Trump has penned a tribute to Village People co-founder Victor Willis who died on Tuesday following a “a short but aggressive illness.” The 47th President described Willis as a jovial individual and someone who loved to perform for the MAGA crowd at the president's various rallies. “[Willis] was a great and happy guy who loved that I used his group's song, 'YMCA,' at my Rallies. It became a 'monster' hit, again, 30 years after its original launch,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Many singers and groups wanted to get on board at the Rallies after…
The Supreme Court affirmed on Tuesday that the right to citizenship that has been in place since the abolishment of slavery over 150 years ago is still, in fact, a right. If you are born on American soil — regardless of your parentage, race, creed, or any other potentially differentiating factor — you are an American citizen. It's one of the foundational principles of the post-Civil War republic, and Republicans despise it. In the aftermath of the Supreme Court's rejection of Donald Trump's effort to end birthright citizenship via executive order — a blatantly unconstitutional effort that should have been…
by Stefania Clerici From the WOW! Signal to Spielberg's UFOs: when the unknown becomes rock There is something compelling about mysteries that no one can explain. In 1977, the Big Ear radio telescope in Ohio picked up an anomalous transmission from deep space. It lasted just 72 seconds, but it was so powerful and unusual that it prompted astronomer Jerry Ehman to circle the data and write down a single word next to it: “Wow!”. From that moment on WOW! Signal has entered legend, becoming one of the most famous symbols of the search for extraterrestrial life. It is from…

[This story was originally published on July 3, 2019.] When Martina McBride’s “Independence Day” was released to country radio in April 1994, it was easy to mistake the country song for a U-S-A! U-S-A! anthem. It was titled after America’s most patriotic holiday after all, and its irresistible chorus of “Let freedom ring!” seemed custom-made for small-town Fourth of July celebrations to come. But the true meaning behind “Independence Day,” written by Gretchen Peters and recorded by powerhouse vocalist McBride, was lost on many listeners — the seemingly July 4th holiday hit turned out to be a story of domestic…
