The statement, which was posted on X/Twitter, said that the "mediating countries" of Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, were condemning Israeli military action in the Gaza Strip, claiming that Israel was committing a "flagrant violation of international law," through the "targeting of healthcare facilities and medical infrastructure, and the resulting civilian casualties, including women and children." It added that Israel's actions were undermining and threatening "the path toward de-escalation." On Friday US President Donald Trump announced that the Board of Peace had reached an agreement...

New Yorkers, hold onto your wallets and brace yourselves for financial chaos. Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s minions in the Democratic Socialists of America are preparing to radicalize the state Legislature in January, when they take their newly won seats in Albany. A warning sign of their coming craziness appeared Friday, when Mamdani-endorsed Assembly candidate Brian Romero put up a GoFundMe page with an unusual request. He begged for handouts to cover his own rent and groceries for the rest of this year, until he’s sworn in to represent East Elmhurst, Jackson Heights, Astoria and other parts of Queens. Romero won the...

America’s homeowners associations are running out of money — and patience. Amid rising insurance premiums, drained reserve funds and increased safety measures in the wake of the Surfside condominium collapse, the country’s hundreds of thousands of homeowners associations are cracking down on delinquent residents. Even more startling, HOAs are skipping grace periods and handing delinquent accounts over to attorneys. **SNIP** Besides delinquencies, costs have been rising for HOAs in insurance premiums, staffing, lawn care and materials. The annual insurance premium at one Long Island HOA surged to $360,000 from $60,000. Plus, there’s the expense of meeting stricter safety measures, which...

Donald Trump accused US attorney Jeanine Pirro of having “folded like an umbrella” amid reports that he was considering removing her from her post. Trump criticized Pirro on Monday after she dropped vandalism charges against a former Olympian accused of damaging the recently renovated Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool. Trump nominated Pirro to serve as interim US attorney for the District of Columbia last year, and the Senate later confirmed her in August. Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office, Trump said: “Frankly, I think she choked because the judge was really vicious. Instead of going after the people that did...

In the midst of navigating a turbulent divorce last year, Claire learned she was pregnant. “It wasn’t the right time for me to have a child,” said Claire, who lives in Kansas City and agreed to speak on the condition that she be identified by her first name, citing concerns for her privacy and the charged political climate around abortion in Missouri. “But I knew at that point that I did want to have children in the future.” Claire is among about 3,220 Missourians who obtained medication abortions through telehealth from out-of-state clinicians in 2025 — up from roughly 880...

US President Donald Trump said Monday that talks with Iran would proceed in two phases and described the negotiations as Tehran’s “last chance” to sign an agreement. He said the first phase would focus on reopening the Strait of Hormuz, with the goal of having it “completely open” by Tuesday. “The second phase will be the denuclearization,” Trump said, adding that Iran “cannot have a nuclear weapon.”

At a roundtable discussion with Jewish leaders and community members from around the state, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said she will not attend the Michigan Democratic Party’s nominating convention in August because she does not feel safe to be there. “I feel like my presence isn’t going to be welcome. I don’t want to get chased around. I don’t want to get harassed. I don’t want to get yelled and screamed at. I don’t want to get booed off the stage, irrespective of what I’m saying,” she said at the Thursday event. “And I believe that if I go,...

As I wrote yesterday, Dr. Anthony Fauci was not the only one taking the Fifth yesterday on his record during the pandemic. The media effectively invoked the same privilege to avoid self-incrimination for their years of deifying the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Across the cable networks, hosts and guests were going into vapors as Republican senators pummelled Fauci over his COVID policies and the glaring contradictions found in his diary entries. Some, like Dr. Scott Ratzan, echoed Fauci’s own prior claim that any questioning of his judgment was an attack on science. (snip)...

MADISON, Wis. — For the fourth day in a row, Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway is calling for an end to the encampment on Williamson and Baldwin streets. The encampment follows the death of Corey Ruiz who was shot by a Madison police officer July 22. “For almost two weeks now, City of Madison staff and elected leaders have been on the ground and communicating to and through community leaders to peacefully resolve extremely complex, emotionally fraught circumstances that started with the police taking the life of Corey Ruiz," Rhodes-Conway said. "Countless efforts have been made to convince people that the...

I served as the chief information officer of the athletic apparel company Lululemon for eight years. Deploying new technologies, artificial intelligence included, was part of the job. But when I left, my successor was handed a new title: chief A.I. and technology officer. I winced — not about the person but about the pattern. Companies these days are quick to stick “A.I.” in news releases, in earnings calls, in product names, in job postings and in titles at the top of their organizations. The real question is what strategy sits behind the abbreviation. A title costs nothing, but it doesn’t...

It's a tough Sunday for the "Trump can't ..." crowd. For months, the mainstream media pounced on President Donald J. Trump, claiming he was physically washed up and incapable of even swinging a golf club. But on Sunday, No. 47 walked onto one of the toughest championship courses in the country, fired a 70, took the Senior Division title, and captured what he said was his 40th club championship title. A reported 2-under round on a championship course is the sort of result that stands out regardless of who posts it. If you thought the Commander-in-Chief would walk away humbly,...

The author of the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) postmortem on the 2024 election said in an interview published Monday that the report left out a key chapter — accusations that DNC Chair Ken Martin disputes. The 2024 DNC report’s author, Paul Rivera, told The New York Times that he included a chapter that raised whether former President Biden should have run for reelection, examined how former Vice President Kamala Harris and President Trump fared with different racial voting blocs, analyzed the party’s challenges with voter participation and suggested that top Democratic leadership was blind to the economic realities of everyday...

As concerns over law enforcement’s use of Flock Safety cameras intensify, there has been an increasing number of reports about police officers misusing the surveillance system for personal purposes. Officers all across the country have exploited the company's automated license plate reader cameras to track romantic partners or acquaintances in recent months. Despite claims that the cameras help police find and apprehend criminals, this new trend has raised even more complaints and criticisms about law enforcement agencies using the cameras with little to no oversight. CBS News reported that Habersham County, Georgia, Sheriff’s Office Deputy Christian Brewer was fired and...

A United States Postal Service worker was arrested last week after a search for a missing lottery ticket led investigators back to her, the Florida Lottery announced on Friday. Court documents said the victim purchased a Pick 4 ticket from a 7-Eleven in Tampa on June 14 and went to a Publix the following day to verify the winning amount of $2600. Later that day, the victim went to a United States Post Office and mailed the ticket to a relative in Fort Lauderdale to help cover funeral expenses, the documents said. Nine days later, when the ticket never reached...

On Monday morning, Columbia Journalism School reminded the public of how much it’s a waste of time and money as a black hole of far-left propaganda by declaring that they were “pleased to welcome” former CBS’s 60 Minutes correspondents Scott Pelley and Sharyn Alfonsi as “Journalists in Residence” for the upcoming academic year. Dean Jelani Cobb — who appears regularly on MS NOW to offer deranged, hate-filled hot takes against half the country — made the announcement as something they’re “excited and honored” to have happen, adding “[t]heir distinguished track records in investigative reporting highlight the amazing opportunity our students...
