A massive ‘Tallboy’ bomb dropped during a British Royal Air Force attack on a Nazi warship in 1945 has exploded underwater while being defused in northern Poland. No one was hurt, but buildings ashore were shaken by the blast. Navy sappers were trying to neutralize the 5.4-ton device – found last year at the bottom of the Piast Canal, which connects the Baltic Sea with the Oder River – by burning out its explosives, but something went wrong and the bomb detonated. Fatalities and injuries were avoided because the divers were already at a “safe distance” when the device went off, […]

Tensions along Israel’s southern border with Hamas-controlled Gaza were ratcheted up earlier this month, after Washington announced that Israel and the UAE had agreed to normalize relations.

One of the loudest and most aggressive conservative advocacy groups of the past decade is asking Americans to calm down and stop talking about politics, if only for a day.

Dubbed “Celebrate Americans,” the initiative proposes setting aside Labor Day as a politics-free day of national harmony.

So, the Federal Reserve is printing more money for the government to spend than the US government is collecting in taxes. “The myth is that the US economy was strong before Covid.

In fact, the opposite is true, the body of evidence disproving this conspiracy theory is both large […]

In delaying any public release of Donald Trump’s financial records on Thursday, the Supreme Court also handed itself a major victory. The loser could be our democratic system of government.

The court’s majority found that rigorous judicial oversight is required to ensure that Congress does not harass or overburden presidents with politically motivated demands for information.
