Actor Mark Hamill is calling on other Twitter users to boycott the site on Aug. 1 in an apparent attempt to protest Elon Musk’s ownership of the social media platform that's rebranding as "X."

"Looking forward to taking a...

Mark Hamill says the force is with Rep. Adam Schiff, with the “Star Wars” actor making a fundraising pitch for the California Democrat’s Senate bid. “Over the last six years, our democracy has been tested like never before. And in those dark times, Adam gave me hope,” a Monday email from Schiff’s Senate campaign and signed by Hamill said. “Hope that our democracy would survive.

Just a week before Christmas, 1972, the wife of newly-elected Sen. Joe Biden and the couple's baby daughter were killed - and their two sons badly injured - when the Biden family car was broadsided by a truck at an intersection in Delaware. The truck driver, Curtis Dunn, was never charged in the crash. But, his daughter Pam Hamill says, he too, suffered, reports CBS News correspondent Bob Orr. "He grieved over that," Hamill said. "He was haunted and was tormented by that for years." Dunn died in 1999, but since then his family has endured widespread rumors and reports...

This is the original manuscript that I submitted to the Crimson White, my campus newspaper. While I understand their need to edit the size of the article, they truncated much of the content that I believe was necessary to explain my position. I know that they could have included it because I was under the 800 word limit. The published article can be found at the source URL. Anyhow, here goes...

Biden uses his Senate Web site to inflict emotional distress on private citizen Pamela Hamill Inside Edition reports that Senator Joseph Biden, the individual--we won't call him a man--who wants to be a heartbeat away from the Presidency has, on at least two occasions, used his office to inflict emotional distress on a private citizen by calling her deceased father a drunk driver with blood on his hands. Noting that a false accusation of a crime like killing somebody while driving drunk is automatically libel or slander, Mr. Biden is lucky that Curtis Dunn is no longer alive to defend...

The site itself was cleared of its millions of tons of rubble in an astonishing eight months. This was a triumph of planning, muscle and will. But even before it was cleared, the site was the focus of various forces: real estate and political interests, the wishes of the families of the almost 3,000 dead, the desires of New Yorkers in the immediate neighborhood and beyond. They were not all cynical. Many were idealistic. For some it was sacred ground, never to be touched. Others resisted turning the site into a necropolis, a place inhabited by ghosts. They wanted it...

Weeks after his escape from enemy hands in Iraq, Thomas Hamill's memory of God's faithfulness remains vivid: God sustained him and removed the pain and fear that otherwise had the potential to overcome him. "I've been a Christian all my life, but it's hard to say exactly if you can put everything in God's hands unless it just comes down to that fact," Hamill told Baptist Press June 7. "That's what happened to me on the deal with being captured. I didn't have anybody else to put it in, and I laid it in God's hands." Hamill was taken hostage...

My company is fuel transportation. We are the Army Reserve 724th Transportation Company. But in Iraq we have civilian contractors Kellogg Brown and Root. They do all the fuel hauling. So we basically become force protection for convoys. Friday, April 9th, about 7 a.m., my platoon started getting ready for a fuel convoy from LSA Anaconda in Balad to Baghdad International Airport (BIOP). We were running security for 21 civilian fuel trucks. We had 26 in the whole serial. I was in the 21st truck with a civilian, riding shotgun (passenger). I had never ridden with a civilian on a...

Hamill was captured in Baghdad, but was being held in Tikrit, about a hundred miles away. Hamill reportedly heard a US convoy passing by and made a successful break for freedom.

Sunday morning at around 11:15 a wounded man came panting up to a New York National Guard unit near the Iraqi town of Belad, about 30 miles south of Tikrit. The man said he was an American: Thomas Hamill, a contractor kidnapped last month after insurgents ambushed a convoy in which he'd been driving. He said he'd heard the US patrol pass the building in which he was being held, so he'd pried a door open and chased them half a mile up the road. Other than an old gunshot wound to the arm, Mr. Hamill seemed fine, so the...
