Karen Attiah, an opinion columnist for The Washington Post, has been fired after posting a number of controversial things on social media after Charlie Kirk was killed. In a Substack essay on Monday, Attiah confirmed that she had been fired. The paper called her comments “unacceptable posts on social media.” The posts came after the death of Kirk, who was 31 years old and the founder of Turning Point USA. “Part of what keeps America so violent is the insistence that people perform care, empty goodness, and absolution for white men who espouse hatred and violence,” one of Attiah’s posts…
Jordan Brann, who went to Pine View High School in St. George, Utah, posted a TikTok that has since been deleted in which he said he knew the suspect, Tyler Robinson, from school.

Brann made it clear in a second video that he wasn’t friends with Robinson, but he did see him a lot over the course of three years. It looked like he was…

With silent determination, Frank Delaney rose before dawn, his body stiff but his mind steady. At seventy-eight, mornings were not gentle anymore—every joint had to be coaxed awake, every step negotiated with age. Yet discipline, carved into him during his years in the Marine Corps, pulled him forward. He had a flight to catch. The Denver airport buzzed like a hive already in motion.

Frank, in his weathered jacket with a Marine Corps patch still stitched to the sleeve,…

Noreen had texted me the invite herself, with a heart and a “wouldn’t be the same without you.” Ever since Luca died two years ago, I’ve shown up for his family’s holidays, hospital runs, minor emergencies—because grief doesn’t unmake a family, it just rearranges the chairs. Or so I thought. The moment I stepped into Noreen’s living room, the temperature dropped. Conversation hiccuped. Kara’s smile stalled half an inch…
Why You Keep Waking at 3 A.M.—And What It Could Mean If you’ve ever found yourself wide awake at 3 a.m., staring at the ceiling and wondering why your sleep suddenly vanished, you’re not alone. A stray awakening now and then is normal, but repeatedly snapping awake at this specific hour—often with a restless mind—can be more telling than it seems. Biology has plenty of answers. But sometimes the middle-of-the-night wakeup call isn’t only physiological. It can feel like something deeper—a quiet nudge from life, or even from God.
