Chris Christie (R) slammed former President Trump’s “awful lack of judgement” for his meeting with Nick Fuentes, a white supremacist who has previously espoused antisemitic and racist rhetoric.

After two missed years due to the pandemic, San Francisco Pride returned this weekend with their first in-person parade since 2019.

This was a very important record in the early 1970s that was covered by a multitude of recording artists. This is one of only 50 singles to sell in access of ten million copies (the "Middle of the Road" version). However, the hit version in the United States was performed by Mac & Katie Kassoon. Anyway, an utterly massive record that anybody alive in the early 1970s would instantly know. The video linked here is rather primitive by MTV standards (we were still 10 years away from the launch of that music video channel). But it's amusing in that has...

Yeah, they're raving lunatics, but harnessing that and directing it at this jackass could be a good thing: New details of allegations against Adam “Census Cowboy” Hollingsworth. According to information in charging documents: …Horse collapsed outside animal shelter. Could not get up on its own. …Upon arrival at shelter, horse was overheated, extremely exhausted, shook uncontrollably. …Horse has saddle sores, injuries to its Coronet band, and multiple wounds from being canter on concrete without shoes. …While on highway, horse galloped for short distances and also walked slowly “as if it was to the point of exhaustion.” …Case was delayed by...

In 2019, we can’t afford to not get political, even with escapist entertainment. So even though Elizabeth Banks’ Charlie’s Angels reboot is a high-stakes, globe-trotting spy thriller comedy, she still made sure to send a message with extreme real-world ties within the story about female spies: “Believe women.” Letting female rage express itself was one of the most important aspects of the new installment of the Charlie’s Angels franchise, Banks, who directed, wrote and co-stars, tells Collider along with a small group of journalists. “One of the ingredients of this movie was supporting and believing women,” she says. “We literally...

Emily Ratajkowsi and Lena Dunham were all about girl power at a swimsuit shoot for the Gone Girl star's Inamorata swimwear line. Usual in the spotlight, the 27-year-old newlywed got behind the camera to act as photographer for the shoot while the Girls star posed in a sultry leopard print one-piece of Ratajkowski's design. The photos were shared on Inamorata's Instagram page Tuesday to mark the coveted leopard print looks' return to their online store.

This arsenal of firearms is among the dozens of weapons that have been taken off London’s streets during the Met’s latest gun amnesty. Since Monday 45 weapons have been surrendered across the capital as part of the Give Up Your Gun campaign, including shotguns, revolvers, rifles and handguns, Scotland Yard said. Detectives from the Met’s gang unit today urged anyone still in possession of an illegal firearm to hand it in before the amnesty ends on Sunday night.

Bill Clinton is either losing it, or he’s ramping up his attacks on President Obama. Neither is good news for Hillary Clinton. During a speech in Spokane, Washington on Monday, Clinton seemed to tear down Obama to boost his wife. “Literally from the time I met her till we talked yesterday, she is the best change maker I have ever known. “She always finds a way to make something good happen, to make people feel empowered, to buy people into the process, to make democracy work the way the framer intended for it to work,” Clinton said. “Now, if you...

Hoping to stem the recent surge of migrants at the Southwest border, the Obama administration is considering whether to allow hundreds of minors and young adults from Honduras into the United States without making the dangerous trek through Mexico, according to a draft of the proposal.

SOCHI, Russia -- Teemu Selanne led his team around the ice, with a bronze medal draped around his neck, after he finished off his sixth Olympics with a sweet victory. If the Finnish Flash is retiring and hanging up his skates after the NHL season, he picked a pretty good way to go out on the world's stage. The final game at the Olympics turned out well for Finland's Teemu Selanne, who will go out on a high note, writes Pierre LeBrun. Story Selanne scored two goals and Tuukka Rask had a 27-save shutout, helping Finland rout the United States...

How this guy even got people to help him make a music video kind of makes you wonder. Does he really think he sounds good? RIP Hip Hop.

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em -- and if the daughter you tried to raise as a Christian Disney princess ends up twerking with stuffed animals in her underwear, well, it's probably time to remake your novelty country hit into a hip-hop anthem, throw in some half-naked twerking aliens, and surrender.

It’s a very subtle ploy, that statement, ”already making more money than most will earn in a lifetime.” Does it make you feel good? Glad for those billionaires, and proud of their enterprenurial spirit? Or does it make you feel slightly envious that these young kids will make more than you’ll ever see in your life? Yeah, me too. The ongoing repetition (only slightly unpalatable in single instances) permeates society these days. It’s in the press, on television, online… all the time. Captialism is evil; tax the rich; make the rich pay their fair share; they’ll make more than you’ll...

I have occasionally liked a clip, or something this guy has done, but aside from a few corkers, I laughed until I was nearly sick. Sometimes comedy is really capable of pointing out when people just aren't making sense.This episode features Stewart lampooning Obamacare, The Democrat leadership, the lame denials about rationing not happening, Racial politics, Hillary's fit in Africa that will make you choke with laughter, and an interview with one of Obama's economists who he asks, "Are we broke?" and proceeds to lay out the insanity of the path our country is taking.I just didn't expect it.

California will face massive budget shortfalls through at least 2014 without immediate action by lawmakers and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Legislature's nonpartisan budget analyst said Tuesday. In the midst of high unemployment, shaky consumer confidence and plummeting investments, the state needs a slew of tax increases and spending cuts to resolve a $27.8 billion problem over the next 20 months, Legislative Analyst Mac Taylor said. Those budgetary actions also would help narrow annual deficits of about $22 billion in subsequent years. While California faced a larger budget gap in 2002-03 under then-Gov. Gray Davis, Taylor said the longer projected duration...

Lynwood, Illinois - Be careful if you have saggy pants in the south Chicago suburb of Lynwood. Village leaders have passed an ordinance that would levy $25 fines against anyone showing three inches (7.62cm) or more of their underwear in public. The mayor of Lynwood, Eugene Williams, says young men walk around town half-dressed, keeping major retailers and economic development away. The American Civil Liberties Union says the ordinance targets young, black men. Young adults in the village, like 21-year-old Joe Klomes, say the new law infringes on their personal style. He said leaders should instead spend money on making...

Eurovision in Athens on Saturday night The 51st Eurovision song contest will be held at OAKA's Olympic indoor hall in Athens on Saturday night and will be broadcast live at 10 p.m. by state-run NET television station.
