Michigan athletics projects balanced budget in 2025-26, thanks to $15M assist from school

Seven people were shot in an Oklahoma City bar last night as fans gathered to watch an NBA playoff game, but you might not have heard about it because it’s the sort of thing that happens every single day in America. It’s long past time we did something about that.

Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence
National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety.
This won’t go well—we love our parks.
