Of course, America first leader and Republican Presidential candidate Donald J. Trump has been very critical of this situation, and as election day approaches, he has been stepping up his criticism of Zelensky. This week, while presenting his ‘victory plan’ to his...

Over the last month, Horgan and other surgeons at the University of California, San Diego have performed more than 20 minimally invasive operations while wearing Apple’s mixed-reality headsets. Apple released the headsets to the public in February, and they’ve largely been a commercial flop.

Horgan says that wearing headsets during surgeries has improved his effectiveness while lowering his risk of injury—and could have an enormous impact on hospitals across the country, especially those without the means to afford specialty equipment. “This is...

With under three weeks left in the 2024 Presidential election, things are looking good for Donald Trump. Poll numbers are trending his way, and there are clear signs Democrats are getting scared and desperate.

The usual suspects, Alec Baldwin, Robert DeNiro, etc., will announce they are leaving the country, and there will be group therapy screams like we saw in 2016. But could it get even worse? One person...
