On Friday’s episode of “The View,” co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin argued it was “wholly irresponsible” for Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom to cast doubt on free and fair elections in the United States under the leadership of President Donald Trump. “We won’t have a country. We won’t have an election that’s fair and free if we don’t stand up,” Newsom told ABC News Thursday, adding Trump wants a “Putin election.” Reacting to Newsom’s comments, Griffin said, “I think it is wholly irresponsible for the governor of the most populous state, who, by the way, oversees elections in his own state.…

A bloodthirsty Sudanese paramilitary commander callously executed men at point-blank range one by one — and then posted sickening footage of the slaughter on social media, as the country’s brutal civil war intensifies. Video shared on social media, and reviewed by the BBC, shows the feared Rapid Support Forces (RSF) brigadier general Abu Lulu systematically gun down nine unarmed captives in the city of el-Fasher in Darfur, which was captured by the militants over the weekend after an 18-month siege. In another disturbing clip, Abu Lulu — whose true name is Al-Fateh Abdullah Idris — was also seen berating a…

Sean “Diddy” Combs could be facing a new criminal probe for allegedly forcing his “Tootsie-Roll” penis on a male music producer after previously masturbating on a shirt belonging to late rapper Biggie and tossing it on his accuser. A recent police “incident/investigation report” obtained by The Post shows that alleged victim Jonathan Hay spoke to cops in late September and repeated his past civil-lawsuit claims that Combs forced him to perform oral sex on him. The accuser estimated to cops that Combs’ penis — once described as a “large Tootsie Roll” by a female accuser — was 4 to 5…

He doesn’t fear them, pity them, or try to redeem them — he loves them. In every film, from Pan’s Labyrinth to Crimson Peak, del Toro builds worlds that are achingly, hauntingly beautiful, but never hollow. His images shimmer with the sacred and the grotesque in equal measure. Beneath the intricate design and painterly light, there’s always a pulse, something human and hurting. Frankenstein is no exception; in fact, it might be his most personal act of devotion yet. Frankenstein feels…

LUJAN, Argentina (AP) — Lions, tigers and bears that managed to survive in substandard conditions at a now-shuttered zoo on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, Argentina, paced weakly in their claustrophobic cages on Thursday, waiting their turn to receive urgent veterinary care for the first time in years. The 62 big cats and two brown bears were being evaluated and treated before their eventual transfer to vast wildlife sanctuaries abroad — among the most complex animal rescues undertaken in Argentina after the country’s recent arrangement with an international animal welfare organization. Animal welfare organization members treating a tiger at the former…

Daniel tells me his wife has turned their children against him, blaming him for the divorce. Maggie tells me that her children refuse to see her, talk to her, or even respond to text messages. Poppy, who is only 12, says she wants nothing to do with her father and is prepared to starve herself until the judge changes the custody arrangement. These situations are all too common in divorce and heartbreaking to witness. The rejected parent feels helpless, anguished, and desperate. The child often feels abandoned, enraged, confused, and overwhelmed. Why do children sometimes reject a parent? It’s complicated.…
