In a little-noticed webpage update, the Environmental Protection Agency has announced a plan to decommission its online web archive at the end of the year, a move that would wipe tens of thousands of publicly available environmental resources from the web.

Just crazy reporting by NYT—Kushner and Witkoff making a secret deal with a sanctioned Russian company to control a huge gas project in the US. Good for this guy for getting the heck out and talking to the Times
JUST POSTED: A Russian energy giant has secretly moved to acquire a position in a massive Alaska gas project. Its part of talks between Witkoff/Kushner & Putin. But CEO of US company resigns after learning of Russian money in the project. A wowzer of a story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

DON’T BE AFRAID, BE PREPARED. AG Todd Blanche was asked a simple question: Will the DOJ try to block states from certifying election results? He couldn’t give a simple NO. Instead, he left the door open to hypothetical scenarios. @marcelias.bsky.social

Christianity Today has seen about half its staff quit or laid off in the last 14 months. Former employees told me that new business leaders have intervened in editorial decisions and are effectively abandoning the outlet's commitment to independent journalism. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/21/u...

American Authoritarianism is in full force. The WH has assumed control over every aspect of grant making. Notice of Funding Opportunities were reduced. This is b/c political appointees are censoring them. Fewer NOFOs = fewer grants on diseases of interest. 🧪 washingtonian.com/2026/10/13/t...

The UN verified that at least 328 civilians were killed and 2,105 injured in September 2026, an 85% increase compared with September 2025. And who does the so-called president blame? Ukraine, of course. news.un.org/en/story/202...

As the Trump regime sues LA officials for not disqualifying 20,000 people DHS has labeled as non-citizens based upon their screening tool, it is good to remember that DHS used to same tool to identify over 15,000 non-citizen voters in Nevada. Complete checks revealed that ALL of them are citizens.

Humiliating and dangerous: Trump has now finally just made America an ally of the Kremlin and is aiding Putin in his war against an American friend and partner. Shameful betrayal of a US friend, and pathetic submission to a US enemy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

IRS refuses to publish report. Ahead of the midterm elections, the Trump regime is withholding detailed information that illustrates how King Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act hurt millions of Americans. The data from the IRS was originally scheduled to be released in July & updated in September.

Inside an ICE facility, women talked about the men whose 911 calls landed them there — the boyfriends or husbands who had beat them, choked them, threatened deportation. “I had suffered from domestic violence,” one woman said. “But the one who ended up in trouble was me.”

“There’s just a lot of frustration.” For a decade, farmers and ranchers have been a core part of President Trump’s coalition. But as the impact of his tariffs and the war in Iran fuel discontent in agricultural communities, economic anxieties are testing the loyalty of rural voters to the GOP.
