    The annual cost of New York’s public health insurance for the needy is set to shatter $100 billion for the first time — and the unrelenting migrant crisis could soon trigger even more of a spike, documents show. The state’s Medicaid program currently enrolls 7.8 million residents, with the staggering price tag for 2023-24 set at $108 billion, according to New York budget estimates. That’s nearly $10 billion more than last fiscal year’s $99 million budget. And beginning in January, the program will start providing medical coverage to an estimated 25,000 undocumented immigrants age 65 and over who are ineligible...
  • New Bidenomics Slogan! Real earnings less sucky for women than men!

    REAL MEDIAN WEEKLY EARNINGS GROWTH FOR MEN was -4.45% In April 2023, while the last reading prior to Covid under Trump was 6.674% YoY in February 2020. So, Bidenomics isn’t even back to Trump levels for men. Women, on the other hand, did show a gain since Carter, but still lower than the last month before Covid struck. Women’s real median weekly earnings growth YoY since Q2 2021 are down -5%. \ So, Bidenomics has been less sucky for women than men.

    CLAIM: Footage shows former President George H. W. Bush dying on live television. AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. The video clip being misrepresented on social media shows Bush falling ill at a 1992 dinner with Japan’s prime minister. The late Bush died in 2018 at 94. THE FACTS: A conspiracy theory video circulating on social media is falsely purporting to show video of the 41st president dying — nearly three decades before his actual death.

    Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) presidential campaign is now beset by a steady stream of leaks of message coordination communications, yet another serious setback for the flailing candidate.The latest leaks to Semafor show that the DeSantis campaign’s senior-most levels oversaw the creation of highly controversial Twitter meme videos that were then quietly distributed by campaign staffers out to anonymously-run Twitter accounts they called “anons” before being amplified by the campaign. One such video, which featured the use of a Sonnenrad behind DeSantis in it–a Sonnenrad is an image often used by Nazis–led to the ouster of one DeSantis aide named Nate...

    (Daily readings from the USCCB)“Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears ought to hear.” Matthew 13:43 This passage concludes Jesus’ explanation of the Parable of the Weeds in the Field. Recall that in this parable there were good seeds sown in a field. The Sower is the Son of Man, Jesus, and the seed He sows are the children of the Kingdom, which includes all those who are in a state of grace. The field is the whole world. Thus, Jesus is saying that He has sent His followers, each...

    On Mondayy’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “José Díaz-Balart Reports,” NBC News Correspondent Steve Patterson acknowledged that cuts in oil production are “one of the biggest contributing factors” in the recent spike in oil prices, but another major factor is “long-term, we’ve been sort of putting this stuff into the air” and creating climate change. Patterson stated, “It’s the height of summer driving season with that dreaded summer blend and crude oil prices are a bit different with production being cut worldwide, that is one of the biggest contributing factors, but certainly, so too is the heat. It is, because, specifically, these...

    “Platitudes”, that’s the best word to describe what the DeSantis campaign previously claimed would be a substantive economic policy outline from the Florida governor. As the policy was unveiled in New Hampshire yesterday, I watched it all {Direct Rumble Link Here} to see what it would cover and how DeSantis would deliver it. Summary, major fail.First, I must admit to coming to any economic policy outline as presented with a laser focus. You tell me you have an economic policy, and you have my full attention. Why? Because the economic policy of a federal candidate will ultimately determine monetary policy,...

    Credit: SABC News Twitter Screenshot Apartheid was never truly abolished in South Africa, the races were just reversed. One could even argue it is worse today. On Saturday, Julius Malema, the leader of the far-left Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF) party, led a huge crowd in chants of “Kill the Boer.” The term Boer is an Afrikaan and Durtch referring to white farmers. As the Gateway Pundit has reported previously, white farmers are facing potential genocide thanks to “leaders” like Malema. His supporters say they are ready to kill or die for the white-owned land. The video shows Malema dancing...

    The US Embassy in the Dominican Republic is in the news for a recent press release where it alerts that those seeking fiancee visas need to present what they call “appropriate proof of relationship.” The Embassy highlights: “Please DO NOT SUBMIT intimate photographs (such as photos of the couple in bed together, not fully clothed, or engaged in intimate displays of affection. Such “evidence” is neither appropriate nor convincing to establish proof of a relationship, and may even be detrimental to your credibility.” Local press had a field day.

    The Department of Education is withholding federal funding from hunting and archery programs in schools, citing a bipartisan law passed last year that tightened restrictions around gun purchases in the wake of a deadly school shooting in Texas. A spokesperson for the Department of Education said that the 2022 Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, passed in the wake of the massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, requires the department to withhold certain grant funds from archery and hunting programs in schools, according to Fox News. "The prohibition went into effect immediately on June 25, 2022, and applies to all...

    BELEN, N.M. (KRQE) — A 6-year-old boy’s lemonade stand was burglarized last week in Belen, New Mexico, while he was trying to raise money for a good cause.

Connor Brock had a goal: raise $250 to donate to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as part of their “Lemonade Stand in July” challenge. His parents were also raising money for Connor’s benefit: “Connor has autism level two, and we’ve used the lemonade stand not only to benefit St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital but also to teach Connor responsibility,...
