ICE is bigger and worse than ever, although the major media have stopped reporting on it. Not only is ICE’s reign of terror intimidating many undocumented immigrants and their families — preventing them from seeking the healthcare they need or attending school or going to court — but ICE is also sweeping into its maw many American citizens who are protesting Trump’s police state.

While sitting down with Vice President JD Vance on his HBO show, Bill Maher expressed openness to voting for a Republican in the 2028 electi

Well, he's gone off the deep end. Bill Maher built his early career on attacking conservative orthodoxy, religion, and nationalism. But now he criticizes the progressive left, youth culture, “wokeness” and DEI initiatives. He now says he's open to voting for the Republican Party which is now basically the MAGA Party. He also has nostalgia for the "good old days" like he wants to Make America Great Again. He should just say he's a trumper and put on the red hat.

Opinion | That Bible verse on Giants players’ Pride caps says the opposite of what they think

Genesis 9:12-16, the verse some players inscribed on their hats, teaches the opposite of what these de facto anti-LGBTQ activists wanted us
