A Rhode Island high school teacher who sparked outrage after referring to slain Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk as "garbage" following his assassination has been honored in the school's 2026 yearbook, reigniting criticism over the educator's comments and the school's response.Shortly after Kirk’s public assassination on Sept. 10 while speaking at Utah Valley University during his "American Comeback Tour," Benjamin Fillo, a social studies teacher at Barrington High School in Rhode Island, posted a video online saying that Kirk "hated the LGBTQ community" and "hated women’s rights."Fillo, who was placed on administrative leave after his video post, also said

Florida Republican gubernatorial primary candidate James Fishback, who has called abortion "a holocaust," wants to close every abortion clinic throughout the Sunshine State."Ron DeSantis is the most pro-life Governor in America, and I intend to build on his incredible work.

As I write this, I am sitting in stillness for the first time in a while. I’ve been walking across America for nearly 200 days, and I admit I’m itching to get back onto the open road. I loved the walk — meeting new people, seeing the hidden corners of America, and learning her stories.But the doctors have made it plain that I cannot walk anymore. When I had my first surgery to remove a painful growth called a pyogenic granuloma from my heel, I thought I was good to go. However, that growth came back with a vengeance in

The headlines say Donald Trump "stormed" out of his interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker.The reality was a little more subtle.It’s easy to second-guess. The natural tension that comes with interviewing any politician for television – but especially this president, who can dominate this kind of sit-down – calls for split-second judgments.Having interviewed Trump numerous times – especially in a high-stakes session two weeks before the election, at his invitation – gives me a certain perspective.TRUMP STORMS OFF 'MEET THE PRESS' INTERVIEW, RIPS WELKER, ABC, CBS, CNN AS 'CROOKED'Things did not end well with Welker:"You’re crooked, your press is crooked, And

As a result, the Knicks' 13-game playoff win streak has been snapped.Victor Wembanyama, who had a chance to win Game 2 but missed his final shot, finished with 32 points, eight rebounds and six assists

A growing consortium of University of California professors is urging the state university system to bring back standardized testing, warning that the elimination of admissions tests has degraded academic readiness and forced instructors to teach "middle school math" to college undergraduates.More than 1,400 UC faculty members have signed an open letter calling on leadership to reinstate the SAT and ACT mathematics requirements for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) majors. The massive pushback follows a dramatic multi-year decline in student proficiency after the university went completely "test-blind" in 2021.Karajean Hyde, Co-Director of the UC Irvine Math Project and a Lecturer

Out in the woods in the middle of nowhere isn’t the only place people claim to have seen Bigfoot and not been able to get a single picture of the creature. As we’re about to get into, sightings can also take place on the beach at dusk near a lighthouse.That time of day makes the lack of evidence collected much more understandable. Visibility wasn’t great and the two witnesses and a dog saw a large silhouette of what was described as a "dark figure" with the build of a "very big lumberjack with no neck."It was either a huge lumberjack

EXCLUSIVE: Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen said Ukraine has gained new leverage against Russia, arguing that Moscow’s renewed talk of negotiations comes as Kyiv has strengthened itself militarily, politically and diplomatically.Valtonen’s comments carry particular weight because Finland is one of NATO’s newest members and now sits on the alliance’s longest border with Russia. Finland joined NATO in April 2023 after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, ending decades of military nonalignment and transforming the country into a frontline state in Europe’s security posture."Ukraine certainly is now holding the cards," Valtonen told Fox News Digital Monday in an interview at the United

Last week, ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith begged President Donald Trump not to attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden."I don't want him there," Smith said. "It has nothing to do with politics, policy, or anything like that. It has everything to do with him disrupting and contributing at the same time to the chaos that's going to exist at Madison Square Garden."To Smith's chagrin, Trump didn't listen. The president is expected to attend Monday night's game as the Knicks look to take a 3-0 series lead over the San Antonio Spurs.Smith addressed Trump's attendance again

I've done this 'racin deal for a long time, as Darrell Waltrip (D-Dubya!) would say. I've watched a lot of NASCAR races. Covered a lot of Daytona 500s. Seen a lot of nasty wrecks.A lot of nasty wrecks.Only a few, however, have made me queasy: The infamous Ryan Newman crash in the 2020 Daytona 500, a Ryan Blaney crash at the 2023 Firecracker, and an Erik Jones wreck at Talladega the following season.That's it. That's the list.The Chase Elliott-Christopher Bell wreck Sunday afternoon at Michigan had this NASCAR fan feeling queasy. Lord knows it had other drivers feeling the same

Imagine, for a moment, that Graham Platner was a Republican.The Democrats would be going nuclear, declaring him a horrible human being.He’s utterly unfit for office, they would shout, sexting other women while he was married.How could he represent Maine in the Senate, they would say, when he was sporting a Nazi tattoo?WATCH: MAINE VOTERS DIVIDED ON PLATNER AS SCANDALS SHADOW DEMOCRATIC PRIMARYLook at the New York Times, which found three women who say he physically manhandled them and made them extremely uncomfortable.How could the Republicans even dream that he could win an election?But of course, Platner is a Democrat –

As testimony in the Karmelo Anthony murder trial resumes Monday, one Texas attorney says the case could ultimately turn less on the fatal confrontation itself and more on how jurors interpret questions of self-defense, race, any prior interactions between the teens and even the unique culture of high school track meets.Anthony, who is accused of fatally stabbing fellow student Austin Metcalf during a confrontation at a Texas track meet last year, has pleaded not guilty and is arguing he acted in self-defense. The closely watched trial began last week amid intense public scrutiny and debate surrounding the case.Prosecutors rested their

Sharon Stone said that HBO's controversial show "Euphoria" should be shown in America’s high schools and that parents "should have to see it."During a conversation with Keke Palmer for Variety's "Actors on Actors" series, the 68-year-old actress, who joined the cast of "Euphoria" for its recently concluded third and final season, heaped praise on the show, which has drawn criticism for its graphic depictions of sex, drug use and violence."I think it’s the greatest show on television," the "Basic Instinct" star said."Euphoria," which premiered in 2019, centered on a group of high school students confronting the challenges of adolescence, but

It's almost becoming repetitive at this point. A Star Wars-related property has disappointed relative to pre-release expectations.Seven years after the release of "The Rise of Skywalker," Disney and Lucasfilm hoped that they could relaunch the all-important franchise with "The Mandalorian and Grogu." And in doing so, once again revealed that they understand very little about the audience they're trying to serve.When "The Force Awakens" hit theaters under the leadership of then-Lucasfilm head Kathleen Kennedy, it was a tremendous financial success. While hardly reinventing the wheel creatively, it at least provided a solid foundation for the franchise to build from. But

Covering the NBA gives you a chance to see a lot of posts from people and a lot of content that makes you shake your head. Almost every casual fan thinks the game consists of nothing but flopping, 3-point shooting only, and either the most skilled players ever, or the worst defenders ever. It is an era of hot takes and all-or-nothing mentality.It is easier to just watch a highlight and draw a conclusion than watch a full game and see the beautiful passing and movement that sets up those corner threes that we get so bored with.
