Star Trek, the Future is a Mr. Sulu Nation CBS allows fans of Star Trek to produce and distribute new versions of what has become a cultural monument, as long as they don't make any money. On the Internet, each webisode costs $70,000, but anyone can get it for free. William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy are not part of the production, but George Takei is--still playing Mr. Sulu as a labor of love.

Later, terror attacks in Iran and conflicting claims about who’s behind them.

Ex-FBI Director Comey tells his side of the story Today, former FBI Director James Comey came close to calling the President who fired him a liar. The White House denied the claim and called it insulting, but Republican Senators did not challenge Comey’s truthfulness. Many questions remain: did the President try to obstruct a federal investigation? Later, we’ll go behind the “velvet rope” for a look at 5-Star health care for the richest Americans.

Terrorism and tweets, hate speech and murder Just days before an election, Britain is coping with a rash of deadly terrorism, and Prime Minister Theresa May is on the defensive. And again today, President Trump has tweeted criticism of the Mayor of London. Later, a double murder in Portland, Oregon has revealed the ugly past of a supposedly “progressive” city. One immediate question: is “hate speech” protected by the First Amendment?
