A dad walked into a Minnesota police station "covered in blood" and told police he beat a man with a shovel 15 to 20 times and "finished him off" with a moose antler, according to court documents. The suspect, Levi Axtell, 27, was taken into custody and arraigned Friday on a second-degree murder charge in the death of 77-year-old Lawrence V. Scully, who was convicted of molesting a 6-year-old girl in 1979. Axtell was suspicious of Scully and believed he was stalking his toddler daughter at her day care, according to a probable cause affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital.

A soon-to-be father-of-three is being slammed as 'ugly' and an 'a**hole' for his 'alarming' reaction to learning that his third child will be a girl. Expectant mother @kc.fulton and her husband already have a three-year-old daughter and a one-year-old daughter — and they are now expecting daughter number three, which they learned at a gender reveal about a week ago. But while the US-based mom and her toddlers were expressed joy as pink confetti rained down around them, dad was clearly quite unhappy not to get a son and expressed that by repeatedly yelling profanities and storming off. In the...

NDAA FY 2022 Requirement for Women to Register for Selective Service REMOVED Yesterday, December 7, 2021. This is very good news! This came from a friend in the Texas 31st Congressional District, not from our own Congressman. But I have been on the phone with Trey Hollingsworth's (R-IN-9) Jeffersonville office. Rep Hollingsworth's office has confirmed that the U.S. Senate sent a compromise bill back to the House insiting on these changes. The vote in the House took place yesrerday, December 7, 2021, and we were successful in the points shown here in Congressman John Carter's letter. This is confirmed. And...

During an interview that aired Monday on CBS’s “This Morning,” former first lady Michelle Obama voiced her concern for her daughters as they grow up and enter the world. Host Gayle King noted that Malia Obama, 22, is graduating college. Obama said she is “excited” to see Malia enter the next chapter of life, but she said she worries her daughter will be treated differently because of the color of her skin.

Former first lady Michelle Obama said on Friday’s broadcast of “CBS This Morning” that she worried as the mother of two Black daughters, Malia, 22, and Sasha, 19, “every time they get in a car by themselves.” When former Minneapolis Police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of the murder of George Floyd, former President Barack and Michelle Obama said in a joint statement, “true justice is about much more than a single verdict in a single trial.”

The nation's top infectious-disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, won't be spending Thanksgiving with his daughters this year, despite his and his wife's desires. "I have three daughters in three disparate parts of the country ... who we don't see very often," Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said during a webinar hosted by American University's Kennedy Political Union Tuesday. "We would love for them to come home for Thanksgiving." But the daughters, ages 28 to 34, didn't want to take the risk traveling would pose to their parents' health.

White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Wednesday that he and his family have required continued security in the face of harassment and death threats from people angry over his guidance on the coronavirus pandemic. “The unseemingly things that crises bring out in the world, it brings out the best of people and the worst of people, and getting death threats to my family and harassing my daughters to the point where I have to get security — it’s amazing,” Fauci said in an interview with CNN’s Dr. Sanjay Gupta on Harvard’s School of Public Health website that was...

Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly says six state leaders are ousting her from the Eagle Forum organization she founded because of her support of Donald Trump, and five of them support Sen. Ted Cruz. Schlafly released a statement Monday claiming the group is trying to take over the organization by controlling bank accounts, firing employees and hiring their own. “I think it’s an attempt to vote me out,” Schlafly told the conservative World Net Daily. “It’s disloyal, and it’s terribly shocking, and I’m completely depressed about it.” Among those Schlafly called out by name Monday was Cathie Adams, who served as...

Children of celebrities are often lucky enough to inherit their famous parents' good looks, but sometimes they're nearly a genetic copy! Click through to check out some pics of famous ladies and their daughter doppelgangers,

This Wednesday, the Bank of Canada has a decision to make.Canada's oil "dream" is dying thanks to the inexorable slide in crude prices and as the IEA made clear earlier today, the pain is set to persist for the foreseeable future as the world "drowns in oversupply.""Lower for longer" has hit the country's oil patch hard. We've spent quite a bit of time documenting the plight of Alberta, where job cuts tied to crude's slide have led directly to rising suicide rates, soaring property crime, and increased food bank usage (not to mention booming business for repo men).Adding insult...

Fathers and Daughters – Is This a Missing Key to Modesty Today? By: Msgr. Charles PopeWe often speak today of the terrible toll that fatherless homes have on young boys. And this is true. Without a reasonably good (even though not sinless) model of manhood and responsibility, many boys lose their way. Fathers also play a large role in disciplining boys, especially as they grow older and become  stronger than their mothers.But missing fathers also bring forth terrible effects on many girls. Women, even young girls, certainly do seek and desire the love and appreciation of men and have...

I can only imagine what this is going to cost us HEY! Great news! It’s VACATION TIME!!! Actually, most of us can’t take a vacation because we all need to WORK! But this is not the case for our ROYAL FAMILY! Yes, Michelle Obama is planning a nice little vacation for her and the 2 girls they claim are their ‘daughters…’ Will it be a spot on the beach for $65 a night? I mean, camping at the beach, having an awesome campfire, barbecuing up some burgers and dogs, slamming down a few brews- it doesn’t get much better than...

I didn't see any FReeper Valentine's day stories, which usually means hanging out with your significant other (ie. Honey).Anyone here hang out with their lovely daughters today?

While your kids at school get the slop that Michelle Obama dictates that they do, her kids get something, um, different. At their exclusive private school, the Obama daughters get food far better than you’d get at home, or in most restaurants. Michelle Obama has made childhood obesity her pet issue, much like Nancy Reagan did with drugs or Laura Bush did with literacy. Fair enough. However, the first lady’s nutritional strictures have left school lunches a little, um, not lunch-like. It may lead you to wonder what Michelle’s kids are getting. Well, wonder no further! We have what Sasha...

As Americans have the constitutional right to speak out against the government and our politicians without fear of government retribution or arrest. That is until Barack Obama ascended to the throne of supreme emperor of the United States. It seems that over the past six years we have lost the right to criticize or even speak the truth about any member of the Obama family without fear of retribution. Just ask Elizabeth Lauten, the communication director for Rep. Stephen Fincher (R-TN). Lauten exercised her First Amendment rights when she opted to chastise Sasha and Malia Obama’s choice of wardrobe that...

Excuse me for my 2nd vanity in as many days but I always appreciate FReeper advice.My adult daughter, who lives by herself in Seattle finally confided to me that the pepper spray she carries doesn't make her feel safe anymore and wants a handgun.Her only input was that she would like a purple gun. Hey, she's a girl :-)

Dr. Michael Niccole takes pride in his profession and the spoils of his work can be seen in his children. The Orange County plastic surgeon has operated on his adopted 25-year-old daughters multiple times over the years, according to a video by Barcroft Media. Daughter Brittani says in the video her first surgery was breast augmentation after she finished high school at 18. Then she got a nose job right before her 21st birthday and started Botox injections at the age of 22. Meanwhile, her sister Charm got her navel changed from an outie to an innie when she was...

Living and working the African American Catholic Community I have been subject to some time with names that are often unpronounceable. It is a controversial practice even in the Black community for parents to name their children all sorts of crazy, made-up names that are often intentionally misspelled.DeQuanna, Sharkeisha, LaDarrius, Shamyra, Marketta, Shontella, LaRochelle, Shandrika, Charmonique, Myosha, LaKeisha, DeQuan, Rhondella, Raviona, Rominthia, Tomika, LaVenia, Trishela, LaTasha, ABCDE, Tyeisha, Mootron, Knoshon, Keyshawn, Tarquisha, Q’J'Q’Sha, Laquintas, Jamarcus, JoNathans, et al.I trip over this especially at Baptisms when I am supposed to solemnly pronounce the name of the child. Even after the irritated...
