The final four-team College Football Playoff selection process has come under remarkable scrutiny after the controversial decision to include one-loss SEC champion Alabama over undefeated ACC champ Florida State, and now some powerful people in the Sunshine State are getting involved on an official basis. State Attorney General — and Florida Gators fan — Ashley Moody has launched an anti-trust investigation into the College Football Playoff to see if it engaged in anti-competitive conduct. "I'm a lifelong Gator, but I'm also the Florida Attorney General, and I know injustice when I see it," Moody said, via the Tampa Bay Times....

While Social Security is set to increase by 3.2 percent in 2024, many seniors are worried about how the limited inflation adjustment will keep them afloat. In a new report from Atticus, a majority of seniors voiced dissatisfaction with the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for 2024. In total, 62 percent of the 400 Americans over the age of 62 in the survey said they were unhappy with the payment bump. "About that 3.2 percent COLA increase for 2024, well, it sounds good on paper, but, honestly, it's not quite cutting it for seniors," Christopher Hensley, financial adviser and the president of...

The Council on American Islamic Relations held a news conference Tuesday calling for the firing of a doctor at Johns Hopkins Hospital. CAIR took issue with comments Dr. Darren Klugman made on social media regarding the Israel-Hamas war. The council also wants the Maryland Board of Physicians to revoke his license. "Dr. Klugman's role requires him to care for all children. His views tell us he views Palestinian children as subhuman. These words reflect hate," CAIR Maryland director Zainab Chaudry. Chaudry is has come under fire for her own social media posts. She was temporarily suspended from the Commission on...

The NDAA funds Pentagon objectives such as training and equipment. The Act was approved by a bipartisan majority of 87-13 in the Senate. For the last 61 years in a row, Congress has advanced the must-pass defense budget measure. “At a time of huge trouble for global security, doing the...

waste, It turns out that the $86 million that the US Department of Health and Human Services paid to CorDx for COVID test kits may have been wasted. Genabio Diagnostics, a COVID testing manufacturer, filed a complaint with the FDA accusing CorDx of selling a counterfeit version of Genabio's antibody tests. Secretary Xavier Becerra recommended that "we should not panic over the possibility that these counterfeit test kits will result in harm. Genuine test kits show high rates of false positives and false negatives as was demonstrated by Elon Musk taking four tests on the same day--two showing he did...

The media are trying to pick the GOP nominee for us just like they did with John McCain. (Remember how great that worked out?) Once again, their pick is the whiny warmonger -- this time, Nikki Haley.No wall and guaranteed to lose! What's not to like? (Democrats: Please! Anyone but Gov. Ron DeSantis!)This week, headlines hyped the results of a Wall Street Journal poll showing Haley beating Joe Biden by 17 points!Does anyone think that Haley will beat Biden by 17 points? The only presidential election decided by anything close to that in the last half-century was in 1984, when...

Former President Donald Trump issued an urgent call for action to his fellow Republicans over what he called "the biggest story of the year," namely a survey showing that 20 percent of mail-in voters admitted to committing at least one kind of voter fraud in the 2020 election. The Heartland/Rasmussen poll, released on Dec. 12, suggests concerning levels of voter fraud in the 2020 election, bolstering President Trump's longstanding claim that he was cheated out of a victory amid an explosion in mail-in ballots combined with state-level moves by the courts that made it easier to cheat.The new survey shows...

For months, the Biden administration, along with the mostly-compliant media, have been saying that inflation is now under control; they’ve been bragging that wages are now outpacing inflation, and they don’t understand why ordinary people aren’t praising Biden’s economic policies.If wages are outpacing inflation, then why don’t people have money left over after paying their bills? From CNBC just a few weeks ago:As of October, 60% of adults said they are living paycheck to paycheck, according to a new LendingClub report. The figure is unchanged from last year.And why are certain debts, especially those for credit cards, breaking debt records?...

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu is not dreaming of a white Christmas — party, that is. An invite concerning the Boston mayor’s holiday party, specifically for “Electeds of Color,” was mistakenly sent by an aide to all members of the Boston City Council. Some 15 minutes later, that aide, Denise DosSantos, who serves as the mayor’s director of City Council relations, blasted up a follow-up email flagging the embarrassing error. “I wanted to apologize for my previous email regarding a Holiday Party for tomorrow,” DosSantos wrote. The white councilors were not supposed to receive an invite. “I did send that to...

Milwaukee County, Wisconsin’s Democrat district attorney refused to probe more than 350 potential cases of illegal voting, a new report found. After visiting the Milwaukee Election Commission offices, the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) discovered that DA John Chisholm, a soft-on-crime leftist, has declined to “review at least 354 referrals for potentially unlawful same-day voter registrations.” Like several other states, Wisconsin authorizes same-day voter registration, which allows residents to cast their ballot on the same day they register to vote. Despite Democrats’ claim that this policy is a win for “democracy,” its major flaw is that it, as noted by...

It’s not a coincidence that Claudine Gay survived both poor reactions from donors and allegations of plagiarism, a chief sin in academia. The board of Harvard unanimously voted to retain the university’s president Claudine Gay despite her public refusal to say that calls for genocide of Jewish students would contradict Harvard’s code of conduct — and subsequent allegations of past plagiarism.“Our extensive deliberations affirm our confidence that President Gay is the right leader to help our community heal and to address the very serious societal issues we are facing,” the Harvard Corporation announced in a statement on Tuesday.Gay kept her...

Claudine Gay and Harvard’s board wants everyone to know that they are committed to free speech. Their allies have circled the wagons around Gay’s claim that calls for violence against Jews and intimidation tactics fell under the penumbra of the First Amendment, while Gay and Harvard shut down an event shortly afterward that featured a conservative who had criticized Gay. Gay’s Harvard believed in free speech so much, in fact, that they responded to a New York Post inquiry about Gay’s alleged plagiarism by siccing their “defamation counsel” on the newspaper. The NYP revealed this episode last night, in which...

Around 300 soldiers from the Cambridge Springs-based 2nd Battalion, 112th Infantry of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard have been called up to be deployed.
