Josh Green defeated three little-known primary challengers seeking to lead the Aloha State.Green, who was first elected governor in 2022, entered the unusual Saturday primary with a 56% approval rating.

Meanwhile, Green had raised approximately $3.5 million, far outpacing Republican Gary Cordery, the race’s second-highest fundraiser, who had raised about $313,000,…

Caitlin Clark appeared headed for a one-game suspension after picking up what was initially ruled her eighth technical foul of the season Saturday — but the WNBA quickly stepped in.The league rescinded the technical foul assessed to the Indiana Fever star during the team’s win over the Chicago Sky, wiping away the penalty that would have automatically sidelined Clark for one game.Had the technical stood, Clark would have been forced to sit out Tuesday’s matchup against the New York Liberty, dealing a significant blow to Indiana as the Fever continue their push through the season. But, a WNBA spokesman told The Associated Press that the technical had been rescinded a few hours after the game ended.In the third quarter, Clark made contact with a referee when she was forced out of bounds and was called for a technical foul. The Fever went on to win the game 90-86.CAITLIN CLARK CALLS FOR FULL-TIME WNBA REFEREES AS OFFICIATING FAILURES MOUNT IN 2026Clark made her case for having the technical wiped away almost immediately, insisting after the game that the contact was accidental and never escalated into a verbal confrontation. With a suspension potentially hanging in the balance, Clark said she was optimistic…

This is perhaps the final year where good things will happen to teams with the worst record in the NBA. With the league set to adjust the Draft Lottery to address Adam Silver’s tanking concerns, the Wizards picked the perfect time to bottom out.And if this is the end of the traditional race to the basement, the worst finally got first. The Washington Wizards, the NBA’s most pitiful team this past season at 17-65, won the NBA Draft Lottery on Sunday, nabbing the prized pick with a 14% chance.

A week ago, DP World Tour golfer Yurav Premlall missed the cut in the Turkish Airlines Open by nine shots. Fast-forward to this Sunday, and his performance looks very different as the South African stunned the golf world with a 14-shot win at the Catalunya Championship.Golf is a fickle game, but the performance the 22-year-old put together in Spain for his maiden victory on the European circuit is stunning on every level imaginable. We’re talking about a player who began the week without a top-30 finish in eight starts this season turning around and finishing just one off the all-time biggest margin of victory set by Tiger Woods at the 2000 U.S. Open.

The United States has used force to seize enriched uranium from Venezuela. This announcement, made triumphantly by the US ruling class, comes with an understanding that Iran has a much larger stockpile of HEU (highly enriched uranium). The U.S. is in an Ongoing WAR With Venezuela In a statement on Friday, the Department of Energy (DOE) claimed that it had completed the “removal of all remaining enriched uranium from a legacy research reactor” in Venezuela, and transferred it to the US for processing and reuse. The quantity removed was 13.5 kg (30 pounds). The move “sends another signal to the world of a restored and renewed Venezuela,” the statement reads. It also hails “[US] President [Donald] Trump’s decisive leadership” on the issue, according to a report by RT. Back in January, the US abducted Venezuelan ruler Nicolas Maduro and his wife, after sinking several civilian boats over “narco terrorism.” The moves amounted to little less than war crimes, and the US ruling class was able to somehow get away with it. US accusations against Venezuela have always centered around drug trafficking, which was likely a cover for wanting Caracas’ oil.

I recently had the chance to test the Springfield Armory Mil-Spec pistol in .45 ACP, positioned in the manufacturer’s line as a very reasonably priced basic service pistol — yet one that still features a rugged forged frame and slide. Except for its taller sights, it shares the silhouette of a World War II era 1911-A1. While it’s part of the 1911-A1 series from Springfield Armory, curiously it is not so marked: the left side of the slide says simply MIL-SPEC, while the right side bears the Springfield Armory logo. So, exactly, what does “Mil-Spec” mean? In the case of this pistol, it can mean different things from different eras. The lines are sorta blurred… The Mil-Spec is instantly recognizable to any veteran of WWII, Korea or Vietnam. Let’s review the Springfield 1911 Mil-Spec in further detail — describing what it is and how it performs as a .45 ACP pistol. Original Mil-Spec For the youngish among us who only see these pistols in history books and museums, a brief history of the 1911 is in order. John Moses Browning designed the gun that would eventually be adopted by the U.S. Military as the M1911. At its introduction in the eponymous…
