Why The Washington Post decided to opt out of a presidential endorsement

Publisher and CEO William Lewis explained, "We are returning to our roots of not endorsing presidential candidates.” It comes after The Los Angeles Times publisher blocked a planned endorsement of Vice President Harris. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Sewell Chan of Columbia Journalism Review.

Toxic Weed Killer Planned for Use in Connecticut Rivers Sparks Alarm This Is NO JOKE.. State Of EMERGENCY! - 3 DAYS LEFT! Why EVERYONE Should Be WORRIED About July 7th!  In the weeks surrounding July 4, 2025, people across Connecticut began raising concerns about a controversial chemical called Diquat —a weed killer known for its strength and toxicity. The chemical is part of a federally backed project to control a fast-spreading water plant called hydrilla , which is choking parts of the Connecticut River. While the government says the goal is to protect the ecosystem, many citizens worry the cure could be worse than the problem. The Connecticut River Hydrilla Control Research and Demonstration Project first used small doses of Diquat in 2023. This summer, they planned to expand the treatment. According to official sources, the plan was coordinated by federal, state, and tribal agencies —meaning it had high-level approval. Other states like Florida and Massachusetts have also use...

ALERT: A STRANGE OBJECT JUST ENTERED OUR SOLAR SYSTEM

ALERT: A STRANGE OBJECT JUST ENTERED OUR SOLAR SYSTEM  Some people believe there are giant objects out in space that we don’t fully understand. One of the most mysterious is something they call the "Interstellar 12-mile-long Atlas." Scientists haven’t officially confirmed this, but stories have popped up online and in photos from space missions showing long, strange shapes near stars or floating between planets. Some say it looks like a ship—12 miles long, with straight sides and strange markings. It doesn’t act like a normal asteroid or comet. It doesn’t spin the same way or leave a trail like space rocks usually do. People who follow space secrets think this object might not be natural at all. They believe it could be something made by intelligent beings—like a huge spaceship or ancient machine left behind. They say maybe it’s hiding, just sitting still, or maybe watching what happens near Earth. Others say governments or big space agencies already know about it but don’t ...

Russia and Azerbaijan aren’t getting along very well right now, and some people think it’s not just about the recent events we hear in the news -- They Are Right

Yes, there were people in Russia arrested for old crimes, and yes, there was a plane crash that Azerbaijan blamed on Russia. But if we look a little closer, there might be a bigger plan behind all this. Azerbaijan is getting closer with Turkey, and Turkey is part of NATO, which Russia doesn’t like. Some say Russia feels like it’s losing control over parts of the South Caucasus, a region it used to keep a tight grip on. So, Russia might be trying to stir up problems to remind everyone it’s still in charge. Others believe powerful countries often create trouble in smaller places so they can later offer to "fix it" and gain more control. It’s like when someone knocks over a tower of blocks just so they can be the one to rebuild it—only here, the blocks are countries and people’s lives. Why Are Tensions Rising Between Russia and Azerbaijan? In recent years, Russia and Azerbaijan have grown more distant and distrustful. They were once friendly neighbors, but since around 2009 the...
