  • Ditching his 'Whizzinator' in a patrol car was Florida man's second bad decision of day

    The Flagler County Sheriff's Office has accused a Florida man of coming up with a plan to beat his court-ordered drug test. Executing what on paper might look like a good plan proved to be difficult. His first mistake was climbing behind the wheel on July 14 and driving to submit his urine sample. A deputy stopped James Shepard, 52, as he pulled in, because according to the sheriff's office, his license is suspended. That's a violation of the felony probation he was serving for multiple burglaries and thefts, News 6 reports. He was arrested on charges of violating probation...

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — Secretary of War Pete Hegseth issued a new order that any military member who is discovered to have low testosterone be immediately transferred to the Navy. Hegseth initiated mandatory testosterone testing for all members of the armed forces, and any soldier whose numbers fall below the normal range will instantly be reassigned to the Navy and issued a dandy little sailor outfit. "There are three possible results for your testosterone labs: high, normal, or welcome to the Navy," said Hegseth. "Let's trade in those fatigues for a cute hat and kerchief. Next stop, step up and...
  • After Mail-In Ballots Tallied, Joe Biden Wins L.A. Mayor Race With 81 Million Votes

    LOS ANGELES, CA — After multiple days of late-night mail-in ballot drops finally being tallied, it was discovered that Joe Biden had won the Los Angeles mayoral race with an astonishing 81 million votes. While most cities and states seem to be able to figure out who won and who lost by the end of the day of the election, Los Angeles can take days, weeks, or maybe even months to allow for all the mail-in ballots to trickle in, resulting in a spectacular come-from-behind victory for Biden. In the case of the Los Angeles mayor's race, most voters expected...

    This will leave you sleepless in Seattle. Seattleites are abuzz over sightings of a deformed raccoon whose truncated backbone gives it the appearance of a creature not of this earth. The stubby critter, dubbed “Jimothy” by locals, is being tracked online as excited residents share videos of him traversing backyards and balconies in the Emerald City. “For our 13th anniversary, [we] were graced with the presence of Jimothy the raccoon with short spine syndrome. Praise Jimothy!!” one fan captioned an Instagram video showing him darting along a suburban yard and up a set of stone stairs. Though he hasn’t been...

    DOHA — With the U.S. blockade of the important waterway back on amid renewed hostilities in Iran, President Donald Trump announced that he would secure the Strait of Hormuz by posting an old man who asks you three questions before you may pass. The old man, who was reportedly discovered by U.S. military officials as he guarded a rickety bridge over a chasm in rural Britain known as the Gorge of Eternal Peril, will now be stationed on a dinghy in the Strait of Hormuz, where he will bar the passage of any vessel unless its crew can answer...

    They built careers pretending to be other people. Then Donald Trump came along… and they revealed who they really were. From Jussie Smollett’s fake MAGA hate crime scandal, to Kyle Gass blowing up Tenacious D’s tour with one disgusting joke, to Tom Arnold’s “Trump addiction,” Alec Baldwin’s anti-Trump SNL era, Amy Schumer alienating audiences, Ron Perlman and John Cusack melting down online, Seth Rogen becoming another predictable woke celebrity, and Tom Hanks losing his neutral “America’s Dad” image — this is the story of Hollywood stars who damaged themselves while trying to take down Trump. This is not about Trump...

    A South Florida woman was surprised to receive a new license plate with her vehicle registration renewal that she feels carries an inappropriate message. Pompano Beach resident Nancy Dello Stritto, who is almost 77 years old, opened her mail to find a license plate reading "SQZ A55." She told CBS News Miami that the plate, which can be interpreted to spell out a crude phrase, caused her to go "ballistic." The plate has become a topic of conversation at her retirement community, where opinions are split. While Dello Stritto is unhappy with the configuration, she noted that others, including her...

    The Hill ^ | 07/14/26 | Robby Soave
    A photo from a meeting of the Democratic Socialists of America in Denver, Colo., went viral on X because in the photo, the majority of the gathered lefty radicals are wearing COVID masks. Indeed, the mask wearers clearly outnumber the non-mask wearers. When was this photo taken, you might ask? 2020? 2021, maybe? Nope. It was taken this month, in July of 2026. The photo is of the Denver chapter celebrating democratic socialist Melat Kiros winning her primary against an incumbent Democrat. Commentators on social media brutally mocked the poor sap who posted the photo, and he took it down,...

  • From ‘Cream Abdul-Jabbar’ to ‘Larry Nerd’, Lakers’ Robbie Avila ranks nicknames

    Robbie Avila has heard the chants. He heard the fans inside of Thomas & Mack Center shouting “We Want Rob-bie!” during the second half of the Lakers’ summer league game on Friday against the Thunder. SNIP Cream Abdul-Jabbar — a nickname popularized by Kentucky Sports radio host Matt Jones in 2024 while Avila, who wears protective goggles like NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, was playing at Indiana State before he transferred to Saint Louis for his junior and senior seasons. “It’s one of the most unique nicknames I think I’ve ever seen,” Avila told the Post. But Avila’s personal favorite nickname...

    A former Arizona congressional candidate and ex-Democratic Party leader was arrested last week on charges of felony burglary at an ex-partner’s home.

According to ballotready.org, Westbrook’s professional experience includes serving as the Southwest Regional Co-Chair of the Democratic Socialists of America Immigrant Rights National Working Group from 2019 to the present, and a past stint as Arizona Democratic Party Vice Chair from...

    Brian Poindexter had just finished wolfing down a Reuben sandwich in a deli outside Cleveland when he delivered a message that, coming from a Democratic House candidate in the year 2026, sounded almost provocative. “There’s nothing wrong with being masculine,” Poindexter told me. It’s okay, he said, to be “a manly man.” Poindexter’s own manliness credentials are fully in order. The 46-year-old started working in a machine shop as a teenager and spent years hauling furniture across the country before finding stability as a union ironworker. He drives a Ram Big Horn pickup truck and built, with his buddy turned...

    Newsweek via MSN ^ | July 13, 2026 | Khaleda Rahman
    CNBC’s ranking of the 10 worst states to live in 2026—all of them Republican-led—has drawn criticism from conservatives. The broadcaster gave each state a Quality of Life score based on factors including crime rates, air quality, healthcare access, worker protections and civil rights laws. The Quality of Life category was one of 10 in the outlet’s annual America’s Top States for Business study. Tennessee was ranked the worst state to live in after receiving a score of just 64 out of 290. CNBC noted that Tennessee had one of the highest violent-crime rates in the nation, citing FBI statistics, as...

    Did Sen. Lindsey Graham Die Yesterday in a Russian Airstrike While He Was Visiting a Secret Kamikaze Drone Factory? Researchers are examining the timeline to discover whether or not Graham, who was reportedly still in Ukraine in the early afternoon, would have been able to make it back to DC where he reportedly died of “cardiac arrest” before midnight. Sen. Graham is widely seen as one of the top architects of the NATO/NeoCon strategy to use Ukraine as a pawn to trigger a larger war between Russia and the West. His death is a major blow to warhawks in London...

    A black feminist historian whose work is being labeled as misleading — and who may have lost her cushy academic job — says it all comes down to an attack on black women. The New York Times tells the tale of Kerri Greenidge, whose 2022 book “The Grimkes” was hailed for its narrative about a slaveholding family and its work in the abolitionist movement. Publishers Weekly put the book on its list of that year’s top books, while the American Historical Association handed Greenidge the Joan Kelly Memorial Prize, which honors scholars in women’s history and feminist theory. But the...
