Oil prices fluctuated on Friday, briefly spiking as much as 3% after Israel hit back at Iran in a retaliatory strike, further heightening tensions in the Middle East. Brent crude prices briefly reached above $90 per barrel after a US official told ABC News that Israel launched missile strikes against Iran late Thursday. The attack came after Iran rained down more than 300 drones and missiles toward the Jewish nation last Saturday — though nearly all were intercepted by Israel and its allies. Israel’s early morning retaliatory strike, however, appeared to be “limited,” according to a military source — though…

A newly discovered 98-foot-long dinosaur named after the Hindu god Shiva “The Destroyer” stomped around Argentina alongside other long-necked “megatitanosaurs” more than 90 million years ago, scientists reveal. Researchers described the humongous beast, called Bustingorrytitan shiva, late last year from fossils discovered in western Argentina. Now, they’ve worked with an artist to recreate the Cretaceous titanosaur, a stockier type of long-necked sauropod, in stunning images and videos.B. shiva is among the largest sauropods ever recorded, with an estimated weight of around 74 tons (67 metric tons), according to a study published Dec. 18, 2023, in the journal Acta Palaeontologica Polonica.

During his visit to a war memorial near his hometown in Pennsylvania, President Biden appeared to imply his uncle was eaten by cannibals after his plane was shot down during World War II.”He flew single-engine planes, reconnaissance flights over New Guinea. He had volunteered because someone couldn’t make it. He got shot down in an area where there were a lot of cannibals in New Guinea at the time,” President Biden said. “They never recovered his body.”On Thursday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre acknowledged that President Biden’s maternal uncle, Ambrose Finnegan, who he refers to as “Uncle Bosie,” did die in WWII when his plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean, but confirmed he was not eaten by cannibals, as Biden seemed to suggest on two separate occasions during his visit on Wednesday.When asked about his comments on Friday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed the President was having an “emotional moment” when he made his remarks.BIDEN’S FALSE CANNIBAL STORY DESCRIBED AS A SIMPLE ‘MISSTATEMENT,’ ‘OFF ON THE DETAILS’ BY THE MEDIA President Joe Biden speaks to the National Action Network Convention remotely from the South Court Auditorium of the White House, Friday, April 12, 2024, in Washington.

No, Blake Lively did not have four more children — but Taylor Swift did drop some names that are confusing fans. The biggest question surrounds the track “Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus” from The Tortured Poets Society: The Anthology, which dropped on Friday, April 19. Traditionally, Swift name-drops her famous friends in songs, and even — sometimes — reveals the names of their children. She famously used the names of Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ three daughters, James, Inez and Betty, in a three-song story on 2020’s Folklore. However, with “Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus,” it appears…
Here is another spot in the defensive backfield that is not exactly fully-stocked with proven talent. The leading man the past few years, Xavier McKinney, left for riches ($67 million) bestowed upon him by the Packers. McKinney played all 1,128 snaps on defense in 2023, meaning there is a whole bunch of playing time awaiting someone. Jason Pinnock returns at one starting spot and perhaps ballhawk Dane Belton is ready for a larger role. Veteran Jalen Mills was signed to a one-year deal and he should compete for work. GM Joe Schoen does not believe in spending big for a…

The internet is convinced that Travis Kelce is unbothered by girlfriend Taylor Swift’s song lyrics about her exes — and the reasoning is kind of hilarious. In case you hadn’t heard, Swift, 34, dropped The Tortured Poets Department on Friday, April 19. The standard version includes 16 songs — but that simply wasn’t enough, and Swift released a 31-song double album that appears to be about her 2023 splits from exes Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy. Since Swift is currently in what appears to be a much happier romance with Kelce, 34, fans have been musing about the NFL star’s…
Add Kelly Oubre versus celebrities as another matchup to watch during the Knicks-76ers first-round playoff series. The 76ers forward took a moment on Friday to chirp Madison Square Garden’s vaunted Celebrity Row before Game 1 at the arena on Saturday. “They’re gonna give celebrities those $100,000 [worth of] free tickets just to be there and not care about the game,” Oubre said. “That’s what they do.” Oubre does sort of have a point. Page Six reported in December that the Rangers denied model Emily Ratajkowski more complimentary tickets after she and fellow model Irina Shayk left the Knick’s 100-98 comeback win…
WASHINGTON — White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Friday that it would be inappropriate to poke fun at President Biden for falsely suggesting on two occasions earlier this week that his uncle, Ambrose Finnegan, was eaten by cannibals in New Guinea during World War II. Jean-Pierre made the scolding comment during a back-and-forth with Fox News reporter Peter Doocy during her regular briefing — while New Guinea residents expressed a mix of outrage and amusement at the 81-year-old president’s remarks. “Why is President Biden saying [Finnegan] was shot down — there is no evidence of that — and…
