I guess we can start calling 2026 the year of the protest song, because another washed-up celebrity is back to fight the man.First, we had Bruce Springsteen regale us with some of the worst slapped-together lyricism this side of slam poetry with his ICE diss track, "Streets of Minneapolis."Now, according to Rolling Stone, none other than Bette Midler has joined the fray with a spin on a "classic" protest song(and I use that term VERY loosely) called "Hey You Facists" by Woody Guthrie.The song was written in 1940 and addressed issues such as the poll tax, Jim Crow, and race

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves on Friday said he will call a special legislative session to redraw district lines after the U.S. Supreme Court issues a ruling in a key redistricting case.Reeves said the session would take place 21 days after the court rules in Louisiana v. Callais, a case that could reshape how states apply the Voting Rights Act.The case centers on Louisiana’s 2024 congressional map, which added a second majority-Black district and is being challenged as an unconstitutional racial gerrymander.The outcome could influence redistricting battles nationwide, particularly in Republican-led states, ahead of this year’s midterms.SCOTUS CONSERVATIVES SIGNAL READINESS TO

Octopuses’ earliest relatives that lived 100 million years ago may have been "gigantic" predators that hunted alongside the dinosaurs, according to new research.Although scientists previously believed that the earliest finned octopuses lived around 15 million years ago, researchers with Hokkaido University found fossilized jaws found inside late Cretaceous rock samples, according to a study published in the journal "Science" on Thursday.Because octopuses are soft-bodied animals, they don’t fossilize well except for the jaw bones, making their evolutionary history difficult to trace, the researchers explained in a news release.The researchers used high-resolution grinding tomography and an artificial intelligence model to find

Maine Democrat Graham Platner is vowing to pursue closer ties with China if elected to the Senate, arguing that the U.S. should be "far more cooperative" with the communist state on issues like climate change."I think our position towards China should be one of cooperation instead of one of opposition," Platner said during a livestream in February, arguing it would be "absurd" to have an aggressive approach toward Beijing, citing its trade relationship with the United States."I am not a China hawk, not by any stretch of the imagination," he continued.

Everybody knew about the tragic auto accident and the follow-up a year later, but when it came to Rueben Bain’s draft status, people said, "No worries." His arms are short, but he’s really good, so the refrain remained: "No worries."Why then did Rueben Bain slide to the middle of the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday?Whoever said neither issue would cause Bain to fall out of the Top 10 was obviously wrong.He fell to the No. 15 overall selection held by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.TRAVIS HUNTER GETS REAL ON HIS AND SHEDEUR SANDERS' NFL FUTURES: 'WE JUST GOING

Chris "Mad Dog" Russo went on ESPN’s First Take this week and delivered one of the most absurd hot takes of 2026. After Scottie Scheffler’s playoff duel with Matt Fitzpatrick at the RBC Heritage in Hilton Head, Russo inexplicably objected to American fans chanting "U-S-A."

And since when do fans need an officially sanctioned red-white-and-blue event before they are allowed to root for an American player over a foreign player? Scheffler is American.
