Hard to overstate how big of a disaster the destruction of that dam is.

Modeling your activism off of Trump, Stone, and O'keefe is a poor life choice. Enjoy the limelight...

The GOP attack on voting and elections is massive and ongoing.

This is making certain people in Florida very nervous...

Canada reports that massive wildfires have burned 1400% more acreage than is normal for this time of year.
