@ky_statesman I've lived in KY-04 my entire life and closely follow the election results here. There is no way that the turnout legitimately doubled. This was election fraud carried out by the highest levels of our state & federal governments.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth led the swearing-in ceremony at the PentagonFox News host Johnny "Joey" Jones reenlisted in the United States Marine Corps on Wednesday during a swearing-in ceremony at the Pentagon."The last job I had in uniform — my job was to get better. It was to heal. It's a very selfish thing. My job was to heal. The Marine Corps paid me to get better, and then I retired. And there's nothing wrong with that, but it was unfinished business," Jones said at the ceremony.Jones, a formerly-retired staff sergeant, served eight years in the Marine Corps and...

How Meta announced its latest round of 1000s of layoffs.

Who is Palmer Luckey? Palmer Luckey is an American entrepreneur and inventor best known as the founder of Oculus VR and the designer of the Oculus Rift, the virtual reality headset that revitalized the modern VR industry. Born in 1992 in Long Beach, California, he began building VR prototypes as a teenager and launched Oculus in 2012, which was subsequently acquired by Facebook (now Meta) in 2014 for $2 billion. After leaving Meta in 2017, Luckey founded Anduril Industries, a defense technology company focused on developing autonomous drones, sensors, and AI-powered systems for military applications. As of early 2026, his...

The Wall Street Journal last week ran a column headlined, “The Congressional Pension Racket.” That got me thinking about how Congressional pensions aren’t such a big grift around here, because none of our Congressional hacks ever retire. Why should they? The entire six-state region is 100 percent gerrymandered – 21 seats, 21 Democrats, even though about 40 percent of the New England electorate voted for Donald Trump in 2024. That’s why the Democrats are so mad about the gerrymandering this year. They’ve already gerrymandered everywhere they could, in spades. Their gerrymandering is a mature industry. The Republicans had a lot...

This is one of those rare two-birds-one-stone situations. Crazy scene on our Florida 287(g) Highway Patrol / ICE operation. As we’re picking up one illegal another illegal crashes right next to us. The truth is most Americans can’t comprehend how many illegals are in our country. Thank God, ICE and America First states like Florida are fighting to fix it! There's a 90% chance this hombre was looking over trying to see if it was one of his amigos being pulled in by ICE. There is no information on exactly where they were performing this operation, but this website can...

On June 14, Switzerland will vote on a referendum to cap its population at 10 million. Current projections don't put the Swiss population crossing that number until 2035 or 2040. The Swiss very, very, very jealously guard the right to have citizenship, and are notoriously strict about it. So if you are from elsewhere and you want to become Swiss, it's a very long, long, long process.

Billionaire Mark Cuban stood on the White House stage Monday alongside the man he spent the last year trying to keep out of the Oval Office. The former "Shark Tank" star and outspoken Kamala Harris surrogate appeared beside President Donald Trump during the rollout of TrumpRx.gov, which is a new initiative aimed at lowering the cost of 600 generic prescription drugs. The program partners the Trump administration with major private-sector companies, including Amazon, GoodRx and Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs — officially making Trump and Cuban business partners after a history of heated political attacks. For much of the campaign...

Just before writing this piece, I saw Gary Oldman in a London production of Samuel Beckett’s Krapp’s Last Tape. For those unfamiliar, the play revolves around an old man listening to a series of tapes recorded by himself when he was younger, musing pompously on his hopes and dreams for the future. In his present, desiccated state, he can only scoff at his middle-aged self, before being overcome by the pathetic realization that it is all up for him and that he is doomed to a miserable, unhappy future. It is hard to think of ten people who will want...

Police are investigating after a 75-year elderly woman died following a fight at a Tim Hortons in Indiana. According to the Fort Wayne Police Department, the confrontation between Anita Grayson and a 17-year-old employee and a 20-year-old shift leader began just after 8 a.m. on May 13 after Grayson entered the fast-food restaurant to address an issue with an order she had received through the drive-thru. Police say Grayson was berating the younger worker before the shift lead stepped in and asked Grayson to leave the store. Grayson is then alleged to have shoved the shift lead and struck her...

Former first lady Michelle Obama was raising two young girls while living in the White House. And while she had her fair share of “traumatizing” moments during her husband’s presidency, one overseas trip really pushed her to her limit.(snip) Michelle recalled the “messy conversations” she had with White House staffers after the “impossible” travel schedules became too much for her young daughters, Malia Obama and Sasha Obama — now 27 and 24, respectively — to handle. The Obamas moved into the White House in 2009 with two young daughters — Malia, then 10, and Sasha, then 7. Michelle quickly realized...

What if every U.S. state were a person you could meet on the street, in a diner, out in the wilderness, or behind a smoky grill? This coast-to-coast collection imagines exactly that—one woman for every state, each captured in a moment that reflects her home’s spirit, culture, quirks, and contradictions.

"Our company has fully adopted AI. All of our computers have AI. We use AI in all of our meetings. And, it's got an AI assistant. Heck, we even got an AI note taker. We really love using AI during lunch." "How's your business doing?" "Terrible. But we are early adopters...so, we'll be fine." "All of our computers have AI"

After Trump's Thursday announcement praising her border security work, including what Noem called the 'most secure border in American history' and $13 billion in taxpayer savings, online conservatives urged her to primary Thune in South Dakota's 2028 race. Critics label Thune disloyal with a 51% Liberty Score and past bipartisan moves, while figures like radio host Jeff Kuhner predict Noem would crush him thanks to her MAGA ties and home-state popularity. Noem has stayed silent on any Senate bid, and with Thune's $20 million war chest and strong approvals, the talk remains early speculation amid GOP tensions. This story is...

A Florida woman’s DUI arrest is going viral online after deputies said they found her sitting beside a crashed Hyundai near Streamsong Golf Resort surrounded by dozens of miniature alcohol bottles. According to the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a single-vehicle crash on May 14 near the resort outside Bowling Green, Florida. When a deputy arrived, they found a red 2018 Hyundai sitting on a sidewalk with 34-year-old Erika Mayer of Palmetto seated nearby. The situation became even stranger after a witness told deputies they had watched the Hyundai being driven across portions of the golf course before...
