"We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; "Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;" "For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come." Matthew 16...

Video NEW YORK - Police sources have told FOX 5 NY that a person of interest is in custody after a murdered woman's body was found inside a sleeping bag in Manhattan last week. The body of 31-year-old Yazmeen Williams was found stuffed into garbage bags in front of a building on East 27th Street last Friday. The medical examiner's office determined that her cause of death was a gunshot wound to her head.

Outrage over a misspelling on hero ex-fire chief Corey Comperatore’s jacket that former President Donald Trump brought on stage to his Thursday night speech at the Republican National Convention was misplaced — the firehouse itself misspelled it, a source confirmed to The Post....“His last name wouldn’t fit on the coat, so he had the A removed to make it fit,” Aaron Newborn tweeted...

Diversity is our strength and all that, and we all saw it in our social studies books back in seventh grade: smiling children, all carefully chosen to represent a smorgasbord of races and ethnicities, happily playing together without a care in the world. A recent incident in Queens, N.Y., however, shows how our indefatigable commitment to diversity really works in practice. The New York Post reportedSaturday that “a NYC taxi driver was hit with a hate crime [charge] for allegedly beheading a statue depicting a young Jesus outside a Queens Catholic church, prosecutors said.” The iconoclast who did the deed...

A California judge decided that punishing a seven-year-old schoolgirl for being "racist" is A-OK. What did the li'l bigot do? She drew a BLM picture including drawings of her diverse group of friends and added two "inclusionary" words, which this British news outlet found too vile to share on Twitter: The young Falangist, whom the court referred to as B.B., drew the picture and gave it to a friend who is brown, after a lesson on Martin Luther King, Jr. The girl drew four faces in various shades, from beige to brown, depicting her diverse group of friends. The friend...

A report in the Saudi-based Al Arabiya news outlet cites sources claiming that the Houthi terror group fired a ballistic missile and four drones at Israel overnight. The missile and three of the drones were reportedly shot down by US forces based in the region, and only the fourth drone managed to reach Tel Aviv, where it apparently exploded in the air, with the shrapnel killing one person and wounding others.

Former President Donald Trump took the stage in the final hour of the Republican National Convention Thursday and delivered a deeply heartfelt, and harrowing, address just days after he miraculously survived an assassin’s bullet — vowing to heal and unite the country. The powerful speech, which he wrote after his terrifying near-death experience, was a departure from his usual bombastic and brazen rhetoric. He only referred to his political foe, President Biden, by name once — but avoided any of the sneering nicknames he has used to denounce the president in the past, such as “Crooked Joe.” Instead, he spoke...

Associates of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy have discussed holding a phone call between the two leaders, according to two sources familiar with the matter. One source said the call could occur on Friday, but Reuters was not able to immediately determine if the conversation, which would be their first since the former U.S. president left the White House in 2021, had been confirmed. CNN reported earlier on Thursday that the two leaders had a phone call scheduled on Friday. The news organization warned that the schedule of the former president - who is in...

Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.), who is locked in a tight reelection bid, on Thursday became the second Senate Democrat to call for President Biden to withdraw from the presidential race. “Montanans have put their trust in me to do what is right, and it is a responsibility I take seriously. I have worked with President Biden when it has made Montana stronger, and I’ve never been afraid to stand up to him when he is wrong,” Tester said in a statement. “And while I appreciate his commitment to public service and our country, I believe President Biden should not seek...

JD Vance formally accepted the Republican vice-presidential nomination on Wednesday with a deliberate, and at times divisive, pitch to re-elect Donald Trump in November. Addressing delegates in Milwaukee on the third night of the convention, Vance, the junior senator of Ohio, presented the Republican party as a champion of working-class Americans while denouncing Democrats as out of touch and ineffective. The populist-tinged rhetoric offered the latest sign of how Trump has reshaped the Republican party and rejected much of the traditional conservatism of its past. “From Iraq to Afghanistan, from the financial crisis to the Great Recession, from open borders...

After an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, which sent shockwaves through the U.S. political landscape, Trump Media (NASDAQ: DJT) shares surged more than 60% in the early trading hour on Monday before retracing by 20% to the valuation of $36.89 at the latest close on July 16. However, a fact bound to raise a few questions is that short positions against Truth Social stock doubled between July 1 and July 12, going from 7 to 15 million shares, in what was a record of shares shorted for DJT stock since its trading debut. This surge indicates that individuals...

Several people close to President Biden said on Thursday that they believe he has begun to accept the idea that he may not be able to win in November and may have to drop out of the race, bowing to the growing demands of many anxious members of his party. One of the people close to him warned that the president had not yet made up his mind to leave the race after three weeks of insisting that almost nothing would drive him out. But another said that “reality is setting in,” and that it would not be a surprise...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats at the highest levels are making a critical push for President Joe Biden to rethink his election bid, with former President Barack Obama expressing concerns to allies and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi privately telling Biden the party could lose the ability to seize control of the House if he doesn’t step away from the 2024 race. Biden’s orbit, already small before his debate fumbling, has grown even smaller in recent days. Isolated as he battles a COVID infection at home in Delaware, the president is relying on a few longtime aides as he weighs whether to...
