LITTLETON, Colo. — Multiple businesses at a Littleton shopping center were evacuated Sunday afternoon following an electric vehicle fire. Crews with South Metro Fire Rescue (SMFR) responded to a parking lot at 100 W. Littleton Boulevard on a report of a Nissan Leaf on fire around noon. (Snip) In an update posted to X, the agency stated that crews allowed the vehicle to burn to mitigate any environmental impact and then placed a fire blanket over the car before it was towed. Businesses in the surrounding area reopened after air monitoring was completed. Electric vehicles with lithium-ion batteries can catch fire

Denmark on Sunday ordered a ban on civil drone flights, after several unmanned aerial vehicles were witnessed at military facilities overnight, following a week in which drone sorties caused the temporary closures of several airports in the Nordic country. The Danish military said it had deployed "several capacities" in response to the overnight drone sightings. Earlier this week, drones forced Denmark to close its airports, including Copenhagen Airport, which was closed for nearly four hours on Monday. Denmark has called the drones part of a "hybrid attack" but the government has stopped short of saying definitively who it believes is behind the missions.

WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he would tell a gathering of U.S. generals and admirals in Quantico, Virginia, that they were cherished leaders who needed to be strong and tough. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth summoned senior U.S. military leaders from around the world for a meeting in Quantico on Tuesday -- a rare gathering of the country's military leadership in one location. "I want to tell the generals that we love them, they're cherished leaders, to be strong, be tough and be smart and be compassionate," Trump told Reuters in an interview. "That's all that is, esprit de corps. It's about time somebody did that," he added.

The deranged madman who killed at least two people and injured nine others at a Michigan Latter-day Saints church, torching the building and opening fire on fleeing congregants and their families, has been identified as 40-year-old Thomas Jacob Sanford, The Post can confirm. Sanford, a US Marine veteran, according to his mom’s Facebook page, rammed his Chevy Silverado truck into the building before unleashing the assault on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, armed with a semi-automatic rifleAn old Facebook post by Sanford’s mothersays the gunan (snip)served in Iraq from 2004-2008.

Assata Shakur, once also known as JoAnne Deborah Chesimard, was the head of the Black Liberation Army. In 1977, she was convicted of first-degree murder in the killing of a New Jersey state trooper. Her legacy also includes numerous bank robberies, kidnappings, and armed robbery charges, most of which she walked away from scot-free until the murder conviction. She escaped the New Jersey Corrections Institute for Women and fled to Cuba, where then-President Fidel Castro granted her asylum in 1984.

“Epic” is how a lengthy article in the Wall Street Journal last week described the current investment in AI. In today’s dollars, it dwarfs the investment in the railways in the 1800s. It dwarfs the investment in electrifying America in the early 1900s. It dwarfs the investment in the interstate highway system in the mid-1900s. It dwarfs the investments in the internet at the end of the last century. So, went the gist of the Journal’s article, it must all be an investment bubble – right? – that will come crashing down the way Pets.com and other internet stocks did.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced Sunday that he is dropping his third-party bid for re-election, narrowing the field for November’s election. “Despite all we’ve achieved, I cannot continue my re-election campaign,” Adams said in a video posted to X. “The constant media speculation about my future and the campaign finance board’s decision to withhold millions of dollars have undermined my ability to raise the funds needed for a serious campaign.” In a nearly nine-minute video, Adams — who enjoyed strong ratings from New Yorkers early in his term but saw his standing plummet after being indicted on federal corruption charges

A gunman was "down" after setting a fire and shooting multiple people at a Michigan church where hundreds were attending service on Sunday, authorities said. The active shooter situation unfolded just before 10:30 a.m. local time at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, the Grand Blanc Township Police Department said in a post on social media. "There are multiple victims and the shooter is down," police said. "There is NO threat to the public at this time. The church is actively on fire."

Marjorie Taylor Greene has come out swinging at the White House over the Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case. The rift between the MAGA firebrand and White House deepened after a Trump official apparently told her that her support of bipartisan legislation ordering the release of the so-called Epstein files would be viewed as a “very hostile act.” by Greene is one of four Republicans, alongside Reps. Thomas Massie, Nancy Mace and Lauren Boebert to have signed on to a discharge petition to force the release of files related to Epstein. If a discharge petition receives the signature of a majority of members, they can

Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene declared that people should remember she is “not suicidal” should something happen to her in the wake of her support of a petition for the release of the Epstein files. The conservative firebrand took to X on Saturday to dispel any notion that she would take her own life as she reiterated her desire to expose the “Epstein rape and pedophile network.” “I am not suicidal and one of the happiest healthiest people you will meet,” the Georgia Republican wrote on X. “With that said, if something happens to me, I ask you all to find out which foreign government or powerful people would take heinous actions

Six to eight victims have been reported in a mass shooting at a Church of Latter Day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, and the church is on fire, authorities said Sunday. In a Facebook post, the Grand Blanc Township Police Department said there is “NO threat to the public at this time” and that “the church is actively on fire.” Fox 2 Detroit reported between six and eight victims. Authorities directed people on site to a reunification pavilion to the north and said offsite reunification is at the Trillium theater at Holly and McCandlish.

How does America survive when its citizens belong to two divided camps that believe fundamentally incompatible things? Over the last century, there has been a trend to establish “truth and reconciliation commissions” in countries emerging from periods of political terrorism, totalitarianism, or civil war. The idea is to acknowledge the crimes and atrocities that past governments officially sanctioned and to recognize the harms inflicted upon their victims. As is often the case when governments “disappear” citizens or throw them in gulags for their politically incorrect thoughts, it is the not knowing that haunts society. Survivors bereft of answers are left with inconsolable anguish.

Protesters gathered Friday afternoon to oppose the recent arrest of Ian Roberts, an alleged illegal alien working as a high-ranking school official in Des Moines, Iowa. Earlier that day, Roberts had evaded arrest from immigration officers; he was superintendent of the Des Moines Public Schools system, according to KCCI-TV in Iowa. After catching him, Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Roberts possessed an illegally-owned pistol, which he carried in a school-issued car. He also reportedly had $3,000 cash and a fixed-blade hunting knife. Upon news of his arrest, leftists on social media called for an emergency protest, KCCI-TV reported Saturday.

Silver-spoon Democratic NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is a longtime Airbnb foe who pushed for the “the abolition of private property” — yet his filthy-rich parents have rented their posh Ugandan compound on the online site for nearly a decade, The Post has learned. The five-bedroom, four-bathroom villa owned by Columbia University Professor Mahmood Mamdani and Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Mira Nair offers breathtaking views of Lake Victoria and has monkeys traipsing through its lush two acres, according an Airbnb listing active for the last eight years. The far-from-proletariat estate is a far cry from the everyday Joe their socialist son attempts to portray on the campaign trail

The Senate Democrats’ campaign arm is planning a two-day getaway at a five-star resort in the heart of California’s wine country in early October — at the same time the country may be in the midst of a government shutdown — according to an invitation obtained by Politico’s “Playbook.” The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) is hosting its Napa Retreat from Oct. 13-14 at Hotel Yountville in Napa County, Politico reported Saturday. Democratic New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, who has chaired the DSCC since January, circulated an invitation to the event which lists her, Democratic Maryland Sen. Angela Alsobrooks and other unidentified “[m]embers of the Democratic Caucus” as attendees,

One of the big news stories yesterday was the arrest of the Des Moines, Iowa, superintendent who was overseeing the state’s largest school system, and drawing a substantial taxpayer-funded salary, even though a deportation order was out for him, and he is in the country illegally. Guess who hired him? Turns out the chair of the Des Moines school board Jackie Norris, who recently launched her campaign for United States Senate, is a former chief of staff for Michelle Obama. And she thought it would be a fabulous idea to have an illegal alien take a taxpayer-funded job and have the power to influence tens of thousands of children’s education.

In the matter of James Brien Comey Jr., how finds the court? I do not mean a court of law. I mean the tribunal of history. Granted, we will be hearing from a Virginia court of law about JBC quite soon. On Thursday, Comey became the first former FBI director in history to be indicted by a grand jury for a felony. The charges? Lying to Congress and obstructing justice. (For the legal eagles among you, the statutes in question are USC 18 §1001 and USC 18 §1505.)

A 24-year-old illegal immigrant from Venezuela who posed as a teenager in Toledo, Ohio, now faces decades in prison after admitting to a scheme that lasted more than a year. Anthony Emmanuel Labrador Sierra pleaded guilty this past week to multiple charges after forging immigration documents and claiming to be a 16-year-old student at Perrysburg High School in January 2024, the New York Post reported. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Ohio, Sierra, who crossed the border in 2019 and was only permitted to stay until March 2020 by the Biden administration, also illegally purchased a firearm using falsified documents.

Zohran Mamdani’s political party, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), mourned Assata Shakur, one of the FBI’s former most wanted terrorists, who was convicted of murdering a New Jersey state trooper in 1973 before fleeing to Cuba years later. In a social media post Saturday, the DSA said the "American state brutally oppressed" Shakur and her fellow Black Panther Party members. "Rest in Power, Assata Shakur," wrote the socialist group, whose best-known members are Mamdani and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.). The DSA has taken credit for powering Mamdani's victory in the New York City mayoral Democratic primary. Shakur was convicted in 1973 for the murder of New Jersey state trooper

Chicago taxpayers could be on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars for the costly Obama Presidential Center after new tax filings show the Obama Foundation has only deposited $1 million into its promised $470 million reserve fund. That’s the conclusion of an in-depth report by Fox News as it looked at what it described as a “sweetheart deal” to create the reserve fund “to spare taxpayers should the project ever go belly up.” The center will serve as Obama’s presidential library. According to the report: Under its agreement with the city, the [Obama] foundation was required to create the fund, known as an endowment, to take control of a sprawling 19.3-acre section

One of President Trump's most valuable cabinet members, Marco Rubio, who wears both the Secretary of State cap, and the National Security Advisor cap, gets called on to perform a lot of duties. One of them is the equivalent of barroom bouncer. At the United Nations, he threw out the president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro from the U.S. premises. (X) That was after a string of leftwing buffooneries and outrages. Two days ago, it was buffooneries: (X) It should be noted that this was the assessment of Colombians who also believed he had not just been drinking but snorting cocaine. It ought to be compared and contrasted with the speech delivered

It occurred to me watching Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point memorial event that I was witnessing something I had not seen in my long lifetime — a country-wide spiritual revival. I don’t know the overseas watching stats but for America, this had to strike terror into the (alleged) hearts of leftists. What I felt go through me as the “He is Holy” song was sung by almost 100,000 people who raised their arms toward heaven, it was clear that a bridge was crossed. Christians, and those of no faith or other faiths, could either see, suspect, or feel the movement of the Holy Spirit, but more to the point,...

In the bad old days of 2020, a number of FBI agents participated in George Floyd demonstrations and knelt in deference to that supposed martyr: Some agents who engaged in such conduct were reassigned (to what?) last spring, but now as many as 20 FBI agents have been fired: The FBI has fired agents who were photographed kneeling during a racial justice protest in Washington that followed the 2020 death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers, three people familiar with the matter said Friday. The bureau last spring had reassigned the agents but has since fired them, said the people, who insisted on anonymity to discuss personnel matters

To my mind the two biggest stories of the week for their domestic impact are Senator Chuck Schumer’s threatened government shutdown and the indictment of former FBI head James Comey. Neither of them bodes well for the Democrats, whose favorability ratings are already scraping bottom. Both revolve around the magic date September 30, that is, this Tuesday. If the Congress does not pass a continuing resolution this Tuesday, the government will shut down. Schumer insists that he won’t vote for a stopgap bill, something centrists in his party like Senator Jeanne Shaheen are seeking. Schumer, along with Congressman Hakeem Jeffries,

Numerous shots were fired from a passing boat into a crowded dockside North Carolina restaurant on Saturday night in a shooting that killed three people and left some eight injured. Officials said the unidentified boater pulled up to the American Fish Company restaurant in Southport Yacht Basin and opened fire into the crowd of unsuspecting diners at around 9:30 p.m. The boater then took off up the Intracoastal Waterway before a person matching the shooter’s description was spotted loading the vessel at a marina on Oak Island, approximately 5 miles west of the scene, at around 10 p.m., according to Southport city officials.

Socialist ‘Squad’ Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) routinely rails about congressional colleagues trading stocks — yet nearly one in four of her progressive comrades in Congress are wolves of Wall Street, a Post analysis found. As many as 24 of the lawmakers in the Congressional Progressive Caucus have enviable portfolios, annual disclosures filed with the Clerk of the House of Representatives show. The top trader, Morgan McGarvey (D-KY), one of the caucus’ vice-chairs, brought in a staggering 106% return on his stock portfolio in 2024, surpassing the 71% return of Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) — whose trading is so infamous a proposed bill to curb Congressional trading was called the Pelosi Act.

Understandably, after the violent attack against a Dallas ICE field office that left one detainee dead and two injured when a deranged gunman reportedly targeted immigration enforcement agents, the Trump administration is at wits' end with the incendiary rhetoric used by Democrats. Accordingly, the Trump White House is already taking action, beefing up security at ICE locations across the country, with President Trump also authorizing troop deployment to the leftist hotbed of Portland, Oregon, after months of clashes between anti-ICE agitators and law enforcement at the city's ICE detention facility. "I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland,

Well, I predicted a Friday ruling from the Supreme Court — it's just that I predicted it in the case involving Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook. Instead, we got a ruling from the high court on the USAID funding case. (Which isn't to say we won't also get one on Cook's case — there's still time left in the day.) Once again, the court handed the Trump administration a win, this time by formally granting the administration's application for a stay of D.C. District Judge Amir Ali's September 3rd preliminary injunction, which blocked the Trump administration from withholding previously appropriated USAID funding.
