In an amazing announcement this week the Biden administration has declared they will be reopening a facility in Texas this week in order to temporarily house hundreds of migrant youths who have recently entered the country. If your head just tilted like a dog hearing a harmonica, you are not alone.

Steve Sisolak announced a plan to launch so-called Innovation Zones in Nevada to jumpstart the state’s economy by attracting technology firms, Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Wednesday.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 31-year-old New York darling of the progressive wing of the Democratic Party.

The building shares its name with the one of the deepest parts of the ocean and two Nasa spacecraft. One was the command module for the Apollo 17 Moon mission while the other was part of the Space Shuttle fleet, and the first...

On today's Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough slammed evangelicals for their focus on abortion. No fewer than four times, Scarborough called evangelicals' concern about abortion "bizarre." Scarborough boasted of having always voted pro-life. But his message to evangelicals was clear: don't make such a big deal about abortion. Come on over to the liberal side. Even if in doing so you will be supporting abortion not just until birth, but in some cases beyond. Take Barack Obama, who opposed the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act back when he was in the Illinois Senate.So who's "bizarre" now? Scarborough's comments were made in the...

Sharks found living in active volcano is one of the world's enduring ocean mysteries As the camera dropped into the roiling orange waters of one of the world's most active submarine volcanoes, scientists were expecting to see plenty of activity; what they weren't expecting to find was hordes of sharks thriving in the explosive crater.\ Reef sharks, hammerheads and scalloped hammerheads all swam up to the lens, unbothered by the fact an eruption had taken place shortly before.
