    Ajoint operation by American and Iraqi forces killed 15 members of the Islamic State group in western Iraq, the U.S. military announced. The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) tweeted on Friday that in the early hours of Thursday, Aug. 29, U.S. and Iraqi forces killed 15 ISIS operatives. The operatives were "armed with numerous weapons, grenades, and explosive ‘suicide’ belts," the agency announced. At least seven U.S. service members were injured in the raid — five during one portion of the operation, and two more during a second segment of the operation. A U.S. defense official tells Fox News Digital, "During...

    Sir Keir Starmer has confirmed pensioners’ worst fears. There will be no U-turn on his decision to remove the winter fuel payment. He has said it is a choice he “has to make”, a decision he “didn’t want” to make. But this cannot be true. Be under no illusions, this is a cold, hard political calculation. Sir Keir is trying to dress up his political choices as “difficult decisions”, sheepishly blaming everyone but himself. He is trying to take the 10 million pensioners who will lose their annual payment for fools. Removing the winter fuel payment is something he cannot...

    Federal courts across the country are handing back disparate rulings over federal and state gun laws despite nearly back-to-back Second Amendment cases at the Supreme Court that sought to clarify the scope of the right to bear arms. Although the Supreme Court’s landmark 2022 decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen held that gun regulations must align with the nation’s “history and tradition” of firearms laws and a separate case this summer called Rahimi v. U.S. upheld firearm prohibitions for domestic violence offenders, lower federal courts are still struggling to achieve consistency, as shown by...

    As the Atlantic hurricane season reaches its peak, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) is monitoring a new area of potential development in the central tropical Atlantic. This system could form over the Labor Day weekend or early next week, potentially disrupting travel and weather patterns. While the chance of development is currently low, favorable environmental conditions could lead to gradual organization of the system as it moves westward.

    For over a year, surface temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean hit new highs, but that trend has reversed at record speed over the past few months, and nobody knows why. {skip obligatory global warming bs next few paragraphs...} NOAA data shows Atlantic sea surface temperatures have cooled at a surprising rate since May. Since June began, temperatures have been a degree or two Fahrenheit colder than normal for this time of year. That means El Niño will likely be replaced by its counterpart, La Niña, a weather system that allows cold water to rise to the surface of the Atlantic,...

    US President Joe Biden has put Vice-President Kamala Harris in charge of controlling migration at the southern border following a big influx of new arrivals. Mr Biden said he was giving her a "tough job" but that she was "the most qualified person to do it". The numbers of people arriving have grown since Mr Biden took office. They include hundreds of unaccompanied minors who are being held in immigration detention facilities. Mr Biden's predecessor, Donald Trump, was widely criticised over his government's treatment of young migrants at the US-Mexico border.

    Liberals on social media seethed in reaction to Democratic lawmakers reportedly admitting behind the scenes that former President Trump isn't a "threat to democracy" as their party loudly claims. New York Times columnist Ezra Klein appeared on The Bulwark Podcast Tuesday and revealed what "top Democrats" have told him off the record as they panic over whether they should support or abandon President Biden on their ticket. "People are weighing this set of things. Like, ‘It would be quite unpleasant for me personally to come out against the president as an elected official in the Democratic Party,' and weighing what...
