    Police said they believe Jeremy Theron Smith committed a hate crime when he shot three women of Korean descent. Jeremy Theron Smith, the man accused of shooting three Korean women in a Dallas hair salon last week, had delusions about Asian people attempting to harm him, according to an arrest-warrant affidavit. Smith faces three charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in Wednesday’s shooting, according to jail records. Police are also investigating whether two other recent shootings could be linked to the attack at the salon. It is unclear whether he has an attorney. The shooter had ‘delusions’ about...

  • Gen. Mark Milley breathes a sigh of relief: A 'general' emerges who's even worse than he is: How competent does a general have to be to lose nearly 500 troops at one Ukrainian river?

    It must be good times for U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, Gen. Mark Milley. Just as Jimmy Carter breathes a sigh of relief that he's no longer America's worst president, Milley, who commanded the disastrous U.S. Afghanistan pullout, is no longer the world's worst general.That 'honor' now goes to Vlad Putin, who, according to The Guardian, citing U.S. intelligence sources, is the "general" who directly, specifically, brought Russia its biggest military failure in its "special operation" against Ukraine. He was out there playing "colonel," the report said.It was ugly.According to the New York Times:On May 11, the Russian command...

    Multiple anonymous senior officials told reporters on Tuesday leftist President Joe Biden is planning to soon ease sanctions on dictator Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela, including sanctions that prevent negotiations between American oil companies and Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA). PDVSA is Venezuela’s state-run oil corporation. Venezuela is home to the world’s second-largest known oil reserves (after the United States) and, prior to the rise of socialism in the late 1990s, was Latin America’s wealthiest nation. Under Maduro and his predecessor Hugo Chávez, the Venezuelan socialist regime replaced experienced engineers and corporate leaders at PDVSA with inexperienced cronies, resulting in a catastrophic...

    United States officials say that Russia blocked the U.S. Embassy from visiting detained WNBA star Brittney Griner multiple times in May.In February, Russian officials detained Griner after allegedly finding cannabis vape cartridges in her luggage. Since then, Griner has reportedly had her detention stays extended at least twice, including in the last week....On Tuesday, a State Department spokesperson confirmed that Secretary of State Antony Blinken had a private conversation with Cherelle Griner, Brittney's wife, according to The Hill.

    ◾U.S. gasoline and diesel prices are at record highs and show no sign of falling or of denting demand. ◾Refining capacity has shrunk dramatically since 2020 due to the covid pandemic, driving fears of a supply crisis. ◾It is looking increasingly likely that the only cure for these high prices would be a recession, a cure that could be as bad as the disease. U.S. gasoline and diesel prices are soaring to record highs nearly every day these days, as crude oil prices hold above $110 a barrel, the Russian invasion of Ukraine upends global crude and refined product trade...

    Five years ago, my son was deciding on a college, and in the end, it came down to U.C. Berkeley or Rice University. He picked Rice because it was smaller and provided more opportunities, and it made his parents happy, because we knew that Berkeley would be a hostile place for a conservative student. However, our college experience proved that as far as ideology is concerned, there is no right choice today, no matter which college you pick. Considering that almost half of Rice students come from Texas, we were surprised to discover how liberal the student population was. "Culture...

    Dr. Paul Patey knows a young man could lose his life unless he does something. The ambulance he's in races toward St. John's, carrying a teenager who desperately needs to have blood drained from his recently injured brain. Armed with a scalpel and a drill he borrowed from a maintenance man at the William H. Newhook Community Health Centre in Whitbourne, Patey tells the paramedic driving to find a safe spot to stop so he can try to bore a hole in the young man's skull. "I took the drill and put it against the bone," Patey recalled. "I took...
  • 5 Warning Signs You’re Not Getting Enough Magnesium

    Food With Magnesium Many popular foods contain magnesium, including almonds, avocado, bananas, cashews, dark chocolate, and peanuts. Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a role in muscle relaxation, blood pressure regulation, and nerve function. Magnesium is also involved in the production of energy from food. That’s why some people call it the “energy mineral.” Despite its importance, not everyone gets enough. Magnesium deficiency is relatively common in Western diets because so many people eat a heavily processed diet low in magnesium. Plus, they eat too few whole grains, nuts, seeds, and leafy green vegetables naturally high in magnesium. According...

    A rather peculiar moment occurred during the Congressional hearings on Unidentified Aerial Phenomenal (UAPs, aka, UFOs) Tuesday (May 17). Congressman Mike Gallagher (R-Wis) asked a question about the 1967 Malmstrom Air Force Base incident, and got a rather astonishing, shall we call it, non-reply. Scott Bray, the deputy director of Naval Intelligence, responded that he knew nothing of the event, other than that it has received some publicity outside of official channels. Of course, we cannot expect that the foremost people leading the UAP investigations, especially at this initial stage, will know everything about every reported incident going back decades....

Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) called for Republicans in his district to “rally behind the Republican ticket” in November after he lost the GOP primary for his seat on Tuesday. “Congratulations to @ChuckEdwards4NC on securing the nomination tonight,” Cawthorn tweeted late Tuesday. “It’s time for the NC-11 GOP to rally behind the Republican ticket to defeat the Democrats’ nominee this November,” he added.

    At the White House press briefing last Dec. 6, press secretary Jen Psaki made it clear that President Joe Biden wanted the People's Republic of China to pay a price for its human rights abuses. He would do so by declining to send any U.S. government officials to the Beijing Winter Olympics, which would be held in February. "The Biden administration," Psaki said, "will not send any diplomatic or official representation to the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympic Games given the PRC's ongoing genocide and crimes against humanity in Xinjiang and other human rights abuses." "U.S. diplomatic or official...

    U.S. Rep. Madison Cawthorn, R-N.C., was defeated Tuesday night in the Republican primary, delivering former President Donald Trump a rare loss this election season when it comes to endorsements. The youngest member of Congress, some argued that Cawthorn wasn’t quite ready for primetime as he got mired in a number of controversies that may or may not have been of his own making. He lost out to an established GOP politician, state Sen. Chuck Edwards, who was backed by Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., and former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, among others. Trump offered a last-minute boost for the freshman congressman,...

    his much is certain about the death of Shireen Abu Akleh, the Palestinian-American journalist who was killed in Jenin on May 11: one side, that of Israel, has been insistently calling for a joint investigation with the Palestinians, and possibly with American representatives, too, into her killing. Israel wants especially to study the bullet retrieved from her body and the helmet she was wearing at the time. The Palestinians, on the other hand, insist that the IDF soldiers killed Abu Akleh, but refuse to produce the bullet lodged in her skull for Israeli inspection, and refuse to join with Israel...

    Researchers have found over 1,700 asteroid trails in archived Hubble data from the last 20 years. While many of the asteroids are previously known, more than 1,000 are not. What good are another 1,000 asteroids? Like all asteroids, they could hold valuable clues to the Solar System's history. As time passes and more and more telescopes perform more and more observations, their combined archival data keeps growing. Sometimes discoveries lurk in that data that await new analytical tools or renewed efforts from scientists before they're revealed. That's what happened in an effort called the Hubble Asteroid Hunter. In 2019 a...
