In one his few public appearances since resigning in disgrace, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday night bashed the federal and state government’s response to New York City’s migrant crisis — and warned the issue is “going to hurt” Democrats politically. Cuomo — who left office in August 2021 amid sexual misconduct accusations that he denies — received a warm welcome from a packed house at the Thomas Jefferson Democratic Club in Brooklyn, where he gave a nearly one-hour speech that centered on the government’s handling of immigration.

Thursday on FNC’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” 2024 Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy predicted President Joe Biden’s own Democratic Party was looking to move him “out of the way.” He said Biden would be a “sacrificial lamb.” “Joe Biden, not looking so good,” host Jesse Watters said. “You saw the polls, you saw Pelosi twist the knife with Kamala Harris, how are things looking to you as a Republican?” “Well, the good news is, I was happy to see that I’m beating Joe Biden in that poll and doing just fine,” Ramaswamy replied. “Here is the reality, though, Jesse, is that...

[Order Jamie Glazov’s new best-selling and critically-acclaimed book: Barack Obama’s True Legacy: How He Transformed America.]Perhaps the greatest service of Barack Obama’s True Legacy, the recently published collection of penetrating essays on the Obama presidency by a number of knowledgeable and trenchant authors, edited by Jamie Glazov, is its contribution to collective memory.President Obama’s assault on Americans’ constitutional rights and protections as well as on the nation’s constitutionally defined governmental institutions and their respective authority entailed myriad particulars. It included undermining of First Amendment guarantees of freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and religious freedom. It extended to usurpation...

Scientists are using a series of DNA tests to identify the remains of missing service members and bring closure to generations of families. More than 81,000 Americans are missing from World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Cold War, the Gulf Wars and other conflicts, according to the U.S. Defense Prisoner of War/Missing in Action Accounting Agency.

Elon Musk has threatened to sue the Anti-Defamation League for some $22 billion over its slandering of him as an antisemite, which he alleges has tanked X’s advertising revenue. “Based on what we’ve heard from advertisers, ADL seems to be responsible for most of our revenue loss,” Musk says. Judging from my own feed, there are plenty of real-life antisemites who have taken to X, formerly Twitter, to participate in the #BanTheADL movement over this kerfuffle. It’s unsurprising that more open discourse brings out more bigots. That’s an unfortunate price of free speech. Clearly, those who campaign to “ban” accounts...

During an interview aired on Thursday’s broadcast of SiriusXM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show,” 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump stated that he doesn’t know who gave Dr. Anthony Fauci a presidential commendation during the Trump administration, and “I wouldn’t have done it.” Host Megyn Kelly said, “For years, you’ve been saying that the reason you didn’t fire Anthony Fauci was because he’d been there for a long time, that you would’ve taken heat, that it would’ve created a firestorm, quoting your words. Then, for the first time in May –.”

Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi has thumbed his nose at America and the Western world as he flaunted $6 billion in oil revenue that the U.S. had frozen through sanctions, and that now will be at his disposal.

He considered his life’s work to be ‘East of Eden’, a retelling of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel in California, which touched on his own...

I’ve taken a lot of issues with the government lately. Much of that is the bureaucracy, though, who ostensibly answer to Biden, but there’s no reason to believe they answer to him any better than they did to Trump.Then again, why would they need to actually answer if they’re going to do what he’d want naturally?So much of what we’ve seen that we’ve all found so disgusting has been at least tried to be kept under wraps to some degree or another.But this? This is telling.How bad has it gotten? Worse than you think.It’s so bad, the Biden White House...

Before I became an editor at Madison Magazine, I managed community programs at Pasture & Plenty on Madison’s near westside for a year and a half. One of the many hats I wore in that position involved wrangling spreadsheets. In fact, it was a hat I wore almost every day as I planned the restaurant’s virtual events. We used these spreadsheets to make sure our ticket prices accurately reflected our production cost. Each virtual event came with a kit, and among the easier things to itemize were the costs for individual ingredients. It took time to decipher the invoices from...

They must feed the monster to keep President Trump from winning a third consecutive presidential election.This week, the media in unison declared Joe Biden is too old to be president. Odd that they discovered this now because he has been a doddering old fool since suffering his aneurisms (plural)...
