Casey Anthony has given her first on-camera interview more than a decade after she was acquitted of murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee. The woman once dubbed the “most hated mom in America” by Nancy Grace appears in an official teaser for the three-part docu-series which shows her nervously playing with her hair, blinking and twitching her mouth as she awaits to speak. With concern etched on her brow, Anthony is asked, “Why talk to me now, when you’re not getting creative control?” The camera cuts just as she appears about to answer, teasing viewers with the message: “Casey Anthony speaks.”

Incumbent Matt Gaetz defeated Democratic challenger Rebekah Jones Tuesday night in the race for the Florida District 1 Congressional seat. Gaetz's victory Tuesday night means he will serve his fourth term as Congressman for District 1. Gaetz was confident on Election Day, telling WEAR News he would get close to winning every precinct across our four counties by the end of the night. He also says, as Congressman, he will continue to be "laser-focused" on Northwest Florida's military mission, as well as securing the border and combating inflation. “I am laser-focused on Northwest Florida’s military mission," Gaetz said. "Making sure...

A new study has shown that ketosis—a state in which the body primarily uses dietary fats as energy sources—may have positive effects on kidney function in people affected by hereditary polycystic kidney disease. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, or ADPKD, is the most common hereditary kidney disease and causes about 10% of all cases of kidney failure. The aim of the clinical trial was to demonstrate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of ketogenic diet as a therapy for people with ADPKD. For the study, patients were divided into three groups. One group followed a ketogenic diet for three months. The...

Brad Raffensperger, Georgia's incumbent secretary of state, held off a challenge from Democratic state Rep. Bee Nguyen on Tuesday night, marking a major rebuke of former President Donald Trump's influence in the state. Raffensperger and Gov. Brian Kemp, who also won reelection Tuesday night, became the face of Republican opposition to Trump's election fraud claims in 2020. Both officials publicly rebuked Trump's allegations, and Raffensperger gained even more "resistance" notoriety after a recorded Jan. 2, 2021, call with Trump was made public. Raffensperger could be heard on the call vocally defending Georgia's election integrity and refusing to influence the state...

New York Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis sailed to victory in her rematch against former Democratic Rep. Max Rose. Malliotakis had ousted Rose, a decorated ex-Army officer, in 2020 after he served just a single term, and was able to hold onto the seat. Albany Democrats had tried to unseat Malliotakis with redrawn congressional lines that would have added liberal parts of Brooklyn – including Park Slope – to her conservative, majority Staten Island 11th district. But a judge struck down the so-called “Hochulmander” — redistricting done under Dem Gov. Kathy Hochul — and a special master redrew the lines, saving...

New research found that adult RA patients starting opioids had twice the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) compared to patients starting nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Venous thromboembolism is a serious, but preventable, condition that occurs when a blood clot forms in a vein. Pain management is a priority for most patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Even with well-controlled disease, around 60% of patients continue to experience pain, with few safe pharmacological strategies, including NSAIDs and opioids, to help manage it. One concern with NSAIDs is the increased risk of major cardiovascular events, which is already heightened in patients with RA....

Republican Ted Budd defeated Cheri Beasley on Tuesday in the race for an open Senate seat in North Carolina, disappointing Democrats who saw it as a key pickup opportunity. Mr. Budd had received slightly more than 50% of the vote when NBC News and ABC News called the race for the Republican, who is a current House member. He will replace retiring Sen. Richard Burr, another Republican, in the upper chamber. Ms. Beasley, a former chief justice of the state Supreme Court, had positioned herself as one of the “flippable five” alongside Democrats trying to swipe Senate seats from the...

VANDALIA, Ohio (LifeSiteNews) — On the eve of the 2022 midterm elections, former President Donald Trump announced Monday that he would be making a “very big announcement” on November 15, widely believed to be his bid to run in a 2024 presidential campaign. Speaking to supporters at a rally in Vandalia, Ohio, on Monday night, Trump thwarted speculation that he was about to announce a 2024 presidential campaign that evening. Instead, he revealed he would be making a “very big announcement” next Tuesday. “Two years ago, we were a great nation. And we will be a great nation again,” he...

Democrat Stacey Abrams has called Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to concede, according to the Atlanta Courier Journal, signaling the end of their rematch of 2018's close race. Abrams had run a close race but never quite managed to surpass Kemp in pre-Election Day polls.

Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan has been projected to win reelection in New Hampshire, beating out Republican Don Bolduc in what was once seen as a strong pickup opportunity for the GOP. Hassan’s victory is key for Democrats in their quest to maintain control of the evenly divided Senate. Bolduc, a retired Army brigadier general, was not the preferred choice of establishment Republicans to take on Hassan. Their first pick was GOP Gov. Chris Sununu, but he passed on running. GOP-allied groups spent millions on ads during the primary attacking Bolduc as a weak candidate and boosting state Senate President Chuck...

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) is projected to defeat Republican nominee Lee Zeldin and win her first full term in the governor’s mansion. NBC News and ABC News called the race for Hochul shortly after 11 p.m. E.T. Headed into Election Day, Hochul was leading Zeldin, a Trump-endorsed congressional lawmaker, by just a few points. The race was largely seen as a toss-up in the final stretch. Hochul was the lieutenant governor under former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), who stepped down last fall amid allegations of sexual harassment and accusations he covered up nursing home deaths during...

Former President Bill Clinton was grilled about his alleged friendship with late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein in a video that has been viewed more than a million times.

Republican candidate JD Vance has defeated Democrat Tim Ryan in Ohio’s senate race after the pro-life canddiate exposed Ryan’s radical pro-abortion views. When the race was called, Vance led Ryan 53-46 in the midwestern state. After the race was called, Ohio Right to Life’s Director of Communications, Elizabeth Whitmarsh, stated, “Ohio Right to Life is extremely encouraged by Vance’s victory tonight, as we have supported him from the beginning. He has proven time and time again that he will fight for the lives of every Ohioan, born and pre-born.” Throughout the campaign, Tim Ryan attempted to castigate J.D. Vance’s pro-life...

Joe Biden's climate change envoy John Kerry had an uncomfortable encounter with Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro on Tuesday - a man with a $15 million Justice Department bounty on his head. The Venezuelan leader was charged by the DoJ in March 2020 with nacro-terrorism, corruption and drug trafficking, and the U.S. offered a $15 million reward for 'information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of Maduro'. Kerry, who was Secretary of State under Barack Obama, from 2013 to 2017, was in the Egyptian resort of Sharm-el-Sheikh for the COP27 climate change conference. Maduro, one of 90 world leaders at the...
