At least 70 Palestinians have been killed and more than 200 wounded in Israel’s latest assault on the Khan Younis area in southern Gaza as Palestinians fleeing Israeli tank shelling and air strikes have described the situation as “doomsday”. “Due to the Israeli occupation’s attacks and massacres in Khan Yunis governorate from the early hours of this morning until now, 70 people have been martyred and more than 200 wounded,” Gaza’s Ministry of Health said in a statement on Monday, adding that the dead included women and children.

Screenshot: RNC Research X Democrat Senator Chris Coons wept openly on national television while discussing news that President Joe Biden had dropped his re-election campaign. Coons, who represents Delaware, couldn’t contain his emotions while providing analysis for CBS News Sunday afternoon. And it’s just about the funniest thing you’ve ever seen. “He’s grounded in his faith, in his family, and in our state,” he said, glancing off-screen and blinking frequently to fight the oncoming floodgates. “Excuse me. I’m sorry,” he continued, clearly fighting back tears and losing the battle. “This was a very difficult decision. And one that I think…
PHOTO USA Today Sports Images No team has successfully defended their World Series championship since the New York Yankees won three straight titles from 1998 to 2000. Since then, the 2009 Phillies are the only team to reach the World Series a year after winning it all, but the Phillies fell to the Yankees in that year’s Fall Classic.With that in mind, the Texas Rangers faced long odds of running it back before the season even started. And, at times, the Rangers have appeared to be a team that is still in the midst of a World Series hangover after winning the…

Apple recently approved a new emulator app called UTM SE that enables your iPhone or iPad (or Vision Pro!) to masquerade as PC hardware and run honest-to-goodness computer desktop operating systems. Some of you asked in the comments section of my last story how it runs — a fair question that I couldn’t answer at the time. But now that I’ve tried it a little, I have answers, and I can say this much: it’s better than I expected, but I wouldn’t count on it for too much.That’s because it doesn’t use a just-in-time (JIT) compiler, which translates software into…
Early in my career, I worked on Capitol Hill as a speechwriter for then-Senate majority leader Harry Reid. My colleagues and I would marvel at Reid’s stubborn insistence on zigging when others zagged. Countless times, when the right decision seemed obvious to us, he would do precisely the opposite. On one infamous occasion, I huddled with him in the Senate barbershop before he was slated to give a speech at a ceremony to open the new Capitol Visitors’ Center. While he was getting a haircut, I walked him through the (probably boring) remarks I had drafted for him. He let me…

The last few weeks sharply remind us of the old adage – "Man Plans, and God Laughs." In less than 30 days, the American political world has been upended by a series of shocking events most people are still trying to fully comprehend. From a remarkably disastrous debate for President Joe Biden against former president Donald Trump, to the attempted assassination of Trump a short 16 days later, then two days after that the start of a well-organized and produced Republican convention with an injured but unbowed Trump, to the withdrawal of Biden as the Democratic Party’s nominee for president,…

Reports of at least 16 dead with casualties pouring into hospital.Israel’s military has launched artillery and air strikes on eastern Khan Younis shortly after demanding residents leave what it had previously designated a humanitarian zone. The barrage of attacks early on Monday came less than an hour after the evacuation order. At least 30 people have been killed, according to health officials in Gaza. The enclave’s population, most of which has been displaced and is in desperate need of shelter and food, has found it increasingly difficult to find security as they have been pushed into shrinking “safe zones” by…
