Two female tourists from Mexico were violently shoved onto train tracks by a random woman at a Manhattan subway station early Monday, the NYPD and sources said. The victims, ages 28 and 27, were pushed off the northbound F platform at the Delancey Street/Essex Street station on the Lower East Side just after 2:15 a.m., according to cops. The women had been waiting for the train when the suspect suddenly approached and shoved one of them onto the tracks in an unprovoked attack, police said.

Russia, Belarus competitors will not hear their national anthems at Games The neutral collective of athletes won its first gold medal at the Paris Olympics on Friday. Ivan Litvinovich was not allowed to float down the River Seine on a boat during the Games' opening ceremony a week ago—just like all 32 athletes from Russia and Belarus whose Olympic team identity has been made almost invisible because of their nations' military invasion of Ukraine. When standing on the top step of the podium, Litvinovich was prohibited from hearing the Belarus anthem, the AP reports. Playing instead was a nondescript, wordless...

WASHINGTON (AP) — White House senior adviser Gene Sperling is leaving his administration position to work with Vice President Kamala Harris’ election campaign as the Democrats step up efforts to challenge Donald Trump on policy issues in November’s election. Sperling will be a senior economic adviser to Harris’ policy team. The shift was revealed by White House officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters. Sperling served both Bill Clinton and Barack Obama as director of the White House National Economic Council. President Joe Biden Biden tasked him with managing his $1.9 trillion pandemic aid package, a...

Vice President Harris will hold her first rally alongside her yet-to-be-announced running mate on Tuesday night in Philadelphia, her campaign said, as part of a five-day, seven-state blitz for the Democratic ticket. Harris spent the weekend interviewing prospective running mates, including Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D), Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D), Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.), Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. She will announce her choice no later than Tuesday, when she and her running mate will embark on a five-day swing through the seven battleground states expected to decide November’s election. Harris and her vice...

Steering America into a hellhole.Barring a possible but unlikely “October surprise,” Kamala Harris will be the Democratic nominee for president. When Democratic string pullers decided that Joe Biden was unfit to run again, Harris became the obvious—if not best—choice.Her disapproval ratings are telling. While 38% approve of Harris, 52% disapprove, and a detailed report by the David Horowitz Freedom Center spells out a legacy that would make the late Joe Stalin proud. Just a few of the taxpayer disasters that Harris has in mind are that health care is a fundamental right and “Medicare for All” should be the policy....

Money stolen from your accounts might be funding pro-illegal advocacy. The Center for Gender & Refugee Studies has spent years battling on behalf of illegal alien invaders. Earlier, Freedom Center Investigates exposed how the lawfare group housed at a University of California law school provides full service open borders support. “During Trump, my CGRS colleagues and I expended a tremendous amount of energy challenging the anti-immigrant policies that were issued on what seemed like an almost daily basis,” Karen Musalo, the CGRS founding director, boasted. The Center also offers a database of “expert witnesses” willing to testify on behalf of...

Russia continues to pay a high cost in troops and equipment during its full-scale invasion, according to Kyiv, the recent figures of which outline losses of several dozen artillery systems—as well as two warplanes. Sunday's update by Ukraine's military noted how two aircraft had been among the equipment losses Russia had suffered over the previous day. This followed what Ukraine's General Staff said was a drone strike on the Morozovsk airfield, a Russian military base in the Rostov region near the Ukrainian border, which is home to Sukhoi Su-27 and Su-34 glide bombers. Kyiv said that the strikes hit warehouses...

Kamala and the Secret Service look on in disbelief. Joe Biden recently climbed back up the stairs of an airplane he wasn’t supposed to be on, as Kamala Harris and the Secret Service watched in disbelief. How long will this go on?

U.S. stocks fell sharply on Monday as part of a global market sell-off centered around U.S. recession fears. Japan’s Nikkei 225 plunged 12% in its worst day since the 1987 Black Monday crash for Wall Street. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 1,068 points, or 2.7%. The Nasdaq Composite lost 6%, and the S&P 500 slid 4.2%. Fears of a U.S. recession were the main culprit for the global market meltdown after Friday’s disappointing July jobs report. Investors are also concerned that the Federal Reserve is behind in cutting interest rates to bolster an economic slowdown, with the central bank...

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin appeared to rebuke a senior Pentagon official after she reportedly approved a plea-deal for 9/11 terrorist mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and two accomplices that became a massive embarrassment for the Biden-Harris administration. After the Pentagon announced the deal, which was approved by senior Biden administration official Susan Escallier, a retired Army brigadier general, Austin revoked the deal, issuing a public memorandum that said he was now taking charge of the case. The Pentagon issued a statement Friday with the revocation, along with the memorandum. It said: Today, Secretary Austin signed a memo reserving for himself the...

After Trump’s appearance today with the National Alliance of Black Journalists, yet another feat of daring no other politician would attempt, it was time once again to watch the media narrative machine do its thing. It would be an all-day affair, blanketing Twitter, then finding its way to the entertainment trades, the high-minded legacy press, and, eventually, the New York Times’ front page. This is supposed to be the most important thing happening in America — in the world. Stop the presses: TRUMP SAID SOMETHING! The entire front page of the New York Times, on a day when Israel and...

FROM NASHVILLE. NASHVILLE, Wednesday, Aug. 3, 1864. Gen. STONEMAN's raid along the Macon Railroad met with a great success in cutting the rebel line of communication, and thus completely isolating Atlanta. But I regret the necessity to add that one division of cavalry, while returning, met with a serious disaster. The Macon Railroad was torn up for eighteen miles, the rails twisted, the ties, tanks, bridges and depots burned, and the road rendered useless for months to come. Returning by way of Newman, captured a large wagon train, filled with much valuable private properly belonging to rebel officers, and among...

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) Commander General Michael Kurilla is in Israel Monday on a pre-planned visit that would not have happened had President Donald Trump not made the decision to include Israel in CENTCOM. The U.S. divides military policy geographically, with different countries assigned to different areas based on their location. But Israel, while in the Middle East, had long been included in U.S. European Command (EUCOM), in deference to Arab hostility towards the Jewish state. Pro-Israel groups had argued that being in EUCOM put Israel at a disadvantage, because U.S. military officials in the Middle East had closer ties...

Wild West Bank Part 2: BOTH SIDES NOW 👥 On the same day I went to Ramallah (aka “Palestine”), I returned right to Tel Aviv and asked Israelis the EXACT same questions. The answers were day and night… If we want peace in the Middle East, which I believe is still possible one day, we must first acknowledge how much indoctrination there has been on one side. They’ve been taught peace is a curse word and that Jews are subhuman. “Palestine” can’t be free, until there’s freedom of thought.

A vocal anti-Israel activist, who has made several donations to Rep. Rashida Tlaib's, D-Mich., House campaigns, mourned the assassination of a top Hamas leader on Wednesday, saying his "martyrdom is not in vain." Zahra Billoo, a disgraced former Women's March leader and the executive director of Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in San Francisco, took to social media after it was reported that Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated in Tehran, Iran, prompting Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei to vow "revenge" for the attack.

The Hubble Telescope captured this extraordinary image of the galaxy LEDA 857074, driven by the detection of the supernova SN 2022ADQZ.
