Barack Obama is facing a fresh humiliation at his 'eyesore' presidential center with workers slamming the project's bosses and moving to unionize just months after it opened. In a letter to colleagues this week, staff at the Chicago library said they were organizing a union due to the institute's 'increasing workloads' and benefit rollbacks. Workers have grown frustrated with leadership at Obama's foundation after their concerns were met with 'vague responses,' according to the letter, first shared by the Chicago Sun-Times. Issues with workloads and benefits have led to a 'high turnover rate' among employees, with many more 'continuing to...

HIALEAH, Fla. — A North Bay Village police officer was arrested Tuesday after authorities said she attacked her boyfriend at her home in Hialeah after he said he “wanted to end things.” According to an arrest report from the Hialeah Police Department, the boyfriend of Officer Marcia Sangronis flagged officers down Tuesday morning to report that he had been physically abused. The HPD report states that the victim told officers that Sangronis, 38, becomes “angry and violent” whenever discussing “his lack of motivation to pursue a career in law enforcement.” According to the report, he had stayed the night at...

Should paid protesters be REQUIRED to give notice who is paying them? After all, TV and RADIO ads are required to say "paid for by..." And paying a protester could be considered just another form of paid promotion.

I wonder whether Zohran Mamdani has ever read Shakespeare or sticks mainly to Karl Marx. If he has ever dabbled in the Bard, he may know the idiom “hoist with his own petard.” In Hamlet, a petard was a crude medieval explosive used to blow open castle gates, and the unlucky engineer was the one launched skyward. That is precisely where this tard finds himself today, lifted by the very cause he weaponized, which now seeks to destroy him. After the Marxist, maleficent, Muslim mayor of New York City ostentatiously attended an October 7 vigil mourning the Israelis slaughtered that...

On Wednesday, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani sparked outrage with a statement that opened with a brief nod to those killed in the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attack but devoted most of its length to accusing Israel of genocide. The statement began, “This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others.” Then he turned to Israel-bashing: “The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s...

A Massachusetts mother was shot to death inside her home as authorities launched an hours-long manhunt to capture her adult son, who had fled to Vermont. Andria Hanafin was found dead from an apparent gunshot wound inside the kitchen of her Reading, Mass., home at around 12:38 a.m. on Thursday, the Reading Police Department said.

Europe’s decline warns America what happens when a civilization loses the confidence to defend its culture, institutions, and national purpose. Britain is America's mother country. Regardless of what one may think of the once-Great Britain today, much of America's essence sprang from that island's political philosophy, cultural inheritance, legal tradition, and national character. Our language, common law, conception of liberty, parliamentary instincts, and stubborn individualism all trace back directly to Britain. Britain may have declined, but the DNA of its greatness lives on in us. Its decline is therefore not merely a foreign story. It is a cautionary tale written...

Okay, she probably already has a lawyer, but the fact remains: she’ll need a good one, at least until she’s out of the woods. The Trump DOJ is moving to indict Cassidy Hutchinson for providing false testimony before Congress. She was the January 6 select committee’s star witness, a dog-and-pony show that wasted taxpayer dollars. Hutchinson decided to spill the beans about what happened during that little riot, including a patently untrue, laughable anecdote about Trump trying to commandeer the Beast to head to the Capitol. That’s not even grounded in reality. A federal grand jury has heard evidence for...

October 7, 2023 was the deadliest day for Jewish people since the Holocaust. Nearly three years later, survivors are still fighting to be believed. Nova Music Festival survivor Noa Beer escaped a terrorist ambush, pulled wounded strangers into her car, and received a chilling voice note during the attack itself. Now she joins Dr. Phil to respond directly to a mainstream media report that reignited a firestorm over media accountability, antisemitism, and whose trauma gets believed.

A left-wing politician who shares his name with fascist dictators Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini has become the mayor of a Peruvian town – just one year after he resigned from a right-wing populist party. Hitler Mussolini Simeon Flores, 45, prevailed with 34% of the vote in Sunday’s election in Queropalca, running on a center-left ticket for Peru’s Ahora Nacion (Now Nation) party. It’s unclear when the politician joined the Ahora Nacion party, but he was previously a member of the right-wing Popular Force party before resigning in 2025, according to his candidate declaration form. Popular Force is a populist...

Everybody knows what the last weeks of a political campaign are like: phones ringing constantly, chaotic activity, exhausting twenty-hour days, racing from one rally or speech to the next. An all-out, pedal-to-the-metal effort by all hands. So why, with the first plausible chance at snagging a Texas Senate seat for the Democrats in a generation at risk, has James Talarico ceased campaigning at all? It’s going on two weeks since Talarico dropped out of sight. His last public appearance was 13 days ago during fundraising trips to LA and New York City. The last confirmed sighting was on September 26...

Drinking game--Tish says "Trump" or "This Administration" in her lame debate with Saritha for AG of NYS.

The US will livestream the Army's upcoming firing squad execution of Nidal Hasan, a gunman who killed 13 people at the Fort Hood military base in 2009, the Pentagon said, in what would be an unprecedented broadcast of a US execution.
