Teen killer Karmelo Anthony is seeking a new trial and wants a different judge to oversee any future legal proceedings in his conviction for the murder of Austin Metcalf, his defense team has revealed. Just last month, a jury in Collin County, in the suburbs of Dallas, took less than three hours to convict the 19-year-old of murder over the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a high school track meet in April 2025. The same jury sentenced Anthony to 35 years in prison, rejecting his claim that Anthony acted in self-defense.

These people should apply to the circus. VIDEOS AT LINK.................... My favorite part is the officer numbering them off like Count von Count from Sesame Street. 😂 This video was apparently taken in the last week. Fourteen men, six women, and four kids were inside the car. The Dominican Republic, which shares its island with Haiti, has a massive border wall with strict security. It has also ramped up deportations of Haitians that do live within its borders. What a bunch of extremists!

In the fevered corners of the internet where men — primarily white — gather to "optimise" every little detail of their bodies, there is a belief that even the brain can be beaten into shape to make men seem more attractive. Here, cortisol affects "facial fat redistribution", dopamine affects "eye contact quality", serotonin affects "resting expression", and acetylcholine affects “intelligence in social contexts".

As Microsoft continues hacking away at Xbox’s game studios as part of thousands of layoffs, the teams that are still under the company’s umbrella are finding out what’s next. Obsidian, the developer behind Avowed and The Outer Worlds, is, according to a new report from Bloomberg, canceling a planned Avowed sequel and pivoting to a new Fallout game.

According to Bloomberg’s sources, studio design director Josh Sawyer will reportedly be leading the team on a new Fallout game, which will...

Explanation: Sometimes we can all use a little help from a friend. NASA's Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory needs a boost to stay in orbit after almost 22 years of service. This video shows an artist's visualization of the Swift Boost Mission: The Katalyst's LINK spacecraft was launched aboard a Northrop Grumman Pegasus XL rocket on July 3 and it is now en route to rendezvous with Swift and boost it to a higher orbit over the course of the next several months. This type of maneuver has never been attempted before. If successful, it will be the technology demonstration of...

PENSACOLA, Fla. — A federal judge in Florida on Tuesday ordered the Department of Homeland Security to restore key features of its Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements system, including SSN-search and bulk-upload capabilities that states use to verify citizenship and immigration status for voter rolls. U.S. District Judge T. Kent Wetherell II ruled that DHS breached a court-approved settlement agreement with Florida and other states by disabling the features following a conflicting decision from a judge in Washington, D.C. Wetherell expressly disagreed with that ruling, concluding the features do not violate federal law. In June, U.S. District Judge Sparkle L....

Disgraced Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner could end his campaign Wednesday, sources told CNN. Citing a source “close to the campaign,” CNN reported the scandal-scarred Platner was set to meet with advisor Morris Katz Wednesday. He would announce any exit from the race via a video — but the message had not been taped as of Wednesday morning, CNN reported. “This could – and should – end today. We’ll see if it does,” the campaign source told CNN. The report comes as a top Maine Democrat claimed Platner and his team were “trying to put their thumb on the scale”...

An American left-wing activist moved from New York City to Killarney, Ireland, five years ago, and now she’s dead. The woman’s name was Jamey Carney. She was a single mother of a thirteen-year-old and fit the typical stereotype of a white liberal woman from Manhattan. She hated ICE, loved Palestine, and moved to Europe, where she began a relationship with a migrant man. Jamey was found dead in her bed, hidden under a duvet by her teenage child. The migrant man she was involved with is nowhere to be found. Police officials are looking for him, and reports online suggest...

[Translated from Dutch] We fell off our seats when we received the following video. It turns out to be a video of Kunstencentrum KAAP from Bruges and Ostend. That arts center ‘deserves’ 68% of its turnover by simply reaching out its hand to the Flemish Government, which then invests 2 million euros every year. With that 2 million euros, KAAP organizes, really, you hold on, “decolonizing” dance projects. You will see an example of such a ‘decolonizing’ dance in annex. Have we become collectively mad or what? No, but really, seriously, the Flemish Government is losing! There is money short,...

The Case for America takes on one of the most contested legal battles in modern American history - the true story of January 6th. Host Treniss Evans is joined by attorney Roger Roots and retired Army Lieutenant Colonel Ivan Raiklin to dismantle what they call a five-year government narrative built on the word "insurrection." Roots argues the DOJ systematically overcharged and over-sentenced J6 defendants with felony charges unprecedented in American history, while filing a sweeping 90-plus-page civil complaint on behalf of hundreds of Jers. Raiklin says the statute of limitations on that testimony expires in just three weeks, and he's...

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Former Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan was spared from prison Wednesday for ushering a Mexican defendant out of her courtroom to evade U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. A federal judge fined her $5,000 and cited her otherwise law-abiding life in issuing the sentence. “I think this is a situation where an otherwise good person, upset by immigration policies in this country, made a bad decision in the moment,” U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman said. Dugan, 67, was convicted of felony obstruction in December. Her lawyers argued during her trial that President Donald Trump’s administration sought to “crush”...

Tlaib, Concerned that their Party's shift toward socialism might not appeal to normal Americans, ten members of the US House of Representatives and three candidates aspiring to win seats in the House have signed a "Promise to America Pledge."

The criticism of WNBA officiating has now reached Capitol Hill. Just days after Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark publicly called on the league to do a better job protecting its players, a group of Republican lawmakers is demanding answers from WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert. In a letter led by Rep. August Pfluger, chairman of the Republican Study Committee, and co-signed by a dozen members of Congress — including lawmakers from Indiana — the group argued that the WNBA has failed to adequately protect its biggest star from repeated unnecessary physical play. "Caitlin Clark is transforming women's sports," the letter began....
