MEXICO CITY — Mexico will offer escorted bus rides from southern Mexico to the U.S. border for non-Mexican migrants who have received a United States asylum appointment, the government announced Saturday. The National Immigration Institute said the buses will leave from the southern cities of Villahermosa and Tapachula. It appeared to be an attempt to make applying for asylum appointments from southern Mexico more attractive to migrants who otherwise would push north to Mexico City or the border. The announcement came a week after the U.S. government expanded access to the CBP One application to southern Mexico . Access to...

VIDEODon't believe your own lyin' eyes which saw disturbing images on the news of a gang of illegal aliens taking over an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado. The Aurora police department is telling us that did not happen. So what was the motivation for this pathetic gaslighting? Most likely Democrats panicked when they saw the result in Aurora of open borders and the effect it could have on this election so the police were forced to do the over the top gaslighting shtick in a desperate attempt to keep Orange Man Bad out of the White House where he is...

Governor Maura Healey (D-MA) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that former President Donald Trump’s proposal to have the government or insurance companies cover in vitro fertilization (IVF) was not believable because he “will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing.” Healey said, “You can’t take this seriously. I mean, this isn’t just a Republican — and by the way, I work well with Republicans — this is Donald Trump, who will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing. He caught some heat the other day, you know, and so he...

Egg showers have become common on social media, but a Brooklyn woman has gone a step further by throwing her eggs a birthday party every year. Lauren Martinez was well prepared for a birthday party in her backyard in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. She set out a tray of deviled eggs next to syringes filled with confetti; there were Eggo waffles, egg salad sandwiches, a quiche and onion dip with roe. There was also a bag of mini chocolate eggs and a tray of cupcakes, each decorated with white and yellow frosting in the shape of a fried egg. Right before the...

University removes Anglo-Saxon from module titles to 'decolonise the curriculum' By Ed Holt Published: 04:25 EDT, 1 September 2024 | Updated: 04:49 EDT, 1 September 2024 e-mail 125 shares 1k View comments A university has removed the term Anglo-Saxon from module titles in a bid to 'decolonise the curriculum.' The University of Nottingham is removing the expression from a number of courses, including History and English Literature, and replacing it with the more favoured 'Early Medieval English.' Academics have been campaigning to replace Anglo-Saxon with 'Early Medieval English' due to concern the former suggests a distinct, native Englishness.

Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) said on his week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that Vice President Kamala Harris can win in November because she has both “vibes and accomplishments.” Host Shannon Bream said, “We are just a few days out from people beginning early voting. Last I checked Kamalaharris.com still doesn’t have any policy prescriptions there. Is the idea to ride this out on vibes? Because they have been good, the momentum has been good for the ticket.”

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris both have spoken with the family of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, an Israeli-American who was discovered dead while being held hostage by Hamas in Gaza. NBC News' Gabe Gutierrez reports on Biden's latest thoughts on cease-fire negotiations.

[Catholic Caucus] Uncertain Trumpets: Cardinal Cupich and Pope FrancisFrom the Vatican's embrace of a socialist dictator to Cardinal Cupich's scandalous invocation at the Democratic National Convention, we find ourselves without leaders to guide us.Two events of recent days have scandalized me. Both were symbolic gestures and included the exchange of platitudes but also created an ambiguity about the Church’s teaching that is stretched to obfuscation. The first symbolic event was when the pope sent a new nuncio of Venezuela. In case you don’t pay attention to Latin American dictators, there was a presidential election in Venezuela that almost everyone but...

President Joe Biden issued a statement Saturday evening that he had “worked tirelessly” to secure the release of Hersh Goldberg-Polin and other murdered hostages, and claimed he would “keep working around the clock for a deal.” Biden has been on vacation for two weeks — first in Santa Barbara, California, and second in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. It is not clear how he would have been “working tirelessly” or “around the clock” while on vacation. His official statement follows, with emphasis added. Earlier today, in a tunnel under the city of Rafah, Israeli forces recovered six bodies of hostages held by...

"Real Time" host Bill Maher shared his own mixed reactions about Vice President Kamala Harris' CNN interview, offering both praise and criticism for the Democratic nominee. "I thought she did great. I thought she did fine," Maher began the panel discussion Friday night. "I don't know why we ever thought she was as bad as people thought she was. It was like Biden had that one bad night, she had a bad three years." Maher suggested that both Harris and her running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who was also present at the interview, were ""Real Time" host Bill Maher...

When election officials in New Hampshire decided to replace the state’s aging voter registration database before the 2024 election, they knew that the smallest glitch in Election Day technology could become fodder for conspiracy theorists. So they turned to one of the best — and only — choices on the market: A small, Connecticut-based IT firm that was just getting into election software. But last fall, as the new company, WSD Digital, raced to complete the project, New Hampshire officials made an unsettling discovery: The firm had offshored part of the work. That meant unknown coders outside the U.S. had...

A new TikTok trend has people posting their attempts to exploit a “glitch” in Chase bank ATMs that offers “infinite free money” — but quickly learning that a bank and its money are not so easily parted. Experts say the “glitch” videos look an awful lot like check fraud — one of the oldest scams in the book. Videos urging customers at the bank to take advantage of the “glitch” quickly took off online, prompting people to deposit fake checks for large sums of money. The glitch would credit some of the sham deposits to the customers’ accounts before the...

Recently released data points to a possible reason for the reported increase in abortions in the United States two years after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and ruled abortion is not a constitutional right. According to the latest data from the pro-choice Society of Family Planning's #WeCount research project, the monthly average of abortions between January through March was 98,990. The group found between 94,670 and 102,350 abortions monthly, with the national monthly total of abortions reportedly exceeding 100,000 in January for the first time since #WeCount began. States with the highest average number of abortions per...

California will not be creating a new state reparations agency this year, and at least one elected official is pointing the finger of blame at Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA). The state was considering a reparations bill that aimed to "repair harms from institutional racism," according to Politico, but its scope was greatly reduced on the final day of California's legislative session. The bill could have created a new Freedmen Affairs Agency, but was watered down to propose spending $6 million for a California State University study on the issue of reparations, and how to confirm whether someone seeking reparations is...
