First, two Van Amersfoort Racing cars, driven by Enzo Deligny and Bruno del Pino, came together at Turn 7. Meanwhile, in the background, Maciej Gladysz's ART Grand Prix car also went airborne, as he could not...

It brought in Kazan and Stuart to write the adaptation and took the package out in late April. By early May, in a very competitive situation, Lonesome Dove had laded...

They’re declaring war on Ozempic! In a completely jaw-dropping moment at the recent Democratic Socialists of America-backed Socialism 2026 conference in Chicago, an unhinged radical made the outlandish claim that GLP-1 drugs are “fascist” because they “genocide fat people.” “The political deployment of GLP-1s is fascistic, not because individuals take them, but because the conditions under which they become necessary are shaped by a world fixated on genociding fat people,” proclaimed Atlanta activist Da’Shaun L. Harrison. The extremist claimed the drugs, like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro — which were developed to treat diabetes are credited with lowering the risk of...

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin claimed on Thursday that Somali-born Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) "married her brother" as part of an alleged immigration fraud scheme, adding that she could now face deportation. Mullin made the remarks while speaking with conservative podcaster Benny Johnson at the GOP midterm convention in Dallas. During the conversation, he discussed the federal investigation into the "Squad" congresswoman, describing the probe as ongoing. "We know that she married her brother to try to bring him into the United States," Mullin said of the Minnesota Democrat. "We know he lives now in London." He was referring to...

Fishing and boating on a Staten Island lake that was polluted by human waste has finally been closed by authorities, one week after The Post reported that officials had done nothing about the “open secret” for decades. The Parks Department told The Post in a statement Friday evening that “out of an abundance of caution, fishing and boating will be suspended in Clove Lakes Park while we await water testing results.” The Post spoke to boat rental workers earlier in the day who said that boat rentals had been open all week. The workers informed The Post that parkgoers continued...

Andrew James Wimsatt, 62, of Austin, was slain Sept. 7 — just moments after sitting down in the park following a visit with his mother at her Round Rock nursing home, according to Fox News.

Police in Jackson, Mississippi, have arrested a man in the case of Tasia Fortune, the 29-year-old Black woman found hanging from a tree outside an abandoned house last month, following the state medical examiner ruling her death a homicide. Jarques Ratliff, 51, has been charged with murder in connection with Fortune’s death, police said Friday. CNN is working to determine if he has legal representation. Ratliff will have his first court appearance Monday, police said. “Last night, the medical examiner’s office officially classified Miss Fortune’s death as a homicide. With that determination, our investigators moved quickly,” Chief RaShall Brackney said...

A message from James Woods THE FALLING MAN We have all seen the image, a man falling through space, plunging to earth from a top floor of the World Trade Center. It was 25 years ago today, and it still makes me gasp in horror and seethe with rage as if it had happened yesterday. What was so compelling about this photograph of a man, completely upside down, almost as if by choice, falling to a certain death? Well, because it WAS a choice. We knew he had leapt from an inferno like hell itself, the result of an act...

Drugs for treating depression are among the most prescribed category of medications in the U.S. – 1 in 6 American adults take them. Some health researchers and advocates have raised concerns that too many patients are using antidepressants and that patients who want to stop taking them struggle to do so. One of the most prominent voices on this point is Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who launched an effort in May 2026 encouraging doctors to find other ways besides antidepressants and other psychiatric drugs to treat depression when possible. As a psychiatrist for over 35...

The holdout juror who caused Lindsay Clancy’s mistrial has a history of alleged domestic violence such as grabbing his wife by the throat and punching his nephew, according to a report.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris accused Republicans of “cheating” during an interview Thursday and said she was working to “stop the madness” by helping Democrats win the midterm elections. “Midterms, midterms, midterms, full-time occupying my thoughts, my mind and my work,” Harris said. “We have to win these midterms. These — these folks are cheating. They’re redrawing lines. They’re trying to make it more difficult for people to vote so they won’t vote because they are afraid of the power of the people. “And, so, I’m spending full-time working on doing everything I can to help people restore some balance...

Anthropic says it has blocked multiple accounts that used the company’s artificial intelligence models in ways that could support the development of biological weapons. In a report published Thursday, the AI company known for its Claude model said it considers biological misuse one of the “most serious risks” to artificial intelligence models. The new report outlines five real-life case studies in which users “circumvented controls” that block users from specific regions and “engaged in other efforts to obfuscate the purpose of their research to evade our safeguards.” The examples include possible gain-of-function research and involve both infectious diseases, such as...

Finding deepens U.S.-China tensions ahead of the Trump-Xi summit as officials examine possible Chinese help tracking American warships Before Iran carried out its attack that killed three U.S. troops in July, Tehran acquired high-resolution satellite images of the base in Jordan from Chinese entities, according to U.S. officials familiar with details of the incident. It is the clearest evidence so far that Chinese support for Iran during the war has had lethal consequences for U.S. forces, according to the officials, who say the U.S. has connected the imagery to the attack. The U.S. officials declined to identify the Chinese entities...

Thanks to warm coastal waters and the developing El Niño, Southern California is seeing an influx of sea creatures not commonly found in the region. Last month, a hammerhead shark was captured on video near the Malibu Pier; they’re typically found in warm, tropical and subtropical coastal waters. Then, on Wednesday, a pilot working with Southern California’s commercial fishing industry recorded footage of a lone whale shark between Malibu and Santa Barbara Island. CREDIT: Carl Sbarounis/IG: airpilikiaWhale sharks are the largest fish in the world and, like hammerheads, are commonly found in warm, tropical waters – not California. Sbarounis estimated...

At 10:45 a.m. on September 11, 2001, a Coast Guard lieutenant named Mike Day keyed a radio in New York Harbor and said the only sentence that mattered. “All available boats. This is the United States Coast Guard. Anyone wanting to help with the evacuation of Lower Manhattan, report to Governors Island.” The boats were already coming. The bridges were closed. The tunnels were closed. The subways were dead. South of the towers, hundreds of thousands of people had nowhere left to walk. Some jumped into the Hudson. Some stood on seawalls that were never meant to be docks and...
