Gas prices in California have had a history of being higher than in many other areas of the US, but recently they have risen to well over $6 and even $7 a gallon in some parts. This far exceeds the current national average of $3.96, per Y-Charts. The gas price hike has caused many California residents to make hard choices, sometimes having to choose between filling up their tank or buying lunch. San Diego residents at a local 7-Eleven spoke to FOX News Digital about how rising gas prices, have been affecting their lives. “Filling this thing up, [it’s] like...

On Thursday’s edition of WABC’s “Sid & Friends in the Morning,” New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) reacted to Target closing one of its locations in the city due to theft by stating that more work needs to be done, but shoplifting is down and “people who want to wake up every day praying that Eric Adams the pilot fails and crashes, you better wake up, man. You’re a passenger on this plane called NYC. You better hope I land this damn plane and stop hoping and praying that I fail. The city is back. We’re resilient.” Host Sid...

As residents arrived at New Life Community Church for a “public safety town hall” on Monday, they were invited downstairs to meet with “local leaders.” “It was all very political in defense of [Mayor Brandon] Johnson’s agenda, as I kinda expected." “It took forever because it was as if they were trying to convince the crowd that alternatives to policing are the solution to the crime wave,” recalled the attendee. “They also had the police wait 30 minutes before making their introductions. It was as if there wasn’t a violent crime wave sweeping many parts of the city, and it...

Democratic Rep. Dan Goldman of New York was sharply corrected by a witness during a hearing on Thursday regarding House Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. Goldman asked former Republican assistant attorney general for the Tax Division, Eileen O’Connor, about whether an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) memorandum regarding Hunter Biden — reported to the House Oversight Committee by whistleblowers —recommended his prosecution, suggesting that it did not. O’Connor responded by correcting Goldman about the memo’s text, saying that the term “discretion” used did not suggest that the investigation was flawed. “[T]he whistleblowers reported that it was a ‘discretion’ finding...

Americans’ views of the economy worsened in September, according to recent data from Gallup. The survey giant found that only 20 percent of U.S. adults say economic conditions are “excellent” or “good.” Thirty-two percent said they are “only fair” and 48 percent say they are “poor.” Last month, 23 percent of respondents called economic conditions “excellent” or “good.” Thirty-five percent said they were “only fair” and 42 percent said they were “poor” at the time. Americans’ outlook for the economy also soured, according to the latest data, with 73 percent saying “economic conditions in the country as a whole” are...

If they figure out a way to get Trump to bow out, Biden will follow. https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1706435541099504051 Running Newsom in 2024 is the perfect bait. Half of conservative social media influencers are gay, so they will have a hard time attacking him because they will think he's cute. The other half of the MAGA inc crowd will not be able to resist attacking him for being white and call out his "white privilege." Newsom could single handedly end the Republican Party, but if the donors think installing another Bill Clinton in the White House can save America from its demographically induced...

In a time when we think we’ve seen the apex of Biden’s intentional destruction of the nation, we woke up Wednesday to see a new low: a 95-year-old Korean War veteran was booted from his nursing home to make room for the illegal immigrants pouring over the borders at record levels. Frank Tammaro, wearing a Korean War Veteran hat, claims Island Shores, the nursing home where he used to live, gave him six weeks to pack his bags and vacate his room. “The thing I’m annoyed about is how they did it, it was very disgraceful what they did to...

DiFi has died.

It costs a staggering $83,140 to send a student to Princeton University, and that’s just for one year. Four years of this august Ivy League school will set you back a cool $332,560, and just think: for that kind of money, you could have bought a brand-new Corvette convertible every year and had some spare change left over. But Princeton has its benefits: you may not be able to tool around in the glorious sunshine with the wind blowing your hair back, but for all that dough, Princeton will take your thoughtful, intelligent son and turn him into a prancing,...

So, dear reader, this is definitely an interesting interview. This author was a fan of Bill O’Reilly’s show for years, and even when we disagreed with him, we always respected his views and found him interesting to watch. Also, he has something in common with Carlson: They both were more or less fired by Fox News despite dominating their time slots (the same slot, in fact). So, to see both of them sit down and to talk even about O’Reilly’s experience being fired was something we looked forward to. First, we will give you the time stamps: (00:32) Getting fired...

Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson has blamed "irresponsible immigration policy and a failed integration" for the violence. He is taking several steps to help stem growing gang activity. "We're going to hunt down the gangs, and we're going to defeat them," Kristersson said during a televised address on Thursday evening. The Scandinavian country has been wrestling with rampant gang crime for years. National Police Commissioner Anders Thornberg said it now poses a "serious threat to the safety and security of the country." "Sweden has never seen anything like this. No other country in Europe is seeing anything like this," Kristersson said....

BREAKING: Sen. Dianne Feinstein has passed away at the age of 90

A German member of parliament says his account with Deutsche Bank-owned Postbank has been closed for political reasons, claiming his being a politician from the right has made him a target for debanking. Alternative for Germany (AfD) member of the Bundestag and party co-chairman Tino Chrupalla claims to have been debanked, telling national television: “On Friday my account was cancelled by Postbank because I am an AfD member”. This is part of a process of excluding and discrediting people outside the political mainstream, he claimed. Postbank is owned by Deutsche Bank, one of the largest global banks. The AfD is...

On Thursday’s broadcast of “CNN News Central,” New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) responded to a question on those in the state who say New York has done enough to handle migrants by stating that New York is “not going to compromise who we are as a state with the Statue of Liberty in our harbor.” But “in New York City, we hit our capacity. So, we’re asking other areas to embrace these individuals.” Hochul said, “I will be very clear about the values of New Yorkers, we have always been a place that has welcomed immigrants. … So, we’ll...
