A professor at Texas State University was axed on Wednesday after a video of him allegedly advocating for political violence during a socialism conference went viral. Tom Alter, a now-former associate history professor at TSU and member of Socialist Horizon, spoke at the online Revolutionary Socialism Conference 2025 on Sept. 7, according to screen recordings shared on X. During his brief talk, Alter launched into a tirade about the “US Capitalist crisis” that he claimed is exacerbating issues like education, mental health and even basic infrastructure. “What makes the current crisis an extra problem for capitalists is the willingness of...

An oddly shaped object hurtling through space led Israeli astrophysicist Avi Loeb to write a book proposing the existence of outer space civilizations.Dinosaurs might still roam the Earth if a giant ancient asteroid had taken a slightly different course. If Prof. Avi Loeb had followed his expected trajectory, he’d have become a philosopher rather than Harvard University’s longtime chair of astronomy and founding director of its Black Hole Initiative. And if a shiny space object dubbed ‘Oumuamua hadn’t deviated from an orbit shaped by the Sun’s gravity, Loeb wouldn’t have written his bestselling Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life...

ICE isn't going anywhere and will continue to do what Mayor Bass has utterly failed to do – protect the citizens of Los Angeles. If she wants distance from federal law enforcement, I'm sure there is an upcoming diplomatic trip to Ghana

Communist dictator of North Korea Kim Jong-un declared through state media on Wednesday that the launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) was necessary to “clearly show what action the DPRK [North Korea] has been prepared and what option the DPRK would take when Washington makes a wrong decision against it.”

Side by side comparison. Which one is the conservative and which one is Establishment?

Outgoing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi instantly created a new holiday in a speech to members of the U.S. House, but is getting mocked for her mental flub. She wished people to have a "happy Shwanza."Which wasn't a known holiday before she announced it.

The mystery chunk of animal flesh that washed up on the beach. (@bootscootinaf/TikTok) A huge, smooth, pink, severed flesh-tentacle-thing discovered on a quiet island beach in Australia has drawn speculation over what kind of animal is now missing a piece of its anatomy. The "giant random animal part" was found and filmed by TikTok user Afri Gregory, and has since gone viral with millions of views sparking tons of speculation about whale penises. "It is massive, look! That's my foot. It's like the size of my leg. Eeew. Disgusting!" Gregory exclaimed in the footage, taken on an island off the...

Texas Democratic gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke appeared to back off his 2019 statement that "hell yes" he intends to take guns away from citizens if elected to office. "I’m not interested in taking anything from anyone," O’Rourke told reporters in Tyler, Texas on Tuesday, according to KLTV. "What I want to make sure that we do is defend the Second Amendment."

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians responded to questions about his decision to hit the helmet of Bucs safety Andrew Adams during Sunday’s game.Buccaneers head coach was looking out for Andrew Adams on Sunday, hitting his helmet and pushing him backwards with an elbow as Adams seemed poised to pull a penalty.

One of my favorite candidates in the 2020 race for the Democratic nomination has just announced that he is running for high office once again in 2022. He is Beto O'Rourke, and he is one of the great innovators in recent American politics. Of course, he is one of the great losers in recent American politics, too, having lost in 2018 to Sen. Ted Cruz and, two years later, having lost in his run for the Democratic presidential nomination. He bowed out of the race before it began. How many millions of dollars he cost his backers I would not...

Country singing legend Garth Brooks really, really wants everyone to get vaccinated. He’s so adamant about it that he canceled his sold-out tour playing in big venues, opting instead to do a “dive bar” tour. The reason he’s doing this is absolutely ridiculous. “The dive bars are vaccinated, that’s how you get to do it,” Brooks explained of his reasoning for resuming shows at smaller venues. “So, the great thing about this is, [the fans are] vaccinated or they have to show a 3-day negative in-advance test.”

TheModernSurvivalist: Hello everyone, join us 3PM EST SUNDAY October 4th as we talk with Matt Bracken about current events and how to be better prepared! Topic for the day will of course be President Donald Trump testing positive and all the implications.

Barack Obama took a break from being a menace to President Trump. He’s been vacationing in Hawaii since mid-December but hasn’t been seen much until now. A shirtless Obama was filmed falling off of a paddleboard in Hawaii after trying to stand and paddle in the choppy water. He hit the beach in his home state (are we sure about that?) where a photographer got some video and photos of a somewhat solo Obama trying his best to appear athletic. A Secret Service agent wearing a bulletproof vest was in a kayak closeby. Obama was wearing a ‘shark deterrent’ band...

US presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg has said that his campaign "unknowingly" used prison workers to call voters on his behalf. The billionaire Democrat said he had cut ties with a vendor which operates two call centres in state jails. Mr Bloomberg said he learned about the company's use of prison labour only after receiving a call from a reporter. He entered the election race in November with one of the largest-ever political ad buys. His campaign's use of prison labour was first reported by news site The Intercept, and confirmed by Mr Bloomberg in a statement on Tuesday. "We do...

Church was held in contempt for several hours Wednesday by Judge Richard Sinnott while defending Lilley Antoinette, 29, a protester from Somerville who was charged with disorderly conduct at the Straight...
