Fired CNN host Don Lemon is back again wringing his hands over convicted murderer Karmelo Anthony, and he wants you to feel sorry for the teenager who stabbed 17-year-old Austin Metcalf in the heart at a high school track meet. A Texas judge on Saturday denied Anthony’s motion for a new trial, leaving his murder conviction and 35-year prison sentence intact. Anthony was convicted in June of murdering 17-year-old Austin during a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, on April 2, 2025. Austin died in the arms of his twin brother, Hunter. But Lemon appears far more troubled by…

Hundreds of Ceuta residents on Tuesday staged a peaceful protest against the Spanish government over its plans to shelter invading migrants in several local facilities and public sports centers. The protest was organized by local communities who are fed up with the worsening living conditions left by the massive migrant invasion of the Spanish exclave and the central government’s handling of the ongoing crisis. While it reportedly conceived as a localized protest, it rapidly evolved into a much broader peaceful rally across the city. Many of the protesters espoused chants against socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, calling him a “Son…

Nearly 20 years after the release of National Treasure 2 in 2007, director Jon Turteltaub is prepping part three and is promising to ruin it with politics. This franchise began with National Treasure in 2004, and its all-star cast included Nicolas Cage, Jon Voight, Harvey Keitel, and Diane Kruger. The hit delivered a nearly $350 million worldwide gross. In 2007, National Treasure: Book of Secrets reunited much of the same cast and grossed an even more impressive $460 million worldwide. So, what happened? Why no sequel? If the second movie grosses more than the first, there’s a sequel, correct? Well, of…

President Trump Delivers his 2026 State of the Union Address – The White House The Trump administration has temporarily paused and rescheduled immigrant visa interviews at United States embassies and consulates worldwide as part of a sweeping new screening initiative. A State Department spokesperson confirmed that the agency launched a global training program at every American embassy and consulate. Visa appointments are being adjusted while consular officers undergo the training, according to Reuters.

The Chinese Embassy in Panama published a bizarre image on Monday of a sobbing shumai, a form of dumpling typically left open on the top, with a microphone stuck into it as a form of protest against American diplomats. The Chinese state newspaper Global Times, which published an extensive analysis piece praising the cartoon, claimed that the image was meant to mock the alleged paranoia of American officials who warn leaders in friendly countries that Chinese technology giants such as Huawei and ZTE pose a security threat. The Chinese companies, close to the communist regime, have been repeatedly accused of…

As the world joined as one to praise the late Dolly Parton, British author J.K. Rowling was happy to be amongst them while dispensing with trans mob members who chose to abuse her for her views. The Harry Potter creator, who wears her anti-trans views with pride in defiance of woke critics, praised the late country icon as an “irreplaceable one-off” in a heartfelt tribute she shared on social media. Rowling said: “Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library was the best contribution to child literacy ever made by a celebrity,” before revealing a personal encounter with the star, adding: “Our paths crossed once,…

The U.S. economy expanded at a 1.5 percent pace in the second quarter of this year, the Bureau of Economic Analysis said Wednesday. While the overall pace of growth was unrevised in the government’s second estimate, the report showed that both consumer spending and business investment were stronger than previously thought. Consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of economic activity, grew at an annualized 3.4 percent pace, faster than the 3.2 percent estimated earlier. Spending on services was far stronger than previously estimated, with the second-quarter growth rate revised up from roughly 2.2 percent to 3.1 percent. Goods spending…

It was a day unlike any other in the 46-year history of CNN, a day when CNN’s lying, self-serving bias, misinformation, and disinformation ceased for nearly 30 minutes. This miracle began sometime after noon E.T. on Monday, August 24, 2026, a miracle witnessed by the one-third of one percent of Americans who sat spellbound, staring in awe, wonder, and confusion at a CNN that, for a brief and shining moment, stopped doing this… But, somehow, even those of us who were not watching — or, roughly 99.7 percent of Americans — still felt it. Yes, across this great nation of…
