German supporters left Boston shell-shocked on Monday after their World Cup squad fell to a scrappy Paraguay team in a penalty shootout during the Round of 32. The devastation, it seems, has broken even the team’s most optimistic and joyful supporter. Freddy, or @FreddyLA7 as his handle would read, became the viral sensation of this World Cup. A wide-eyed German youngster, Freddy gained a (seemingly organic) following in the lead-up to the World Cup by posting his travels throughout the United States, discovering the innocent joys of late-night Taco Bell, diverse landscapes, and Ella Langley as he and his German...

Rep. Diana DeGette, a 15-term incumbent, is facing her most serious primary challenge yet from lawyer and PhD student Melat Kiros on Tuesday.

Stunning documentary ‘Traditio,’ spotlighting the SSPX priesthood, is a must-watchAlready in the first five minutes of the documentary, far more about the priesthood is expressed than most modern Catholics receive in their entire catechesis.The recently released documentary on the SSPX, Traditio, is a magnificent work of art in the fullest sense. This is not just because of the sheer visible and audible beauty of the film. It is, most profoundly, because the film leaves a mark on you. It will change the way you see the priesthood. If you are on the fence about the SSPX, it will change the...

Unlicensed food trucks have taken over prime spots around the National Mall in Washington, D.C., and this problem persists at the Great American State Fair. A small group of operators runs most of these illegal trucks as a coordinated network, Washingtonian reported. Longtime licensed food truck operator Zack Graybill walked around the National Mall during the fair with reporter Jessica Sidman and observed illegal trucks blocking traffic and hydrants, creating fire hazards, charging high prices and intimidating legal vendors through turf wars. “For all the people eating food right here? The food isn’t being refrigerated. That’s f'ed up. That’s gross,”...

It's been six years and change since the world was sold a hoax made of whole cloth. The lie that was covid was pushed on the American public and the world. Miss-information by the government, for the government, pushed by the democrat's, the news media, the CDC and the holly of holly big PHARM. Eisenhower warned of the military industrial complex and we have seen the birth of the medical industrial complex, "big PHARM". We saw Fauci his hands all over the WuHan lab and gain of function research, ignore the man behind the curtain, nothing to see here move...

The post-pandemic days of coffee badging and logging in from the couch may be coming to an end. More employers have been rolling out novel ways to keep tabs on workers' whereabouts. And now, retail giant Target is doubling down on its attendance policy with a new points system. Starting this September, Target will begin tracking the unexcused tardiness and absences of its store and warehouse workers with a new points system, according to Business Insider reporting confirmed by the company. Staffers' attendance violations will be tallied up and addressed accordingly: a quarter of a point for being more than...

🚨 BREAKING: A @FreeBeacon investigation reveals Rep. Ro Khanna—who rails against the ultra-rich who "hoard wealth"—lives in a $6M D.C. mansion with a four-story elevator while his family's $340M+ fortune sits in the exact trusts, hedge funds, and LLCs he condemns. Those trusts made 4,100+ stock trades worth ~$53M in 2025—even as Khanna leads the push to BAN members of Congress from trading stocks—while he claims "zero knowledge" of the trades. His kids (under 10) hold stakes in three private golf clubs, a $65B wealth firm, and a distressed-debt hedge fund—the same vehicles he attacks—while his wife drives a $190K...

NEW YORK — The largest digital camera ever built is starting to capture images of unseen corners of the universe. The Vera C. Rubin Observatory has officially begun its cosmic survey, meant to capture swathes of the sky in more depth and detail.

Researchers hope Rubin’s observations will help them take a better census of the universe, mapping billions of stars in the Milky Way and billions more galaxies beyond it. It takes pictures...

When Americans think of the beverage that fueled the American Revolution, they usually picture black tea — but it turns out that green tea was just as popular. The Founding Fathers and their contemporaries drank both types of tea, Bruce Richardson, the Kentucky-based founder of Elmwood Inn Fine Teas, told Fox News Digital. British subjects “were as likely to be drinking green tea as black tea, whether you were in Jane Austen [era] England … or you were in colonial Boston,” he added. “There were five teas, all from China, because that was the only country that was exporting tea,”...
