Lemme have it!! But it’s true.” The social media has been fired up since this afternoon about what happened... Read more
They say “it’s better to be lucky than good.” Bryson DeChambeau may have proved that today. He won the U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 by one stroke over Rory McIlroy even though Bryson kept missing fairways to the right in the “native areas” with sand and constant clumps of gnarly, wire grass, yet having playable shots to the greens. Plus, Rory gave him two gifts on the 16th and 18th holes by missing short putts. Still, Bryson made a... Read more

It is being reported by various sources that Trump met with a group of House Republicans and said to them, “Milwaukee, where we are having our convention, is a horrible city.” He meant the...

The New York Times revisits the origin of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic that so disrupted life with today’s article, “Two Covid Theories,” by David Leonhardt. It begins with these two paragraphs, “The origin of the Covid virus remains the pandemic’s biggest mystery. Did the virus jump to human beings from animals being sold at a food market in Wuhan, China? Or did the virus leak from a laboratory in Wuhan? “U.S. officials remain divided. The F.B.I. and the Department of... Read more

Meta–whose face is the leading social media platform, namely Facebook, that was founded by Mark Zuckerberg, an American Jew–is increasingly being accused of discrimination against Palestinians in their decades-long conflict with Israel to establish their own state. For instance, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts sent an open letter to Mark Zuckerberg last December accusing Meta platforms, which would be mostly Facebook, of censorship against the Palestinian cause. This letter was co-signed by ninety human rights and civil rights organizations.... Read more
