WASHINGTON, Oct 6 (Reuters) - The number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits increased by the most in four months last week, but the labor market remains tight even as demand for labor is cooling amid higher interest rates. Some of the larger-than-expected jump in jobless claims reported by the Labor Department on Thursday was blamed on Hurricane Fiona, with filings surging in Puerto Rico, which was ravaged by the storm in the second half of September. Claims data in the coming weeks will likely be distorted by Hurricane Ian, which cut a swath of destruction across Florida...

The co-host of Bernie & Sid in the Morning, Bernard McGuirk passed away Wednesday night following a bout with prostate cancer, just a few weeks shy of his 65th birthday.

A special tribute for McGuirk, including memories and thoughts from the WABC staff, will air on Tuesday, October 11, 2022. Red Apple CEO John Catsimatidis said, “We are all devastated by the loss of Bernie. He was a true New Yorker whose talent and intelligence propelled him to the top of...

A federal judge in Syracuse, New York has granted a temporary restraining order blocking the state and its political subdivisions from enforcing several provisions of the newly-enacted Concealed Carry Improvement Act, though he did stay his decision for three days to allow Attorney General Letitia James to file an emergency appeal with the Second Circuit.

Across the United States, thousands of youths are lining up for gender-affirming care. But when families decide to take the medical route, they must make decisions about life-altering treatments that have little scientific evidence of their long-term safety and efficacy. On the two-hour drive back from the hospital, Danielle Boyer kept replaying the doctor’s questions in her mind. Was her then-12-year-old child, Ryace, hearing voices? Was she using illegal drugs? Had she ever been hospitalized for psychiatric treatment? Had she ever harmed herself? Ryace (pronounced RYE-us) was assigned male at birth, but by the time she was 4, it was...

The country has been put on notice that the chances of gas shortages this winter have risen markedly, prompting a contingency plan to prioritise heating. National Grid's Electricity System Operator (ESO) warned that planned three-hour power blackouts could be imposed in some areas, in the "unlikely" event supplies of gas fall short of demand. It revealed the measure in an update on the UK's state of energy readiness for the cold months ahead but it said that the risk of temporary power cuts could be avoided with help from the public. The report showed, under a base case scenario, that...

Louisiana State Treasurer John Schroder announced on Wednesday that the Pelican State will withdraw $794 million in treasury funds from BlackRock over its ESG green energy activism. Schroder announced that $560 million had already been removed from BlackRock and $794 million will be removed from the world’s largest asset manager by the end of 2022. “This divestment is necessary to protect Louisiana from mandates BlackRock has called for that would cripple our critical energy sector,” Schroder said in a statement. “I refuse to spend a penny of Treasury funds with a company that will take food off tables, money out...

Pembroke Park officials to hold special meeting ... PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. – As the clock ticks for Pembroke Park to secure police coverage before its contract with the Broward Sheriff’s Office expires Saturday, one potential option is now off the table. It also appears the town may be scrambling to get its startup in-house police department, scheduled to launch in 2023, up and running in mere days. If nothing happens, the south Broward town of about 6,000 people will have no police patrolling its streets. BSO deputies would only respond to emergency calls, as dictated by state statute, and could...

The show trial has begun in the prosecution of Darrell Brooks, Jr., who viciously mowed down onlookers with his SUV at the Waukesha, WI Christmas parade last winter. After three days, the trial has been nothing short of a circus, which seems to be Brooks’s (who is representing himself) strategy. On Day 1 of the trial, Brooks was removed from the courtroom several times by Waukesha County Circuit Judge Jennifer Dorow. Day 2 jury selection didn’t go any better. Now, on Day 3 in an apparent attempt to slow the trial down, Brooks claims to have Covid-19. “Frankly, I’m very...

Two weeks ago, attorney and legal commentator Preston Moore posted a video saying he was offered (but did not accept) hundreds of dollars from a group to attack Donald Trump and “Trump Republicans.” The group that solicited Moore is called the “Good Information Foundation,” and presumably, if Moore is telling the truth, this is common practice for them. Moore told Breitbart News, “They wanted me to use fear to manipulate people into voting blue, or into voting not Trump… And when they’re giving examples of the things they wanted me to say — don’t say ‘Trump and his allies,’ say...

Current Prediction: GOP: 30 Dem: 18 TBD (PA,NM)

The 1935 Hurricane was a disaster of incredible magnitude. It had sustained winds of 185 mph and a storm surge of 18' to 20'. To this day it's referred to as the Great Hurricane. It's surreal that so many natural disasters occur at night, and this Florida hurricane was no exception. It's impossible to try and imagine the extent of terror one feels when a storm rips and tears at everything around you. The rain, the wind, and the darkness pummeling and shrouding you. Debris flying, filthy water surging around and over you. Buildings being torn apart. The desperate screams...

When Russia seized Crimea in March, it acquired not just the Crimean landmass but also a maritime zone more than three times its size with the rights to underwater resources potentially worth trillions of dollars. Russia portrayed the takeover as reclamation of its rightful territory, drawing no attention to the oil and gas rush that had recently been heating up in the Black Sea. But the move also extended Russia’s maritime boundaries, quietly giving Russia dominion over vast oil and gas reserves while dealing a crippling blow to Ukraine’s hopes for energy independence. Russia did so under an international accord...

A Southwest Airlines pilot is suing the company, her union and a former colleague who pleaded guilty last year to dead-bolting the cockpit door during a flight and stripping naked in front of her. Christine Janning alleges that Southwest retaliated by grounding her after she reported co-pilot Michael Haak to the company and the FBI. Janning's suit also notes that Haak remained employed despite an alleged history of sexual misconduct and that managers disparaged her in memos. Janning also alleges that the Southwest Airlines Pilots Association conspired with the airline and refused to support her after the August 10, 2020...

Fresh off the successful color revolution coup by the globalists in Ukraine, American neocons saw their opportunity to push for a proxy war with Russia. Two of the most infamous and disgraced lawmakers in U.S. history – Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and now-deceased John McCain (R-AZ) – spread propaganda for the coming conflict while visiting a group of Ukrainian troops. “Your fight is our fight. 2017 will be the year of offense. All of us will go back to Washington, and we will push the case against Russia. Enough of Russian aggression. It is time for them to pay a...

Less than one month after armed FBI agents handcuffed and dragged Mark Houck, a pro-life activist and father, out of his home in front of his wife and children, the FBI raided another pro-life activist for his involvement in a peaceful protest outside a Tennessee abortion facility.FBI agents, with weapons drawn, swarmed Chet Gallagher’s home on Tuesday night, LifeNews.com reported, for allegedly violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, a law designed to keep people concerned with protecting unborn life away from abortion facilities. Gallagher was not home at the time of the raid so the FBI “demanded...

WATCH LIVE ON OCTOBER 06 | 9PM ET | C-SPAN Arizona Senator Mark Kelly (D) and two challengers in the state’s 2022 U.S. Senate Race, Blake Masters (R) and Marc Victor (L), participate in a debate hosted by Arizona PBS and the Arizona Citizens Clean Elections Commission.

@LindseyGrahamSC When I say I respect @elonmusk I’m not kidding. I’ve known him for years. He’s done amazing things by launching satellites to make America competitive in space and producing modern, high-performance electric vehicles. His Starlink system has also helped in Ukraine. My concern with his Russian “peace” proposal is he is legitimizing one of the greatest crimes of the 21st century by Putin. I do NOT want to see Elon Musk become the Henry Ford of our time: ▶️ Great industrialist. ▶️ Genius manufacturer. ▶️ Gives voice to evil in pursuit of peace. Russia must adhere to the boundaries...

​Republican Rep. Nicole​ Malliotakis has a 6 percentage-point edge over Democratic challenger Max Rose in a House district that comprises Staten Island and parts of south Brooklyn, according to a poll released Thursday. Malliotakis leads Rose 49% to 43% in a rematch of their 2020 race in which she knocked off Rose, then the incumbent, by slightly more than 6 points, a Spectrum News/Siena College poll found. The survey found that Malliotakis, running in a district that former President Donald Trump won by 10 points in 2020, is getting a boost from independent voters and a smidgen of Democrats who...
