LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — Crews imploded the Eastside Cannery Hotel-Casino along Boulder Highway, and spectators gathered across the street to watch the building come down. The Longhorn Casino hosted a demolition party, selling parking spaces for $25 and rooms for $250 to give guests a front-row seat to the implosion. The event drew visitors from out of state as well as longtime Las Vegas locals.

@mtgreenee I’m done. Absolutely done. The war is bad enough but giving into Democrats on transing children is enough to lose me forever. If the GOP supports transing minors with sick mentally ill parent’s consent, I’m registering as an independent. My only policies are Jesus.

A Somali fraudster in Minnesota has been sentenced to five years in federal prison for his role in a conspiracy to bribe a black female juror during a Somali fraud trial. They tried to bribe the juror with $120k cash in a bag, with instructions to make other jurors think the prosecution is racist.

"I gave my attention to the Lord God to seek Him by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes" (Dan. 9:3). The more you understand God’s holiness, the more you’ll recognize your own sinfulness. People view prayer differently. For some it is a last resort after all human options have been exhausted: "All I can do now is pray for you!" Others liken it to a spiritual spare tire—something used only in the event of an emergency. Many who should thrive on prayer have been lulled into complacency by an affluent and godless society. Daniel, however, saw prayer as...

Masih Alinejad: Do you believe that the Western feminists who actually went to my country wore hijab? They bow to the Taliban? Bill Maher: They didn't take to the street yet. Masih Alinejad: Why are liberals so moronic about the problem? Masih Alinejad: Really, this just breaks my heart because for years and years we have been warning them about the dangers of morality police. You know why? Because most of them speak perfect English, and the people who actually talk about Islam and Islamic countries—they never go and live under Sharia laws. But they don't even let us talk...

San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie’s police security team was attacked Thursday evening near the edge of the Tenderloin — leaving an officer bleeding from the back of his head after a chaotic street confrontation. The mayor was not hurt in the incident, which unfolded just before 6 p.m. near Cedar Street, according to Mission Local. One San Francisco Police Department officer assigned to Lurie’s security detail was left panting and bleeding after he slammed his head during a struggle with a suspect. The mayor had been riding in a black SUV with the officer and a driver — also a...

California Democrats need to address the affordability crisis to help struggling residents, but their plan to accomplish this goal seems rather tone-deaf. To raise money for the upcoming midterm elections, the California Democratic Party and Senate Pro Tem Monique Limón are hosting a two-day golf and spa retreat for lobbyists and special interests at an elite luxury resort — and the staggering price tag climbs as high as $100,000, according to an invitation obtained by The Post. The whopping cost and weird optics of the “Pro Tem Cup 2026,” which will take place March 20 to 22 at the Omni...

A father who was ordered to pay compensation to a cyclist for filming him as he knocked over his young daughter has finally won his legal battle. The footage was filmed and posted to social media by five-year-old Neia's dad, Patrick Mpasa, during their family walk in a nature reserve in Baraque Michel, Belgium, on Christmas Day, 2020. The cyclist, who was only identified as Jacques D, was originally taken to court in Verviers for kneeing the little girl, only to be given a suspended sentence because he had been criticised enough on social media. Jacques then sued Mr Mpasa...

My latest song. Safely rest.

Former Notre Dame football coach Lou Holtz, a pro-life champion who led the Fighting Irish to the 1988 national college football championship, has passed away. Holtz was a vocal advocate for the pro-life cause. He spoke at the annual spring banquet of Right to Life of Southwest Indiana in Evansville, an event attended by about 1,700 pro-life activists and described as the largest pro-life banquet in the country. He urged the crowd to “fight, fight, fight” for the lives of unborn babies and emphasized that their mission was noble, telling them they must be the hope of the unborn. “One...

Daily Readings from the USCCBJesus said to the chief priests and the elders of the people: “Hear another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a wine press in it, and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenants and went on a journey. When vintage time drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to obtain his produce. But the tenants seized the servants and one they beat, another they killed, and a third they stoned…” Matthew 21:33–34Jesus addressed this parable to the chief priests and elders of the...

long-time U.S. Supreme Court reporter for the New York Times, Linda Greenhouse, recently wrote a surprisingly candid description of how U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts added “gratuitous” language into his opinion on the recent tariff case, personally criticizing the president on record. Greenhouse conveniently frames the justice’s indulgence, however, as a legitimate “warning” to both the president and “the waiting world.” She states that Roberts “is losing patience with Trump.” Apparently, the chief justice is thought to be entitled to act as a shadow president. Greenhouse admits that Roberts’s personal opinion of the president, made by a judge who is...

Mr. Putin is also grappling with the arrival of a new world of unbridled American power under President Trump, which is checking Russia’s global influence and ripping up Moscow’s playbook for partnerships abroad. For years, Mr. Putin supported anti-American authoritarian governments in Iran, Venezuela and Cuba, with little worry that Washington would use its overwhelming military power to kill, capture or push out their leaders. That has now changed, as Mr. Trump has demonstrated a willingness to disregard international norms and engage in foreign adventurism by fully exploiting Washington’s might. The last two months have brought the U.S.-Israeli killing of...

AwakenedOutlaw⚒️ repostedGood Lawgic@goodlawgicI have been asked why I give Trump latitude on the Iranian military engagement. Here is why: The trust is because Trump got in and got out of Iran last summer without loss of a single American life.The trust is because he killed Solemaini and Baghdadi finishing ISIS without loss of a single American.The trust is because he got Maduro without losing a single American.The trust is because there are over a dozen foreign nations who said "Trump got us out of [x] war." Again, without loss of a single American.The trust is because of the Abraham Accords.The...

Keir Starmer has said the conflict engulfing the Middle East could continue “for some time” as he insisted the best way forward in the longer term was a negotiated settlement with Iran. The prime minister said the UK was doing “everything we can” to de-escalate the situation, a clear contrast to the US president, who is focused on regime change and has said it was “too late” for Tehran to negotiate. He defended his decision to block initial offensive strikes by the US and Israel at the weekend, saying he stood by his judgment and denying it had damaged the...
