“Get over yourselves.” That is the intemperate advice from two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton who has scolded voters complaining about the likely prospect of a Donald Trump versus Joe Biden rematch in the 2024 presidential election campaign. She delivered her blast Monday night during an interview on The Tonight Show with host Jimmy Fallon, saying: Get over yourselves, those are the two choices … And, you know, it’s one of, like, one is old & effective & compassionate, has a heart & really cares about people, & one is old & has been charged with 91 felonies. I don’t...

Mayor Eric Adams did not take kindly to one of his constituents wagging her finger at him and criticizing him for the city’s new rent increase rules Wednesday, likening her behavior to that of a plantation owner. The showdown took place at a community conversation event Adams hosted at Gregorio Luperon High School for Science and Mathematics in Washington Heights. In footage from the meeting, Adams can be heard asking the woman to stand up after she interrupts him to call out that he “raised the rent.” Adams’ administration came under fire last week, when the Rent Guidelines Board voted...

During Wednesday’s “Newsroom” on CNN, political commentator Bill Kristol argued that people should realize there was no Thanksgiving last year given the COVID pandemic before they complained about inflation causing soaring food prices this year.

It must be great fun being a liberal these days. You can complain about literally anything. And no matter how silly your complaint is, everyone will cave in to your demands. I think I’ll give it a try. In the Elton John song “Island Girl” there is this line: “Island girl, island girl, island girl...Tell me what you wanting with the white man's world”. I find that line to be deeply offensive and hurtful. And so I have two nonnegotiable demands.

President-elect Donald Trump is challenging the Obama White House over its public investigation into the hacks of Democrats during the election. “If Russia, or some other entity, was hacking, why did the White House wait so long to act?” he asked on Twitter on Thursday. “Why did they only complain after Hillary lost?” Trump’s comment challenges the president’s motivation for the investigation, after Obama repeatedly promised a smooth transition of power in the White House. Obama defended his decision during an interview with the Daily Show’s Trevor Noah: The reason that I called for a review is really to just...

HOUSTON, Texas --A tidal wave of illegal immigrants along the U.S.-Mexico border has caused federal housing and processing facilities to become overwhelmed and overcrowded. As a result, officials have resorted to a makeshift housing center in Nogales, Arizona, especially for the surge of thousands of children who were part of the influx. They are being transported there via plane. Many of the minors at one facility -- which only opened on Friday -- are reportedly being sickened by the food -- and throwing the food in the trash.

Artificial insemination costs vary widely across Sweden, forcing some same-sex couples to pay significantly more than heterosexual couples who save thousands of kronor by bringing their own sperm. “We think that it is discriminatory that there are different prices for insemination,” Ulrika Westerlund of the Swedish Federation for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Rights (Riksförbundet för homosexuellas, bisexuellas och transpersoners rättigheter - RFSL) said to the Aftonbladet daily. RFSL would like to see a development of uniform regulations which apply across the country. “But that would be complicated and would require the state to go in and regulate. However, we...

'Muslim Madonna' - Brace for another muslims' riot, bloodshed Feb 24, 2006 Muslim pop singer Deeyah has irked the Muslim world with her provocative new music video that shows her stripping off a burka to reveal her bikini-clad body. Deeyah claims, the video, What will be? deals with Muslim women's rights and female empowerment, as it also features Muslim women who have fought for freedom of expression. The singer, who was born in Norway but moved to the UK after her act alienated her from the Muslim community, has been forced to cancel performances and hire a team of bodyguards...

Argentina yesterday officially complained to Britain about a Foreign Office warning to British tourists about the dangers of visiting Argentina at the time of the Summit of the Americas.

For many years now--perhaps since her very birth--America has served as a role model for the rest of the world. We aren't perfect by any means, but we have set the very standard for human rights and equality. ..... So when I read this story on Drudge yesterday, I wasn't surprised. Let me give you the headline: India Quake Survivors Complain of Slow Aid It's amazing--and rather unfortunate--that we can now confirm that every part of our society is being mimicked by others! Not only our free elections, or our equal rights for all, or our representative government are being...

A man who was made subject to an Anti-Social Behaviour Order for putting up a sign saying “porking yard” in his pub car park, because it was offensive to Muslims, today described the court action as “a joke”. Leroy Trought, 42, was given a two-year Asbo at a hearing at Bristol Magistrates’ Court on Monday. Magistrates ordered him to change the wording of the “porking yard” sign at The Swan With Two Necks in St Judes, Bristol, to “parking yard”. He was ordered not to display any signs that may be threatening, abusive or insulting at the pub, which is...

Venezuelan Information Minister Andres Izarra is stomping his feet and crying because the mean ol' US media is being so nasty to Marx-crazed tyrant Huga Chavez. According to Izarra, continuous publication of information disclosing false data and making baseless accusations in US media has prompted the Executive to conclude that Venezuela is "indeed" facing a "media offensive," a "dirty campaign or war similar to the one launched by Otto Reich in the 80's

Check it out. Jesse Jackson, Jesse Jackson Jr., Hillary Shelton, and several others in congress and other organizations are whining about the 2004 election. They're disputing the Ohio results. They just can't give it up and can't face reality. As I'm watching this, all I hear is violins playing. Jackson is on the verge of tears!

PARIS - France's power company asked people to use less electricity Tuesday as some plants were forced to cut output during a Europe-wide heat wave that has fanned wildfires and killed dozens of people. One French medical expert said at least 100 Parisians have died of heat-related illnesses — a claim that if proven would quadruple the number of deaths blamed on the heat wave. With river temperatures hitting record highs, some plants that use water in production are cutting back, and six have stopped altogether. Plants are constrained by regulations limiting the amount of hot water they can discharge...

Said White House Spokesman Ari Fleischer 'Ultimately, we will see what the French decide to do. They have have their position known at this point. But as the President engages in consultations, as the President presents the facts and the President listens, the President will also lead.'He rejected comments by a key United States defense advisor, Richard Perle, who reportedly said France was not the ally it once was.

There are eight Barnes & Noble stores in Manhattan. The one I frequent is not on the usual tourist route, but stragglers from all over the world do end up at the Café Espresso of the Broadway and 82nd Street store. I often meet them there. It's easy to open up a conversation with tourists from afar. They're usually eager to meet someone who is not obliged by his trade--taxi driver, waiter, hotel clerk--to talk to them. Besides, being inside a bookstore seems to reassure visitors that they're safe, that people they meet there are not Mafia hit men, ax...
