INGLEWOOD — The Clippers need help, possibly even divine intervention. Asked what the team has to do if they hope to avoid more late-game misfortunes, guard Kris Dunn didn’t point fingers at his teammates. Instead, he pointed to the sky and said, “Trust God.” Despite their lofty petitions, Coach Tyronn Lue seems to have run out of answers. The Clippers continue to commit untimely blunders, which have led to them dropping eight of their past nine games and 10 of their past 12. “The guys are doing all the right things to get to that point (to win games) and…

IRVINE — Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba have been key assets for the Ducks, but not long ago they had for-sale signs dangling around their necks. They began last season as the New York Rangers’ longest-tenured player and captain, respectively, but each started this campaign in the opposite corner of the country. On Monday, they’ll return to Midtown Manhattan for the first time since Trouba was dealt last December and Kreider was shipped out over the summer. The low point was a Nov. 24, 2024, memo from Rangers GM Chris Drury that let all 31 competing NHL franchises know that…

We now live in a nation where constitutional rights exist in theory, not in practice. Yet what good are rights on paper when every branch of government is allowed to ignore, circumvent, chip away at or hollow them out in practice? Two hundred and thirty-four years after the ratification of the Bill of Rights on December 15, 1791, the safeguards meant to shield “We the people” from government abuse are barely recognizable. In ways the Founders could scarcely have imagined—and would never have tolerated—the safeguards meant to restrain government overreach have become little more than empty platitudes. America’s founders understood…

Police are investigating the report of a drive-by shooting with an estimated 20 rounds fired that was aimed at a Redlands home decorated for Hanukkah, followed by an obscenity shouted from a car. The homeowner posted an account of what happened the evening of Friday Dec. 12 on social media, along with a surveillance video.

The Anti-Defamation League, a San Bernardino City Councilwoman and the mayor of Redlands decried the incident on Saturday, saying it shatters the Jewish community’s sense…

California might have to call 911 to save its emergency communications system upgrade project. Whether the call would actually get through is another matter. While the Golden State prides itself on its innovative technology sector and the genius, in Silicon Valley and beyond, these private sector successes have yet to be replicated in the state government. The failure to upgrade the state’s 911 system is just the latest example of this ineptitude. The California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) set out to upgrade the state’s 911 system in 2019. The Next Generation 911 project sought to provide dispatchers…
