On September 11, 2017, Jemele Hill tweeted, “Donald Trump is a white supremacist who has largely surrounding himself w/ other white supremacists.” And, even though the 99-character pronouncement came a few weeks after Trump referred to a group of white nationalist protesters as “very fine people,” pearls were firmly clutched. A vocal faction of conservatives, including the president and his then-press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, called on ESPN to fire Hill. They publicly censured her instead, calling Hill’s actions “inappropriate” and strong-arming the SC6 co-host into issuing a half-hearted apology to the Worldwide Leader. Five months—and one tweet criticizing Cowboys’ owner […]

CNN anchor Brianna Keilar on Tuesday got fed up with Trump campaign senior advisor Mercedes Schlapp during a heated exchange on mail-in voting, eventually telling the longtime lobbyist that their conversation was “pointless” because she was “just saying a bunch of crap.” Keilar, who in recent weeks has held various pro-Trump figures’ feet to the fire in combative interviews, brought on Schlapp to talk about President Donald Trump’s sudden pivot to encouraging Floridians to vote by mail after baselessly warning for months that mail-in ballots are rife with fraud. “Whether you call it Vote by Mail or Absentee Voting, in Florida […]
What to do about Lake Placid? For weeks, Dave and Nancy Nathan had been debating whether to proceed with a long-planned family trip to a lodge there next month, marking his 80th birthday. “It looked dreamy, mountains and lakes,” said Nancy, 74.

Far left political activist and social critic Cornel West was invited on Hannity on Tuesday to debate fellow leftist Leo Terrell on defunding the police in America. Since the leftist riots and looting started last week across America Leo Terrell was a surprising voice of sanity defending the police and railing at the violent leftist protesters. During the discussion Cornel West filibustered when asked if he supports defending the police. Leo then attacked West for not answering the question knowing that West, a far left radical, supported the idea of no funding for police. That’s when all hell broke loose. Cornel […]

We are social creatures. So it’s no surprise that quarantine fatigue has begun to set in. “Humans are wired to come together physically,” says psychologist Judith Moskowitz of Northwestern University. But, loneliness has become widespread in modern life. And, social distancing has just exacerbated the problem,” Moskowitz says. Finding ways to connect is essential to our well-being, since prolonged isolation can increase the risk of depression and anxiety, says Dr. Sandro Galea of Boston University’s School of Public Health. “We know from other events, the longer the isolation, the more risk,” Galea says. Social distancing recommendations will remain in place for […]
