The Pelosis may want to skip the wine tasting this time. A little more than a month after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul was busted for DUI in California — leaving him facing jail time — the multi-millionaire couple was spotted at a ritzy resort on the Italian seaside owned by legendary tenor Andrea Bocelli. The Post exclusively obtained photos of the couple — Nancy dressed in all white with Paul clad in dark-colored shorts and shirt — hanging with Bocelli, his wife Veronica Berti, and others at the Alpemare Beach Club. The California Democrat was also pictured in...

Fat, weak and slow is no way to become a cop — or is it? The NYPD dramatically relaxed the fitness requirements to become a city cop amid a record wave of retirements that has the brass desperate for warm bodies to fill the ranks, The Post has learned The department replaced a faux 6-foot wall inside the Police Academy gym with a chain-link fence that’s easier to climb, according to official recruiting videos posted online. The move came after a cellphone was used last year to record a series of out-of-shape, wannabe cops laughably trying — and failing —...

Here it is, the Declaration of Local State Of Disaster by Kinney County. “The County Judge of Kinney County, TX, has determined that extraordinary measures must be taken to ensure the protection of the health, safety, and welfare of county residents”

During a Monday airing of The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan vehemently shut down the possibility of interviewing the 45th President of the United States. I am not a Trump supporter, in any way, shape or form,' Rogan, 54, said. 'I have had the opportunity to have him on my show, more than once, and I have said no every time.' The controversial podcaster weighed in on the devastatingly polarized political spectrum in America and said he was not interested in giving Trump a platform because the former president is an 'existential threat to democracy itself.' 'It is already a weird...

On Monday, the country recorded that imports outstripped exports for more than 30 years. Its entire economy has been built around creating an industrial machine that dominates global markets. That machine is now grinding to a halt. Exports unexpectedly fell, while imports surged as the cost of energy spiked. Until recently it was racking up surpluses of 8 or 9 per cent of GDP, or €20 billion a month, the biggest in the world. The German economy is based on selling high-end industrial goods to the rest of the world. Unlike many other countries, it doesn’t have huge service industries...

The apparent Highland Park mass murderer who shot up the city’s Independence Day parade yesterday was on the prowl at the local Chabad center earlier this year. The center is located on Central a few blocks from the site of the shooting and sheltered escapees of the attack. Rabbi Yosef Schanowitz recognized the photo released by police following the shooting and realized he had encountered the suspect a few months earlier. “During the last Passover holiday, that person entered the Chabad synagogue. We have an armed security guard sitting in front… I approached him and sternly asked him to leave...

Some highly puzzling messages were leaked to The Daily Caller from Cassidy Hutchinson reaching out to CPAC, the Conservatives Political Action Conference, for assistance with her “BS” subpoena from the Jan. 6th committee. But what does it mean? To be honest, I’m not entirely sure, but it confirms a lot of things, and simultaneously raises A LOT of questions. For starters, why the hell is Cassidy Hutchinson reaching out to the conservative Mecca of CPAC, for help with Jan. 6th subpoena? Why would she seek conservative help if her plan was to go up there and fabricate nonsense about Trump....

Left-wing pop star Katy Perry’s pro-abortion rant on Independence Day backfired as the Joe Biden backer was called out by fans for her support of what they called an “anti-abortion” mayoral candidate in billionaire developer Rick Caruso. On the Fourth of July, Perry reacted to the U.S. Supreme Court recently overruling Roe v. Wade by bizarrely claiming that a sparkler has more rights than women in the United States. “‘Baby you’re a firework’ is a 10 but women in the US have fewer rights than an actual sparkler [shaking my head],” the singer wrote, referring to her 2010 song “Firework.”...

Law enforcement was caught off guard by a white supremacist group's demonstration in Boston last weekend, according to Boston Mayor Michelle Wu. Both Wu and U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Rachael Rollins said they were told by Boston Police and the FBI that neither agency had advance warning that about 100 members of the group Patriot Front planned to march through downtown Boston wearing face coverings. Investigators said they are now reviewing video recordings from the scene to identify members who allegedly assaulted a Black person. Wu said the city needs to be better prepared for the next time there's a...

Canadians will be required to get a booster shot every nine months for the foreseeable future, Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos told reporters. So if you thought you were fully vaccinated, think again. Duclos said that the previous definitions of “fully vaccinated” makes no sense, explaining that it’s more important that shots are “up to date” and whether or not a person has “received a vaccination in the last nine months.” He added, “We will never be fully vaccinated against COVID-19,” according to Blacklock’s Reporter. Duclos was asked if he was preparing Canadians for the return of vaccine mandates in the...

A bill that bans arrests for “loitering with the intent of prostitution” was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom during the weekend, formally ending the long-standing practice to crackdown on prostitution in cities across the state.

LOCKPORT, N.Y. — Live to be 100 and some things may not last. "Can you hear her OK, dad?" Bruce Kinyon asked his dad, Roy Kinyon. "Talk again," Roy Kinyon said. However, Roy Kinyon's love of baseball has always remained. It's all thanks to his older brother, Ralph. "He wanted to pitch for the Yankees, so everyday I was out catching them so he could pitch for the Yankees," Roy Kinyon said. Roy Kinyon, a 100-year-old from Lockport, spent so much time trying to make his brother better that he got better. His high school baseball team won the Niagara...

Former President Donald Trump leads President Joe Biden in a hypothetical 2024 presidential matchup, June’s Harvard Caps Harris Poll revealed. The survey, which happened to show Trump standing as the most popular politician in the country, pitted Trump against Biden in a hypothetical matchup. In that scenario, Trump led Biden by three percentage points — 43 percent to 40 percent. Another 17 percent remained unsure. Trump’s lead widened even further when matched against Vice President Kamala Harris, leading by six percent, or 45 percent to 39 percent. In that matchup, 16 percent remained undecided. The survey, overall, found Trump led...

[Catholic Caucus] Bishop Strickland to Pope Francis: Denying Communion to Nancy Pelosi is ‘pastoral care’‘Pastoral care for Mrs. Pelosi is to tell her that she should not receive the Body of Christ until she stops advocating the murder of unborn children,’ wrote the Texas bishop.TYLER, Texas (LifeSiteNews) – Bishop Joseph Strickland told Pope Francis pro-abortion and self-acclaimed “Catholic” Nancy Pelosi should be denied Holy Communion. In a July 4 tweet responding to Pope’s Francis’ criticism of denying pro-abortion politicians Communion, Strickland stated that denying pro-abortion U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is treating her with “pastoral care.” “I thank Pope Francis...

Mina’s World, a cafe in Philadelphia that prided itself in being “Queer-owned,” has officially closed its doors after a woke employee revolt. The cafe was owned by Kate Egghart and Sonam Parikh, two queer activists who started Mina’s in an effort to create an inclusive coffee shop. However, their employees have claimed Egghart and Parikh are anti-black and “gentrifiers.” Gentrifier is a woke term used to describe those who purposely contribute to the displacement of low-income families. Mina’s World was located just around the corner from Malcolm X Park in Philadelphia and employed mostly minority workers. Ironically— prior to the...

In April 2022, I made a video in which I predicted that we had eight months of freedom left. I stand by the timing. We now have six months left – and that takes us until Christmas 2022. I’m not suggesting that we’re all suddenly going to die by Christmas. What I am suggesting (and this is in some ways scarier) is that things are now moving so fast that unless we stand up and defend ourselves we will be too far along the road towards an existence built around the principles of social credit; too far along to stop...

A woke school board director in Washington state is planning to teach children as young as nine about topics like sexual pleasure in a series of workshops at her sex shop. Jenn Mason, who serves as the school board director for the Bellingham School District, is hosting four three-hour sexual education classes in August at her sex shop WinkWink Boutique as part of an event series dubbed the 'Uncringe Academy.' The courses are broken down by age with children 9 to 12 in one class, and children 13 to 17 years old in another. They cost $50 each, but scholarships...

The IRS has reportedly spent $725,000 this year on ammo. Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz has introduced a bill to disarm the Internal Revenue Service. Along with fellow Republican Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), Jeff Duncan (S.C.), and Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Gaetz is pushing the "Disarm the IRS Act," which would prohibit the IRS from acquiring (by purchase or otherwise) any ammunition. The bill arrives following Gaetz's discovery that this year alone the IRS has spent $725,000 on ammunition. Odd timing, he says, considering the nationwide shortage of ammo and Biden administration's stated animosity toward gun rights. "Here's the Biden...

A couple of weeks ago, Maajid Nawaz, host of Radical, interviewed Dr. Mike Yeadon PhD, a former vice-president and chief scientific adviser for the drug company Pfizer, about why he believes that the narratives around Covid-19 are false and were put into place deliberately to exert control over society. “You have likely seen Yeadon being interviewed many times previously, but I strongly encourage you to watch this one as he explains items I have never heard him previously discuss,” wrote Dr. Joseph Mercola. Yeadon says you’ve been lied to about the magnitude of the threat represented by this entity called...
