An anonymous "Secret Santa" paid off $8,000 in layaway accounts at a Burlington department store in Wilmington, Delaware.

Special Counsel Robert Hur has been appointed to investigate classified materials found in Joe Biden’s Wilmington residence, including documents stored in a garage next to his Corvette.

The cultural impact of climate change is seen in the emergence of "eco-horror" in film and media, where the planet itself acts as the monster.

Joe Biden is criticized for several inaccuracies in his public statements, including misremembering the details of George Floyd's death and the number of officers fired in Minneapolis.

His "you ain't black" comment is noted as having disappeared from media coverage.

The body of John Wheeler, a former presidential advisor and Pentagon official, was discovered in a Cherry Island landfill after falling out of a trash truck.
