Brian Krassenstein, one of two brothers who rose to viral fame via facile, curt responses to President Donald Trump's tweets, is under fire after a post suggesting the president needs to be put "to sleep."

To call the latest Jeffrey Epstein file dump a dud is a bit of an insult to duds. The makers of "Waterworld" and "Ishtar" probably sent the D.C. lawmakers who pushed for it a bouquet of flowers along with their condolences. Meanwhile, the people behind "E.T.: The Video Game" for...

President Donald Trump had the room laughing when he took a phone call on Christmas Eve from a child who told the president he did not want coal for Christmas. That day the White House's official Rapid Response 47 account on X posted a video of Trump participating in the...

The birthplace of Jesus saw a rebirth of public celebration on Christmas Day after two years of war. Since the savage Hamas terrorist attack on Israel in 2023 sparked relentless fighting in the Gaza Strip, the city of Bethlehem roughly 50 miles inland has been more of an armed camp...

Politico is sounding the alarm about Christmas. On the day before one of Christianity's holiest celebrations, the Beltway-based news outlet decided Americans needed to know -- as its cutting-edge journalism reveals -- that this holiday is one celebrated by Christians, heralding it as the cornerstone of the ideals they look...

Christmas is not a time of remembrance and happiness for everyone. Tragically, some people still suffered immensely from Trump Derangement Syndrome while the rest of us enjoyed time with our families and in our churches, celebrating the birth of our lord and savior Jesus Christ. Just as children around the...

The true meaning of Christmas is found in the hearts of those who genuinely believe. It can't be found under a tree or in a department store. The secret of Christmas is no secret. For far too many, Christmas is disconnected from its beginning in Bethlehem, instead centering on a...

One of the most commonly misattributed quotes in history is the claim that Albert Einstein supposedly coined, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting different results." But just because there's no credible evidence Einstein actually said this doesn't make it untrue. And...

Professional sports are simply never that serious of a matter. An utterly senseless tragedy befell a Florida family just days before Christmas, during the lopsided "Monday Night Football" tilt that saw the San Francisco 49ers soundly beat the Indianapolis Colts 48-27. That game -- not an especially competitive one by...

An otherwise innocuous trip to a McDonald's drive-thru has turned into a Christmas tragedy for a family in Nebraska. A grandfather from Grand Island, Nebraska, died after a "freak accident" in the drive-thru that even saw a restaurant employee get hurt while trying to help him. Michael Dickinson, 69, died...

A number of groups have found themselves the target of President Donald Trump's ire -- and his supporters' ire, as well -- over the years. Democrats, far-leftists, globalists, and the establishment media all immediately come to mind, but a new class of people has seemingly skyrocketed up that list during...

After the immigration issue, there is perhaps no other matter that President Donald Trump has more proudly pursued than being a president for peace. From having started no new wars in his first term, to working furiously to end several long-running conflicts in his second term, Trump has made clear...

There's a time-honored sports tradition of a team's best or highest-paid player lavishing his teammates with extravagant Christmas gifts. After all, in team sports, individual success is only possible with collective effort, so it's usually a chance for a team's standout player to thank his teammates. In the NFL, this...

Legendary Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu once said, "He who is humble shall remain whole." It's a simple formula: Being humble means being honest with yourself, and being honest with yourself ensures clarity when the chips are down. Failed presidential candidate (and mostly failed former vice president) Kamala Harris has made...

One of the most contentious topics in the zeitgeist -- and history, for that matter -- has to do with "transgender children." Supporters of the concept argue that it's okay to make irreversible medical decisions and lifelong medication dependencies for children to "affirm" their "gender identity." Critics counter that "transgender...

It's pretty clear that we now have ample evidence that fame, adulation, and celebrity absolutely corrupts scientific minds. From fake scientists like Bill Nye suddenly becoming anti-Republican homeland security experts, to swathes of British scientists thinking they can play God, it's a pretty consistent pattern. And Neil deGrasse Tyson might...

When the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks consummated a blockbuster trade that sent Slovenian wunderkind Luka Doncic from Texas to California in exchange for damaged goods in February, it was a universally reviled, mocked, and panned trade. (It also eventually got then-Mavs general manager Nico Harrison fired from his...

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer can get in front of as many cameras as he can, but that doesn't seem to be helping the beleaguered New York Democrat. According to a new poll from Gallup released Dec. 22, Schumer will end 2025 as Washington, D.C.'s least popular major politician, beating...

When you think of St. Nicholas, you probably think of a bearded man in a red coat in a sleigh delivering presents on Christmas Eve with his reindeer. St. Nicholas was indeed a real person in history, but his story is much more fascinating than the one we get every...
