🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(2/2/26)[Prayer]A New Study For A New Year: PersonalitiesGenesis 21:1-821 And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did unto Sarah as he had spoken. 2 For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him. 3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac. 4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him. 5 And Abraham was an hundred...

One after the other, they're going down. It seems our U.S attorneys and other prosecutors have been busy! Georgia, Massachusetts, California, Michigan, Louisiana, and Oklahoma have all seen arrests recently of Democrats in various positions from state legislatures to city councils. Way to go! First, to the great state of Georgia, where they’ve been arresting Democrats left and right, evidently. “Georgia Democrat State Rep. Dexter Sharper was charged with defrauding the federal government by falsely claiming unemployment while he earned income.” Next, up to crazy liberal Massachusetts where a one-time “Bostonian of the Year,” Monica Cannon-Grant is up on public...

Last fall, when New York’s business community warned that the election of a self-described democratic socialist as mayor would trigger an assault on the city’s economic engine, we were waved off as hysterical. The press assured us that Zohran Mamdani was "evolving," that his rhetoric would soften, that we should focus instead on his vague promises of "affordability." That reassurance evaporated almost instantly. Barely two weeks after his swearing-in — amid lofty rhetoric about the "warmth of collectivism" — the Mamdani administration unveiled its real agenda. Sam Levine, the newly installed commissioner of the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection...

"Physician, heal thyself!” Jesus said to those gathered in the synagogue at Nazareth. The admonition was aimed at hypocrisy and moral blindness — a warning that those who presume authority must first examine their own conduct. Today, someone needs to repeat those words to health care professionals who have allowed Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) to corrode their ethics and professionalism. That warning applies just as much to nursing as it does to medicine. Nursing emerged as a modern profession in the mid-19th century under the leadership of Florence Nightingale. In 1893, the Nightingale Pledge codified the profession’s moral foundation, committing...

When the mother of a black Texas middle schooler claimed in 2021 that a group of white students made her son drink urine, media outlets from NBC to CNN and ABC covered the story. “Texas authorities investigating allegations of racism and bullying of a 13-year-old by his classmates during sleepover,” a CNN headline blared. Nearly five years later, we’re learning it was a giant hoax. None of the outlets that covered the case have written follow-up stories despite the lurid (and defamatory) nature of the allegations... Last month, a Texas district court judge in Collin County, in suburban Dallas, ordered...

The cold is sticking around for a little longer. Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow after emerging from his den in Pennsylvania on Monday morning — signifying six more weeks of winter. If the world-famous prognosticating groundhog had not seen his shadow, it would’ve meant spring was near.

When we talk about political violence, we almost always assume that its perpetrators are young men. That makes sense: men are statistically more likely to engage in physical aggression and get arrested for violent crimes at higher rates. At the same time, many are dealing with rising unemployment, declining educational achievement, and growing social disengagement. Given all that, researchers may reasonably assume that young men are driving greater tolerance for political violence. New data complicate that assumption. A recent survey by the Network Contagion Research Institute at Rutgers found that under certain conditions, women were more likely than men to...

National Association for Gun Rights staff member Zackary Clark successfully registered a potato with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives during 2026 under the new rules, as a silencer. The new rules, starting on January 1, do not require the payment of a tax to make and register a silencer. Silencers are classified as “firearms” in the National Firearms Act (NFA). The video recorded by Zackary shows what happened to the potato when it was used as a silencer. A fair amount of energy goes into blowing a potato into small pieces. Almost certainly, the noise from the...

A hedge fund manager who has been sued by his own mother over an unpaid mortgage he took out on her house has declared himself bankrupt — just months after The Post exposed his wild spending spree in the south of France. Jason Ader — a 59-year-old former activist investor who a decade earlier regularly appeared on CNBC and helped unseat Marissa Mayer as CEO of Yahoo — quietly filed for personal bankruptcy in Miami on Dec. 22, according to court documents reviewed by The Post. He owes roughly 2 million in debts, he admitted in court filings and a...

None of what we have seen over the past few weeks — not the shooting deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis at the hands of federal officers, the seizure of children by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol agents, the callous disregard of civil rights and liberties from an increasingly authoritarian administration — is supposed to be happening in America. But it is. American citizens are being arrested and brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights — recording ICE, standing nearby or simply being the “wrong” color in the wrong place. The Trump administration has labeled these...

Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu of Boston, Massachusetts, is going viral for saying that every human on earth has the “legal right” to come to the U.S.A. Wu’s comments have resurfaced and are once again gaining thousands of comments from outraged Americans. In a video clip of an interview from March, Wu is seen saying, “Every single human being has the legal right to come to the United States and seek shelter.” Of course, federal immigration law states that hopeful immigrants cannot just arrive on America’s shores, but must file for visas or asylum while still in their own country (or...

A foul-mouthed Amazon delivery driver was caught on a doorbell camera criticizing the customers, claiming they would buy slaves if the tech giant sold them. The unidentified worker began his rant as he approached the front door of a home in the Detroit suburb of Redford Township, Michigan. “Got a million multi stops because these people out here in Dearborn Heights, they can’t go anywhere and get their own f------ s--- so now I’m sitting out here delivering a million packages to a million and f------ one houses,” the Amazon worker said, according to video obtained by ABC 7 Detroit....

The video covers federal charges against Detroit's 36th District Court Judge Andrea Bradley-Baskin (age 46), along with three others (including her father Avery Bradley, guardian Nancy Williams, and Dwight Rashad). They face allegations of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering in a multi-year scheme. Key details from the case (as reported in the video and linked to U.S. Attorney’s Office announcements): The group allegedly embezzled funds from vulnerable, incapacitated individuals under guardianship/conservatorship in Michigan's probate system. Specific examples include using ~$70,000 from one ward's estate to buy an ownership stake in a local bar, and diverting money to...

First a foot of snow, then the plowed-in cars, and now frustrated New Yorkers are furious over mountains of trash piling up on city streets, as collection has been reduced by January’s massive winter storm. A reporter from the New York Post took in the “unsavory sights” of the aftermath and documented heaps of garbage bags and cardboard boxes littering the sidewalks as the Department of Sanitation was still playing catch-up in several neighborhoods since the winter onslaught. Garbage is not the only problem, as snowplows have tended to deposit high banks of the white stuff against cars parked along...

Meanwhile, some bus crew escalated the matter to higher authorities, and Sasiraj was temporarily suspended.In a shocking instance of caste discrimination, a bus driver attached to the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) Mettupalayam branch-1 in Coimbatore district, allegedly cleaned and smeared the branch manager’s office floor with cow dung on January 23 after the latter, who belongs to a Scheduled Caste (SC), received a transfer order. Following the incident, a senior TNSTC official from Coimbatore region suspended the driver, S Sasiraj, who also serves as secretary of the LPF union affiliated with the DMK, on charges of caste discrimination...

The video marks the first time Trump has launched such a blunt, direct attack against these antisemitic influencers, who regularly criticize the president's foreign policy and his close ties to Israel. The move signals Trump's willingness to confront elements within his own political coalition over their antisemitic rhetoric, even as he seeks to consolidate support across the Republican Party.

A car plowed into a house on the 5300 block of Fields Court in Fairfield Friday. A caller reported to police around 6:24 p.m. that the car was speeding on Hancock Drive before it drove through a fence and into the back of the home. “When personnel from Fairfield Fire and officers arrived, the vehicle was trapped under a lot of debris and there was clear structural damage to the two-story residence,” Fairfield PD said. “A child inside the residence was struck by debris and extricated from the home by members of Fairfield Fire Department, but sustained no injuries.” The...
