EL PASO, Texas – Migrants in El Paso could soon face a dire situation as temperatures drop below freezing and shelters exceed capacity, Deputy City Manager Mario D’Agostino said Tuesday. "Our issue is now that we're looking at capacity within our shelter system," D’Agostino said during a virtual press conference addressing the new surge of immigrants. Coupled with cold weather and even snow flurries, he said there's an "added strain" on the system. About 2,500 people are crossing into the United States near El Paso every day, according to Border Patrol. That's a nearly 50% increase from September's wave of

A black California businessman demanded $600,000 from California taxpayers during the first meeting of the state's reparations task force on Wednesday. Deliberations began on how to quantify how financial compensation might be calculated and what might be required to prove eligibility. One of those who spoke at the public hearing was 35-year-old entrepreneur and the first black professional tri-athlete, Max Fennell who said that every person should get $350,000 in compensation to close the racial wealth gap and Black-owned businesses should receive $250,000, which would help them to flourish. Fennell added: 'It's a debt that's owed, we worked for free,'

A video of Joe Biden appearing to walk around aimlessly while holding toys has gone viral on Twitter, with many ridiculing the president and claiming the clip was digitally altered.

The City of Denver continues to call on nonprofits and religious groups to help out as it struggles to meet the needs of migrants. They are arriving by the dozens this month, and it's likely this is just the beginning. The city says 600 migrants have arrived in Denver in the recent months. Right now more than 150 are being accommodated at the city's emergency shelter. A total of 48 others have been relocated to a church-run shelter, and another 52 migrants arrived earlier this week at local homeless shelters. The city's main focus now is getting those who need
SAN FRANCISCO -- David DePape, a fringe activist drawn to conspiracy theories, returned to a courtroom Wednesday for a preliminary hearing stemming from the brutal October assault of 82-year-old Paul Pelosi in the family's San Francisco home. Wearing an orange jumpsuit, DePape sat at the defense table. In the crowded courtroom was Christine Pelosi, one of the Pelosis' five adult children. The hearing got off to a quick start with prosecutors playing audio of Paul Pelosi's 911 call to San Francisco police. The audio recording was followed by one of the SFPD officers -- officer Kyle Cagney -- who responded to the home

Winter storms are pummeling the United States, snow is piling up, temperatures are dropping, traffic is snarling and there’s always the threat of thunderstorms and thundersnow. Just like clockwork, the emails, tweets and Facebook posts start flowing. Maybe it's a joke, maybe it's a snarky critique, maybe it's a meme. The words change, but the format is familiar: If global warming is real, why is it so cold out? Scientists likely don't think that joke is as funny as another familiar climate change quip: Never argue about climate change – it always turns into a heated debate. But we asked
Cambridge Dictionary changed the definition of the word “woman” and critics are not happy about it. Christopher Rufo, a fellow at the Manhattan Institute, shared the new definition on Twitter. According to the dictionary, a woman is “an adult who lives and identifies as female though they may have been said to have a different sex at birth.” The dictionary includes two examples of using the word. “She was the first trans woman elected to a national office,” one example states. Another reads, “Mary is a woman who was assigned male at birth.” (Tweet) Attorney Marina Medvin reacted, saying, “Imagine
DENVER - The Colorado Secretary of State certified the 2022 General Election on Monday. “The certification was conducted after each county’s bipartisan canvass boards submitted their official abstract of votes to the Secretary of State’s Office, as well as the conclusion of a mandatory recount in the race for Colorado’s U.S. Congressional District 3 and permissive recount of the Colorado House District 43 race,” part of a news release from the Secretary of State’s Office reads.

Washington DC will permanently offer free bus rides on all routes from next summer and other big cities like Boston and Denver may follow suit in what would be America's biggest public transport shakeup in years. Under a plan agreed unanimously by Washington DC's council last week, the city will expand its transport services and waive the $2 fares for riders boarding Metrobuses within city limits from around July 1. During the Covid-19 pandemic, cities from Los Angeles to Missouri and New York stopped collecting bus fares to cut human contact and ensure residents could reach jobs and services at
Former Secretary of State and current Fox News contributor Mike Pompeo said Sunday that the controversial prisoner swap with Russia, in which WNBA star Brittney Griner was released from Russian detention in exchange for Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout, will make it "more likely" for celebrities and other notables to be taken hostage abroad. Pompeo told "Fox News Sunday" anchor Shannon Bream that the Trump administration – in which he served – was careful not to create incentives for U.S. adversaries when negotiating prisoner exchanges. "The Trump administration was always very clear," he said. "We weren’t going to trade bad
Susan Sarandon has come out as bisexual in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. During an appearance on the show back in September, Susan, 76, opened up about her sexuality in a candid chat with the host. The Dead Man Walking actress casually confirmed her own bisexuality when making a joke about cats and dogs. During the chat, Jimmy mentioned that Susan had brought her dogs out on a previous appearance she had made on the show. The Academy Award winner then informed the host that unfortunately her dogs had died a year before. She explained:
Karen Bass takes office as Los Angeles mayor with high hopes, having received a record number of votes, but she faces the immediate challenge of tackling a homeless crisis that has grown worse over recent years.

Outgoing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi won re-election last month for the 18th time last month. She’s been serving in the House since assuming office in June, 1987.
But will she continue to serve for another two years, completing the term of the 118th Congress? Don’t ask me.
Don’t ask her, either — it’s not a question she wants to answer, apparently.
Reporters who didn’t know that, if there were any, found out during a Thursday news conference when someone had the audacity to bring it up.
“Will you commit to serving your full two-year term for the people of San Francisco?” a reporter asked.
“What is this? What is this?” Pelosi responded.

Actor Faizon Love has lashed out at the notion that black people in California will be given $223,000 in reparations, saying that the money will only be used to purchase luxury cars.

Speculation about the circumstances and motivations behind the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy, rife at the time the tragedy occurred, has never stopped. While Kennedy’s murderer was declared soon after the assassination to have worked alone, one insider claimed to Fox News host Tucker Carlson that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was directly involved with JFK’s assassination.
Carlson noted that questions about the Kennedy assassination have been circulating since it happened, simply because there were a lot of details that didn’t add up or seemed too coincidental. The CIA refused to release its documentation on the killing.
"This would be the greatest regulatory overreach in American maritime law" — that’s how Frank Hugelmeyer describes a proposal by the Biden administration to limit the speed of all motorboats over 35 feet from Florida to Massachusetts. "Not only are they creating a serious safety issue, they are creating a massive negative economic impact."
Hugelmeyer is president of the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), and he is just one of a growing number of voices expressing outrage over the proposal put forward by the U.S. Commerce Department under the auspices of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Matt Rosendale (R-MT), Bob Good (R-VA), and Ralph Norman (R-SC).
