Thomas Matthew Crooks in a school photo. (@itscarterhughes / X) Stunning new details have emerged regarding Thomas Crooks, President Trump’s would-be assassin in Butler, Pennsylvania, two years ago. On Tuesday, Fox News reviewed federal records turned over to the Senate, which will raise questions about why such information regarding Crooks has not come out before. For instance, Thomas Crooks’s father, Matthew Crooks, then took an early retirement shortly after the shooting, while his mother, Mary Crooks, went on leave from work to “process the situation.” This did not seem to be a family with significant financial means, especially since they…

China’s state-run Global Times on Monday admitted efforts by the BRICS economic bloc to establish international standards for artificial intelligence (A.I.) research have been stymied by the simmering hostility between China and India.

Former late-night host Stephen Colbert took home the Emmy for Best Variety Series following the show’s cancelation earlier this year. His speech mostly centered on celebrating his crew while pleading with industry leaders to hire them. “The thing about these late shows is that besides being a really good steady job, is that they require so many people,” he said. “That they’re a fantastic incubator for young people to come in, to learn to work…

Vice President JD Vance rallied House Republicans in a pre-midterm Capitol Hill visit Tuesday, encouraging members to support each other on the campaign trail and through fundraising.He did not address the topic that has dominated conversations in Congress in recent days: the risk posed by artificial intelligence and what, if anything, lawmakers ought to do about it.Instead, according to five people in the room granted anonymity to comment on the private meeting, the vice president urged Republicans in safe seats to help their vulnerable colleague and encouraged members to focus on the “choice” voters face with Democrats.“I was kind of…

President Donald Trump attacked the Supreme Court over its decision to block his mail-in ballot plan on Tuesday, sharply targeting his three nominees on the bench and saying “these are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court.”In the ruling Monday night, none of Trump’s three picks for the court from his first term — Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch or Amy Coney Barrett — indicated support for his attempt to implement mail-in voting limits during the midterms.“[The justices] are merely a shell of their original selves, a court that is costing the United States Trillions…

22-year-old unseats incumbent as mayor of Stockbridge Ten months. That is how long it took for Georgia’s youngest elected mayor, a media-anointed “historic” figure who once called himself “the Obama of my family,” to be thrown out of office. Jayden Williams, 23, was removed Saturday by the Stockbridge City Council after a roughly 10-hour investigative hearing into allegations that he treated the city purchasing card like a personal wallet and traded sexually suggestive messages and explicit images with an 18-year-old male high school student. The city confirmed the result on Sunday. “The City of Stockbridge confirms that the City Council…
