    Taking advantage of a generous New York state program to aid his ailing mother, Ballal Hossain signed up a dozen family members to work as her caregivers. Over six years, they were paid $348,000 to look after the elderly woman at a Manhattan apartment. Except the mom was in Bangladesh the entire time. Incredibly, Hossain got away with the fraud by having his brother pose as their sick mother for whenever inspectors showed up, before finally being caught. He was later sentenced for grand larceny, according to prosecutors. It’s just one egregious example of a welfare program — called the...

    WASHINGTON — He’s in hot watters. “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez exploded at a “Jesse Watters Primetime” producer who goaded her to go on the show, accusing the host of being a “pervert.” The lefty congresswoman harked back to Fox News host Jesse Watters’ suggestion last year that she wanted to “sleep” with White House deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller. “He has sexualized and harassed me on his show,” she raged to producer Johnny Belisario. “He has sexually harassed me on his show. He has engaged in horrific, sexually exploitative rhetoric.” Belisario shot back: “That’s not true, Congresswoman.”...

    “In love [God] predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will” (Eph. 1:4-5). Because God loves you, He adopted you as His child and grants you all the rights and privileges of family membership. Moses told Israel that God didn't choose them because of their great numbers or any inherent goodness on their part, but as an expression of God's sovereign will and sacrificial love (Deut. 7:7-8). That's true of you as well if you're a Christian. The Greek word translated “love” in Ephesians 1:4 speaks not of emotional...

    Yesterday, several videos went viral of Renee Nicole Macklin Good blocking ICE from driving down a neighborhood street in Minneapolis with a vehicle during an ICE raid. In one of the videos, several ICE agents are seen approaching the vehicle where Good was sitting in the driver’s seat. Her Honda SUV was parked perpendicular to traffic. Two ICE agents approach the window of the vehicle and demand that she move. She backs up, repositions her tires so she is aiming directly at the ICE agent standing to her right, and points her vehicle at the ICE agent in front of...

    A GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the wife and son of Renee Nicole Good, the woman who was fatally shot while trying to mow down an ICE agent, has raised nearly $600,000 in less than a day. Good was shot on Wednesday during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis, in which she was using her vehicle to impede the operation throughout the day. The situation turned deadly when she began to accelerate her vehicle into an officer, who fired in what appears to be a clear-cut case of self-defense. The fundraiser, organized by Mattie Weiss, is titled “Support for Renee...

An employee of the hotel leaked surveillance photos, email addresses and names of the ICE agents after they checked in at the front desk. The leaked images and identifying information about the agents ended up in an anti-ICE Reddit thread dubbed “ICE WATCH MN.” The hotel released a statement to Fox News: “The privacy and safety of our guests is of the utmost importance to us. Upon learning of this situation last evening, we immediately investigated...

He opened his comments by saying, “You have to be accountable for your conduct, and that starts with the mayor. Did you hear his filthy talk? Did you hear his filthy, uninformed talk yesterday?” Breitbart News reported that Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) responded to the ICE-involved shooting by...

    Just when you thought Minnesota had hit rock bottom, the state achieves a new level of chaos. Once again it is the epicenter of a self-serving, destructive “revolution” at the behest of an incompetent, unhinged and rancorous city and state leadership, helmed by Governor Tim Walz. According to local reports, “A 37-year-old woman was fatally shot by a federal agent on Wednesday, January 7, in south Minneapolis during an immigration enforcement operation. The shooting happened around 9:30 a.m. in the area of East 34th Street and Portland Avenue. The woman, later identified as Renee Nicole Good, died at the hospital.”...
  • Vitamin C may help protect fertility from a harmful environmental chemical

    A new discovery reveals that vitamin C may help protect reproductive health from a harmful environmental chemical. Using a fish model, researchers found that exposure to potassium perchlorate, a chemical commonly used in explosives and fireworks, can harm sperm production, potentially reducing fertility. Led by Ramji Bhandari, the team used Japanese rice fish, called medaka, to investigate how the chemical affects reproductive health. Researchers found that male fish exposed to potassium perchlorate alone experienced a dramatic drop in fertility and clear damage to their testes. But fish exposed to vitamin C and the chemical at the same time showed improved...

    The Economist ^ | 01/08/2026
    That our people should live in their own homes is a sentiment deep in the heart of our race and of American life,” said President Herbert Hoover, perhaps the most important advocate of mass homeownership in the country’s history, in 1931. “They never sing songs about a pile of rent receipts.” But a ballad about the rental market is overdue. When rich-world interest rates began to surge in 2022, renting became a better deal than buying. House prices have since stagnated or slumped in many places, and rates are falling. Even so, there is reason to think that the winning...

    Carson Beck came to Miami to get the Hurricanes to the College Football Playoff. His TD run with 18 seconds to go in the Fiesta Bowl put the team in the national championship game. Beck — a player not known for his scrambling ability — rushed for the game-winning score in No. 10 Miami's 31-27 win over No. 6 Ole Miss. It was Beck's first rushing TD since he scored in Week 3 against South Florida. And it put Miami a win away from the school's first title since the 2001 season.
