Former Fox News host Eric Bolling took the time to address his millions of supporters Saturday amid what must be the toughest time of his life.

News broke Saturday afternoon that Bolling's 19-year-old son, Eric Chase Bolling Jr., was found dead late Friday.

In a pair of tweets posted to his Twitter account, Bolling said that he and his wife, Adrienne, are "devastated" by the loss of their only child. He also said the details surrounding Chase's death were still unclear.

In the legal world there is a principle known as the "Fruit of the Poisonous Tree." The concept, as defined by Wikipedia, is that if the initial evidence proving a crime is illegal, all evidence stemming from that evidence is also illegal. To put it simply, if the tree is poisonous, so is the fruit.

There is no better way to describe DACA (Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals), and its liberal defenders, than this.

It may seem as if the I'm about to go down the road exploring the illegality of President Obama's using the Executive Pen to create a law which 1) overrode an act of Congress and 2) was ruled illegal by the courts. While both of these things are true, it isn't my main point.

My point is to refute the argument that DACA recipients are all victims looking for a better life, and deporting them is cruel.

The truth is all DACA recipients are criminals. Not only did every one of them commit a crime by coming here, they also committed subsequent crimes to avoid detection and deportation:

Our duo of hurricanes, Harvey and Irma, have elevated the perceived risks of climate change in a lot of people's minds. Are these disasters, and the record heat in many places, a sign of climate warming already out of control?

The quick answer is maybe, but climate scientists will need a lot more data and probably a few more years to know whether we are seeing a blip or a trend. From a persuasion perspective, the fascinating thing to me is that the climate science "sides" have reversed because of the storms. And here I am only talking about non-scientists on social media.

Last winter I saw climate skeptics (or deniers in some cases) proclaiming climate change a hoax because it was cold outside. The scientists and pro-climate-change folks mocked those poor souls for not understanding the difference between anecdotal evidence and science. You can't determine a long term trend by looking out the window, say all scientists. And if you think you can, you're being a big dope who doesn't know the first thing about science.

If you don't understand that anecdotal data in isolation is generally useless to scientists, you don't understand anything about science. A year ago, that described a lot of climate skeptics who were looking out their windows, seeing snow, and declaring climate change a hoax.

But that was last year. This week the sides reversed. Now I keep seeing climate alarmists on social media looking at the hurricanes and declaring them strong evidence of climate change. They might be right. But if they are, it is by coincidence and not by science. Scientists say it is too early to tell. So now we have a bizarre situation in which the pro-science side is disagreeing with the scientists on their own side. That's what confirmation bias gets you. Both sides see anecdotal evidence as real. Both sides think they respect and understand the basics of science. Both sides are wrong.

The first police dog on the scene at the Manchester Arena terrorist attack has been left mentally scarred by what he witnessed, his handler has revealed.

PC Phil Healy said his dog Mojo developed stress-related alopecia after the bombing and admitted his sidekick hasn't returned his normal self.

The pair were some of the first at the scene arriving minutes after the explosion, and were tasked with searching the vast building for more bombs.

Both Mojo and handler Phil have now both returned to the scene of the horrific terror attack on several occasions, including for the re-opening We Are Manchester benefit gig, where they were both again on duty.

Vandals defiled a 125-year-old bronze statue of Christopher Columbus in New York's Central Park overnight, covering its hands in 'blood' red paint and scrawling in white paint "Hate will not be tolerated" on its pedestal.

A worker for the Central Park Conservancy discovered the vandalism early Tuesday morning and called the police, according to the New York Post.

Along with the red paint on the statue's hands, a paper sign that read "Save your soul" had been placed on the pedestal, along with the hashtag #SomethingsComing.

The statue is located in the southern portion of the famous park in the middle of Manhattan, near the monument to William Shakespeare.

The teenage Afghan migrant who raped and murdered Maria Ladenburger, 19, in 2016 broke down in tears in court Monday as he lamented the decision destroyed his life.

Hussein Khavari claimed he was drunk and had been smoking hashish Oct. 16 when he heard Ladenburger, a medical student and the daughter of a top EU official, fall off her bike. He admitted that he then raped her, strangled her with her own scarf, and drowned her in a nearby river. He now claims he is "sad" for what he did, Express reported.

"When I saw how pretty she was, I wanted to have sex with her," he told the court.

Khavari, who arrived in Germany in 2015, was arrested in December 2016 and had remained silent during his interrogations until his Monday court appearance.

Sen. Bernie Sander's plan to move to a single-payer health care system hasn't been introduced as legislation yet, but already he's working on shoring up support among his colleagues.

Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Kamala Harris, D-Calif. - two prominent women thought to be potential 2020 presidential contenders - have both announced their support for Sanders' "Medicare for All" plan. The senators have said they intend to cosponsor the legislation.

And former Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., seen as the Affordable Care Act's architect, told NBC News last week that "the time has come" for single-payer.

With the ObamaCare debate continuing in the U.S., popularity for the European-style health care model of single-payer has gained more traction, especially among more progressive Democrats.

Some states have already tried - and failed - to implement such a system, in which the government serves as the sole payer for health care costs. Like the current health care law and recent GOP proposals to overhaul it, single-payer plans are controversial.

Here is a look at what single-payer health care is, and how it compares to other models.

Hundreds of Afghans have protested against the US military's distribution of "offensive" leaflets near Bagram Airfield which showed a passage from the Koran on a dog - an animal considered impure in Islam.

The demonstrators gathered in the Qarabagh district in Kabul province, near Bagram Airfield, Tuesday, with some setting tires on fire and others waving placards which depicted US President Donald Trump as a dog.

One of the protesters told RT's Ruptly video news agency that Afghans are "very sad and angry" about the flyers which were dropped by the US military earlier this month.

"The US has been bombarding our people and they are killing our women and children everywhere in Afghanistan," the protester continued. "So we are ready [men, women and children] for anti-American jihad. They did not come to help us, but they came to make problems for the Muslims in Afghanistan and around the world. We don't want the US to be in Afghanistan."

Several blocks around the iconic Sagrada Familia church in Barcelona were sealed off by the police on Tuesday evening after complaints about a suspicious van parked outside.

Armed police searched bins, and told shopkeepers to close their businesses, as a bomb squad examined the vehicle. About an hour after news of the operation began filtering through to the media, police declared the incident a "false alarm."

Police said that there were two people inside the van, but that nobody was arrested.

At least 16 victims and eight suspected Islamic terrorists died in a series of attacks through the region of Catalonia last month. The worst of these happened in the city's main street of La Rambla, where a rented van mowed down pedestrians, killing 15 and injuring more than 130 others.

Local media reported that the attackers had planned to set off homemade explosive charges near the UNESCO-listed landmark, but were dissuaded when two of them died in an accidental blast days before the attack.

A report by cyber security firm FireEye suggests North Korean hackers are targeting cryptocurrency exchanges in South Korea in an attempt to avoid sanctions and fund "the state or personal coffers of Pyongyang's elite."

According to FireEye, hackers linked to North Korea have stolen bitcoins from at least three South Korean cryptocurrency exchanges since May 2017. They used spear phishing - a fraudulent practice of sending fake emails - and dispersed malware to obtain virtual cash illicitly.

Cryptocurrency attacks by North Korea were first detected in 2016. In April, four wallets on the Seoul-based cryptocurrency exchange Yapizon were compromised, but could not be clearly linked to North Korean involvement. Yapizon announced losing 3,816 bitcoins or about $5.3 million. The company, however, did not disclose who it believed to be responsible for the crime.
