Hamlin’s controversial move: Did he make the right call in NASCAR playoffs?

October 11, 2025

Denny Hamlin has sparked controversy in NASCAR’s playoffs after passing Ross Chastain on the final lap, knocking him out of contention. The move allowed Joey Logano to advance, drawing criticism because Logano and teammate Ryan Blaney have dominated recent championships. The third round begins Sunday in Las Vegas with eight drivers from top teams. NASCAR is closely monitoring race manipulation, especially after last weekend’s events at Charlotte. Officials say they would have acted if Hamlin had been instructed not to pass Chastain. Meanwhile, NASCAR plans to increase horsepower for next season, responding to demand from drivers and fans.

Trump’s indictment of New York attorney general Letitia James stirs concerns for Black women leaders

October 11, 2025

The indictment of New York Attorney General Letitia James on allegations of mortgage fraud has raised alarms among her allies and Black leaders, who condemned it as a politicization of the justice system for President Donald Trump’s personal grievances. James, who had previously prosecuted the Trump Organization for business fraud, has called the charge “baseless” and “a grave violation of our constitutional order.” The claims against her drew parallels with recent efforts by Trump to remove a Federal Reserve Board governor, Lisa Cook, from her post over similar allegations. Some Black leaders say the move carries symbolic weight to Black families, where property ownership has historically been restricted by the legal system through outright and implicit discrimination.

Truce fizzles as U.S.-China trade tensions return to full boil

October 11, 2025

Months of relative calm in the long-simmering trade war between the U.S. and China may be coming to an end. A spate of moves between the two nations this week has thrust trade hostilities back in the global spotlight, roiled stock markets and raised alarms of what might come next. China announced strict new limits on exports of rare earth minerals crucial to high-tech products. The U.S., in turn, has threatened an additional 100% tax on Chinese imports and export controls on American software. Both sides also hit one another’s ships with new port fees. Experts say it is unclear if it all means a rapid escalation is inevitable or if the threats could pave the way for an agreement.

Crypto spent millions to defeat Sherrod Brown and elect allies. It’s ready for a repeat in 2026

October 11, 2025

The cryptocurrency industry spent millions last year to unseat a longtime critic, Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown in Ohio, and install its allies in Washington. It’s ready for a repeat in 2026 and may once more target Brown, who’s making a comeback bid. Democrats are hopeful about Brown’s chances to return to the Senate, especially without Donald Trump at the top of the ballot. But crypto interests have even more to spend this time. And the industry has seen the Republican-controlled Congress turn in its favor now that Brown no longer heads the Senate banking committee. But Brown’s approach to crypto sounds different this time.

As the National Guard enters Memphis, memories of MLK and 1968 unrest resurface

October 11, 2025

As the National Guard enters Memphis, some longtime residents are recalling the thousands sent there in 1968. Back then, troops were responding to protests by striking sanitation workers that drew the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., then turned chaotic. A week later, the Guard was back after King was assassinated and uprisings arose across the nation. President Donald Trump said last month he would deploy the Guard and use of a slew of other federal agencies to fight crime in Memphis. A spokesman for the Tennessee Military Department says some Guard members are already assisting with community safety patrols, security and traffic control to help reduce crime.

A sacred lake, a Columbus statue, and an Indigenous people’s long struggle for land

October 11, 2025

Before white settlers came to Onondaga Lake and the city of Syracuse grew along its shore, it was a sacred place for the Onondaga Nation. Now, the Indigenous nation’s leaders are trying to reclaim a small piece of the lake’s shoreline in upstate New York. But after 14 years of talks, the effort is stalled amid issues related to taxes, the lake’s cleanup and most recently a nearby statue of Christopher Columbus. County lawmakers are open to the idea of giving a parcel of land to the Onondaga. But an aide to a county official involved in the discussions recently upset Onondaga leaders by suggesting they drop their opposition to a statue of Columbus that has stood atop a pillar in downtown Syracuse since 1934.

Republicans try to weaken 50-year-old law protecting whales, seals and polar bears

October 11, 2025

One of the U.S.’s longest standing pieces of environmental legislation, credited with helping save rare whales from extinction, is the subject of an effort for cutbacks from Republican lawmakers who now feel they have the political will to do so. The Marine Mammal Protection Act, enacted 1972, protects whales, seals, polar bears and other sea animals, and it places restrictions on commercial fishermen and shippers. The legislation has long been a target of conservatives and industry members who now seek to remove key pieces of it. A GOP-led bill is in the works to do just that. Conservation groups adamantly oppose the changes and say they will erase years of hard won gains for jeopardized species
