A Manhattan parking garage attendant who was shot twice while confronting an alleged thief at his business was charged with murder after wrestling away the weapon and using it to fire at the suspect. The nightside worker, Moussa Diarra, 57, was slapped with assault and criminal possession of a weapons charges in the Saturday incident, which occurred at around 5.30am. The attendant saw a man peering into the car windows on the second floor of the West 31st Street garage, reported the New York Post. Thinking that the man was stealing, the attendant brought the suspect outside and asked what...

A left-wing rally in support of reduced penalties for carjackers in Washington, D.C. was disrupted this week after a man attempted a carjacking in broad daylight. To clarify, no, this is not a scene from an episode of “Seinfeld.” This gem of comedic gold actually happened in our nation’s crime-riddled capital Wednesday afternoon outside of Union Station. The National Desk, owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group, reported a group called Hands Off DC held a rally outside the station to share its anger at the U.S. Senate. Lawmakers were voting to reverse a rogue city council move that would have...

You may have heard the term “ESG” popping up in the news lately. Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) disclosures provide important metrics to understand how a company’s practices could impact future financial performance. CalPERS uses an ESG framework to assess potential risks to our investments. For example, under the “social” framework, there is tremendous value in an investor’s ability to verify a company’s data security, as breaches can cause litigation, loss of customer loyalty, and other impacts to profitability. This kind of information is critical to fulfilling the CalPERS mission of achieving a high rate of return to provide retirement...

A motion to the court filed on behalf of the Hollywood star - a Democrat and vocal Donald Trump critic - says she 'must' be taken off the case. Baldwin accidentally shot and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins after being handed a gun with live ammunition on the set of his film Rust in October 2021. Reeb, a Republican, kicked off the prosecution sensationally last month, flatly declaring that if not for the actions of Baldwin and others on set 'Hutchins would be alive today.' Now Baldwin's team alleges Reeb's appointment is a violation of New Mexico's constitution which prohibits the...

Clown World shared a video of two trans-women playing totally and completely embarrassing caricatures of girls (giggling, wearing sunglasses, talking like 12-year-old girls) and Dean Cain was good enough to point out the reality of the video. Oh yeah, one of the ‘girls’ is Dylan Mulvaney, the trans-activist Biden welcomed to the White House. I think… neither of you are girls. https://t.co/PIE9KvpcMV — Dean Cain (@RealDeanCain) December 19, 2022 Sadly (not sadly), the video is gone. But Dean’s comment still stands. For whatever reason, the latest Lefty mantra is that men who pretend to be women, who think they’re acting...

you might be a lot more likely to get into a car crash. Or at least those are the findings of a new study published this month in The American Journal of Medicine. During the summer of 2021, Canadian researchers examined the encrypted government-held records of more than 11 million adults, 16% of whom hadn’t received the COVID vaccine. They found that the unvaccinated people were 72% more likely to be involved in a severe traffic crash—in which at least one person was transported to the hospital—than those who were vaccinated. That’s similar to the increased risk of car crashes...

In some of my earliest coverage of the Ukraine war, I noted that just comparing defence spending between countries was extremely difficult and not all budgets are created equal. Today following a Patron vote, I'm going to try and unpack that a little more by diving into the world of defence economics and production 101. In doing so, we're going to try and answer some questions. Why does America dominate the global arms market? How can a 5th generation fighter be cheaper than those decades older than it? And why do so many nations chose to buy in arms rather...

I’m getting so tired of the Burleigh’s here ignoring history, so here’s the actual economic statistics of the two Presidents. Reagan came to office in January 1981, with the 30-year mortgage around 13.15%, while Trump took office in January 2017 with the mortgage rate at 4.08%. In Reagan’s day, the Federal Reserve did not pump ludicrous amounts of money into the economy with asset purchases; in fact, the opposite was true. The Fed was tightening so tightly that Reagan lost the midterms badly because of it. Reagan had to endure two years of Volcker’s policies to fight inflation, so let’s...

In conducting its overreach, the government has solidified in the hands and minds of millions of American patriots, and populists the world over, the very message Jones has been spreading. Infowars founder Alex Jones has finally been forced to pay for his conspiracy theories. A jury has levied civil damages of $965 million on him for speculating that the Sandy Hook shooting was “staged with actors” in a ruling that may change the nature of defamation law nationwide Few are willing to defend Jones’ remarks about Sandy Hook, and for good reason. His abhorrent mischaracterizations may have inculcated in his...

Lawyers for Sandy Hook families, who were recently awarded a billion dollar compensatory judgment against radio host Alex Jones, are now seeking the “highest possible“ amount in punitive damages totaling $2.75 trillion in hopes to take Jones off the air forever.The cartoonishly large amount, which supposedly factors in 550 million “social media exposures” that Infowars would have generated on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook in the three years following the mass shooting and multiplies it by $5,000, was reported by Bloomberg News Friday.Sandy Hook families asked a Connecticut judge to order Alex Jones to pay $2.75 trillion in damages in addition...

Five months into the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there remains a startling lack of understanding by many western policymakers and commentators of the economic dimensions of Putin’s invasion, and what it has meant for Russia’s economic positioning both domestically and globally. A common narrative has emerged that this is a “war of economic attrition which is taking its toll on the west,” given the supposed “resilience” and even “prosperity” of the Russian economy. These widely cited narratives are wrong. Far from being “ineffective” or “disappointing,” international sanctions and voluntary business retreats have exerted a crippling effect over Russia’s economy. ......

There is "absolutely no sign" that Russia wants to reach a deal with Ukraine, and it could not be trusted even if one was on offer, Boris Johnson has told the Commons.

Russia's parliament on Tuesday approved a bill to toughen punishments for a host of crimes such as desertion, damage to military property and insubordination if they are committed during military mobilisation or combat situations. The bill, passed in its second and third readings on Tuesday by the lower house of parliament, the Duma, comes amid debate inside Russia about a possible mobilisation

Humiliation for Putin's troops is continuing as they begin to abandon the major city of Melitopol in the face of Kyiv's lightning counter-offensive. The city's pre-occupation mayor said that Russian troops were pulling out of the area in Ukraine's southern Zaporizhzhia region. Mayor Ivan Fedorov wrote on Telegram that Russian troops were heading towards Moscow-annexed Crimea. He said columns of military equipment were reported at a checkpoint in Chonhar, a village marking the boundary between the Crimean peninsula and the Ukrainian mainland.
