Not only when it comes to Donbas but also to other countries in a similar situation. The UN has not been reacting,” Vito Grittani told reporters in Donetsk. The International Diplomatic Observatory (ODI-VG), which has consultative status with the UN’s Economic and Social Council, is headed by Grittani, who said the Ukrainian troops shelled the…

The family of Jeffrey Dahmer’s 11th murder victim say they have been re-traumatized by Netflix’s reenactment of a highly emotional courtroom breakdown by one of their members. The cousin of 19-yer-old Errol Lindsey, who disappeared from a Milwaukee mall, took to Twitter to slam Netflix’s new series Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story. “I’m not telling anyone what to watch, I know true crime media is huge rn [right now], but if you’re actually curious about the victims, my family (the Isbell’s) are pissed about this show. It’s retraumatizing over and over again, and for what? How many movies/shows/documentaries do we…

NASCAR may not be known for fights, but the racers are as competitive as any other sport and Saturday in Virginia a multi-car crash led to one driver being pulled away from another as he “started Mike Tyson-ing” another’s head. Considered the biggest late model stock car race, the ValleyStar Credit Union 300 was only in the first of four heats Saturday afternoon at Martinsville Speedway in Ridgeway, VA when a wreck inspired one racer to violence. As the NASCAR Roots series event was underway, footage of the incident showed Andrew Grady attacking Davey Callihan, presumably still buckled into his…

Unity within the GOP may be up for debate as heavy-hitters have pitted endorsements against each other in Republican primaries throughout the year, but according to House Republican Conference Chair Rep. Elise Stefanik (NY) talk of division is a distraction from the fact that “Democrats have no plan.” (Video: Fox News) The congresswoman joined “Fox News Sunday” host Shannon Bream as part of the recent rollout of the Commitment to America Republicans are coalescing around as the party’s plan for the 118th Congress should they win the majority in November. While its brevity makes the commitment easy to consume, Bream…

President Joe Biden is lying about guns again. He told his latest lie while speaking at the National Education Association’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. this past Friday. “Look, I support the Second Amendment. … But here’s the thing: There’s no justification for a weapon of war. None. The speed of that bullet is five times that that comes out of the muzzle of most weapons. It can penetrate your vests,” he said. He was reportedly talking about AR-15s. There’s just one problem. According to legal scholar Jonathan Turley, “AR-15 rounds move at approximately 2,700 – 3,100 fps.” Regular bullets meanwhile…

It was just another Saturday night in crime-ridden Philadelphia, one of the Democrat-controlled cities where the policies of feckless and ideological officials have emboldened rampant criminality, this time with a mob of what appear to be juveniles rampaging through a Wawa convenience store, leaving destruction in their wake. The action went down at a WaWa food market in the city of brotherly love’s Mayfair section when normal business was interrupted by a large group of unruly people who appear to have worked in coordination given their sudden appearance and methodical ransacking of the store as bewildered employees watched the carnage…

Back in March of 2021, former President Donald Trump sat with The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman — a known anti-Trump “journalist” — for three separate interviews. Why? Nobody knows. What is now known, thanks to an excerpt from Haberman’s upcoming Trump-themed book that was published Sunday, is that the president allegedly thinks very negatively of some of his top Republican colleagues. These include Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell, former Vice President Mike Pence, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Congratulations to ⁦@maggieNYT⁩ on publication of her excerpt from “The Confidence Man,” which comes out next week. Looking forward to reading…
