A music festival in Texas that was entirely dedicated to the solar eclipse is now getting scrapped entirely -- and the reason is a little freaky ... an omen, even, perhaps.

The event is called Texas Eclipse 2024 ... a 5-day get-together in Burnet, TX -- which seems to be very much in the vein of Burning Man ... which you can sense from all their marketing and promotional material, not to mention all the pics and vids they have up on socials.

All was well for these past few days ... however, on Monday, the festival organizers broke some startling news -- namely, their whole event was just canceled over crappy weather.

Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert reportedly got herself into hot water at a pre-Christmas Republican event in NYC, getting so drunk that she became unruly to the point where she was ordered to stop taking selfies with former President Donald Trump.

Boebert's embarrassing episode took place at the New York Young Republican Club's annual gala on December 9, 2023, according to CNN, citing attendees who witnessed the incident.

Waitstaff first told Boebert they wouldn't serve her any more alcohol after they noticed she was intoxicated inside Cipriani Wall Street, CNN said. A source told the network one waiter was spotted walking up to Boebert and informing her she had been "overserved."

An elderly woman was killed in Africa during a safari trip -- this after an elephant charged her party's vehicle ... and flipped it over, which left her fatally wounded.

El terremoto más poderoso en Taiwán en un cuarto de siglo no logró perturbar a una presentadora de televisión, que siguió adelante mientras el estudio se movía violentamente.

SET News estaba en directo poco antes de las 8 de la mañana del miércoles, cuando se produjo el sismo de 7,4 grados de magnitud. La emisora se encuentra en la capital de Taiwán, Taipei, y mientras la mayoría de la gente iba a buscar refugio, dondequiera que estuviesen, la presentadora no parecía estar intimidada en absoluto.

En el video se pueden ver trozos del techo cayendo al suelo, la cámara inestable y las luces balanceándose como si estuvieran al aire libre en un día ventoso. La reportera parecía algo inestable, pero mantuvo la compostura mientras se aferraba al monitor de TV.

The most powerful earthquake in Taiwan in a quarter century did not upend a national newscast, as the anchor plowed ahead as the studio was violently shaking.

The video is crazy ... SET News was on the set live just before 8 AM Wednesday when the 7.4 magnitude quake struck. The station is in Taiwan's capital, Taipei, as most people scrambled for safety ... wherever that might be. Not so with the anchor, who did not seem daunted at all as the earth moved.

You see pieces of the ceiling crashing to the ground, the camera unsteady and the lights swaying as if they were outside on a windy day. The reporter seemed unsteady on her feet but kept it together as she clung to the TV monitor.

Taiwán se convirtió en un infierno la mañana del miércoles, cuando un fuerte terremoto sacudió a la isla frente a China, provocando la muerte de al menos 9 personas e hiriendo a más de 900, mientras dejaba a decenas de personas atrapadas.

Las autoridades locales informaron que el temblor fue de 7,4 grados en la escala de Richter, lo que lo convierte en el más potente en 25 años en el país, con casi 24 millones de habitantes. Los temblores también se sintieron en la capital, Taipéi.

Pero el condado de Hualien, situado en la costa este de la isla, pareció ser el más afectado por el sismo, afectando incluso la infraestructura de la ciudad.

Taiwan turned into hell on Earth Wednesday morning as a massive earthquake rocked the island off China, killing at least 9 people and injuring over 900 more, while leaving dozens trapped.

Local Taiwanese officials said the tremors registered 7.4 on the Richter scale, making it the most powerful quake to hit the island in 25 years with its nearly 24 million residents. The shocks were also felt in the capital of Taipei.

But Hualien County – located on the island's east coast -- appeared to be hardest hit by the quake, decimating the county's infrastructure.

Donald Trump can keep his cherished properties instead of having them seized by New York's Attorney General -- at least for now – after he posted a whopping $175 million bond!

As you know ... the former prez was saddled with a $454 million bond in his civil fraud case brought by AG Letitia James, but he appealed and got the amount slashed to $175 mil.

On Tuesday, DT took to his Truth Social platform to gloat right after paying the lesser, but still staggering bond amount. He also blasted James and the case judge, calling them corrupt and the whole situation election interference. No shocker there.
