FBI missed ‘basic step’ when gathering intel in the lead-up to Jan. 6, DOJ watchdog finds

Washington According to a long-awaited Justice Department inspector general report issued Thursday, the FBI did not take the "basic step" of gathering intelligence from its field offices prior to the attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. According to the inspector general's office, FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate told investigators that the absence of a canvas was a "basic step that was missed" and that he would have expected it to have happened. The FBI "recognized the potential for violence" and took "significant and appropriate steps" despite having "only a supporting role in preparing for and responding to" the events of January 6, according to the inspector general. Additionally, the report contains information that would most likely bolster the "fedsurrection" narrative th...

80-year-old woman died 1 month after Sleep Number Bed trapped her against a wall for 2 days, lawsuit claims

According to a recent complaint, an 80-year-old woman passed away a month after her Sleep Number Bed unexpectedly moved and imprisoned her against a wall for two days last year. According to a complaint filed on Tuesday by her daughter, Angela Moan, Rosalind Walker became imprisoned on March 1, 2023, when her Sleep Number Bed, which had its adjustable base at a higher position, suddenly descended and trapped her between the bed and the wall of her bedroom. According to the lawsuit, Walker was trapped and unable to release herself when the bed abruptly dropped with such force. She stayed trapped in that position in her Godfrey, Illinois, bedroom until emergency responders eventually freed her on March 3, 2023. According to the complaint, she was brought home on hospice after being taken to ...

Trump says it will be ‘hard’ to bring down grocery prices, pins hopes on lower energy costs and better supply chains

Despite making lowering grocery prices a central platform of his campaign, President-elect Donald Trump is admitting that it might be challenging. But in an interview with Time magazine, which named him 2024's Person of the Year, Trump stated that he still thinks supply chain improvements and cheaper energy prices will make it possible. When asked if he believes his presidency will be a "failure" if grocery costs don't decline, Trump said it won't, while criticizing the present administration for its handling of inflation, which first caused food prices to rise. "They got them up, you see. I want to take them down. Once something is up, it's difficult to take it down. In the interview that was released on Thursday, he stated, "You know, it's very hard." However, I believe they will. That e...

How to take care of your nails as you age, according to dermatologists

Since aging is a natural part of life, taking care of aging nails is just as vital as finding remedies for facial and neck wrinkles and fine lines. The building elements of strong, robust nails, collagen and keratin, are naturally produced less by our bodies as we age, according to board-certified dermatologist Dr. Hannah Kopelman of New York. Brittleness, cracking, reduced circulation, and a notably slower development rate are all symptoms of aging nails.

Missing American Travis Timmerman’s recovery in Syria a ‘Christmas miracle,’ loved ones say

Following about seven months without communication, the Missouri man's family and friends celebrated his surprising rescue Thursday as a "Christmas miracle" after he was imprisoned in Syria after he claimed to have entered the country on a "pilgrimage" to Damascus. "We're very blessed that he is safe, that he is good, that he is protected," Pixie Rogers said of her brother, Travis Timmerman. "And I saw on the news that he got fed." The 29-year-old Timmerman, who at first merely called himself "Travis," was first spotted in a video that surfaced overnight, which caused some people to mistake him for 43-year-old missing American journalist Austin Tice. Despite not knowing he was in Syria, Timmerman's family claimed he had also gone missing. Rogers remarked, "I'm not sure what his thinking wa...

Dick Van Dyke recalls escaping raging Franklin Fire in Malibu

MALIBU, California. Dick Van Dyke, a beloved actor, told how his astute neighbors helped him escape the fast-moving Franklin Fire that was burning through Malibu this week. The movie icon, who turns 99 on Friday, remembered witnessing the fire spread across a hill close to his house this week. "I wasn't ready," he told NBC News, despite having already experienced four wildfires. I made a mistake this time. My pool is connected to a fire hose, which emits water in a 70-foot stream. I wasn't prepared, to be sure. I left. It was knotted, and as I lay on the ground attempting to untangle this fire hose, the fire is spreading across the hill. I simply exhausted me. He recounted, "I realized I was crawling to get out, and I forgot how old I am." "You could see it coming from over the hill," he...
