    A Russian military airfield in occupied Crimea was reportedly targeted by a missile strike that caused explosions and a fire early on July 26, Ukrainian media and Russian Telegram channels reported, while Ukrainian energy facilities were again struck by Russian shelling and drones. The Ukrainian TV channel Suspilne, citing local residents, reported explosions in the cities of Saky and Yevpatoria in Crimea. "Very powerful explosions" were reported by residents in Saky, which is home to a Russian airfield. The Crimean Wind channel on Telegram reported that an ammunition depot at the airfield was struck and quoted a source as saying...

    There are now ten confirmed human cases of avian flu in Colorado, making it the largest outbreak of the virus in U.S. history, according to state health officials. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) is reporting three new confirmed bird flu cases at a second farm in Weld County. This latest update brings Colorado's total number of confirmed avian flu cases in humans to ten, with six cases coming from another poultry farm and one case found in a dairy farm worker, also in Colorado. Yesterday, CDPHE launched a data table to track cases of human bird...

    Romania said it found Russian drone fragments on its territory on Thursday and NATO said it saw no sign of an intentional attack on the alliance's territory after Moscow troops fired 38 long-range drones into Ukraine overnight. Ukraine's Air Force destroyed 25 Russian drones, its chief said on Telegram. Three drones "were lost after crossing the state border with Romania", he added. Romania's defence ministry said it had found fragments of a Russian Geran 1/2 drone near the village of Plauru across the Danube River from Ukraine's southern port town of Izmail that came under attack the second night in...

    Vice President Kamala Harris may have made it more difficult to close a hostage deal, a startled senior Israeli official said after hearing the remarks she issued to the press late Thursday afternoon. “We hope that it won’t make it harder to achieve a hostage deal because it gives the appearance of day light between Israel and the United States,” the official said. Harris surprised Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and those close to him by issuing her statement, which she also placed on X shortly after her hour-long meeting with him.

  • ATLANTA: The Great Battle of Friday; Official Statements of Sherman (7/26/1864)

    WASHINGTON, Monday, July 25. The Republican, extra, says: Dispatches to the Government represent that a great battle was fought in Atlanta on Friday, resulting in a horrible slaughter and a complete repulse of the enemy at every point. The rebels, holding the largest part of the city, assaulted our works on that day with great fury, evidently expecting to drive our forces out of the city. The Fifteenth Corps, commanded by Gen. FRANK BLAIR, seemed to be the special object of rebel wrath, as they massed against it in overwhelming force. The Fifteenth received the shock gallantly, and held its...

    France’s high-speed train system was targeted in a series of attacks Friday, wreaking havoc on the opening day of the 2024 Olympic Games. A series of “coordinated acts of malice” in France led to the cancellation and diversion of a large number of trains, while all travelers were asked to postpone their journeys and not go to train stations on the opening day of the Olympics, according to French rail company SNCF and CNN. Damage was reported at several SNCF facilities as well as the Atlantic, Northern, and Eastern high-speed lines. At least one of the attacks was mitigated by...

    Hollywood's video game performers announced they would go on strike Thursday, throwing part of the entertainment industry into another work stoppage after talks for a new contract with major game studios broke down over artificial intelligence protections. The strike — the second for video game voice actors and motion capture performers under the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists — will begin at 12:01 a.m. Friday. The move comes after nearly two years of negotiations with gaming giants, including divisions of Activision, Warner Bros. and Walt Disney Co., over a new interactive media agreement. SAG-AFTRA negotiators say...

    The armed forces staffer targeted in a daylight stabbing near a barracks in Kent is a lauded and long-serving colonel in the British Army. The soldier stabbed multiple times near Brompton Barracks in Gillingham has been named as Lieutenant Colonel Mark Teeton, in his 40s, who was reportedly in uniform when he was attacked on Tuesday. The longtime course manager at the Royal School of Military Engineering received up to 12 stab wounds during the shock incident. Lt Col Teeton joined the British Army in 2000, and was awarded a long service and good conduct medal after more than a...

    A left-wing nonprofit that interfered in the 2020 election to Democrats’ benefit is coaching election offices on how to address concerns about leftist oligarchs’ silent coup to replace Joe Biden as the party’s presidential nominee. On Tuesday, the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL) sent an email to its newsletter subscribers highlighting Biden’s Sunday exit from the 2024 race and informing election officials that “voters and media outlets will be looking to you for guidance in the coming weeks, and you will play a powerful role in shaping this emerging story.”

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — Despite rampant skepticism among the voting public as November approached, the party cheating in the primary election solemnly promised that it would definitely not be cheating in the general election. A group of the nation's most prominent Democrats held a press conference to allay the fears of American citizens that the fact that they had just successfully undermined the democratic process to replace Joe Biden with Kamala Harris on the presidential ticket might be an indication that they would pull similar unethical shenanigans in November's general election against Donald Trump. "Don't be ridiculous," said Nancy Pelosi when...

    It is unlikely that Harris knows much about the plot, but she knows enough to keep her mouth shut. It’s time for someone in the media to ask her what, in fact, she does know. This past week, pundits have been quick to label the July 13 attempt on Donald Trump’s life an “inside job.” A little too quick. The pundits may be right, but they do not yet have enough evidence to make that claim. I was deep into the research for my new book, Ashli: The Untold Story of the Women of January 6, before I felt comfortable...

    VP Kamala Harris on Thursday said she urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to reach a cease-fire deal soon with Hamas so that dozens of hostages held by the militants in Gaza since Oct. 7 can return home. Harris said she had a “frank and constructive” conversation with Netanyahu in which she affirmed Israel’s right to defend itself but also expressed deep concern about the high death toll in Gaza over nine months of war and the “dire” humanitarian situation there. With all eyes on the likely Democratic presidential nominee, Harris largely reiterated President Joe Biden's longstanding message that it's...

    There are two choices of coins for sale to the public. Each feature one of the two 2024 presidential candidates. On the reverse side of the coins is that candidate's opponent shown IN PRISON. So there are pro Trump and pro Biden coins you can choose from. I've got a feeling the Biden coins are now actually worth about a tenth of the current sale price. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! https://945maxcountry.com/presidential-prison-coin/

    One of the most under-discussed drivers of illegal immigration is the explosion of remittances, which has created a major economic incentive for foreign nationals to pour into the U.S.Immigrants of both the legal and illegal variety are coming to the U.S., earning money, and sending it back home instead of putting it into the U.S. economy. Take for example, Nicaragua, which received a record $462.4 million in remittances during the month of May, with $385.9 million coming from the U.S., according to a report cited by Breitbart News. As Breitbart points out, not only is this money not going into...

    Leftist women are getting their knickers in a twist about how JD Vance, in 2021, described Kamala Harris and other childless leftist women. The fact is that Vance’s colorful language accurately describes a real and troubling phenomenon amongst a certain segment of childless women (not I hasten to add, all childless women) in America.Soon after Vance announced his candidacy for the Ohio Senate stated during a speech that “the childless left” isn’t committed to America’s future because, without offspring, leftists have no direct stake in the future. In response to Tucker Carlson’s inquiries, Vance expanded on what he meant by...
