A panel on CNN sounded stunned when they found out that some people on social media believe a man with 14 arrests should be locked away for a very long time – if not life. That man in question is murderer Decarlos Brown Jr. who stabbed Iryna Zarutska, a young Ukrainian refugee on a train, for no apparent reason, leaving her to bleed to death. Had Brown been locked up, for any length of time after 14 arrests, then her murder might have been prevented. Abby Phillips said: “He did actually serve time… He should have been locked away for…
Van Jones was on CNN talking about the horrific murder of 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska. She was stabbed to death on a North Carolina train by Decarlos Brown Jr. Van Jones was criticizing commentator, Charlie Kirk, for saying the crime could be race related. Jones then said, “It’s not about cashless bail or no cashless bail, it’s about the fact that we don’t know how to deal with people who are hurting in the way this man was hurting. Hurt people hurt people.” Jones continued: “What happened was horrible, but it becomes an opportunity for people to jump on…
Kyle Schwarber just dinged his 50th homerun of the season in a 9-3 victory over the visiting New York Mets. Schwarber is the second Phillies player to hit 50 home runs in a season. Ryan Howard hit 58 home runs in 2006. The Phillies have 17 games left in September, giving the Schwarbomb plenty of time to catch up to Ryan Howard’s Phillies record. Historic Phillies 3rd baseman Mike Schmidt still leads the Phillies in home runs all-time, hitting 548 over his career. Ryan Howard ranks second, with 382 home runs. Del Ennis is third, with 259 home runs. Pat…
Superstar defensive lineman Jalen Carter spit on Dak Prescott in the NFL season opener. Carter got ejected before he played a single snap, but the Eagles still pulled out a victory. The NFL decided to fine Jalen Carter and considered his ejection to be just as good as a one game suspension. Carter didn’t play a single snap in the game, so he basically missed the entire game. He’ll be fined $57,222 according to Adam Schefter, who posted the following message on X: “NFL is fining Eagles DT Jalen Carter $57,222 for spitting on Dak Prescott. The league also says…
Don Lemon was cussed out in public when he tried talking to a complete stranger in New York City. The man called Lemon a “f*cking moron” and made comments about CNN and MSNBC. The incident was recorded and went viral on social media platforms like Instagram, X, and Facebook. The man, who appeared to be English, confronted Lemon after Lemon identified himself. The man accused CNN and MSNBC of being dishonest, claiming they “lie”. The man also admitted that while he doesn’t regularly watch Lemon, he has seen many clips of him on social media and they weren’t good. Watch…
President Donald Trump clashed with a reporter while discussing the crime crackdown taking place in Chicago. REPORTER: Are you ready to go to war with Chicago? TRUMP: When you say that, darling, that’s fake news. Listen. Be QUIET. Listen. You don’t listen, you never listen. That’s why you’re second rate. We’re not going to war…we’re gonna clean cities up so they don’t kill 5 people every weekend. That’s not war – that’s COMMON SENSE. The Trump administration launched Operation Midway Blitz, an immigration enforcement initiative aimed at undocumented individuals with criminal records in Illinois. It was not a broader crime…
Democratic socialist and New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani supports reducing the jail population through comprehensive public safety reforms. His platform focuses on a community-based approach to safety that expands mental health outreach and addresses underlying causes of crime rather than relying solely on incarceration. Mamdani has proposed creating a Department of Community Safety to expand mental health outreach services. He argues that “dignified work, economic stability, and well-resourced neighborhoods” are more effective at preventing harm and improving public safety than increasing policing and incarceration. The candidate contends that a heavy reliance on police to fix societal problems prevents…
Icelandic strongman Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (aka “Thor” and “The Mountain”) recently broke his own world record in the deadlift. Björnsson successfully deadlifted an astounding 510 kg (1,124.4 lb) at the 2025 World Deadlift Championships in Birmingham, England. This surpasses his previous world record of 505 kg, which he set in July 2025 at the Eisenhart Black Deadlift Championships. He first set the world record in May 2020 by deadlifting 501 kg at his home gym in Iceland. Watch Thor Björnsson set the record on video:
The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) stopped providing special security for former Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday, September 6, 2025, just days after it had begun. The temporary protection was initiated after President Trump rescinded her Secret Service detail. In late August 2025, President Trump canceled Harris’s Secret Service detail. Before leaving office, former President Joe Biden had extended the protection for his vice president beyond the standard six months, to an 18-month period that would have lasted until July 2026. In response to the termination of her federal protection, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the LAPD began…
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the launch of “Operation Midway Blitz” on September 8, 2025. The immigration enforcement initiative targets undocumented immigrants, particularly those with criminal records, in Chicago and the state of Illinois. The operation has been met with both support from the Trump administration and backlash from Illinois officials and immigration advocates. According to DHS, the operation aims to target “criminal illegal aliens” whom the department claims have “flocked to Chicago and Illinois” due to sanctuary city policies. The initiative was named in honor of Katie Abraham, a 20-year-old from suburban Chicago who was killed…
ICE arrested a convicted sex offender who somehow still landed a job with the Minnesota Department of Education. The offender is Wilson Tindi and he worked as the Director of Internal Audit and Advisory Services at the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE). His appointment gained public attention in July 2025 due to a criminal conviction for sexual assault in 2016 that did not result in his deportation. In 2016, Tindi was convicted of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct for assaulting a sleeping woman after breaking into her home in Minnesota. He pleaded guilty in exchange for the dismissal of a first-degree…
The Philadelphia Phillies were fresh off a 1-0 win against the New York Mets. Pitcher Aaron Nola has returned from his long break due to injury and was making another start. He allowed 0 runs in the effort, after giving up 5 runs alone in a single inning during his last game. It was a bright spot for Nola and reporters were talking to him after the game. During the discussion, someone – most likely another Phillies player, had ripped a funny sounding fart and everyone started laughing. The Phillies fart was caught on video.
The Savannah Bananas recently trolled a Philadelphia Phillies fan, dubbed “Phillies Karen” by the internet, during their debut at Petco Park in San Diego by reenacting a viral incident where the fan tried to claim a home run ball from a child. The original incident occurred at LoanDepot Park during a Miami Marlins game when Harrison Bader hit a home run. A father caught the ball and was seen giving it to his 10-year-old son. A woman, later identified as the “Phillies Karen,” then confronted the father, demanding the ball back claiming it was hers. The interaction was captured on…
The Chicago Bears were booed off the field after their epic collapse to the visiting Minnesota Vikings. The Bears were up 17-6 at one point, then gave up 21 points in the 4th quarter while only scoring 7 more themselves. The final score had the Vikings beating the Bears 27-24 at Soldier Field. To add insults to the loss, the Bears lost to rookie quarterback JJ McCarthy on his first NFL start. Bears quarterback Caleb Williams didn’t help much, looking exceptionally off on many throws, with some wide receivers being completely open – and Williams simply overthrowing or not even…
A conversation between billionaire Mark Cuban and Tucker Carlson went viral for the wrong reasons. Cuban is a huge supporter of helping Ukraine during their conflict with Russia. Carlson asked him how much money he’s sent to help, and the answer was ZERO. Mark Cuban has a net worth in the billions. The conversation went something like this: CUBAN: “Half my family is Ukrainian… I think we should help.” TUCKER: “How much money have you sent to Ukraine?” CUBAN: “None.” TUCKER: “If you think we need to help, why don’t you start?” The conversation had critics saying that Cuban should…
Mayor Karen Bass expressed her distaste for the Supreme Court who recently lifted restrictions on ICE raids. The court ruled 6-3 to remove the restrictions and allow ICE to continue their work as they seek and deport illegal immigrants in major cities like Los Angeles. DHS issued a statement on social media, saying: “DHS law enforcement will continue to FLOOD THE ZONE in Los Angeles.” DHS also said the Supreme Court decision is “a victory for the safety of Americans in California and for the rule of law,” and that they will “arrest and remove the criminal” illegal immigrants that…
A boat carrying Greta Thunberg and other activists towards Gaza caught on fire and some people blamed a drone strike. However, there was no evidence of drones in the area. The video below also suggests that something was on fire above them, then landed on the boat and erupted into more flames. It’s very possible that someone on the boat fired a flare, then the flare dropped back onto the boat. An article on Newsweek talked about how the organizers of the boat, the Global Sumud Flotilla, had accused Israel of conducting a drone strike. However, Tunisian authorities reported there’s…
Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was exposed for spending thousands on hotels/spa during her “Fighting Oligarchy” tour with Sen. Bernie Sanders, according to campaign filings reported by the NY Post. AOC spent $3,508.92 at the Vdara Hotel & Spa in Las Vegas, despite the event being held further away from Vegas, suggesting they could’ve stayed elsewhere but chose the expensive hotel instead. Her campaign also spent $3,445.59 at another fancy hotel, Asher Adams, in Salt Lake City, Utah. On the same day as the Asher Adams payment, AOC’s campaign recorded a $3,165.76 disbursement to the Leo Kent Hotel in Tucson, Arizona.…
A 23-year-old Ukrainian woman fled the war, came to America, and was killed by a man on public transportation in America. The crime took place in Charlotte, North Carolina. The victim was identified as Iryna Zarutska. The suspect was identified as Decarlos Brown, 34, who has a long criminal history and was arrested over a dozen times. Some critics want the judges who freed this man held accountable. Zarutska had stepped onto the train and sat down in front of Brown. The two did not have any interaction whatsoever. Brown takes something out of his pocket, which could’ve been the…
Rookie wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter was supposed to make all the headlines this week, but his wife stole the show instead. The Jacksonville Jaguars dual threat was drafted second this year and helped his team beat the Carolina Panthers 26-10. Except, it seems like his wife put on more of a show than he did! He caught six passes for 33 yards and played six snaps on defense. No one else in the last 20 years had recorded five or more catches AND five defensive snaps in a single game. So he did something somewhat special, but it…
