OPINION: I've been a "PlayStation gamer" since around halfway through the PS3 and Xbox 360 generation when I decided to ditch my 360 for Sony's offering. But, like many I suspect, I'm questioning the value that the PlayStation 5 offers. I don't know what may finally make me switch, but it won't be Steam coming to Xbox. To varying levels, it feels like I've spent the last year or so pondering if it's time to switch from PlayStation to Xbox. I'm in the enviable position of having an Xbox Series...
by WorldTribune Staff, April 18, 2024 One of the dismissed jurors in Donald Trump’s hush money case in New York said it likely is not possible to seat an impartial jury. Reports from the fourth day of the proceedings noted that it may take at least two weeks to seat the full jury of 12 […]
There’s a dance-based competition show currently airing Mondays at 9 pm. New episodes land on Fox. Cat Deeley’s the host. And yet, despite those familiar trappings, or the title that runs across the screen at the start of each episode, I’m having trouble believing that the show in question is actually So You Think You […]
Most GOP senators have fallen in line with Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign to return to the White House, starting from the top with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. They’re with him despite everything, including Jan. 6 when he unleashed a mob on the Capitol that threatened their physical safety, if not their lives. But they are hanging on to the pretense that they’ll be able to constrain him by continuing to refuse to nuke the filibuster for him, something Trump demanded when he was in the White...

Pennsylvania Republicans just sent a warning to former President Donald Trump: A good chunk of the party’s supporters still need some convincing.
It’s a moment in history — the first U.S. president facing criminal charges in an American courtroom. Yet only a handful of observers are able to see or even hear what is going on.
A kerfuffle in Grand Rapids, Mich., in recent days revealed a grim truth about America’s institutions in these troubled times: Too many of them lack the courage to stand up to the threat to democracy that is Donald Trump, thereby contributing to the alarming staying power of the once and perhaps future president. We already know about the failure of the main institutional players in this constitutional crisis: those atop the Republican Party. “Political parties are democracy’s gatekeepers,”...
PHOENIX -- It was déjà vu all over again. Again. Last September, the Cubs visited Arizona for a series of wild, consequential games. In one, Chicago nearly rallied from down six runs in the ninth inning. In another, the two teams traded extra-inning blows until Arizona finally prevailed in the
The least successful House speaker in history—the only one to be ousted—is taking time out of his revenge agenda to take a stab at rewriting history to somehow make himself the hero. That includes a Georgetown University event called “How Strong Is Our Democracy? With Kevin McCarthy.” Politico reports that despite that title, at “a time when both Democrats and Republicans—for very different reasons—warn that ‘democracy is on the ballot’ in 2024, he didn’t seem to have that level of concern about...
