Defense witnesses in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial told jurors the Massachusetts mother was desperate for help with her mental health months before she strangled her three young children, testimony that cuts to the heart of whether she was criminally responsible. Susan Clancy, Lindsay's former mother-in-law, took the stand Tuesday at Plymouth Superior Court and described a woman unraveling in plain sight. She told the jury Lindsay had reached out in November 2022, roughly two months before the killings, reporting insomnia, loss of appetite, deep anxiety, and sadness. Susan Clancy said she watched the decline accelerate through the holiday season and into January 2023, when Cora, Dawson, and Callan were found strangled in the family's…Open

Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville went on Fox News and dismissed the Democratic Socialists of America as irrelevant, calling their candidates "silly" and "a pack of fools", while offering a surprisingly warm assessment of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Carville made the remarks Monday on "Jesse Watters Primetime," where the host pressed him on whether the far-left wing of the Democratic Party posed a threat to its future. DSA-aligned candidates have been winning Democratic primaries in recent months, raising alarms among moderates and establishment figures about the party's ideological direction. Carville waved off the concern, and then, in the same breath, carved out an exception for the most prominent progressive in…Open

The FBI has determined that all three ransom notes tied to the suspected kidnapping of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie are not genuine, a finding that upends a central premise of the investigation and leaves her family without any verified communication from whoever took her. Nancy Guthrie, the mother of "Today" co-host Savannah Guthrie, vanished from her home in northern Tucson, Arizona, in the early hours of February 1. A masked intruder appeared on her front steps in video recovered from her Nest doorbell camera. Six months later, no suspect has been named, no arrest has been made, and her whereabouts remain unknown. The Pima County Sheriff's Department released two of the ransom notes publicly in July, hoping someone might recognize the…Open

Gov. Maura Healey signed a law making Massachusetts the tenth state to allow abortion up to birth, and a neonatologist says the prenatal tests used to justify late terminations are far less reliable than families are told. Dr. Robin Pierucci, a neonatologist and co-chair of the American College of Pediatricians' Pro-Life Council, told Fox News Digital that the new Massachusetts law raises grave medical and ethical questions, starting with the screening tools that drive many late-term abortion decisions. Prenatal imaging, she said, cannot reliably predict how severely a condition will affect a child after birth. Healey signed H. 5595, the Prioritizing Patient Access to Care Act, on Aug. 10, erasing the state's longstanding 24-week…Open

Oprah Winfrey publicly distanced herself from Dr. Phil McGraw and Dr. Mehmet Oz in a new magazine interview, declaring their post-show paths have "not one thing to do with me", a move critics say exposes her own partisan leanings. Winfrey addressed the growing backlash in comments published by Emmy Magazine, the Television Academy's flagship publication. She acknowledged that people "criticize me for Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz, because of their politics or their views," then drew a firm line between herself and the two men she helped make famous. Both have moved toward President Donald Trump's orbit in recent years, and Winfrey, who appeared on stage at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, appears eager to shed the association. …Open

Disney sued the Federal Communications Commission on Tuesday to halt an unprecedented early license renewal process for eight ABC-owned broadcast stations, a move the company calls retaliation for the network's editorial choices and a move the FCC calls a lawful probe into illegal DEI discrimination.

Disney also plans to file a motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction asking a court to freeze the proceedings while the case plays out. The FCC…Open

The real host of *To Catch a Predator* says Hollywood never asked his permission to make *Primetime*, and he's still waiting to find out what they did with his story.
