MoreNEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Rescuers in Italy reported Monday that at least a dozen skiers, climbers and hikers died over the past week in a record-setting tragedy in the country’s mountainous terrain.While authorities said 11 of the 12 victims were killed in avalanches triggered by exceptionally unstable conditions on ungroomed backcountry slopes, The Associated Press reported a total of 13 deaths.The incidents occurred just as the Winter Olympics began in the region last Friday. Authorities stressed that the game sites — located in Lombardy on the Swiss border, Cortina d’Ampezzo in Veneto, and Val di Fiemme in Trentino — remain safe, well-maintained and closely monitored. Italy’s specialist mountain-rescue organization revealed that the fatal disasters were caused by weak layers of fresh snow, unstable enough that the passage of a single person could trigger an avalanche.POWER OUTAGE HALTS MILAN CORTINA OLYMPICS CURLING COMPETITION MOMENTS AFTER MATCHES BEGIN The main issue is caused by “persistent weak layers in the snowy cloak, often covered by fresh snow or wind: conditions that make detachments unpredictable and easily triggered even by the passing of a single skier or alpinist,” the National Alpine and Speleological Rescue Corps said. “The dangerous points are many…

Susan Collins is well aware of the tough path ahead as she officially kicks off her 2026 re-election campaign in blue-leaning Maine.Collins is the top target for Senate Democrats as they try to win back the chamber’s majority in November’s midterm elections.”Chuck Schumer has made me once again — this is the third time he’s done this — his number one target,” Collins said in an interview with Fox News Digital soon after she announced her re-election bid, as she pointed to the longtime top Democrat in the Senate.Collins took to social media a couple of hours earlier to declare, “GOOD NEWS! I am ALL-IN for 2026.”LONGTIME REPUBLICAN SENATOR MAKES A MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT Democrats have long targeted the 73-year-old Collins, who was first elected to the Senate three decades ago, but keep coming up short.”I will be outspent as I was in 2020, but fortunately, Maine people are famously independent. They look at the individual candidates, and they don’t just necessarily vote a party line,” the senator said.Collins was one of the Senate Republicans who voted to convict after the House impeached President Donald Trump in 2021, following the Jan.…
As the Chinese People’s Liberation Army edges toward its goal of invading Taiwan by 2027, experts argue that Washington must reexamine a long-standing U.S.-Japan blueprint that aims to shift nearly 10,000 Marines away from Okinawa.The Defense Policy Review Initiative (DPRI) — intended to make the U.S. military presence less burdensome for the island’s residents — will instead dangerously weaken deterrence against Beijing, according to a report for the Atlantic Council from Lt. Col. Caleb Eames, a senior Marine Corps fellow, and Amy Cowley, an assistant director at the council’s Forward Defense program.The time for the U.S. to adjust its posture is now, they write. The Pentagon has shown a willingness to dismantle entrenched programs and the Trump administration’s tariff policies have created leverage to agree to new terms with the Japanese government.“Washington has a window of opportunity to rework old DPRI agreements in a new, substantial way,” Eames and Cowley argue.Under the plan as it stands, the U.S. and Japan agreed to move 5,000 Marines and 1,300 dependents from Okinawa to Guam; 2,700 Marines and 2,000 dependents to Hawaii; 1,300 Marines to Australia; and 800 Marines to locations in the continental U.S. The first tranche of 100 troops, however, only…

Kaley Cuoco is opening up about experiencing a beauty mishap during her time starring on “The Big Bang Theory.”During an appearance on the “Not Skinny But No Fat” podcast, the 40-year-old actress, who played Penny on the hit sitcom that ran from 2007 to 2019, recalled getting Botox injections for the first time before realizing too late how it would impact her ability to act on camera. “I did my forehead and all this stuff, and I was so excited,” Cuoco remembered. Cuoco went on to say that she underwent the cosmetic procedure days before filming “a scene where I have to like really do this thing with my face.”‘BIG BANG THEORY’ STAR KALEY CUOCO SHUTS DOWN PARENTING CRITICS”I could not move [it],” she admitted. “The fact that no one said anything — they probably were thinking it — I couldn’t believe how bad it looked.

Sam Darnold just WON the Super Bowl…and LOST $71k because it was in California Watch as Boomer Esiason explains why the players should block any future Super Bowls in California… Here’s SchiffSovereign’s James Hickman to explain the farce… Yesterday, the Seattle Seahawks beat the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. From a financial perspective, each Seahawks player will take home $178,000—payment for that particular game. Now, given that the Super Bowl was played in California—and the players earned money playing in the game— it’s reasonable for the state of California to tax that specific income. But that’s not the way California looks at it. Instead, the state will go back in time, all the way to the start of the NFL season in September, and take their ‘fair share’ of the players’ ENTIRE salaries over the entire season. This is what’s known as the state’s “jock tax,” in which they tax non-resident professional athletes based on the number of “duty days” they spend in the state—traveling, practicing, attending meetings, or playing in a game. Both teams arrived in California last Sunday, so each player will log…

MoreFollowing successful field exercises simulating defense against drone incursions, the U.S. Army’s Northern Command has formed an operational team to rapidly counter drone threats to military bases within the United States. “The validation and certification of our Counter-small UAS fly-away kit is an important step in being able to support installation commanders within the United States as they defend against drone incursions,” Gen. Gregory Guillot, North American Aerospace Defense Command and USNORTHCOM commander, said in a release. “Moving beyond an advisory role, we now have a team with equipment that is able to rapidly deploy and provide active and passive detection capabilities and low-collateral non-kinetic and low-kinetic defeat options in one package.”The Army certified the unit of 11 soldiers as an operational team following high-pressure field tests in Florida and North Dakota, which saw soldiers with various specialized backgrounds from USNORTHCOM and 21st Space Base Delta at Peterson Space Force Base practice defending domestic military sites using NORTHCOM’s Counter-small UAS fly-away kit.The kit, produced by Anduril, forms an all-round web of sensors and effectors to detect, target and disable intrusive small drones. With overlapping layers of technology, the system forms a shield to detect and track drones from all directions.…

DANVILLE, Calif. — At age 106, Alice Darrow can clearly recall her days as a nurse during World War II, part of a pioneering group that dodged bullets as they hauled packs full of medical supplies and treated the burns and gunshot wounds of troops.Some nurses were killed by enemy fire. Others spent years as prisoners of war. Most returned home to quiet lives, receiving little recognition.Darrow sat with patients, even after-hours. One of them had arrived at her hospital on California’s Mare Island with a bullet lodged in his heart. He was not expected to survive surgery, yet he would change her life.“To them, you’re everything because you’re taking care of them,” she said, sitting at her home in the San Francisco Bay Area town of Danville.RELATEDEighty years after the war ended, a coalition of retired military nurses and others is campaigning to award one of the nation’s highest civilian honors, the Congressional Gold Medal, to all nurses who served in WWII. Other groups, such as the Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII and the real-life Rosie the Riveters, have already received the honor.“The general public doesn’t often recognize, I think, the contribution that the nurses have made in…
The government shutdown, which angered democrats and republicans both from the beginning, is now over, and one side is notably more angry than the other. The shutdown was able to end because democrats conceded by dropping an immediate extension of Affordable Care Act subsidies in exchange for a promised future Senate vote. In a late-night Sunday session that broke a weeks-long political stalemate, the United States Senate advanced a bipartisan agreement aimed at ending a 40-day government shutdown. The deal, which was negotiated by a coalition of Democrats and Republican leaders, funds key government departments and provides back pay for hundreds of thousands of federal workers, according to a report by Natural News. However, the compromise came at a significant cost for Democrats, who abandoned a core demand related to healthcare subsidies to secure the votes needed for passage, triggering intense internal party backlash and leaving the bill’s fate in the House uncertain. The healthcare subsidies appear to be the most contentious element of the negotiations. This involves the soon-to-expire subsidies for the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Allowing these subsidies to lapse is projected to cause health insurance premiums to double for millions of Americans. Initially, Democratic leadership insisted…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! New York Gov. Kathy Hochul appeared to cast doubt on New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s vision for free buses.Hochul, speaking at the Somos Conference in Puerto Rico, said, “We’re spending a lot of money, so I cannot set forth a plan right now that takes money out of a system that relies on the fares of the buses and the subways,” according to the New York Post.The newspaper said Hochul made the remark in reference to funds the state has provided to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority — which runs New York City’s bus system — for major projects.”But can we find a path to make it more affordable for people who need help?
