These Americans gave their lives fighting for Ukraine — and now their parents are sending a message directly to President Trump. “Our loved ones … stood up for what is right. My son, and so many others, said, ‘It’s clear to see that this war is a war of good versus evil,” said Terri Hepworth, the mother of Dane Alan Partridge, who was killed in 2022. “I still don’t think President Trump really understands clearly what our loved ones did.

Dyan Cannon may have plenty of friends, but none with “benefits.” The actress caused a stir at the 10th annual Hollywood Beauty Awards in April when she seemingly revealed that, at age 88, she had “several friends with benefits.”  Cannon, who once dated Johnny Carson and was married to Cary Grant, is the co-host of a new podcast, “God’s Table Hollywood,” which features faith-based conversations about finding purpose. “I went to the red carpet and this really cool gal from People magazine said, ‘Can we interview you?’” Cannon told Fox News Digital. “I said yes.

NEW ORLEANS — As disturbing as the five Giants turnovers were against the Saints in their 26-14 loss Sunday at the Superdome, their lack of pass rush was nearly as alarming.  The defensive front is supposed to be one of their strengths, and yet the Giants failed to register a single sack of Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler and were credited with only a single quarterback hit on him.  This isn’t acceptable for a team that has the likes of Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux and rookie Abdul Carter on the edges and Pro Bowler Dexter Lawrence II in the middle.  Because…

The move backfired, as Warren let in both runs on Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s grand slam in what became a six-run inning that served as the knockout punch in a 13-7 loss in Game 2 of the division series. …

A British forklift driver who turned into a millionaire overnight suffered a life-threatening health scare after months of nonstop partying — forcing him to rethink his post-jackpot lifestyle, according to a report. Adam Lopez, 39, went from having nearly $17 in his bank account to having over $1.3 million on hand after winning a scratch-off lottery in July, BBC reported. By September, Lopez was in the back of an ambulance suffering from a bilateral pulmonary embolism, the outlet reported. “I knew what I was doing was going to come to an end eventually, and it nearly came to an end…
