On September 2, 2014, journalist Steven Joel Sotloff was murdered by a member of the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS). The brutal event was captured on video and then distributed for the whole world to see. Today, on the 10-year anniversary of Sotloff’s death, Marc Marginedas—a fellow reporter who was in captivity in Syria, as well—remembers Sotloff’s courage, humor, and relentless quest for justice, despite the incredible dangers they’d experienced. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] It didn’t surprise me to see the expression of acceptance on Steven Sotloff’s face.

    UAW President Shawn Fain joined MSNBC's Lawrence Taylor to discuss the Teamsters' lack of endorsement for either candidate.

    The Daily Dot, Thursday - 09/19/2024 - 11:48 AM

    With a government shutdown looming in less than two weeks and the 2024 Presidential election in November, GOP Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise is springing into action by going after (checks notes) "wokeness." That sounds about right since House Republicans just defeated their own funding bill yesterday.

    The Daily Dot, Thursday - 09/19/2024 - 11:47 AM

    Miss Sassy is a Maine Coon from Springfield, Ohio, reported missing by her owner Anna Kilgore. Turns out though, even after rumor-spreading by JD Vance she was found alive and well in her owner's basement. Mrs Kilgore has since apologized to her Haitian neighbors and posted on Facebook. No such apology from JD Vance, however. Source: Daily Beast JD Vance’s insinuation that pets are being swiped and eaten by Haitian immigrants has hit yet another embarrassing snag. Vance’s campaign, responding to scrutiny over the hoax, shared a police report with the Wall Street Journal this week that detailed a Springfield, Ohio, resident’s claim that her cat mysteriously vanished in August.

The Colorado carpetbagger joined Real America's Voice and tried to be gadgety with her wordplay, but she fell flat.
