White supremacy is like a wave at sea crashing into a beach—an unstoppable and transformative force, shifting sand, ferrying debris and constructing America’s topographical landscape. This is why, sometimes, you have to do what I used to do when at the wave pool as a kid, when I’d wait for the waves to come in, and…
There’s a storm coming, maybe, at least the Commander in Chief seems to think so. After meeting with a dozen or so military leaders and their spouses, President Trump blurted out a terrifyingly vague and totally spontaneous…uh…premonition on Thursday.
The shooter who recently terrorized the Las Vegas strip, leaving 59 dead and hundreds injured, used gun modifications called “bump stocks” to make his rifles even deadlier. But what are they exactly?
An anti-LGBTQ law that the Human Rights Campaign described as the “nation’s worst” will go into effect on Friday in Mississippi.
Calling the Las Vegas mass shooting that left more than 59 people dead and hundreds more injured the “deadliest in U.S. history” isn’t accurate—and describing it as such erases many of the violent massacres in this country’s past.

On Oct. 13, Marshall, which stars the likes of Chadwick Boseman and Sterling K. Brown and is directed by Reginald Hudlin, will be making its debut in theaters.

When President Donald Trump visited Puerto Rico on Tuesday, he went out of his way to portray the island as bouncing back from Hurricane Maria’s devastation. Handing out flashlights at a stop during his trip, Trump insisted “you don’t need ‘em,” despite the fact that less than 10% of Puerto Ricans had electricity at…
Reader, I was perusing today’s print edition of the venerated Washington Post opinion section when this headline leapt up from the page:
At a time where popular culture is permeated with superheroes, the comic and short film Raising Dion flips the script on the genre.
As the lawyering up reported by Variety foretold, the New York Times published a detailed investigation on Thursday into several decades of sexual harassment allegedly committed by Harvey Weinstein, the powerful film producer and co-founder of Miramax and the Weinstein Company.
The Trump Administration is requesting that Splinter “return...or destroy” all copies of a spreadsheet containing shockingly sensitive details of calls to a new Immigration and Customs Enforcement hotline purportedly aimed at crime victims and “refrain from using” the information in any further reporting.
All it took was the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history for the country’s most noxious pro-gun lobbying group, the National Rifle Association, to lend its support to the most narrow vision of gun control imaginable.
In the days since Las Vegas massacre, there has been a renewed effort by citizens groups, congressional Democrats, and even Walmart, to address the sale and use of “bump stocks.” These devices turn semi-automatic weapons (which are largely legal) into de-facto automatic ones (which are largely illegal).

A bill titled the “Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act,” which would ban nearly all abortions up to 22 weeks gestation, just passed the House of Representatives in a 237-189 vote. But even though pain is bad and babies are good (I love babies, personally), this bill is a steaming pile of bullshit. Starting with…
