Republicans on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee are accusing acting National Archivist Debra Wall of misrepresenting the National Archives and Records Administration’s (NARA) negotiations with lawyers for former President Donald Trump. Wall informed attorney Evan Corcoran on May 10 that President Joe Biden directed her to determine whether or not Trump should benefit from executive privilege post-presidency. After consulting with the Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel, Wall rejected the request, she wrote to Corcoran.

TWENTY-SECOND WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME LUKE 4:38–44 Friends, in our Gospel, we see Jesus in action. He is always hurrying from place to place, on the go. Today, Luke gives us a sort of "day in the life" of Jesus. And it is quite a day! Our Gospel opens just after the dramatic expulsion of a demon in the Capernaum synagogue. And after entering the house of Simon, Jesus cures Peter’s mother-in-law, and then the entire town comes to his door. He spends the whole evening curing presumably hundreds who were variously afflicted. In the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries,...

I was unaware active duty service members can wear the uniform at political rallies. Ask Defense Secretary Austin if there is an exception to that regulation for Democrat campaign events," the source familiar with the band's inner workings told Fox News Digital.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, the GOP candidate for Senate in Pennsylvania, compared homeless people to "zombies" in a speech that has been criticized for a lack of compassion. "Go down to downtown Philadelphia—I see a little bit in Pittsburgh now too, but more in Philadelphia—there are whole blocks, multiple blocks and areas you can't go," Oz told a crowd gathered in Monroeville, near Pittsburgh, on Monday. "There are addicts walking like zombies into the street with needles sticking out of their necks," he said.

Former President Barack Obama was frequently frustrated with Joe Biden, a new book claims, first as a Democrat senate colleague and then as his vice president. “Shoot. Me.

Bush’s choice for Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice.

Former President Donald Trump suggested FBI agents were reckless with classified documents during the raid at Mar-a-Lago "perhaps pretending it was me who did it."Trump's latest comments about the FBI search at his Florida home were posted Wednesday morning on Truth Social."Terrible the way the FBI, during the Raid of Mar-a-Lago, threw documents haphazardly all over the floor (perhaps pretending it was me that did it!), and then started taking pictures of them for the public to see," Trump said."Thought they wanted them kept Secret? Lucky I Declassified!"The Justice Department in court papers Tuesday said it had evidence that classified...

When Viktor Zolotov, director of the Russian National Guard, briefed his boss, President Vladimir Putin, on Tuesday on the status of military operations in Ukraine, one remark in particular stood out. “I especially want to emphasize that we feel the support of the population in the liberated territories,” Zolotov told a stone-faced Putin. In reality, Russia has been struggling to rally the support of its own troops, according to internal government documents obtained exclusively by Yahoo News that detail drunken acts of insubordination six months into Putin’s invasion. The documents include an incident and homicide report by the Russian Investigative...

Of course this development would drop late at night. The Biden Department of Justice has declared that Donald Trump’s ‘special master’ request to review the documents the FBI seized in their August 8 raid of Mar-a-Lago should be denied on national security grounds. You heard that right; the Justice Department thinks that reviewing the letters to Trump from Kim Jong-un would endanger us irreparably. The cocktail napkins have nuclear codes on them. Photographs of state dinners would lead to nuclear war, and the dinner menus could reveal who killed John F. Kennedy. At least this development has a tinge of...

Duke University volleyball player Rachel Richardson, a black woman, accused someone in the Brigham Young University student section of repeatedly hurling racial slurs during a recent game and BYU school officials "failed to take the necessary steps to stop the unacceptable behavior and create a safe environment." Richardson's statement garnered much attention on social media and within the news. BYU released a statement saying they had banned someone, who was not a BYU student, from future events. Yet, it appears Richardson's version of events are not true. In addition to the racial slurs not being hurled towards Richardson or her...
