Just before the new year in 2021, the earth in a quiet area of Croatia began to act oddly. A near-perfectly round hole sprang out of nowhere in a garden in Meenani, a hamlet 40 kilometers (24 miles) from Croatia's capital city of Zagreb, measuring 30 meters (98 feet) broad and 15 meters (49 feet) deep. More and more of these huge holes appeared in Meenani and its adjacent village Borojevii during the next few weeks. According to the Croatian Geological Institute, at least 54 totally collapsed sinkholes of various sizes had been documented by the end of January. According...

Cuba is suffering through a summer of dire shortages, from food and electricity to medicine. Fed-up Cubans are taking to the streets in unprecedented protests — and they're voicing their outrage through a song called Patria y Vida — homeland and life.

In strong terms, the song accuses the government of destroying the quality of life in Cuba, a message that quickly found traction with protesters who are demanding change. "No more lies. My people demand freedom. No more doctrines!" the...

Video footage from a pro-transgender speech Caitlyn Jenner gave at the Chicago House Speaker Series in 2015 shows Jenner appearing to brag about sneaking into bedrooms and stealing the clothes of one of the then-adolescent Jenner daughters and trying them on when no one was around. Jenner expressed pride in being “stealthy” about the crossdressing lifestyle for years, so much so that the secret was never uncovered until Jenner was seen with the daughter’s clothes on a CCTV camera. “One daughter was stealing the other daughter’s clothes,” Jenner said. “Okay, so, she set her computer up in the room, and...
