On Monday, Butte County Sheriff Kory L. Honea announced that the death toll for the latest wildfires raging in California has now reached 42 — making it the deadliest wildfire in California history.

On Saturday, President Trump was expected to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and Memorial, some 60 miles outside of Paris. Once there, he was meant to observe a moment of silence in honor of the Americans that fought and died for their country in a gesture of respect that would be mirrored by France’s Emmanuel […]

Russia’s only aircraft carrier, the long-troubled Admiral Kuznetsov, last saw action in 2016 in support of Pro-Assad forces in Syria.

When it’s rotation was over, the Admiral skulked […]
