MSNBC host Rachel Maddow got some more bad news this week after she criticized her network following the firing of race-baiting host Joy Reid and the demotion of fill-in host Alex Wagner. Her criticism comes on the heels of the network revealing that Reid’s and Wagner’s shows would be canceled as part of a broader effort to revamp its programming, with weekend shows hosted by Katie Phang, Jonathan Capehart, and Ayman Mohyeldin also being scrapped. “She is leaving the network altogether and that is very, very, very hard to take. I am 51 years old,” Maddow said during a show...

In this episode of "Yawn, So What's New?"... In a predictable leftist move, "Ben & Jerry's" ice cream is hawking a "direct action" ... "against fascism" in opposition to President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on January 20. Yeah. And yawn. As reported by the Post Millennial on Thursday, the notoriously radical left-wing company is working to organize participation in a "People's March" on January 18 in Washington, D.C., along with other locations across the fruited plain. The company's latest newsletter encouraged its customers to protest and "dissent" against Trump's soon-to-be presidency. Post Millennial Senior Editor Andy Ngo posted a reminder on...

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met Thursday with Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg and prominent European figures who are forming a working group to address ecological damage from the 16-month-old Russian invasion.

Greta Thunberg has been twice detained at protests in Oslo over an onshore wind farm which she and activists say hinders the rights of the Sami indigenous people to raise reindeer in Arctic Norway. The 20-year-old Swedish environmental campaigner and hundreds of other demonstrators say a transition to green energy should not come at the expense of indigenous rights and have been demanding the removal of 151 wind turbines from land used by Sami herders. "We want to make it very clear that it is the Norwegian state that is committing the real crime here, for violating human rights," she...

OSLO (Reuters) -Environmental campaigner Greta Thunberg and dozens of other activists on Monday blocked entrances to Norway's energy ministry, protesting against wind turbines built on land traditionally used by indigenous Sami reindeer herders. Thunberg, a vocal advocate for the ending the world's reliance on carbon-based power, said the transition to green energy could not come at the expense of indigenous rights. "Indigenous rights, human rights, must go hand-in-hand with climate protection and climate action. That can't happen at the expense of some people. Then it is not climate justice," Thunberg told Reuters while sitting outside the ministry's main entrance with...

On Jan. 30, the affluent town of Hillsborough held a city council meeting to discuss its floundering housing element plan. The plan, which lays out how towns and neighborhoods will meet state-mandated housing targets within eight years, was supposed to be submitted to California’s Department of Housing and Community Development by Feb. 1. It wasn’t. And it remains in limbo more than a week later. More troublingly, a Hillsborough resident proposed a loophole that’s been popping up in other affluent Bay Area towns trying to meet their housing requirements: build a segregated development specifically for developmentally disabled adults, thus preventing...

When progressives can’t pass their agenda through the front door in Congress, they sneak it through a regulatory back window. That’s what the Biden Administration is doing with gas stoves, as the Energy Department this week proposed new rules that amount to a gradual de facto ban. A Biden appointee on the Consumer Product Safety Commission ignited a firestorm last month by threatening to ban gas stoves. After criticism from West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin and others, the CPSC chairman rejected the idea, and White House officials said they didn’t support banning gas stoves. Then why has the Energy Department...

Arian Foster 'revealed' how the NFL was 'scripted' Ex-NFL star Arian Foster’s sarcastic explanation about how the league was "rigged" brought along some hilarious responses from his former colleagues on Wednesday. The former star running back for the Houston Texans sarcastically talked about the NFL being rigged in the latest episode of the Barstool Sports podcast "Macrodosing." New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey and New England Patriots pass-rusher Matt Judon were among the NFL players to chime in.

The World Economic Forum in Davos has quite the reputation for gathering industry and policy bigwigs together to discuss serious topics such as the climate crisis, as well as sharing ideas on pressing issues… and listen to weird singing, apparently. Singer-songwriter Achinoam Nini (also known as Noa) and guitarist Gil Dor, both from Israel, gave a (very) memorable performance on Thursday ahead of a conversation with climate advocate Carla Gomez Briones on the subject of “music as a catalyst for change”. The bizarre music featuring whistling and almost operatic singing from Noa has since gone viral online, with many wondering...
