The Republican National Committee’s director of security said that the explanation of the purported January 6 pipe bomb plot, and the response by authorities, “make no sense whatsoever.” Kenneth Capolino, a former Capitol Police officer who went on to work as the RNC’s director of security, was the man who personally alerted Capitol Police to the bomb near the RNC and managed the emergency response. Capolino told The Daily Wire, in his first public remarks on the incident, that it looked like a stereotypical IED, or improvised explosive device, that is used by law enforcement in training sessions. “Any of...

A 12-year-old child has been charged with reckless endangerment after throwing a bottle of alcohol from the 32nd floor of a New York City hotel skyscraper. A woman was hurt as the bottle hurtled to the ground, hitting her on the head before smashing into pieces by the Intercontinental Times Square. The incident initially caused panic and saw West 44th Street between Eighth and Ninth Avenue shut down for a brief time just before 5pm on Friday evening, after those on the street below believed the noise to have been the sound of gunshots. The culprits also included an 11-year-old...

(NEXSTAR) – You can get it by the glass, the can, the growler or the keg. But for some reason, you can’t guzzle it from a plastic two-liter. Beer — at least in the United States — is rarely sold in plastic bottles. The most common mediums are glass bottles and aluminum cans, with the exception of the occasional “drinkable ornament” around the holidays. (We’re looking at you, Miller Lite.) Plastic bottles, meanwhile, are rarely ever seen in the beer aisle, despite being widely embraced by the juice and soft-drink industries. Why is that? Well, as it turns out, beer...

A protest at Pershing Square in downtown L.A. Tuesday left an officer injured as protesters clashed with police.

The Iraqi Survey Group also found that supposed "humanitarian" imports under Oil-for-Food gave Saddam the ability to restart his biological and chemical warfare programs at a moment's notice. Spertzel said what scared him the most in Iraq was the discovery of secret labs to make deadly weapons like the nerve agent, sarin, and the biological poison, ricin, in spray form. "If that were released in a closed [area], such as Madison Square Garden or, even some, some of your smaller closed malls, shopping malls, it would have a devastating effect … killing hundreds or thousands," Spertzel said. But Spertzel believes...

You’ve been told to drink more water more times than you can count. Heck, more than half of Americans drink bottled water and one-third of us suck it down on a regular basis, as the Chicago Tribune noted. Chugging water has become the staple of the trying-to-be-healthy lifestyle. But you might want to rethink the plastic bottle you’ve been lugging around wherever you go. As the BBC reports, an alarming new study has shown that many bottles of water, which the $4 billion industry has marketed to us as clean and pure, may actually be chock full of microplastics. So...

Four years ago, the writing was on the wall for beer bottles. Everyone from NPR to Business Insider was covering the environmental benefits and convenience of beer in cans. And that, as opposed to glass bottles, aluminum prevents any light whatsoever from getting through and damaging delicious libations. Local breweries like Discretion and Santa Cruz Mountain Brewing have since begun canning some varietals, and Uncommon Brewers—which has only ever done cans—appears more popular than ever. Canned wine has even started taking off. And yet when you go to the grocery store shopping for Deschutes Black Butte Porter or Lagunitas’ Censored...

Beachgoers in South America can have a cold Coke and a smile, but unlike other consumers of the world's most popular soft drink, they can drink it directly from a bottle made entirely of ice. The Atlanta-based company says the “cold to the last drop” bottles "continue to make quite a splash in Colombia and throughout the advertising world." Indeed, the cool marketing ploy, began this year, has won Coca-Cola several awards. How does it work?
