New heart-pounding footage shows the moment three survivors sprint free from their burning jet after it slammed onto a Florida interstate and killed two others earlier this week. The trio can be seen rushing out of the wreckage, which was covered in bright orange flames and billowing black smoke as it lay on I-75, the video shared with Local 10 News shows. “Is there anybody else in there?” Kyle Cavaliere, a passing motorist who stopped to assist, shouted at the survivors. “Yes! Our pilots! Our pilots!” a woman can be heard shouting back as her coworker incoherently rambles beside her....

In 2022, Mason Herring, a Texas attorney, dissolved numerous abortion pills in his wife’s cup of water. Though the baby in Catherine Herring’s womb ended up surviving the attempted murder, Mr. Herring pleaded guilty Wednesday to poisoning his wife. The Herrings were reportedly going through marital struggles back in 2022 but decided to start working on their relationship more as time went on. In February, Mrs. Herring became pregnant. Then, starting in March, Mr. Herring began slipping the pill Cyrux, an abortion pill sold in Mexico, into his wife’s drinks. (Cyrux is the same as misoprostol, the first of two...

The video is damning evidence for all to see that the UNRWA was a de facto arm of HAMAS. The world can follow the Lt Col as he tours the tunnel under the UN HQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QqGsBmQY5Y&t=178s&ab_channel=TheEconomicTimes

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is aiming to vote on reauthorizing and potentially reforming deep state powers next week, according to a report. Politico reported compromise legislation is still being drafted between Republicans on the more privacy-minded Judiciary Committee, more intelligence-community-friendly members on the Intelligence Committee, and representatives from Republican leadership. The bill would largely mirror a bill drafted by Intelligence Committee Republicans, and Judiciary Committee members and other privacy “hawks” would then be allowed to offer amendments, including one that would require a warrant before searching Americans’ private information under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Section...

Florida could soon vote to make abortion a constitutional right, after a campaign to put the amendment on November’s ballot gathered enough signatures. Yet questions are now being raised about the campaign’s legitimacy, after two abortion activists were charged with putting fake signatures on the petition. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) charged two paid petition collectors with submitting phony signatures. The two were named in the FDLE press release as 30-year-old George Edward Andrews III and 47-year-old Jamie L. Johnson. The two are accused of having “submitted 133 invalid constitutional amendment petitions in multiple counties,” and were caught...

A university student from Florida has made a habit of getting under the skin of some of the world's richest and most powerful people. How? By telling the rest of us where their private planes are - and how much carbon they emit.Jack Sweeney would like to clarify a few details. For one thing, he thinks Taylor Swift has some good tunes. However, he believes - despite the threat of legal action - that anybody should be able to see where her private jet is headed, and how often it flies. "I like to be fair," he told the BBC...

A man who leaped over a judicial bench and attacked a Nevada judge during a sentencing hearing in Las Vegas last month that was captured in a courtroom video that went viral has now been indicted for attempted murder. A grand jury returned the nine-count indictment against Deobra Redden, 30, in Las Vegas on Thursday. His arraignment is scheduled for Feb. 29. Clark County District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus was about to deliver Redden’s sentence in an attempted battery case on Jan. 3 when he lunged over the bench at her. Courtroom cameras recorded as Holthus’ clerk and a...

55% of Ivy League graduates believe that the U.S. “provides too much individual freedom” compared with just 16% of ordinary U.S. voters. Back in 2019, as I was developing what became the luxury beliefs framework, I read a recently issued chapter published by Cambridge University Press titled “Why Are Elites More Cosmopolitan than Masses?” Authored by a team of social scientists, this 2019 paper reports stunning gaps in political views and outlooks between elites and ordinary people in various western countries. In the introduction, they suggest that elite attitudes are expressions of cultural capital. That is, the large gap in...

Mexican cartels have flooded Montana with fentanyl and meth – by setting up operations on Indian reservations, where law enforcement is scarce, according to a report.

Moderate Senate Democrats were silent this week when Fox News Digital asked for a comment on President Biden's decision to appoint climate czar John Kerry's replacement without Senate confirmation. **SNIP** While Kerry will step down as special presidential envoy for climate (SPEC), Biden will not nominate a direct replacement, and Kerry's staff will report to another State Department official while Podesta coordinates policy with the SPEC office from the White House. The arrangement allows Podesta to sidestep a congressionally mandated Senate confirmation since the SPEC role will technically be left vacant. "Upon Secretary Kerry’s departure, the existing SPEC state team...

When Jessica Romer pulls clothes out of her new washer-dryer, they feel cool and a bit damp but dry to the touch within seconds. Using no electric heating element or natural gas, the unit’s dryer employs a pump to draw in ambient heat from its surroundings, making it 50% more energy efficient than traditional models—though without producing that warm, toasty feel. “It’s different and strange,” said Romer, who lives in northern Florida, “but it does work.” Whether Romer’s heat-pump dryer represents the pinnacle of energy efficiency or just the latest stop on a long climb is part of a debate...

Progressives spent last year torturing home cooks by threatening gas stoves and dishwashers in pursuit of energy efficiency. Now the climate brigade is going after drivers. A new bill in Washington state would give regulators the ability to ban tires that create a drag on fuel efficiency. The proposal would give the state Department of Commerce authority to prevent the sale of replacement tires that the state says have too much “rolling resistance,” which decreases the fuel efficiency of the vehicles. Rolling resistance depends largely on the weight and depth of a tire tread, the grippy thick part that keeps...

The entry of Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.) into Montana’s Senate race is threatening the party with a bitter and bruising primary ahead of a general election seen as central to its effort to regain control of the upper chamber in November. Rosendale, a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, officially filed to enter the GOP race Friday, jumping in alongside businessman Tim Sheehy, who is seen by many members of party leadership as the stronger candidate. Both men are looking to take on Sen. Jon Tester (Mont.), one of the most vulnerable Democratic incumbents up for reelection this year....

President Joe Biden will visit East Palestine, Ohio this Friday, finally making good on his promise to tour the site of the Norfolk Southern train derailment that unleashed a brew of toxic chemicals into the environment more than a year ago. News of the Democrat’s visit came after he endured fierce criticism from Republicans for failing to visit the beleaguered community since the Feb. 3, 2023 environmental disaster. “The President will travel to East Palestine, Ohio to discuss how the Administration is continuing to work with state and local officials to hold Norfolk Southern accountable and support the community as...

Hundreds of anti-Israel protesters stormed inside New York’s Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) on Saturday afternoon, forcing it to close its doors early. Arts and culture website Hyperallergic reports close to 800 pro-Palestinian protesters filled the museum’s atrium in protest of alleged investments into Israel’s military weapons by the museum’s trustees. The protesters distributed more than 1,000 imitation MoMA pamphlets criticizing trustees Leon Black, Larry Fink, Paula Crown, Marie-Josée Kravis and Ronald S. Lauder, the report states, and hung a banner over the lobby that read “MoMA Trustees Fund Genocide, Apartheid, and Settler Colonialism.”

We live in a corrupt environment in which, increasingly, words are used to signify the opposite of their actual meaning. Thus, Democrats often use the word “democracy” to mean its precise opposite. This is a fine example:Jonathan Turley @JonathanTurley · Follow Democratic Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold has denounced the Supreme Court as "not friendly to democracy" after the cold reception to Colorado's effort to block Trump from the ballot. https://foxnews.com/media/colorado-sec-state-says-scotus-not-friendly-democracy-ahead-trump-ballot-ruling… That now includes apparently Justices Kagan and Jackson...So “democracy” is when a state’s Supreme Court votes 4-3 to bar a leading presidential candidate from the ballot, and when...

The fancy schmancy suites (which cost $2.5 million) will have an equally high-end menu. Think: shrimp cocktail tower, king crab fried rice, wagyu tenderloin, lobster and steak quesadillas, and breakfast for dinner with buttermilk fried chicken and waffles with maple syrup.

Texas agriculture commissioner says ESG policies 'will have a devastating impact on US agriculture and world food security'Climate change policies and environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards will have an outsized negative impact on the U.S. agriculture industry, according to a new report shared with FOX Business. The report — published Wednesday by the free market think tank Buckeye Institute — is titled "Net-Zero Climate-Control Policies Will Fail the Farm" and outlines how farmers will see their operational costs rise by an estimated 34% as a result of net-zero ESG policies. While the report states its findings were "predictable and...

Some of the grit we had in 1814 would have taken care of Mexico and this invasion years ago. What happened to the trucker convoy that was headed to Eagle Pass last week? All of a sudden the showdown there has been wiped off the news map. Greg Abbott and the State of Texas aren't being mentioned anywhere. Neither is DC. Wonder what the MSM/FEDS are busy cooking up. Looks like a blackout to me.
