Ana Navarro told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that the Faith & Freedom Coalition convention should be named the “your faith takes away my freedom” convention. Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “What was shocking to me was the hypocrisy of the evangelical community, booing at the truth. I mean, we can all have differences of opinions, but the facts remain the same. And, he did these things, so it’s almost like they were going, ‘la la la la la la la la’ like little kids, because they’re still going to vote for him.”

Environmental protest groups have been targeting art history's greatest treasures to raise awareness about climate change. Climate activists turned up the heat this year, decrying the global environmental crisis by targeting internationally renowned art museums’ greatest treasures—and leading many onlookers to wonder how their actions actually connect with the greater good. Just last week, protesters from Just Stop Oil glued themselves to Vermeer’s iconic Girl With a Pearl Earring in the latest of their ongoing art demonstrations, previously focused on the U.K. The same group blasted a Rolex store in London with orange paint less than 24 hours later. In...

Former New Jersey governor and 2024 Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie echoed House Republican calls for a new attorney general, after allegations of interference by Attorney General Merrick Garland into a federal investigation into Hunter Biden. “I’m concerned about the entire Delaware investigation. I think it took too long and produced too little.

“What you have is statistical ties across almost every single recent poll,” said Chris Kofinis, a Democratic strategist and public opinion expert. “Are Democrats discounting the threat that Trump poses even with his series of indictments? Absolutely.” Most political experts believe the 2024 election is likely to be close in terms of the all-important Electoral College and that the number of swing voters will be small. Even in losing, Trump won far more votes than any Republican ever had in battlegrounds such as Arizona, Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada and Michigan.

he much-anticipated recession of 2023 has yet to materialize. Some of the latest economic data point to more signs of strength than weakness. One strategist has a term for what that says about the state of the US economy. "We're calling that a rolling recession," David Bailin, chief investment officer at Citi Global Wealth Investments, told Yahoo Finance. He explained how some sectors of the economy are already in decline, while others, like travel and leisure, are still strong. "Clearly commercial real estate is in recession," he said. "Some of our manufacturing, basic consumer manufacturing is in recession right now."

The four fish traps discovered by mountain hiker Reidar Marstein last summer consist of long poles that have been driven into the seabed. They form the pattern of a fence that has guided the fish into a chamber. From there, Stone Age folks could easily use a fishing net to catch the fish they needed.Each chamber consisted of around 40-50 poles, and the archaeologists have found remains that are as much as 80 centimetres long. They are so well preserved that they 'might as well have been cut last year', they write enthusiastically on KHM's Facebook page.In the Norwegian mountains,...

Windows 10 just loves to create Log files. Those take up space on hard drive. In 28 years of using Windows, I never have found any use for these log files. May be Bill Gates looks at them from your PC. To me they are totally useless, taking up space and slowing down my PC by few micro-seconds for each access. I created this program to delete every one of those log files. Simply double click on the shortcut Logs-Del on your main desktop window and the program does the rest. This program deletes only LOG files, nothing else. Create...

While visiting the US-Mexico border, Republican presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis released his border security plan which calls for an end of birthright citizenship and for him to be able to send the US military into Mexico if necessary. “Joe Biden has failed to meet the most basic responsibility of ensuring the territorial integrity of our country,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said as his plan was unveiled in Texas. “Biden’s gross dereliction of duty has left the southern border in shambles.” The plan, which mirrors many immigration talking points laid out by other Republicans, including GOP rival Donald Trump, also promised...
