Multiple explosions at a factory in Taipei, Taiwan last Friday resulted in at least nine people, including four firefighters, being killed in a fire after parts of the building collapsed and trapped workers. While the loss of life is far more impactful and tragic, the tragedy is also expected to have a significant impact on the golf ball industry around the world.

Rapinoe is a brainwashed and misguided athlete who used her platform to spread rampant misinformation. She could be the poster child of everything that is wrong with the Left. She whined about pay equality, even though her claims were never valid. She championed “equality,” all the while promoting priority and preferences — and weird, radical, and extremist ideas such as the toxic gender ideology and notions that men can be women. She sought to establish a counterculture under the guise of social justice and equality. She played for the United States, but cared more about the name on her back....

Experts on San Francisco, drugs and crime responded to San Francisco Mayor London Breed's Tuesday proposal to require residents who wish to receive welfare services to comply with mandatory drug testing and treatment programs. Breed's announcement comes amid growing pressure to hold back the city’s homeless and fentanyl crises and as challengers to Breed as mayor continue to throw their name in for office in 2024. "She's in trouble," former San Francisco councilman and business owner Tony Hall told FOX News Digital. "She's found her administration is under increasing fire from the voters in San Francisco. She has to do...

House Republicans made an early case why they believe Joe Biden abused the power of his office, and now they are turning their attention to securing the bank records of the president’s son and brother. Hours after finishing his first impeachment inquiry hearing, House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., issued three subpoenas Thursday evening for the personal and business bank records of Hunter and James Biden. Comer said the record demands are key to following the money from foreign sources to its final destination. "One of those steps is gaining insight into where the Biden’s’ foreign money ended...

It’s been called a device “from hell.” Intelligence experts once falsely insinuated it was Russian disinformation. And lawyers for the president's son this month even questioned if it really even exists. Remarkably, the Hunter Biden laptop saga begun four years ago is turning the tables on the FBI, which now is being asked to return the now infamous device and its data to the origin point of a scandal that prompted an impeachment inquiry against the 46th president. Lawyers for Delaware computer shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac this week subpoenaed America’s most famous law enforcement agency, demanding the bureau...

A "psychopath" Baltimore felon with a history of sexual violence who police say murdered a tech entrepreneur and allegedly planned a brutal attack on another couple days earlier has been captured after a two-day manhunt. Jason Dean Billingsley, a 32-year-old who served less than a third of his 30-year sentence for rape, is accused of bludgeoning Pava Marie LaPere to death in her West Franklin Street apartment building.

There are a number of acts referred to as “abominations” in Scripture. These acts are called abominations because they are extremely serious sins. Among the abominations mentioned in Scripture are acts such as child sacrifice, sexual acts with animals, and homosexual acts (Lev. 18:20–30; 20:13), idolatry (Deut. 12:29–31; 13:13–14), divination, sorcery, and necromancy (Deut. 18:9–14). Many conservative Christians are happy to acknowledge that these acts are serious sins. There is one sin, however, that many professing Christians commit on a regular basis without recognizing that it too is an abomination.

French screen legend, Brigitte Bardot, was born on the 28th of September, 1934, in Paris. She has, in different ways, and for two very different sets of beings, been a great libertarian all her life. I believe her own words prove that: “I’m a girl from a good family who was very well brought up. One day I turned my back on it all and became a bohemian ……. I have been very happy, very rich, very beautiful, much adulated, very famous and very unhappy ……” “It is sad to grow old but nice to ripen ………. I gave my...

Bizzare theories are swirling tonight over why the world famous Sycamore Gap tree, which appeared in Kevin Costner's 1991 film Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, was chopped down in the middle of the night, as a 16-year-old boy is quizzed by police. The much-loved landmark at Sycamore Gap, next to Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland. Mystery surrounds how the damage could have been done, with some theorising that 'a professional who knew where they were going to cut' was responsible, perhaps requiring a torch to complete the job at night. It is possible the perpetrator would have required an accomplice to...
