Hooters - known for its scantily-clad waitresses - is the latest American restaurant chain facing financial problems.
Bosses at the chain are in urgent talks with lenders and advisers as the popular chain tries to address $300 million of debts, Bloomberg reported Wednesday.
Earlier this year, Hooters shuttered around 40 'underperforming' restaurants including locations Florida, Kentucky, Rhode Island, Texas and Virginia as it bid to cut costs.
But debts are mounting and more drastic action is needed for the 41-year-old brand.
If Hooters cannot refinance its debt, it would have to consider bankruptcy and more closures.

A 74-year-old woman has been charged after silently praying outside an abortion clinic in Scotland less than a week after U.S. Vice President JD Vance highlighted the draconian thought crime laws in the UK.
The pro-life activist has reportedly become the first person to be arrested and charged under Scotland’s Abortion Services (Safe Access Zones) Act, the BBC reported.
The law, which came into force last year, prohibits any protests or vigils being held within 200m (656ft) of abortion clinics in Scotland, mirroring similar restrictions enacted in England and Wales.
In footage widely distributed on social media, the 74-year-old woman was heard asking police: “Am I committing an offence?”

American life today is characterized in no small part by nearly ceaseless exposure to LGBTQ propaganda. Everywhere you turn, you’re confronted with “the message,” be it in grade schools, on college campuses, while watching television or movies, or at work. There are no “safe spaces” sheltered from the deluge—not even FEMA’s hurricane recovery efforts have been spared.
How did such a small “community” capture America’s institutions? The answer is complex, but a new database by The Project to Expose Corporate Activism (PECA) shines a light on a significant part of the story.
PECA’s database shows that corporations have become the vanguard of the LGBTQ

During an appearance on Thursday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” long-time Democrat strategist and media commentator James Carville declared the collapse of President Donald Trump to be underway already.
Carville, who predicted former Vice President Kamala Harris would be elected to the presidency last November, cited polling and urged Democrats to “just sit back” and let the so-called “collapse” take place.
“[L]et me back up,” he said. “We went with our seven-string quarterback, and we lost by a point and a half, and we actually picked up a congressional seat. So, if you’re asking me, did I think that she was going to win and she didn’t win? Yes,

Tensions between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy are ramping up amid negotiations to ultimately end the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Trump blasted Zelenskyy for being a “dictator without elections” who lost massive amounts of U.S. aid and was responsible for millions of unnecessary deaths. The U.S. president also blasted Zelenskyy for having a four percent approval rating. That percentage was widely contested by the media and even X’s “community notes” which claimed Zelenskyy’s approval rating is 57 percent.
As it turns out, the source of the 57 percent approval claim is suspect, at best.
“Claims that Zelensky has an approval rate of 57% are from the Kyiv International Institute

A so-called Native American activist convicted of murdering two FBI agents in 1975 was welcomed home by a congressional Democrat on Tuesday after former President Joe Biden commuted his sentence.
According to the FBI, in 1975 two FBI agents named Jack Coler and Ronald Williams traveled to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota to serve arrest warrants for robbery and assault.
What ensued next was a shoot-out during which the two agents were killed at close range by activist Leonard Peltier. (X) “An examination of the physical evidence concluded that Agents Williams and Coler had been killed at close range by a .223 type bullet,” the FBI notes.

We need someone of Freud’s intelligence to write a book on the psychopathology of Islamist terrorism. Rather than producing the fourth hostage corpse — right there we have a couple of symptoms — it turns out that Hamas substituted the corpse of a random non-hostage in lieu of that of Mrs. Bibas yesterday.
At the moment Mrs. Bibas is unaccounted for. I infer that her kidnappers have murdered Mrs. Bibas, as they did the Bibas boys, but I’m beyond the limit of my insight into the psychopathology of Islamist terrorism.
Just as a reminder, Hamas had announced the return of Mrs. Bibas’s corpse along with that of her beautiful boys,

Jason Furman is a left-leaning economist who currently works at Harvard but who previously served as chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Obama. So his recent takedown of Bidenomics is coming from an ally of the party not an outsider.
Furman's analysis starts with the fact that voters rejected Biden and Harris because in their view Bidenomics was not a rousing success. If you had to point to a single cause for widespread dissatisfaction with Biden's tenure, it would probably be inflation.
Although there are many explanations for Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 U.S

With all the political rhetoric thrown around in Washington these days, alternating between Donald Trump and Elon Musk as to whom is more Hitleresque depending on what level of government corruption they discover and bring to a halt, you'd think the October 7th attacks by Hamas on Israel alone would check that impulse to invoke Godwin's law in describing the Trump administration. But you'd be wrong.
A few weeks ago, when three hostages were released, emaciated to the point of looking like they'd spent a year inside an actual concentration camp, maybe that could get us to the place where you can disagree with policy and personnel

Alan Dershowitz said he will sue Jack Schlossberg after the social media influencer and only grandson of John F. Kennedy falsely claimed the civil rights attorney and Harvard professor had killed his wife, The Post has learned.
“I hope he will preserve all of his documents because I am about to commence a legal action against him,” Dershowitz, who has been married to Carolyn Cohen since 1986, told The Post Wednesday.
“My lawyers have advised me now that I have a viable defamation action.” Earlier this month, Schlossberg, with wild, unkempt hair, filmed himself attacking the 86-year-old lawyer.

As Japan’s defeat during World War II became obvious, many of its soldiers performed harakiri -- a ritual suicide by disembowelment using a sword -- as an honorable alternative to surrendering. Perhaps one of the most notable moments of a U.S. presidential candidate performing political harakiri occurred in March 2004.
Explaining his vote in support of $87 billion for our wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the Democrat candidate Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass) responded, "I actually voted in favor of the $87 billion before I voted against it." His words famously became reduced to “I was for it before I was against it.” Critics had a field day with this,

Dr. Deborah Birx is trying to save herself, isn’t she? She told Piers Morgan everything our lovely Leslie Eastman said from the beginning of COVID and about the vaccine:
Meant for the immunocompromised and elderly
Nothing like childhood vaccines
Young and healthy people didn’t need it
Wasn’t designed to prevent infection.
I’m immunocompromised with rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren’s syndrome. I refuse to get the COVID vaccine. I still get the flu and pneumonia vaccine, though. The one time I forgot to update my pneumonia shot I got it. I had pneumonia in December 2019, and I wanted to die. COVID? I just slept a lot.
I felt worse with the flu and, of course, pneumonia…
