They only scored one short-handed goal in the final minute of the game.” This week is…

Earlier today, a fighter jet was scrambled over South Florida after a plane violated restricted airspace near former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago mansion, prompting a swift military response, officials confirmed. According to the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), F-16 fighter jets were dispatched to intercept a civilian plane after it entered a Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) zone established over Palm Beach during Trump’s term in office. Officials said the plane was escorted out of the restricted area without incident. The identity of the pilot was not immediately identified, and it remains unclear whether the violation was accidental or intentional.…

The experience of hummingbirds soaring past your head at what seems like caffeine-induced, time-altering speed is like hovering in the median of a bumblebee superhighway. Vvvvvmmmm! Vvvvmmm! It is fast. And surprisingly loud. In the Mashpi cloud forest of Ecuador, there are more than 30 species of hummingbirds. And the breathlessness I experience when first beheld reminds me of the first time I saw a tropical reef, teeming with color and life that I’d seen a zillion times on the nature programs I have loved my entire life, but this time in person. I smiled reflexively then … and my…
Guest Editorial: Tom Gaitens For more than 30 years, I have been part of a movement warning that the United States is on an unsustainable fiscal path. From my early work with Empower America and Citizens for a Sound Economy to my later work with FreedomWorks, the message has been consistent. That means our political system is dependent on spending, allergic to accountability, and unwilling to confront reality.
