Get woke, go broke: New "queer" 'Doctor Who' suffers worst ratings in TV series' history
Woke activists today often like to hearken back to nostalgic media from the 1960s; what they consider the golden era or genesis moment of far-left movements in British and US history. These were the days when being a progressive was considered "counter-culture" and cool, with every major rock star and celebrity tapping into youth angst and hippie philosophy. The progressive shift led to considerable social instability in the 1970s.

Mediterranean marine worm has developed eyes "as big as millstones"
The Vanadis bristle worm has eyes as big as millstones - relatively speaking. Indeed, if our eyes were proportionally as big as the ones of this Mediterranean marine worm, we would need a big sturdy wheelbarrow and brawny arms to lug around the extra 100kg. As a set, the worm's eyes weigh about twenty times as much as the rest of the animal's head and seem grotesquely out of place on this tiny and transparent marine critter. As if two giant, shiny red balloons have been strapped to its body.

New paper finds effect of human-caused carbon emissions on climate is 'non-discernible'
Every now and then, a giant of modern science should be allowed to express himself in language that we all understand. In the informative Climate: The Movie, the 2022 Nobel physics laureate Dr. John Clauser thundered: "I assert there is no connection whatsoever between climate change and CO2 - it's all a crock of crap, in my opinion." While not expressing himself in such forthright terms, the Greek scientist Professor Demetris Koutsoyiannis might agree.

Letter: Why isn’t anyone talking about Julian Assange?
There’s been much talk about the Julian Assange trial for anyone looking, but not much coverage in the mainstream media. Anyone even moderately following this case is aware by now that the allegations have been shown to be utterly false or irrelevant, while the burning heart of the matter remains: Should journalists be jailed for exposing U.S. war crimes? The implications of this are overwhelming for reporters worldwide, and go the heart of democracy and free speech.

Blake Morris: The Man Who Could Take Down Simcha Felder

A major war in the Middle East would be catastrophic, yet that is the direction we are heading. With President Trump withdrawing from the nuclear accord with Iran, we are left with a frightening scenario.

That would set in motion a quick war led by the United States and Israel.

Article: What Does Trump's Pardon of Sheriff Arpaio Signify?

It wasn't a violation of an existing law. It was a direct repudiation and failure to obey the court.

Article: I, Hillary Rodham Clinton: Haiti's Pay-to-Play IHRC
From its inception, and well before it made $10 billion of earthquake aid money disappear, Bill and Hillary Clinton's Interim Haiti Recovery Commission (IHRC) was a vicious joke on Haitians. The original name, Commission Inte'rimaire pour la Reconstruction d'HaĂƒÂŻti, should have been simply translated as Interim Commission for the Reconstruction of Haiti. After all, it was the commission that was temporary, not Haiti.
