Meet Myles Cosgrove.  You might remember his face from the 2021 killing of Breonna Taylor who died when cops opened fire during a Louisville narcotics raid.  Forensics believes one of his rounds killed the young woman.  Mr. Cosgrove fired 16 rounds into the tiny apartment after Taylor's boyfriend fired a…

Last week, FoxNews "settled" a lawsuit filed by the Dominion Voting System for close to a billion dollars.  This week, they "parted ways" with their highest rated personality, Tucker Carlson.  They also sacked Dan Bongino.
