ARLINGTON, Texas – Jerry Jones turned 82 on Sunday and as birthdays go, this one might have aged him more quickly than some others. Earlier this week, Jones announced that an IndyCar race would be staged in the streets surrounding AT&T Stadium, an indication that the business of Jones and the Dallas Cowboys remains quite good. The results, though, are another story. For the last nearly three decades of his life, Jones has proclaimed for anyone who would listen that his singular goal was to win another Super Bowl, a prize that has eluded the Cowboys since the 1995 season....

ROME — A group of LGBTQ+ Catholics met with Pope Francis in the Vatican this weekend, during which they urged him to give his approval for “gender-affirming care,” which includes sex change surgery. The nearly 90-minute meeting was brokered by Sister Jeannine Gramick, a U.S. nun who was disciplined by the Vatican in 1999 for problematic “errors and ambiguities” in her pastoral approach to homosexuality. That year, the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) permanently barred Sr. Gramick from any pastoral work involving homosexual persons, together with Father Robert Nugent, with whom she had co-founded New Ways...

Under the Biden administration, an unprecedented flow of 7 million migrants has entered the United States, through licit and illicit channels, including more than 1 million parolees. Several hundred thousand of those have come from Haiti. Those Haitians have entered through a designated route: the parole program for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans (CHNV). The initiative, which the Biden administration enacted in October 2022 and recently declined to renew, allows individuals from those four countries to enter the United States for up to two years; for Cubans and Haitians, it also lets them collect welfare benefits, such as food stamps,...

From Our Own Correspondent. HEADQUARTERS FIFTH CORPS, WELDON RAILROAD, Tuesday, Oct. 11, 1864. "Nothing new is news," said an old attaché of the TIMES to me, the other day, as I was leaving Washington for this army, and as the gentleman is good authority in such matters, and as he seemed anxious that I should keep the readers of the TIMES posted when there was "nothing new," as well as when everything was active and exciting, I have sat down to-day to tell the "news." An officer, pretty well up among the "stars," speaking about army correspondents, said that they...

The shooting comes in the wake of a blood feud declared by Chechnya's leader Ramzan Kadyrov against politicians from Dagestan and Ingushetia. Unidentified gunmen targeted a car carrying Russian counterterrorism officers, killing three. The incident happened on Friday in Magas, the capital city of the Republic of Ingushetia in Russia's North Caucasus.

The gunmen were allegedly aiming to kill Adam Khamkhoyev, the deputy head of Putin's Centre 'E' counterterrorism...

As the latest polls Sunday showed Donald Trump and Kamala Harris neck and neck with just 23 days to go until the presidential election, Democratic spinmeisters are trying to calm the bedwetters, and Barack Obama has been dispatched to scold black men for not being impressed by his protégé. But as uncomfortably close as this election is, one thing is certain: Tim Walz has to be the worst VP pick on record, in stark contrast to JD Vance. If Harris loses, her self-indulgent decision to reject popular Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro in favor of a running mate even dumber than...

Israel has stopped attacking Hezbollah targets in Beirut, Lebanon, at the request of U.S. President Joe Biden, according to media reports. For the past four weeks, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has targeted Hezbollah bunkers and operatives in Beirut, primarily in the southern area of Dahiyeh. The campaign has been highly successful, killing most of the senior leaders of the terrorist organization and throwing it into disarray. But Biden reportedly asked Israel last week to stop attacking targets in Beirut during their phone call — their first since August. The Times of Israel, referring to two separate reports in the...

“If anger lasts too long, it may become hatred. Anger inflames the eye, but hatred blinds it. If love is life, hatred is death. Perhaps you ran into people who were furious with you. What lasting harm could they do to you? In their rage they threaten to. kill the body, but by hating them you have killed the soul. They have killed the body of another in anger; in hating them you have killed your own soul.” Augustine, Commentary on Psalm 54.7

Hezbollah's drone strike near Binyamina on Sunday, which left 67 people wounded, showcases the growing threat posed by drones in modern warfare. The drone used in this attack is believed to be the Mirsad-1, a drone that Hezbollah has deployed for over two decades, originating from Iranian designs. The Mirsad-1, as noted by experts from the Alma Research Center, is based on Iran's Mohajer-2 model, with slight modifications tailored for Hezbollah’s operations. The drone can carry up to 40 kilograms of explosives, has a top speed of 370 kilometers per hour, and boasts an operational range of 120 kilometers. Hezbollah...

It was 2017. The Trump administration had finally taken the war to ISIS after years of neglect by the Obama administration. And Judge Tanya S. Chutkan, the radical leftist granddaughter of a Jamaican Communist, was fighting to protect an ISIS terrorist in Iraq. The Saudi Muslim had been captured by a local Kurdish militia and turned over to American forces in Iraq. He had been caught with a Koran, thousands of dollars, a flash drive with instructions for making IEDs and a spreadsheet titled “Islamic State Spoils and Booty Bureau.” Spoils under ISIS could include property stolen from non-Muslims as...

There have been to significant jumps in the Federal Debt. The first coming after the financial crisis of 2008 and election of Obama/Biden in 2008. The second with the outbreak of Covid in 2020 and the election of Biden/Harris in 2021. The Federal (public) debt was just over $10 million when Obama/Biden were elected and it now stands at a staggering $35.7 trillion. That represents over a tripling of the Federal debt under Obama/Biden/Harris. So when asked what she would do diffeerent than Biden, Harris replied “Nothing comes to mind.” That means MORE spending, MORE debt and MORE unproductive Government...

Even Polymarket is skewed. If you note the buy/sell spread for Trumpster is -7.7 but when you look at Kameltoes the spread is +9.5 in the opposite direction. Totals should equal 100% but totals on buy is 99.2% and sell is 100.9%. I suspect there is bias in everything.

Archaeologists have found evidence of an Assyrian military campaign against Judaea that resulted in the siege of Jerusalem.The campaign was launched in 701 B.C., when Sennacherib was king of Assyria and Hezekiah was king of Judaea. Sennacherib launched the campaign because he considered Hezekiah a vassal king who should obey the Assyrians, but Hezekiah refused and rebelled against him.The Assyrians conquered much of Judaea and laid siege to Jerusalem but, for reasons that are unclear, failed to take the city. The Hebrew Bible claims that the "the angel of the Lord went out and put to death a hundred and...

“Not a single Muslim participated in the Holocaust, nor had any responsibility." In 1993, Abbé Pierre gave an interview, saying that it was Catholic Christians who committed the Holocaust, and who gave Palestine to the Jews because they were ashamed of what they did. A staunch supporter of the Palestinian cause, Abbé Pierre said Christians made the Muslims, who did nothing to the Jews, pay the price of Hitler’s actions. “Not a single Muslim had participated in the Holocaust, nor had any responsibility. And we deceived the Palestinians,’ he said. ‘We lied to them.’”Let’s take those assertions one by one.First,...

It is past time for those who fight to register non-citizens to vote and/or fight to prevent their removal from the voting rolls to justify their actions. Remember when we all had to prove our citizenship to renew our driver's licenses a few years back? This was a result of the federal Real ID Act of 2005. It basically provides that a state must verify that one is a U.S. citizen or is here legally before issuing a license. If a license is issued as compliant with the Real ID Act, there is a star in the upper right corner...

Gangs have taken control of several of our properties in Aurora, Colorado. In an attempt to discredit this fact for political purposes and avoid governmental accountability, some have spread false information about our situation. Let’s set the record straight...🧵 We started managing these buildings when new owners acquired the Colorado properties in 2019. At the time, the properties were in poor condition, and our mission was to renovate them, thereby increasing their value. This was an ambitious project that would significantly benefit the people of Aurora while providing returns to the new owners. We understood this project would take years...

Donald Trump is a serious threat to the lives of Black men. Vice President Harris will deliver for Black men and their families. Vice President Harris is laying out an agenda to give Black men the tools to build wealth and achieve financial freedom, lower costs for themselves and their families, and protect their rights—addressing the issues that Black men across the country have told her are their top concerns. Provide 1 million forgivable loans up to $20,000 to Black entrepreneurs and others who have a good idea but don’t have the resources, connections, or access to capital to get...
