not a foreign concept in our society, and it is a reasonable expectation that society...
The Trump administration is moving ahead with big changes to Head Start, the federal early childhood education program that serves low-income families, to the outcry of advocates who say the proposals will limit access to the program, currently serving 700,000 students. Interested parties have until Tuesday to submit their thoughts to the federal government on...
Walk into any grocery store in Queen Anne’s County or drive up to a gas pump anywhere in Maryland, and you immediately feel a heavy weight in your chest. This is happening all over our great nation. It does not matter whether you lean Republican, Democrat, independent, or completely unaffiliated — the checkout counter is […]
We’ve arrived at a rare intersection of human history. The past isn’t safely behind us in textbooks. Instead, it’s actively colliding with our present. From the halls of Washington to the fractured centers of global power, the foundations of the modern world are cracking simultaneously. We’re not experiencing a minor shift or a passing political […]
I still remember going to baseball and hockey games as a child, leaning way over the railing with my glove. When a foul ball rattled into our section or a deflected puck cleared the glass, it was finders keepers. That old tradition gave fans a real, physical connection to the game, transforming us from mere […]
An accurate blood pressure reading is the most vital baseline data point in modern medicine. It dictates heart care, surgery safety, and long-term drug prescriptions. Yet, the automated blood pressure monitors used in almost every clinic and home have a painful flaw. The very machines we trust to track our health are poorly programmed, routinely […]
For decades, millions of Americans have strapped on fitness trackers, driven by a singular, obsessive daily goal: hitting 10,000 steps. Missing that metric feels like a failure of personal willpower. Public health campaigns routinely treat it as the gold standard for longevity and cardiovascular fitness. Yet, as the Department of Health and Human Services undergoes […]
Growing up in Guntur, India, structural inequality was not an abstraction — it was the street I grew up on. For centuries, the caste system fixed entire communities into place at birth, and the doors that mattered — schools, government jobs, land — opened or closed accordingly. India’s fix was Reservations, an affirmative action system […]
“Some people did something.” That was Rep. Ilan Omar’s (D-MN) description of what happened on Sept. 11, 2001, in New York, at the Pentagon, and in western Pennsylvania. The approach taken by one of America’s biggest public school systems is similar. Ahead of the 25th anniversary of the terrorist murders of nearly 3,000 people on […]
Abraham Lincoln once observed that we all declare for liberty, but in using the same word, we do not all mean the same thing. The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep’s throat, he said, and the sheep thanks him as a liberator while the wolf denounces him as a destroyer of liberty. Words matter. […]
