Hakimi, who led his side out for their second World Cup fixture against Scotland on Friday, has consistently denied the…

The path to liberation does not run through comfort. That much has always been true. In some tellings, as the Pharaoh’s army chased Moses towards the Red Sea, a member of the tribe had to wade nearly up to their chin in the raging waters before Moses raised his staff and the sea split in two. Despite not knowing how to swim, Harriet Tubman plunged into the waterways of Maryland’s Eastern Shore to help others escape their bondage. Staring down billy clubs and snarling dogs, John Lewis and the marchers summoned the strength to cross the Edmund Pettus Bridge over…

More than a day after the Interior Department said that the water of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was «crystal clear,» it appears to be anything but.Despite tireless efforts from National Park Service workers, the pool, which cost more than $14.65 million to repaint, is still marred by algae as the «American flag blue» paint covering the floor continues to peel. The condition of the water on its own, as opposed to the grandeur of the monument, is becoming a draw of its own as well.In an aerial view from the Washington Monument, crews remove algae from the bottom of the…

By Jonathan Klotz | Updated 27 seconds ago Tom Clancy is no longer with us, but his extensive novel series of military fiction, centered on CIA analyst Jack Ryan and Special Forces operative John Clark, continues to be a gold mine for Hollywood adaptations. The Hunt for Red October is the best submarine movie of the last 40 years, Patriot Games was one of Harrison Ford’s best action movies of the 90s, and John Krasinski’s Amazon series, Jack Ryan, is a smash hit. Notably absent to longtime Clancy fans is that one of his best novels has yet to be…

PHILADELPHIA — In front of a sold-out crowd of 68,324, Brazil started the process of getting things back on the right track with a 3-0 victory over Haiti in the 2026 World Cup group stage, but it’s a game that brings more worries than answers for Carlo Ancelotti as he looks to live up to the immense pressure that comes with managing the Selecao. The joy of Matheus Cunha’s brace was cancelled out by an injury to Raphinha as a game that started brightly for Brazil led to an uncomfortable finish. It’s also a match that saw Haiti become the first…

The Pink Tide that first pulled politics leftward throughout much of Latin America in the 2000s took a bit longer to reach Colombia. Dominated for decades by a right-wing ruling class that accepted massive US military aid to carry out bloody campaigns against armed left-wing rebels, coca farmers, and many, many civilians, Colombia remained what Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez once called the "unsinkable aircraft carrier" for US interests in Latin America at a time when many neighboring countries launched bids for national autonomy and progressive governance.
