Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has seen no indication that a 10-year-old girl from his state traveled to Indiana for an abortion, fueling questions about the veracity of a report President Biden cited to boost his pro-choice agenda. Mr. Yost said Monday that his office has heard “not a whisper” about a case involving the rape of a young Ohio girl, which went viral last week.(Snip)“Something that may be even more telling: My office runs the crime lab,” Mr. Yost added. “Any case like this, you’re going to have a rape kit, you’re going to have biological evidence, and you’d be looking for DNA analysis,

First lady Jill Biden on Monday mispronounced “bodega” during a speech to a Hispanic advocacy group—drawing renewed comparisons to cartoon fellow teacher Peggy Hill. Biden hailed the “bow-get-taas” of The Bronx during a speech in San Antonio, Texas, with such confidence that social media users recalled the “King of the Hill” cartoon character, a substitute teacher in Texas who taught Spanish without being able to correctly say “Español.” The first lady’s pronunciation was closer to that of Colombian capital “Bogotá” than the standard pronunciation “bow-day-guh.” The term bodega in the US refers to a small neighborhood grocery. It originated with New York City’s Puerto Rican

President Biden confused his centuries on Monday, saying that 17 people were gunned down at a Parkland, Fla., high school in “1918,” rather than 2018. “Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida—1918, 17 dead, 17 injured,” the oldest-ever US president said on the White House lawn as he celebrated a gun-policy law that he signed last month to enhance background checks on young would-be firearm buyers, among other reforms.(Snip)Last month, Biden struggled to read “LGBTQI+” from a teleprompter, saying instead, “LGBTQL, I, excuse me, plus.” In May, he also struggled to say AANHPI—a term for people of Asian or Pacific Islander ancestry

Two people were killed and three wounded in shootings before dawn Monday at four 7-Eleven stores in Southern California and authorities said they were seeking a lone gunman in at least three of the shootings. The shootings appear to have occurred after robberies or attempted robberies at the four convenience stores on July 11, or 7/11—a day when the national 7-Eleven brand is celebrating its 95th birthday by giving out free Slurpee drinks.(Snip)'There's no way it can be a coincidence of it being 7-Eleven, July 11.'(Snip)Surveillance photos, posted to social media by Brea police, show a masked man wearing a black sweatshirt

Shreveport, La.–One man is charged after violence erupted during a funeral Saturday in Shreveport for the victim of a rolling shootout.
It happened just before noon at Peaceful Rest Baptist Church during services for 24-year-old Orlando Puryear, Jr., who was fatally shot July 4 in southwest Shreveport. Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office says Puryear’s 52-year-old uncle, Endrick Butler, started a fight. “I noticed the guy up in the second balcony up there, and he was standing over a guy,” said a woman who witnessed the brawl. “I didn’t know what they were doing. And then all of a sudden, I saw him choke this young man

“Coming out of my transition was like leaving the twilight zone, but the rest of society is still in it.” After living nearly a decade of his life as a transgender woman named Brianna, Brian Wagoner ultimately came to realize his transition had been a mistake. In February, the 31-year-old made the decision to detransition back to his biological gender and live once again as a man. “It was basically like medical professionals cheering on a girl with bulimia for puking up her lunch when her ribs are already poking out,” he said of the estrogen treatment he was put on for years.(Snip)They see the dollar signs,

A 17-year-old girl who de-transitioned from a boy has warned against letting children change gender. Chloe Cole opened up about how taking puberty blockers and having surgery 'irreversibly and painfully' damaged her body from the age of 13. She said it has left her unlikely to be able to have children and unable to breastfeed if she can because she had a double mastectomy. She also told how she could be at risk of certain types of cancer—such as cervical cancer—due to her invasive treatment. Chloe revealed her trauma in heartbreaking testimony during a hearing on reimbursements being made to those seeking hormone therapy in Florida.

A pair of suspected Mexican drug-cartel smugglers was busted with a $1.2 million stash of crystal meth—but had to be freed thanks to New York’s lax bail laws, authorities said Monday. The two California men, Luis Estrada and Carlos Santos, were allegedly caught red-handed by the US Drug Enforcement Administration as part of a multi-agency investigation. Yet frustrated agents had to stand by and watch as the suspects were cut loose on just supervised release, the federal agency said. That’s because the two men could only be charged with second-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, as opposed to a narcotic, under the state’s outdated

A Dutch-based food depot for a climate-friendly online delivery service destroyed by fire on Sunday ignited conspiracy theories the blaze was linked to one of its chief investors, Bill Gates.
The depot housed products for Picnic in the Dutch town of Almelo, about 90 miles east of Amsterdam. Picnic, which has a valuation said to be north of $1 billion, bills itself as a climate-friendly unicorn that offers delivery service to customers straight from distribution hubs. The hub in Almelo served about 200 cities throughout Germany, France and the Netherlands. Groceries are transported to customers’ doorsteps in small, all-electric vans.

Prosecutors may have a case for federal prostitution offenses against Hunter Biden, according to documents, texts and videos that show he spent a staggering $30,000 on escorts in a five-month period. The president's son wrote checks to a Ukrainian woman whose transactions were red-flagged by banks for suspicious activity, documents reveal. A Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) filed by JPMorgan Chase named Florida and New York-based Ekaterina Moreva after she received tens of thousands of dollars from Hunter's company and women who the First Son paid for sex.(Snip)Some of Hunter's hooker payments came just hours after he received thousands of dollars from his father.

Ukraine’s defense minister has described long-range rocket systems supplied by the US as a “game-changer” in Kyiv’s fight against Russia’s brutal, months-long invasion—but insisted the Eastern European country needs more help to secure ultimate victory.
“We are waiting for more armor, more weaponry from our partners,” Oleksii Reznikov told the Wall Street Journal in an interview published Sunday. “The war is grim… We need more. We need it quickly.” The High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems—known as HIMARS—have allowed Ukrainian troops to precisely target Russian forces from up to 50 miles away.(Snip)Reznikov’s comments came days after the Biden administration announced it would send another
