Switzerland faced Serbia yesterday in Leskoc within the League of Nations. Serbia managed to score a 2:0 victory, achieving the first triumph in this edition of this competition. The president of Serbia, Aleksander Vu?i?, and the president of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, were also seen in the 8,000-seat stadium. At one point, the Serbian president celebrates the victory with a completely anti-Western and provocative gesture. Vucic took out of his pocket and unfurled the united flags of Serbia and Russia. This action of Vucic is not a coincidence, as Albanians from Kosovo also play for Switzerland.

Material labeled as being from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has allegedly been found among weapons stockpiled by Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorists at positions along Lebanon’s border with Israel. Israel has been attacking, exposing, and destroying Hezbollah positions along the border, including weapons caches. These were used to attack Israeli communities, and to prepare for an October 7-style invasion of northern Israel. A video published by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers shows a group of infantrymen surrounding a stockpile of weapons. As the camera pans to the right, a box labeled “USAID” appears among a set of anti-tank missiles.

While campaigning for Kamala Harris, Bill Clinton admits if the Biden-Harris regime properly vetted illegal aliens Laken Riley would still be alive. Clinton also states we need illegals because our country’s birth rate is low.

WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris is facing allegations of plagiarism after numerous passages from the Democratic presidential nominee’s 2009 book “Smart on Crime” were discovered to closely resemble — or perfectly match — wording from other sources.Harris, then San Francisco’s district attorney, wrote the book promoting a reform-minded approach to prosecuting crimes alongside ghostwriter Joan O’C. Hamilton — who told The Post when contacted Monday that she was surprised to learn about the alleged copying.Conservative activist Christopher Rufo published the allegations Monday and credited an investigation by Austrian “plagiarism hunter” Stefan Weber — with Rufo posting screenshots on X...

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WATE) — Travelers between East Tennessee and western North Carolina will continue to take alternate routes in the aftermath of Helene. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) said Monday a stretch of Interstate 40 in the Pigeon River Gorge would remain closed indefinitely as efforts to repair parts of the interstate damaged by Hurricane Helene late last month continue. Crews started operations in the Gorge last week, NCDOT said on Monday, with a temporary shoring operation underway to save what was left of the westbound lanes. Crews will drill soil nails in order to stabilize the westbound...

Pennsylvania has emerged as the most crucial battleground state in one of the wildest presidential races in memory — with both campaigns battling for every last vote in the state that former President Donald Trump won eight years ago by just 44,000 votes. Trump, who lost Pennsylvania in 2020, and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee, are both crisscrossing the commonwealth in hopes of eking out a win in the potentially decisive state. Pennsylvania is unique in many ways — it’s closely divided, and it’s geographically diverse. It is also changing, according to an Inquirer analysis of election data...

Explanation: Go outside at sunset tonight and see a comet! C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) has become visible in the early evening sky in northern locations to the unaided eye. To see the comet, look west through a sky with a low horizon. If the sky is clear and dark enough, you will not even need binoculars -- the faint tail of the comet should be visible just above the horizon for about an hour. Pictured, Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS was captured two nights ago over the Lincoln Memorial monument in Washington, DC, USA. With each passing day at sunset, the comet and its...

DENVER, CO — A local 10-year-old is being taken to court for illegal discrimination after a gay couple claimed he refused to bake them a gay wedding cake. The couple says they still haven't recovered from the ugly hate incident. "This proves that the LGBTQ+ community still faces horrific discrimination in this country," said Chez Fetley, the man who was denied service by 10-year-old Florian Simpson. "I asked the boy to bake me a beautiful gay wedding cake with rainbows and dildos all over it, and he looked me right in the eye and said: 'I'm sorry mister, I only...

Joe Biden is considering sending American troops to operate a missile defence system in Israel as the country prepares for an exchange of attacks with Iran. The Pentagon has reportedly discussed deploying a Terminal High Altitude Area Defence (THAAD) missile battery, which could be used to intercept Iranian missiles, and would be operated by US military personnel. It comes as Washington prepares for Israel’s response to Iran’s missile attack of Oct 1, which is expected within days and could include a missile strike on military facilities in Iran. Israel’s retaliation is expected to provoke a counter-strike from Iran – a...

On Sunday, PJ Media's Scott Pinsker said that there would be a surefire way of telling that Kamala Harris legitimately thinks she's losing the election."As long as Kamala Harris believes she’s winning, she’s not going to take any risks. No big gambles, no bold moves," he wrote. He noted several signs of genuine panic from her campaign, and number one was that "Kamala Harris will suddenly open up and do a ton of interviews — including hostile interviews."Lo and behold, on Monday, Fox News announced that Harris will do a sit-down interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier.Democratic presidential candidate...

Power restoration is nearing the end in Florida less than a week after Hurricane Milton, according to recent figures. Well over 3 million were without power in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton — a Category 3 storm that barreled down on Florida’s west coast Wednesday before making its way across the state, exiting off the east coast. The storm included at least 116 tornado warnings with 19 that touched down before the storm made official landfall. Prior to the storm, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) previewed roughly 50,000 linemen ready to restore power in the state thanks to out-of-state crews on...

Global Baby BustWhy aren’t people having babies?Cutting across language, geography, and culture, one societal trend is beginning to loom larger than any other: falling birth rates.Millie Giles10/13/24 8:00AMFor a large part of the last century, after a post-war baby boom saw 76 million births over just 18 years in the US alone, fears of overpopulation were rife.In 1968, Stanford entomologist Paul Ehrlich published the landmark book “The Population Bomb,” which posited that overcrowding was not only the cause of many of the era’s issues, but would eventually lead to dystopian outcomes of famine, pollution, ecological disaster, and possibly even societal...

The emergence of a video in which Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and podcaster Liz Plank appear to be simulating Holy Communion using a Dorito chip has drawn widespread criticism from Christians. That this mockery was followed by Plank asking Whitmer if she had ever considered a post-birth abortion for either of her two daughters made things worse. Not one to back down from a fight, Whitmer tried to cast the incident as "just harmless fun. Considering that the traditional Eucharist bread wafer is so tasteless and bland, I'd think churches might want to reconsider replacing it. Doritos are far more...

A whiff of panic in the Morning Joe air today. It began with Joe Scarborough admitting that the race is tied. And you know what they say in football: if he's even, he's leavin'. Because if Trump is even in the popular vote, he is likely leading in the Electoral College. Just ask Hillary Clinton. Jonathan Lemire then admitted that Trump's strategy [which Lemire predictably claimed was "lying'] "might just be working. His base is coming home." Lemire continued: "It's still a tied race. No one's saying that it's over by any means. But the Harris momentum of a month...

The establishment media, with just 21 days until Election Day, published numerous negative headlines about the Harris campaign Monday. The stories are notable because the media are allied with Vice President Kamala Harris and mostly give her positive coverage. Many outlets have outright endorsed her candidacy. The articles suggest the media are warning the Harris campaign of a potential loss. Polling shows former President Donald Trump is running ahead of his 2020 and 2016 performances. Swing state polling indicates Trump is either leading Harris or is within the margin of error. Early voting and voter registrations also appear to benefit...
