She’s cracking. Gov. Kathy Hochul sounded off Wednesday about the “outrageous” price of eggs — jokingly telling New Yorkers to make chocolate cake with applesauce instead. The unprompted recipe suggestion came as Hochul, during a news conference in Midtown, slammed President Trump’s tariffs for driving up prices on everything from avocados to children’s toys. “And I’m done talking about the price of eggs — just give up eating them,” she said, drawing laughter. “It’s just outrageous, outrageous.” “You can make a really good chocolate cake with applesauce,” she added. “I digress, it’s also vegan.”

An activist group supporting Karmelo Anthony, who is accused of murdering fellow teenager Austin Metcalf at a Texas track meet, posted a bizarre POV-style video on social media showing their security team escorting the alleged killer from jail after he made bond. In the clip posted by the Next Generation Action Network (NGAN), a member of the organization’s security team shakes the teen’s hand and tells him to “get behind us” and “just stay close” as they walk past the media while leaving the Collin County Jail. One female reporter shoves a microphone in Anthony’s face and asks if he...

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is getting trolled on social media for posting a video insisting “the American people are with us” in opposing President Trump — while standing all alone outside the Capitol. Jeffries made the claim in a video posted on X – and several users mocked the New York Democrat over the fact that he had no supporters there to back up his claim. “Just got back to the Capital. Another day, another lie from these people who are out of control,” Jeffries’ video message begins, with the desolate east side of the US Capitol Building in...

President Biden appeared to suggest Friday that former Rep. Gabby Giffords (D-Ariz.) is either dead or divorced— and no longer his friend — in an apparent gaffe shortly after he told members of a Native American community that there is “nothing wrong with me.” “Thank you to Sen. Mark Kelly, a great friend — who also was married to an incredible woman who was my friend,” the 81-year-old president told the Gila River Indian Community, just south of Phoenix. Kelly, a Democratic senator from Arizona, has been married to Giffords — who is very much alive — since 2007. The...

Former President Bill Clinton busted out a bizarre and confusing impression of Donald Trump Thursday, during which he suggested that the GOP nominee might send him to “supermax” prison for life. Clinton, 78, made no real attempt at capturing Trump’s distinctive voice or mannerisms when he spoke as the 45th president during a North Carolina rally with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz – with the intention of conveying that he might be considered by Trump to be “the danger within.” “When you sign up, the oath says you promise to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and...

Pennsylvania voters are no stranger to the disastrous policies of the Harris-Biden administration. Pennsylvanians are paying nearly $1,000 extra per month for the same basket of goods due to Kamala’s inflation crisis. At the same time hardworking Pennsylvanians are bringing home real wages worth less and racking up more credit card debt. Gas and diesel prices hit historic highs thanks to the Harris-Biden administration’s crackdown on American energy and Pennsylvania fracking. More broadly, Pennsylvania has been on the receiving end of America’s lopsided trade deals that have allowed foreign adversaries to hollow out our industry. Countless factories have shuttered, and...

Self-styled “knucklehead” Tim Walz has revealed the absurd codename he lists Vice President Kamala Harris under on his phone since he accidentally ignored her call telling him he was her running mate. The lefty Minnesota governor told Jimmy Kimmel late Monday that Harris had tried to call him in early August to tell him he was her pick for the Democratic ticket — except he decided not to answer. “It was an unmarked number so I’m thinking it’s like a car warranty thing,” Walz told Kimmel to laughter from the studio audience. He only took the life-changing call when he...

Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate 'Coach' Tim Walz was criticized for his display of unbridled enthusiasm during their latest rally in Las Vegas. The duo had held their fifth rally in five days in the swing state late Saturday night in hopes to win over undecided voters - and Walz was pumped! In a video circulating on X, the Minnesota Governor can be seen joyously clapping as the crowd goes wild and he walks around onstage from the podium. As the music blasts through the speakers, Walz overflows with exuberance in the short clip. He happily waves to the...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. admitted that he had been picking up roadkill meat his “whole life” and that he had a “freezer full of it” at home in a revelation that comes just days after his bizarre Central Park bear cub dump bombshell. On Sunday RFK Jr. admitted he was responsible for leaving a dead bear cub in New York ten years ago after he picked up the animal he said a woman hit with her van. The presidential candidate published a video online talking to actress Roseanne Barr on Sunday, trying to get ahead of a New Yorker article....

Vladimir Putin once again appeared to be unable to control a twitchy leg during his lengthy interview with US right-wing journalist Tucker Carlson earlier this week. The Russian president spent half an hour of the sit-down chat on an almost uninterrupted ramble covering 1,200 years of Eastern European history. But some viewers were distracted by his apparent need to physically push down his knee to prevent his leg from moving around. It’s been an odd habit of Putin’s for a while – stretching back at least as far as September 2022, when the appendage started twitching during a speech in...

An MSNBC show took a bizarre turn when host Jonathan Capehart whipped out the Kleenex and started crying while reflecting on the memory of the January 6 riots live on air. The emotional episode unfolded while Capeheart was in the midst of promoting former DC police officer Michael Fanone's book on the three-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

As nativity stories go, it could hardly be more modern, more brave or more touching. Devoted couple Emily Patrick and Kerry Osborn are pregnant with each other’s babies, and will give birth within weeks of each other. In a pioneering case, the first of its kind known in Britain, the women swapped embryos – both fertilised by the same sperm donor – during IVF treatment. Now Emily, 38, a creative producer, will give birth to a son who is biologically Kerry’s at New Year. School teacher Kerry, 35, will follow in February, giving birth to a little boy grown from...

Mayor Eric Adams surprised several social media users after referencing the World Trade Center terror attacks in his description of why New York City is the “greatest city on the globe.” Adams spoke with host Dan Mannarino on WPIX-TV’s “PIX on Politics” on Sunday when the latter asked the mayor what word he would use to describe 2023. “New York. This is a place where every day you wake up, you could experience everything from a plane crashing into our Trade Center to a person who’s celebrating a new business that’s open. This is a very, very complicated city, and...

Team DeSantis is now praying for the destruction of our country. pic.twitter.com/7nbitHfX3D— NN (@NnPnemck) November 12, 2023 Ron Desantis’ strongest online supporter: pic.twitter.com/Md7cfmMsE4— johnny maga (@_johnnymaga) November 12, 2023The envy and hate DeSimps have for Trump and his base is repulsive.

A senior health official who is treating a legion of disturbed Russians warned: "Aggressive zombies will soon fill the streets of our cities." The doctor told news outlet Novaya Vkladka: "They will massively beat and even kill passers-by. "And how to prevent it, I personally do not know. ..."This special military operation [war] is like another tombstone on the grave. There are almost no doctors left," the health chief said. A large portion of Russian doctors are being forced to work in the war zone in occupied Ukraine, or face losing their jobs.

U.S. — After scanning thousands of photographs and cross-referencing facial features with political affiliation, researchers have discovered a bizarre connection between being liberal and have enormous, googly eyes."Why? Why do they all look so insane?," wondered lead researcher Dr. Michael Zorn. "Man, those are googly eyes. These pictures are going to keep me up at night."According to sources on the team, the shocking connection became immediately apparent as soon as they began reviewing pictures of liberals. "I honestly screamed when I flipped over the first picture and saw Hillary's psycho eyes," said assistant Jamie Reynolds. "I flipped to the next...

President Biden’s frequent use of archaic and odd expressions during public remarks has even stumped White House staffers, who are left confused at times about what the commander in chief is trying to convey, according to a new report. The 80-year-old president’s most recent bizarre utterance occurred last Friday during a speech on gun control at the University of Hartford’s campus in Connecticut. “God save the Queen, man,” Biden said to end his speech, baffling journalists and White House staffers alike. The White House has yet to explain what the president meant by the line. Olivia Dalton, the Biden administration’s...

Well if the great reset were to happen, would the subjugated be allowed to have pets, such as dogs or cats? Or would they say one can only have a guiena pig or hampster or goldfish.
