    BY THE OREGONIAN/OREGONLIVE (Compiled from news accounts, court records, public notices) Last week's arrest of a long-sought accused eco-saboteur pushed the spotlight back on a tight-knit cell of radical environmentalists responsible for a $48 million run of firebombings and other crimes across the West in the 1990s and early 2000s. Six men and five women prosecuted in Oregon received sentences ranging from three years to 13 years. They were arrested starting in 2005 in what the FBI called "Operation Backfire," a task force that tracked down the suspects with the help of an informant deep within the underground group....

    Everyone knows the left can't meme, but watching them attempt to troll the right is just as entertaining in person. Here's the setup: A couple of weeks ago, vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance walked into a donut shop and ordered donuts. The left-leaning media had a field day because things became awkward when the donut lady expressed hostility about being on camera. The encounter ended with Vance saying, 'Give me some glaze, sprinkle-themed stuff, some of these cinnamon rolls … yeah, whatever makes sense.' View on X"Who orders donuts like that?" the Left screamed. Two weeks later, Vance's opponent Tim...

By tracing the path of these waves through the planet, the researchers found a region a few hundred kilometres thick where they travelled two per cent slower than normal.

    MANCHESTER, N.H. — Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie wondered if the Republican field has what it takes to stop former President Donald Trump. Christie challenged Republicans to find someone who can do to Trump “what I did to Marco” Rubio — a callback to his 2016 debate-stage evisceration of the Republican senator from Florida — “because that’s the only thing that’s going to defeat” Trump. “You have to be fearless, because he will come back — and right at you,” Christie said. “And that means you need to think about who’s got the skill to do that, and who’s...

    PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (CBS12) — A team of sheriff's deputies "conducting an operation regarding illegal street racing" had their work cut out for them when one of the cars almost hit one of them, rammed his SUV, and led authorities on a chase. It all went down last Saturday night, Nov. 19, in Palm Beach Gardens and at one point flew by at 76 mph above the speed limit. Authorities followed "a group of vehicles to numerous locations” and eventually to Alternate A1A near Lighthouse Drive. According to the arrest report, “In excess of 100 vehicles entered the parking...

    What makes Red's Donuts, a 72-year-old Monterey institution, stand out among the thousands of independent California doughnut shops? And were they really the purveyors of Betty White’s favorite morning treat? I just had to find out. SNIP There’s a few reasons why Red’s is the place for doughnuts on the Central Coast. It’s old: Red’s started in 1950 on Alvarado Street, the main drag in downtown Monterey, when Hermann “Red” O’Donnell (the nickname came from his shock of auburn hair) bought it for three grand on a whim. It’s original: While a second location, which now houses the baking operation,...

    I run the coffee and doughnuts after the 9:00 AM Mass here in Phoenix, AZ. On Monday morning I go to our doughnut supplier, a Kroger-owned supermarket, and submit my order for 12 dozen doughnuts, describing how many and what kind. The ladies in the bakery apologized as they informed me that they would not be able to fill my order as described due to a "doughnut shortage". A doughnut shortage?! Is nothing sacred? Here we are fiddling with baby formula and right under our noses I am told that there will be no chocolate doughnuts, no cake donuts, and...

    DES MOINES, Iowa — Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, a 2016 Republican presidential candidate, said there is no evidence that fraud cost Donald Trump re-election as president in 2020 and he wishes Trump would quit claiming that it did. Christie supported Trump’s campaign. But he said that he has used his former skills as a prosecutor to examine the 2020 election and believes that Joe Biden, not Trump, won the election. Christie, who confirmed to WHO 13 News that he is considering another run for president, said that the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol Building was...

    Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, widely viewed as a potential 2024 presidential contender, said former President Donald Trump's administration didn't deliver on its most important policy priorities. Christie said Trump failed to build a wall on the southern US border, repeal the Affordable Care Act, and pass an infrastructure bill, despite making these promises central to his 2016 campaign. "We didn't get a lot of stuff done," Christie told Josh Holmes, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's former chief of staff, during a podcast interview that aired on Tuesday. "Let's just go through the list of things. The wall isn't...

Last month, Haley was asked if she would support former President Trump if he threw his hat in the ring, which she said "yes," but also made clear that she would not launch a GOP primary bid against him. "I would not run if President Trump ran and I would talk to him about it," Haley told the Associated Press. "That’s something that we will have a conversation about...

    Meghan McCain couldn’t hide her disappointment in her political party on this morning’s episode of The View, bashing Republicans for voting to oust Rep. Liz Cheney from House Republican leadership. In response to the congresswoman losing her post after denying the 2020 election was rigged, McCain admitted she was “having a hard time” with the morning’s news. The conservative co-host pointed out that while Cheney has a “hyper-conservative” voting record, her replacement, Rep. Elise Stefanik, is “much more centrist and mushy in the middle politically.” Sharing a “throwback” with viewers, McCain recalled a photoshoot for Elle Magazine’s ’30 Women at...

    Former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) advised former President Donald Trump and his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani to "keep quiet" and "stay off of TV" in an interview Tuesday with Hugh Hewitt. "If I were their lawyer, I would tell all them to keep quiet and not do anything that can help this government make a case against you," Christie said. "And that’s just the basics of criminal defense law. And it’s more difficult for public figures like Mayor Giuliani or President Trump, but first and foremost, if I were their lawyer and that’s the basis you’re asking me this question,...
