Megan Rapinoe has been accused of leading the US team's snub of the national anthem ©Getty Images Megan Rapinoe has been accused of leading a "shameful" snub of the American national anthem at the FIFA Women's World Cup which is currently being held in Australia and New Zealand. The majority of the defending champions' line-up has refused to sing the anthem in their group stage matches against Vietnam, The Netherlands, and Portugal. "Megan Rapinoe, she's the leader of all this," journalist Megyn Kelly said on her eponymous podcast. "She's not a starter. "So that's why she's not on camera when...

The government of Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni is driving through a drastic cut in unemployment benefits as it argues there are plenty of jobs available across the country. The unemployment rate in Italy has been declining for months and is now at its lowest - 7.4% - since 2009, according to ISTAT, the national statistics agency. Ms Meloni, the leader of the hard-Right Brothers of Italy party, is planning to phase out the so-called “citizens wage”, which amounts to 550 euros a month for some of the nation’s poorest citizens. The benefit, which was introduced by the previous populist...

The pill works by killing a mutated protein which helps cancers to repair Scientists hope it can be used as a standalone therapy or alongside treatments Scientists have developed a holy grail cancer drug that kills all solid cancer tumors while leaving other cells unharmed. The new molecule targets a protein present in most cancers that helps tumors grow and multiply in the body. It is significant because this protein - the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) - was previously thought to be 'undruggable'. The drug was tested on 70 different cancer cells in the lab - including those derived...

A former teacher at a K-12 school affiliated with Liberty University has been charged with sexual misconduct with a minor—which was finally disclosed to students’ families last week, three months after the fact. But multiple parents say the school is minimizing the potential harm, and some details from administrators are in conflict. Braxton Wyatt Carter, 29, faces charges in Campbell County, Virginia, of two counts of consensual sex with a child age 15 years or older. The charges stem from an alleged incident in 2019, case information shows. Records indicate Carter was jailed April 7 and bonded out the same...

I've thought about this a lot since they explained what theyre doing.

Mohamed Bazoum is the president of the Republic of Niger.I write this as a hostage. Niger is under attack from a military junta that is trying to overthrow our democracy, and I am just one of hundreds of citizens who have been arbitrarily and illegally imprisoned. This coup, launched against my government by a faction in the military on July 26, has no justification whatsoever. If it succeeds, it will have devastating consequences for our country, our region and the entire world. Our government came to power through a democratic election in 2021. Any attempt to overthrow a lawful government...

“Jaws 2” child actor Marc Gilpin has died. He was 56. The actor was mostly known for playing Sean Brody, the young son of Roy Scheider’s Martin Brody, in the 1978 shark-infested sequel. His sister and “Frasier” actress Peri Gilpin confirmed the news of his death on Tuesday to the Hollywood Reporter. Marc suffered from glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer, and died at his home in Dallas, Texas, on July 29. Peri, known for playing Frasier’s producer Roz Doyle on the sitcom, also paid tribute to her brother and his wife, Kaki Gilpin, in an emotional Instagram post. “Kaki...

Levin’s public advice to President Trump’s legal team involved encouraging them “to seek an emergency hearing before the U.S. Supreme Court.” This SCOTUS hearing would not be called to decide the validity of any of the former president’s legal issues but “to at least temporarily halt the abomination of this legal warfare that is unfolding in front of us.” With this lawfare, Levin explained, “the Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans are unashamedly celebrating the use of the courts by the Biden administration and Democrat DA’s to further their political wishes, as the rest of the nation watches in shock.” “The Biden...

Barack Obama told Joe Biden he will do whatever it takes to help with his re-election bid. During a private lunch at the White House, the former president warned Biden that Trump will be a formidable candidate in the 2024 presidential race.The two were catching up over lunch and they cut a video together for fundraising purposes. The lunch took place in late June and some details are just now coming out. Those familiar with the lunch say, anonymously, that Biden was relieved to get reassurances from Obama that he will help. The thought is that Obama is still...

The dueling governors, Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Gavin Newsom (D-CA) have agreed to debate. Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity will moderate a debate between the two potential presidential candidates. Newsom isn’t an officially declared candidate for president but he is definitely running a shadow campaign. DeSantis is currently a distant second in the Republican presidential primary race. The two men have been going back and forth in a war of words ever since Newsom started going after DeSantis and his successes in Florida. Hannity has interviewed Newsom and I give credit to Newsom for going into the lion’s den. He...

Popular Republican Kari Lake spoke out on Thursday surrounding the 2020 election during an appearance on Steve Bannon’s War Room on Real America’s Voice. This interview followed former President Trump’s latest arraignment on speech crimes in Washington DC. During the discussion, Lake posited that the conflict American citizens are currently witnessing is one between “We the People” and the “tyrannical” government. “Well, yeah, it’s pretty obvious that it’s we the people versus our tyrannical government right now. And there’s only one candidate who’s willing to stand up to that swamp or the tyranny, and that’s President Donald J. Trump,” said...

I have to say that there’s one guy at CNN who seems to be willing to go out on a limb (for that network) to drop data that may not be good for Joe Biden and the Democrats. That’s Harry Enten.Enten just dropped some polling news that’s not going to make Joe Biden and the Democrats happy.Now, as I say with every poll, it’s early, and it’s a poll. It’s an indication – things can change. But it’s looking good for former President Donald Trump, not so much for Joe Biden.Enten explains that despite inflation easing some, Biden’s approval hasn’t...

The Department of Education has released statistics on females versus males earning college degrees. By 2027, it is projected that 60 percent of college degrees will go to females and less than 40 percent will go to males. This represents a total reversal from 1968, when males earned roughly 60 percent of college degrees and females earned roughly 40 percent.Despite the fact that women are soon expected to earn 60% of all college degrees, American universities and colleges continue to offer about 10 times more female-only scholarships than male-only scholarships.

Bryan Kohberger’s alibi has just been released. He said that at the time that four University of Idaho students were murdered, he was driving. He doesn’t say where he was driving. He doesn’t say who might have seen him when he was driving. He doesn’t give any details about his driving at all. He only says that he was driving.Now listen to the lyrics of this 1980 song “Drivin'” by Pearl Harbor and the Explosion. The lyrics are exactly the same as Kohberger’s alibi.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZDka84E4bg

Looks like there are more problems with that indictment from Special Counsel Jack Smith, even as it just getting started with the arraignment of former President Donald Trump on Thursday.Trump entered a not guilty plea to the four counts, which included conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.According to a report from CBS News’ Catherine Herridge, Tim Parlatore, who is the attorney for former NYPD Police Commissioner Bernie Kerik, provided records to Jack Smith on July 23.

It was almost like they had forgotten that something had happened in their town for 5-10 minutes while...

Last week I wrote about the discovery of a secret China-linked biolab in an ostensibly empty warehouse outside Fresno California. It was, needless to say, a disturbing story. We aren’t talking about some sterile, well-controlled biological research facility that hadn’t kept up with all its paperwork. No, this was a hidden lab piled with chemicals, boxes, refrigerators with chemicals and 20 deadly viruses, and genetically engineered mice that had been bred to catch and spread human viruses like COVID-19. It was in an ostensibly abandoned warehouse, and when the inspectors showed up the lab equipment had been hastily turned off...
