EW YORK (AP) — New York City residents are accustomed to warnings about all kinds of potential threats — severe weather, public health, mass shootings. But a new PSA on surviving a nuclear attack has rattled some cages. Released this week by the city’s emergency management agency, the 90-second video advises citizens to stay indoors and wash off any radioactive dust or ash. It opens on a computer-generated street, devoid of life. Damaged skyscrapers can be seen in the background.

krainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Russia's military is too cowardly to concede defeat, and touted his own country's military prowess as a counter-offensive is launched in southern Ukraine. Zelensky struck an assured tone in a national speech on Tuesday where he also highlighted Ukraine's growing closeness with the Western-based NATO alliance. The Ukrainian president's remarks come after an infusion of weapons from Western allies and as the country seeks to beat back Russia's territorial gains in Ukraine. Zelensky said in the speech that Russian occupiers "will not have a safe rear anywhere on our land." He said that intercepted...

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, detailed his change of heart on abortion laws on Tuesday after GOP members of the committee pointed out his past desire to overturn Roe v. Wade. At the committee’s hearing on legal concerns in a post-Roe America, Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) submitted a copy of a letter Durbin wrote in 1989 in which he condemned “abortion on demand” and wrote, “I continue to believe the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade should be reversed.” “The doomsday calls from those on the left are ignoring common sense,” Lee said....

The World Economic Forum (WEF) released a brief video in 2018 telling us about its “predictions” for 2030. Needless to say, these people are predicting planning nothing more than pure Marxism. The estimated arrival time is in eight years. https://twitter.com/i/status/983378870819794945

A cop who responded to the Uvalde school shooting massacre was captured on camera bizarrely using hand sanitizer as officers hung around the school’s hallway for over an hour before taking down the killer. The oddly-timed cowardly act, revealed in the footage first obtained by the Austin-American Statesman, only fueled the anger directed at the cops who responded to the mass shooting that killed 21 people. The 77-minute clip shows officers charge Robb Elementary School minutes after the rampage began, but then they stopped and didn’t confront the gunman for more than an hour even as Salvador Ramos shot and...

White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci conceded that COVID-19 vaccines do not protect "overly well" against infection Tuesday on "Your World." DR. FAUCI: One of the things that's clear from the data [is] that even though vaccines - because of the high degree of transmissibility of this virus - don't protect overly well, as it were, against infection, they protect quite well against severe disease leading to hospitalization and death. And I believe that's the reason, Neil, why at my age, being vaccinated and boosted, even though it didn't protect me against infection, I feel confident that it...

Like many of his male friends, Serhiy no longer leaves his home in western Ukraine for fear of being sent to the front line to replace soldiers killed or injured in the fight against Russia. The construction worker spends his days hiding from military officials serving call-up papers at bars, beaches, checkpoints, malls and even church services. One woman complained that officials even chased an 18-year-old riding his bicycle to serve his call-up documents. ‘It’s like some kind of wild boar hunt,’ she said. ‘Why do you need to send to war a person who doesn’t want to go there...

Watching the uproar over Lia Thomas play out in his backyard didn’t change Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf‘s mind about transgender athletes in women’s sports. In a widely expected move, the Democratic governor vetoed the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act, which would have barred male-born athletes who identify as female from joining girls’ and women’s scholastic teams. In a statement, Mr. Wolf said the bill’s supporters “should be ashamed of themselves.” “I have been crystal clear during my time in office that hate has no place in Pennsylvania, especially discrimination against already marginalized youth representing less than half of 1 percent...

Pennsylvania’s Attorney General Josh Shapiro, a Democrat, says in the filing that election officials in the three Republican-controlled counties refused to count absentee and mail-in ballots that were...

A Georgia man became trapped while trying to crawl down through a vent from a strip mall roof into a pizza restaurant on Tuesday, forcing firefighters to slice open the vent to free him, police said. SNIP Police told local news outlets that emergency responders cut open the vent where it extended upward from a pizza oven at a Little Caesars outlet in suburban Lithonia, about 15 miles east of downtown Atlanta. Brittany Davis, a U.S. Army recruiter, told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution she could hear the man yelling for help when she arrived for work at a neighboring recruiting office.

The court considers 'Moore v. Harper' to be a legitimate constitutional question. Critics say it's a 'power grab.' The Supreme Court has announced its intention to take up Moore v. Harper this fall, a case that critics claim is "perhaps the gravest threat to American democracy since the Jan. 6 attack." Here's everything you need to know: What's at stake in 'Moore v. Harper'?

According to The Carolina Journal, the...

In a speech on Monday, Jill Biden said the Latino community was "as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio." Biden made the remarks at a Latino advocacy conference in the Alamo City. Her remarks drew swift rebuke from Republicans and others, including the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, which issued a statement saying her comment “demonstrates a lack of cultural knowledge and sensitivity to the divinity of Latinos in the region.” NAHJ encourages @FLOTUS & her communications team to take time to better understand the complexities of our people & communities. We are not tacos. Our heritage...
