A man was left bleeding on a subway platform Tuesday evening after a mob of 10 unruly teenagers kicked him into a moving train — and the response from Boston progressives might be even more shocking than the attack itself. The victim, who was targeted during a dispute over a fare card at Back Bay Station, suffered a severe head laceration after being shoved into the train as it pulled into the station. A nurse who happened to witness the horrific scene rushed to help, keeping the bloodied man conscious while a transit police officer applied pressure to his wound....

New York City’s new Democratic Socialist (communist) Mayor Zohran Mamdani is having trouble finding the means to fund his radical left-wing agenda so he is now going to an old favorite for Democrats – defunding the police. Apparently, Democrats have still not learned their painful lesson in this exercise in stupidity. To make matters worse, it has now been reported that Mamdani needs so much money because he is creating all kinds of new diversity positions in his cabinet, another lesson the left has not yet learned. Mamdani’s predecessor, Mayor Eric Adams, proposed at the end of his term that...

An SUV used by the security detail for Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee was stolen after a thief found the keys for the vehicle in her office, sources tell KTVU.

Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee’s vehicle was stolen Monday after someone broke into her office, according to the Oakland Police Officers Association (OPOA). The police union confirmed that someone tampered with the door of Lee’s office and stole the keys to her city-issued vehicle. The suspect drove away in Lee’s vehicle, the OPOA said. A day later, on Tuesday, the stolen vehicle was recovered in Vallejo. The Oakland Police Department (OPD) confirmed that a city-owned vehicle was stolen from Oakland City Hall on Monday and recovered “hours later.” Neither OPD nor the OPOA specified the location of where in Vallejo it...

Socialist extremist plans for Los Angeles have been exposed – just as their champion Nithya Raman launches her bid to be Mayor. In a chilling document, the Democratic Socialists of America, of whom Raman is a member, detail their “Program for Los Angeles”, outlining a commitment to disarming police, ending fossil fuel use, closing jails, raising taxes and de-criminalizing drugs. They also vehemently oppose the 2028 Olympics and even want to seize golf courses and convert the land to public housing. Raman, one of three DSA members on LA City council, is an outspoken advocate of defunding the police and...

We have another video masterpiece of peace and urban harmony from Chicago, otherwise known as America’s largest open-air shooting gallery. While Mayor Brandon Johnson continues to rail against ICE agents rounding up criminal illegals in his dystopian city, four gang members opened up on a rival’s car shortly after noon just across town from hizzoner. While the shooters only perforated their intended target in the butt-tocks, they did successfully kill the man’s girlfriend with their fusillade of lead. Thankfully and miraculously, the bangers with the blasters somehow missed the toddler in the back seat. Gabryel Ayers, 26, was driving the...

New York City hasn’t had a trash pickup for 1/3rd of Mamdani’s term. New York City would smell worse than it does if it weren’t so cold. And if it weren’t so cold.&br>

SCOTT JENNINGS: Why are Democrats more committed to demonizing law enforcement than in defending you, law-abiding citizens? And now another clear example from New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani, who recently made a hospital visit, not to see a police officer, but to see the man who stabbed a police officer with a knife. Here's Cut14. NEW YORK CITY MAYOR ZOHRAN MAMDANI: And as you said, I spoke with the Chakraborty family, and I visited Jabez in the hospital, and there is, no family should have to endure this kind of pain. JENNINGS: That audio you heard there, that's the...

The New York City Police Department released body camera footage showing the moment an officer shot a mentally ill man who was allegedly charging him with a knife amid calls from Mayor Zohran Mamdani for mental health treatment instead of criminal charges. Jabez Chakraborty, 22, was holding a large kitchen knife and charged at officers who responded to an emergency call from his family in Queens on Jan. 26, according to the NYPD. The footage, released by the NYPD on Tuesday, shows an officer entering the living room of the home, where Chakraborty was allegedly brandishing a knife. Officers are...

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani decided to throw his cops under the bus in the non-fatal shooting of Jabez Chakraborty, a 22-year-old man, who charged officers while wielding a large knife.

In December, Marvin Morales‑Ortez walked out of a Fairfax County, Va., jail a free man. He shouldn’t have. Morales‑Ortez was in the country illegally; he was in jail on serious charges, including for a violent assault and a firearm offense. Those charges were dropped. He was released. Within 24 hours, police say, he murdered a man. This was not bad luck. It was policy. Fairfax’s Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano has openly promised to limit or avoid “immigration consequences” when charging criminals. In other words, his office will treat illegal immigrants more leniently than US citizens. Descano’s policy directs his prosecutors...

Iryna Zarutska was butchered to death on a train in Charlotte by a career felon with 14 prior arrests. Her death was the direct result of leadership failures and bad policy. Jimmy Kimmel never mentioned her name, much less cried on camera about it. These people are sociopaths. They don’t care about human life. Their emotions aren’t real. They aren’t even capable of experiencing real human emotion at this point. It’s all a game to them. It’s all performance. Kimmel isn’t just a bad comedian, he’s a bad person. Rotten to his core.

A new bill proposed by Democrats in the Virginia state legislature is raising concerns regarding the removal of minimum prison sentences for various violent felony crimes. Within days of Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger being sworn in, members of her party introduced a flurry of amendments looking to end mandatory minimum sentences for various crimes within the state.

Within weeks of Zohran Mamdani being sworn into office in New York City, homeless encampments have popped back up in Manhattan after he vowed on the campaign trail to stop clearing them away. The democratic socialist, who took office on the first of the year, said in December he would stop the destruction of homeless encampments in the city - a hallmark of the previous administration led by Eric Adams. 'They are simply pushing New Yorkers who are living in the cold to another place where they will live in the cold,' Mamdani said at the time. In the 23...

The late Colin Powell, in an interview about the difference between governing and campaigning, invoked his long experience and humor to describe it this way: “I think any human being with an IQ over 40, who is a mammal, loves governing more than campaigning.” It’s a shame that Powell, a top military leader and a secretary of state who died in 2021, isn’t available to counsel Zohran Mamdani. If he were, perhaps he could get through to New York’s new mayor, who appears to be so in love with campaigning that he can’t kick the habit. How else to explain...

911 heard MULTIPLE DEATH THREATS directed at me by a mob, MPD pretended for 20 MINUTES that they were responding Then they told me I was on my own, and HUNG UP This city needs to be taken under FEDERAL CONTROL After about two minutes on scene, my security began wanting to bring me out of there due to the immediate threats of violence. I tried to shorten this video as much as possible but it’s tough given all the BS that unfolded. As soon as I dialed 911, one of the leftist screamed “Minneapolis Police are on OUR side!”...

Following the inauguration of Socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson, it was revealed that the Seattle Police Department issued an internal email announcing officers “are not going to enforce drug use,” instead, they will refer all open consumption cases to failed diversion programs. According to the message originally obtained by Homeless outreach group We Heart Seattle, “effective immediately,” officers are being instructed to refer all open drug consumption incidents to the diversion program LEA-PDA (Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion–Purpose. Dignity. Action, a diversion initiative connected to community-based behavioral health and outreach services. Critics warn the move will likely accelerate the city’s ongoing...
