She said that after she was forcibly slapped, her attacker pulled her hair, and she fell to the ground. Lewis said she watched the suspect run away as onlookers helped her off the ground and checked to make sure she was okay. 'That was honestly the scariest experience of my life,' she said in the video. 'If you're by campus and you're by this tall white guy, a homeless-looking guy with a beard, and sweats or something, please report him and be careful,' Lewis warned her classmates.

What good is an amendment saying we have the right to bear arms if I can't go house to house firing buckshot into every inflatable Christmas minion I see? Look, I don't have to spend my evenings driving around the neighborhood in my 2003 Silverado, shooting high-powered ammunition into inflatable Grinches. I do it as a service to my community. I'm just an everyday, red-blooded American, trying to do his part to rid the world of these abominations. Putting up inflatables to decorate for Christmas is like celebrating your anniversary by kissing your sister. It's gross, and it doesn't...

What’s Actually Happening Most of you already know what’s going on, but just in case you don’t: under the current rules, a government agency has to perform a security audit on DJI. If they don’t complete one by December 23rd, DJI automatically gets placed on the FCC’s Covered List. The truth is, no agency wants to be the one to step forward and take on that responsibility. There’s no incentive. There’s actually political risk. There’s liability. So the most likely scenario is that no audit is going to happen and DJI gets listed by default. It’s an underhanded way to...

Explanation: Where do comet tails come from? There are usually no obvious places on the nuclei of comets from which the jets that create comet tails emanate. One of the best images of emerging jets is shown in the featured picture, taken in 2015 by ESA's robotic Rosetta spacecraft that orbited Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (Comet CG) from 2014 to 2016. The picture shows plumes of gas and dust escaping numerous places from Comet CG's nucleus as it neared the Sun and heated up. The comet has two prominent lobes, the larger one spanning about 4 kilometers, and a smaller 2.5-kilometer lobe...

Sen. Josh Hawley is pitching his colleagues — and President Donald Trump — on a new health care plan. The Missouri Republican’s proposal comes as his party is grappling separately over what its strategy on health care should be as the Senate stares down a floor vote next week onHawley believes his new bill, which would allow all tax payers to deduct up to $25,000 per person in medical expenses, would help offer Republicans an agenda to coalesce behind while boosting the GOP’s affordability message heading into an election year. The bill also allows out of pocket spending on premiums...

The big lies of modern feminism have taken a huge toll on women, causing them confusion and frustration. Psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert recently reported that 75 percent of his patients cannot function because they are so triggered by President Donald Trump’s existence. Alpert didn’t specify what percentage of his patients are women, but numerous reports show that leftist women today are especially afflicted with mental illness, misery, and loneliness. Alpert explained that “Trump Derangement Syndrome” matches the clinical symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).[video at link] They can’t sleep. They can’t enjoy life. And yet some psychotherapists actually advise them to isolate...

A University of Oklahoma student’s final grade won’t be affected after she controversially flunked a Bible-based essay on gender that was assigned by a trans instructor — triggering widespread backlash. Samantha Fulnecky, 20, filed a discrimination complaint with the school last week after she was given an F for arguing in her psychology class paper that “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” The school has since revealed the failing grade will have no bearing on Fulnecky’s academic standing after the course’s professor, Mel Curth, was placed on leave and administrators launched a probe into the junior’s complaint. For the assignment,...

I usually don’t throw up Vanities, but this one matters — because Congress absolutely reads Free Republic, and someone on the Hill needs to hear this plainly: Sen. Mark Warner’s “the uniformed military may help save us from this president” remark is not normal political rhetoric. It is not “oversight.” It is not “concern.” It is the exact kind of language members of Congress were censured — and even expelled — for in the years leading up to the Civil War. Warner is the Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. He knows the weight of his words. He knows civilian...

SARASOTA COUNTY, Fla. — Deputies in Southwest Florida had their hands full when a 14-foot, 600-pound alligator decided to rest on the doorstep of a Sarasota residence. It took seven deputies with the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office and a licensed trapper to dislodge the massive reptile and lift it onto a truck. “This massive guest had plans to stay for the holidays, but we had other ideas,” the sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post. The alligator was nearly a record-breaker for length, coming up a few inches short of the state’s record.

In the winter of 2014, an adult female wolf was found dead in northern Minnesota, on the Grand Portage Indian Reservation. When the necropsy was performed, the cause of death was determined to be from a single wound from an ordinary pellet gun. Described as “low powered”, the pellet was almost certainly either .177 or .22 caliber. Although this incident occurred in 2014, I only learned of it this year. Ordinary pellet guns have been powerful enough to kill humans and even a black bear. The wolf was a lone female who had been driven out of the pack on...

An inebriated raccoon was taken into custody after allegedly breaking into a Virginia liquor store on Black Friday, partaking in what officials have deemed a "liquor-fueled rampage." A trail of smashed liquor bottles led police to the masked suspect, who was found passed out in the sploot position on the Ashland business's bathroom floor, according to Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter. In an embarrassing photo shared by authorities, the plastered procyonid could be seen lying next to a garbage can and toilet. The town later identified the four-legged intruder as "Cole," noting he may need a ride home after...

Today I spent the day with my excellent collaborator Richard Ellenbogen cross-examining witnesses at the New York Public Service Commission’s hearing on whether the pending rate increase request of our utility Con Edison should be approved. We had a lot of fun. Although the hearing was theoretically open to the public, they had no live video feed, and you had to register in advance to attend in person. It looked like everybody there was an interested party. At the close of the hearing, we were invited (along with everybody else) to file a post-hearing brief by next Friday, December 12....

Capturing the cultural zeitgeist and trends for the year ahead is a tricky business. But every year, the Pantone Color Institute chooses a color to do precisely that. And it has settled on a shade of white, “Cloud Dancer,” as its Color of the Year for 2026. The institute, which is considered a leading authority on color, forecasting trends and advising brands, described the shade as “a billowy, balanced white imbued with a feeling of serenity.” As technology’s grip on daily life tightens, Cloud Dancer represents a “calming influence in a frenetic society, rediscovering the value of measured consideration and...

Prince Harry took a jab at President Trump during his awkward appearance on the “Late Show with Stephen Colbert” as he teased Americans over their obsession with the royals. Harry crashed Colbert’s monologue at the Ed Sullivan Theater in NYC on Wednesday night when the late-night host poked fun at the various “problematic” Christmas-themed movies centered around royalty — just hours after it was announced his father-in-law, Thomas Markle, was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. “I genuinely thought this was the audition for the Gingerbread Prince saves Christmas in Nebraska,” Harry quipped as he walked out onto the...

What did Ilhan Omar know about the $1B welfare fraud case in her Minnesota district? US Rep. Ilhan Omar’s close ties to the $1 billion welfare scam in her Minnesota congressional district are being uncovered. Omar (D-Minn.) held parties at one of the key restaurants named in the fraud, knew one of its now-convicted owners, and one of her own staffers has also been convicted — both for stealing millions. Omar even introduced the bill that led to $250 million in fraud. Yet she claims to have been completely unaware of it. “[Rep. Omar] knew who these people were. People...
