LeBron’s Philly Move Finally Happens | Tulsa News

LeBron James is officially headed to the Philadelphia 76ers — his final NBA move — eight years after a viral billboard stunt by businessman Asher Raphael planted the seed. That 2018 campaign, inspired by the movie “Three Billboards,” teased Philly’s hunger for a superstar and even got LeBron to laugh. Now, with LeBron joining Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, Raphael’s dream has come true — and Philly’s NBA championship drought may finally be over.

NRC Drops ALARA Safety Standard | Tulsa News

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is poised to scrap ALARA — the 50-year-old safety doctrine that demanded radiation exposure be kept “as low as reasonably achievable” — replacing it with a flexible “graded approach” tailored to risk levels. This move, timed with President Trump’s push to expand nuclear power to fuel AI and data centers, aims to accelerate reactor development. While NRC leaders insist safety won’t be compromised, critics warn the change could raise permissible radiation doses, especially for nearby communities, and may reflect political pressure rather than scientific necessity. The proposal also seeks to raise public exposure limits from 10 to 25 millirem annually — a shift that could realign U.S. standards with international norms, even as experts debate whether the new approach truly protects workers and the public better than ALARA.

Castro Absent as Cuba Marks Revolution | Tulsa News

Cuba marked the 70th anniversary of the 1953 revolutionary attack that ignited the island’s path to independence — but for the first time in 30 years, 95-year-old Raúl Castro skipped the event, leaving President Miguel Díaz-Canel to lead the commemoration and read Castro’s message. Though the 1953 assault failed, it became the catalyst for the 1959 revolution. Castro, still influential despite stepping back from official duties, reportedly helped steer recent U.S. talks — even as Cuba endures a deepening economic crisis. Díaz-Canel fiercely rejected a U.S. report alleging Cuba runs an espionage network, calling it part of a campaign of “maximum pressure” that’s caused daily blackouts, medicine shortages, and plummeting living standards. With major global companies pulling out and inflation soaring, Cuba’s struggle with U.S. sanctions has never been more acute.

Laura Loomer Reverses Course on Ukraine | Tulsa News

Laura Loomer, once a vocal pro-Russia conservative figure, has dramatically reversed course after traveling through war-torn Ukraine, admitting she fell for Russian disinformation and urging fellow right-wingers to question what they’re consuming. Once a Trump ally who downplayed the war, she now blames Russian propaganda for swaying American conservatives — a shift she says was catalyzed by her social media ban and exposure to Russian narratives on Telegram. She’s even met with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and claims to have discussed her trip with Trump, while Ukrainian officials praise her newfound honesty. Loomer insists she’s funding the trip herself and says her message is already awakening skeptics in the MAGA movement — calling Russian influence a greater threat than war itself.
