Anthony Rubio, son of Florida Senator Marco Rubio (R) and running back for the Florida Gators, scored his first touchdown in the Gasparilla Bowl against Tulane on Friday night.

The elder Rubio paid tribute to his son in a post on X.

“Happy my son scored,” Florida senator wrote on X. “But what I am truly proud of is the joy from his teammates and that he gave all the glory to God.”

Anthony Rubio scored the Gators final touchdown in their 33-8 rout of Tulane. Following the game, Rubio, a walk-on redshirt freshman, told ESPN about the “insane” reaction from his teammates.

“I want to thank God for that. It wouldn’t have happened but for Him,” Rubio said. “That was a great experience.”

President-Elect Donald Trump has tapped Marco Rubio to be Secretary of State, and the confirmation process will begin early next year.

Friendly Fire: Navy Shoots Down One of Our F-18s During Houthi Strikes
December 22, 2024
Two U.S. Navy pilots were shot down Sunday over the Red Sea in what appeared to be “friendly fire”, the U.S. military said. The pilots were found alive after they ejected from their aircraft, with one suffering minor injuries. The incident demonstrates the pervasive dangers in the Red Sea corridor amid ongoing attacks on shipping by the Iranian-backed Houthis, even as U.S. and European military coalitions patrol the area. The U.S. military had conducted airstrikes targeting Yemen’s Houthi rebels at the time, but U.S. Central Command did not elaborate on what their mission was. Read the full article here […]
Visualizing $102 Trillion Of Global Debt In 2024
December 22, 2024
In 2024, global public debt is forecast to reach $102 trillion, with the U.S. and China largely contributing to rising levels of debt. This marks a $5 trillion increase since 2023 alone. Looking ahead, debt levels are projected to increase faster than previously expected as government policies fail to address debt risks amid aging populations and increasing healthcare costs. Going further, rising geopolitical tensions could lead to higher spending on defense, adding strain to government budgets. This graphic, via Visual Capitalist’s Dorothy Neufeld, shows government debt by country in 2024, based on data from the IMF’s October 2024 World Economic Outlook. Ranked: Government Debt by Country As the world’s largest economy, the U.S. debt pile continues to balloon, accounting for 34.6% of the world’s total government debt. Overall, net interest payments on the national debt soared to $892 billion in the 2024 fiscal year. By 2034, these costs are forecast to reach $1.7 trillion, with total net interest costs amounting to $12.9 trillion over the next decade. A rising mountain of debt and higher interest rates are among the primary factors driving up net interest costs. Below, we… Read the full article here […]

Trump Names ‘The Apprentice’ Producer as Special Envoy to the United Kingdom
December 22, 2024
Burnett ‘will work to enhance diplomatic relations, focusing on areas of mutual interest, including trade … and cultural exchanges,’ Trump said. Award-winning British television producer Mark Burnett has been named by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as U.S. Special Envoy to the United Kingdom in the second Trump administration. “With a distinguished career in television production and business, Mark brings a unique blend of diplomatic acumen and international recognition to this important role,” Trump said in a Saturday Truth Social post about the producer he formerly worked with on “The Apprentice,” which first aired on NBC in 2004. Trump severed ties with NBC in 2015 when he launched his first bid for the White House. “Mark will work to enhance diplomatic relations, focusing on areas of mutual interest, including trade, investment opportunities, and cultural exchanges. Congratulations Mark!” Trump said. The United Kingdom has long enjoyed “special relationship” status with the United States and is considered one of Washington’s strongest global allies. Burnett is expected to join Trump’s nominee for U.S. ambassador to Britain, billionaire investment… […]
Sentiment Speaks: Why Do We Rely On News
December 22, 2024
Well, that was quite the eventful week. We had a Fed announcement, and all the market geniuses were quick to attribute the cause of the 3% decline to the Fed announcement. However, this is nothing more than a foolish and very superficial perspective, which evidences their lack of true understanding of how our markets work. Read the full article here […]
Missing Texas Rep. Kay Granger found in memory care unit: report
December 22, 2024
An elderly Texas member of Congress who has been missing from the Capitol for six months has been found in a nursing home that specializes in memory care, according to a report. Longtime Republican Rep. Kay Granger, 81, has not cast a vote in Washington D.C. since July — despite the GOP’s super-slim majority in the chamber. Her prolonged absence sparked concern among constituents in Texas’ 12th Congressional District, which is in the Dallas-Forth Worth metro area. Granger did not run for reelection in November, but her disappearance is especially significant given the tiny majority Republicans hold in the House — and the massive votes that are taking place, including the government spending bill — in the waning days of her tenure. After calls to Granger’s offices were sent to voicemail, and her constituency office was found empty, a reporter at The Dallas Express received a tip that she had been staying at a memory care facility after being found lost and confused while wandering through her neighborhood. Rep. Kay Granger (R-Texas) has not voted in Washington in six months. CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images Dallas Express… Read the full article here […]

I moved next to Chernobyl’s deadly exclusion zone to escape Putin’s troops…locals mock my plan to make it a tourist trap
December 22, 2024
WHEN maverick Ukrainian entrepreneur Vadym Minziuk’s life was destroyed in the 2014 Russian invasion he had no choice but to flee. He moved his family to the only place he could afford to start again – a one-horse town in the Chernobyl exclusion zone. Vadym Minziuk and his family moved to Dytyatky, in the Donbas region of UkraineCredit: Sky UK Limited © 7 A Ferris wheel stands still in the abandoned city of PripyatCredit: Getty Despite the fact that the town of Dytyatky was ravaged by the fallout from the 1986 nuclear disaster and still has high levels of radiation, Vadym had big dreams of transforming its fortunes and turning it into one of Ukraine’s top tourist destinations. Unfortunately for Vadym his big-city ways and newfangled ideas set him at odds with the townsfolk, led by the formidable Mayor Svitlana. But with a full-scale Russian invasion threatening the nation, a new film tells how Vadym and his neighbours had to unite to survive. Back in Donbas, in the East of the country, Vadym and his family had a large home, two apartments, a second house and a factory but it was all destroyed in one rocket strike. They had to start from scratch with nothing. “Leaving home is… Read the full article here […]
Okinawa people stage rally against sexual assaults by U.S. servicemen
December 22, 2024
Okinawa – Over 2,500 people staged a rally in the city of Okinawa on Sunday to protest sexual assaults on local girls by U.S. servicemen stationed in the prefecture of Okinawa. They adopted a resolution demanding that the Japanese and U.S. governments apologize and compensate the victims, provide information promptly when such incidents occur, and revise the Japan-U.S. status of forces agreement, which governs U.S. troops stationed in Japan. “Sexual violence that tramples on the dignity of women and children should never occur,” said Junko Iraha, chief of a local citizens’ group and a member of the rally’s organizing committee. Okinawa Gov. Denny Tamaki said, “I feel keenly that we need to be stricter and speak louder about the situation in which many residents of the prefecture are forced to co-exist with U.S. military bases amid anxiety.” Sorane Sakihama, a 22-year-old college student who spoke as a representative of young people, asked, “Do we have to be deprived of our youth because we were born in Okinawa and there are bases?” The rally was broadcast live to other venues in Okinawa including… Read the full article here […]
Music Maker, 88, Creates Unique Horn Section, With Moose Antler Bass Guitar and Cello
December 22, 2024
Eighty-eight-year-old Lorne Collie has been making musical instruments for more than three decades, creations that dazzle for their unique materials as much as their sound. There’s a hefty bass guitar and a cello made of moose antlers, a baseball bat violin, ukuleles made of cookie tins, and guitars fashioned from pitch forks, a shovel, and a rake. His personal favourites? A frying pan mandolin and a banjo made of a motorcycle tire rim, covered by stretched deerskin painted by his late wife. “When people wanted to buy them, I always said No,” Collie said from his home outside the tiny and remote Manitoba community of Hilbre, about 230 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg. “I wasn’t hurting for money, but what I was afraid of is that if I started selling them, I would be working myself to death to try to keep up to the orders.” Collie said he once turned down an offer of $35,000 for a moose antler electric guitar.
