A UFO at Red Rocks? Employees say disc-shaped object appeared in sky, then vanished

By Chris Eberhart | Fox News A dozen employees said they watched a "large, disc-shaped craft" hover above a Colorado concert venue and then vanish.  "What's even crazier is that as soon as we all started noticing it and stopped what we were doing to pay attention to it, the craft tipped at an angle and slowly started moving belly-first to the east," an employee reported to the National UFO Reporting Center about the June 5 sighting at the Red Rocks Ampitheatre in Morrison. "Then it started fading away until it was invisible. It didn't shoot off into the distance. It simply dissolved into the ether. We all watched it vanish." The "silent" hovering object was long – about the size of a "three-story office building" – with three levels of windows...

Trump’s abortion stance prompts pushback from Lindsey Graham, others rally behind former president

By Elizabeth Elkind , Julia Johnson  | FOX News A top Republican senator and Trump-endorser is among those criticizing the former president over his Monday announcement on abortion, in which he claimed restrictions on the procedure should be decided by individual states.  "I respectfully disagree with President Trump’s statement that abortion is a states’ rights issue," Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in a statement on Monday morning.  Trump made his much-anticipated announcement in a video the same day, stating his belief that the states should legislate their own limitations on abortion rather than the federal government.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS

Giordano: America’s woke education is fueling the mental health crisis

By Nicholas Giordano | FOX News According to a new Gallup poll, "happiness" is plummeting in America, adding to the mounting evidence that the U.S. has a mental health crisis on its hands. It is particularly alarming that these bleak findings include children, teens and young adults – demographics that have traditionally enjoyed relatively carefree lives and positive outlooks as they face a lifetime of promises.  But the data is sobering: suicide ranks as the second leading cause of death among children ages 10-14 and young adults ages 20-34. Furthermore, 55% of young adults under the age of 30 suffer from anxiety, and 47% are depressed and/or hopeless. Sadly, these statistics do not surprise me.  As a college professor, not only h...
