1+ min ago (310+ words) Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar claimed Sunday on CBS local outlet WCCO that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents pulled over her son Saturday evening but allowed him to leave after he showed proof of citizenship. Tensions in Minnesota have grown as media attention focused on Somali immigrants in the state following the uncovering of a massive welfare fraud scandal in December. Speaking on "WCCO Sunday Morning" with Esme Murphy, Omar accused ICE of pulling over her 20-year-old son after he made a stop at Target, before releasing him once he produced his passport. "But yesterday after he made a stop at a Target, he did get pulled over by ICE agents and once he was able to produce his passport ID, they did let him go," Omar said. Murphy then asked Omar whether her son had gone into Target…...

Thiessen " best known for his frequent appearances on Fox News " sounded the alarm about white nationalist Nick Fuentes" relationship with the Republican Party and the MAGA movement. Thiessen warned Republicans that they will suffer politically if they don"t distance themselves from "overt racists" like Fuentes. Thiessen wrote, "Tucker Carlson"s effort to bring neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes into the mainstream of the conservative movement is not only morally reprehensible; it is a path to political suicide for the right. Those defending or excusing Carlson"s sane-washing of Fuentes need to ask themselves a simple question: Do they want to be a majoritarian movement or not?" But in an article published on December 13, The Atlantic"s Ali Breland laments that Fuentes is expanding, not reducing, his outreach. Fuentes has a show…...

Antisemitism has been on the rise in Australia, fuelled in part by Israel's war in Gaza, even as local Jewish groups have decried the lack of support from authorities. Worldwide, Australia and Italy experienced the biggest increase in antisemitic attacks in 2024, according to Uriya Shavit, who oversees an annual report about global antisemitism from Tel Aviv University. The numbers in these two countries rose while worldwide there was a slight decline in antisemitic attacks. Australia recorded 1,713 antisemitic incidents. Australia, a country of 28 million people, is home to about 117,000 Jews, according to official figures....

4+ min ago (1077+ words) Cleveland Browns vs. Chicago Bears, December 14, 2025 CHICAGO " Shedeur Sanders threw three interceptions in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Bears that dropped the Browns to 3-11, but he still gave the Browns some reasons to believe he can be their franchise quarterback. As the Browns continue to climb up toward the top few picks in the NFL draft with three straight losses, Sanders continue to show the Browns that perhaps they don't need to take Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza or any of the top quarterbacks in the NFL draft. The three interceptions might seem to tell a different story, but the second one, with Browns trailing 21-3, was a perfectly thrown ball to Jerry Jeudy that was ripped out of his hands by cornerback Jaylon Johnson. Had Jeudy hung onto to the ball and taken a step or two into the end zone,…...

5+ min ago (580+ words) CHICAGO " One of the Browns" biggest offensive issues was once again on full display Sunday in their 31-3 loss to the Chicago Bears. No, it wasn"t the question of their future at quarterback. It wasn"t the lack of a run game, or inconsistent pass catchers. All of those things have been issues of course, but I can argue they all largely come back to offensive line issues. This week, I asked LG Joel Bitonio, the longest tenured member of the team and one of the oldest at 34, how it felt to be the last starter standing on the line. "It"s been tough," Bitonio said. "You never want to see guys get banged up and things happen like that. You fight all offseason to try and keep your body in as good shape as you can and almost survive…...

5+ min ago (322+ words) Amaravati: The YSR Congress Party on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the Chandrababu Naidu-led government over the cancellation of 50 MBBS seats out of a sanctioned strength of 100 at Paderu Government Medical College, describing it as a serious administrative failure and a betrayal of tribal communities. He alleged that the failure to complete procedural requirements within stipulated timelines reflected the indifference of the Health Department, the Directorate of Medical Education and the college administration. He demanded a high-level inquiry to identify those responsible and sought strict disciplinary action against erring officials. Questioning the government's approach to medical education, Dr Ambati accused the ruling coalition of making politically driven decisions rather than acting in public interest. He pointed to what he called contradictory claims regarding medical colleges established during the previous YSRCP government's tenure. The YSRCP leader said the government has…...
