An 18-year-old former Walmart employee from Maine has been arrested over a Snapchat post that showed him posing with a hunting rifle and ammunition outside his ex-workplace with the caption, “Lewiston part 2.” The baby-faced suspect, identified by the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office as Michael Bowden, was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence terrorizing and felony aggravated reckless conduct. Bowden’s selfie showing him brandishing a Savage bolt-action rifle was taken in the parking of the Palmyra Walmart, officials said. “He took a picture of himself in a vehicle in the Walmart parking lot, and in that picture you can see a...

So far, both Sen. Ron Johnson and Sen....

The 34-year-old was serving a life sentence for the murder of his ex-girlfriend at the Chester County Prison, 30 miles west of Philadelphia, when he escaped on August 31 by scaling a wall like a spider. After a bloodied Cavalcante was captured, the SWAT officers in the search team paraded him like a trophy and lined up with a photo of him around 8am EST. The Brazilian, who is in the...

Democratic Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear posed for a photo with a local chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence in 2020 A recently resurfaced photo of Democratic Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear posing with a local chapter of the anti-Christian LGBTQ activist group Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence has lead to some sharp language between his campaign and that of his Republican challenger, state Attorney General Daniel Cameron. "This is just another example of how out of touch Andy Beshear is with our values. He’s the governor of Kentucky, not California," Cameron told Fox News Digital. "The fact that he would host...

German artist Boris Eldagsen has sent shockwaves throughout the world of photography by entering the prestigious annual Sony World Photography Awards with an image that was not what it seemed. He submitted what the judges thought was an old-fashioned, sepia-toned, black-and-white photograph, of two women of different generations. The photo looked like it was taken in the early 20th century, and it won the creative category. ... “My goal was to open a discussion, and I succeeded,” Eldagsen, a 52-year-old photographer from Berlin told EL PAÍS. Last fall, he considered testing the photo contests to see “if they had done...
 

Rings around Uranus! James Webb Space Telescope captures stunning image of ice giant (photo, video)

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured an amazing image of Uranus, showing in great detail the ice giant's ring system, its brightest moons and its dynamic atmosphere. The new observation, made on Feb. 6, follows a similarly stunning photo JWST captured recently of the solar system's other ice giant, Neptune. The new Uranus image shows 11 of the planet's 13 known rings, some of which are so bright that they blend together somewhat. What will really astound astronomers, however, is the fact that JWST's Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) instrument is sensitive enough to have captured the innermost two...

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — As Ohio’s primary approaches, a strict new photo ID requirement is stirring concerns for military veterans and out-of-state college students, in Amish communities and among older voters. Other Republican-led states are moving in the same direction as they respond to conservative voters unsettled by unfounded claims of widespread fraud and persistent conspiracy theories over the accuracy of U.S. elections. Critics characterize such requirements as an overreaction that could end up disenfranchising eligible voters. Ruth Kohake is among those caught up in the confusion over Ohio’s law, which is going into effect this year. The retired nurse...

Remember all that political hay the far left and its media allies made during the Vietnam War about the wickedness of America's South Vietnamese ally and the importance of abandoning that country to the communists? Here's the Pulitzer Prize-winning AP photo that was supposed to prick our consciences and make us turn against that "immoral" war against a communist takeover: There's no doubt about it, the photo is hard to look at. It's crude, rough, wartime justice, a picture of South Vietnamese Police Captain Nguyễn Ngọc Loan coldly executing Viet Cong Captain Nguyễn Văn Lém. The film is even harder...

One of the five Memphis police officers charged with brutally beating a black man to death took photos of his bloodied body and sent it to at least six people. Newly released documents revealed the lengths of misconduct the Memphis police officers displayed after they stopped Tyre Nichols for allegedly driving recklessly - a claim for which no proof has been provided - before mercilessly pepper spraying him, tasing him, and then beating him to death when he tried to escape their assaults. The files show that Officer Demetrius Haley - who first forced Nichols out of his car -...

Josh Hawley of Missouri called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s speech before Congress a “photo op” Thursday.“I didn’t go to the speech, because I didn’t want to be part of a photo op asking for more money from the United States government when they have not given us a single piece of accounting on anything they spent,” Hawley said.Zelenskyy spoke before a joint meeting of Congress Wednesday night following a visit to the White House, calling U.S. aid to the county “an investment in the global security and democracy that we handle in the most responsible way.”Some Republicans, including...

Ohio legislators sent Republican Gov. Mike DeWine a GOP-backed bill Thursday that would require voters to show photo ID at the polls and allow fewer days to request absentee ballots or vote early in person. The measure, which would replace a state law that lets voters present other documents on Election Day, such as utility bills or bank statements, was passed by the House in a 55-32 vote. The bill would also eliminate in-person early voting on the eve of Election Day and trim the amount of time voters can request and submit absentee ballots. Legislators had considered a pair...

Twitter critics slammed Gisele Barreto Fetterman for posting a photo of herself outside the senator-elect’s office with her husband, John Fetterman, partially cropped out of the image. Users mocked the photo for seemingly depicting Mrs. Fetterman as having achieved her fifteen minutes of fame. Some insisted the photo was her leaning into the claim that she was the actual Senate candidate all along, thanks her husband’s cognitive issues caused by his stroke last May. On Tuesday afternoon, Mrs. Fetterman posted the first image outside the senator-elect's new office. In the photo, which depicted the Democrat ditching his usual hoodie and...

Prince William and King Charles exploded into 'torrents of profanity' following comments from Donald Trump about Kate Middleton’s 2012 topless photo scandal, a new book has claimed. After the photographs of the then Duchess of Cambridge sunbathing topless in Provence, France, were published in the French magazine Closer, the business mogul took to Twitter to comment. The former president, 76, tweeted: ‘Kate Middleton is great--but she shouldn’t be sunbathing in the nude--only herself to blame.’ He added: ‘Who wouldn’t take Kate’s picture and make lots of money if she does the nude sunbathing thing. Come on Kate!’ The advance copy...

Gov. Kathy Hochul is getting roasted … over her weekend grilling. Twitter users are mocking the New York governor — who is currently running to be elected to her first full term in office — after she posted a photo of herself grilling burgers and dogs on Sunday that seemed very staged. “Great day for a barbecue, New York,” Gov. Kathy Hochul wrote in the post alongside a photo of her wearing a perfectly white dress and even cleaner white apron wrapped around it while holding a hamburger patty on a spatula. Twitter critics said it looked clear from the...
