Students at the University of Colorado are in for some rocky news. Boulder, the beautiful college town the CU calls home, is one of the most dangerous in America, according to a new study. One the other hand, the Gators aren’t as perilous as they look. Gainesville, home of the University of Florida, is one of the safest college towns. The study from Lesson Maker Pro evaluated 174 college towns — big and small — across seven safety metrics, tracking crimes from Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) violations and hate crimes to robberies and aggravated assaults. Researchers culled data from...

...when it’s time to do chores around the house, I turn on Netflix, plop my son in front of the TV, and let Disney babysit for me. He is, after all, four years old.. I didn’t realize how much this was affecting him until we passed by a toy ship from his favorite show, Jake and The Neverland Pirates. “It’s The Mighty Colossus,” my son told me, not so much speaking as shrieking. “I need it!” I said no. He erupted. He couldn’t understand why we couldn’t afford to buy every toy we saw. Soon he was in tears, thrashing...

A Long Island Democratic congressional hopeful has made it clear in a recent interview that he is not ashamed of his past bondage modeling photos uncovered by The Post last month. Chris Gallant, 37, the Democratic nominee running against Rep. Nick LaLota (R-NY) in the NY-01 district says he chose to pose for the racy photos almost 17 years ago because he was into it — not because he was manipulated — and he bragged that he thought he looked great, he told The New York Times. “I mean, all my friends know I’m kinky” as hell, he told the...

Socialists have started winning because young voters were indoctrinated rather than educated.Link to ChatGPT Video Transcript Summary The terms of the controversy over higher education hardly changed for three or four decades. Conservatives complained of political activism freezing out serious scholarship. Liberals rejected that criticism as politically motivated and argued that Marxist professors do little harm because students see through and laugh at their ideas. But the recent spate of electoral wins by socialists has confirmed the conservative camp’s worst fears. Those ineffective Marxist professors, it seems, have changed the educated electorate so profoundly that hitherto unelectable socialists can now...

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed has carefully curated a family narrative for the campaign trail that erases his terror group-linked birth mother for his white stepmom — even though he remains close to his “ummi,” The Post can reveal. Biological mom Fatten Elkomy, 66, a psychiatric nurse at New Horizons Community Support Services in Columbia, MO, was born in Alexandria, Egypt, and previously worked for the Islamic American Relief Agency — a designated terrorist organization — according to 2010 federal court documents naming her. While in Egypt in the 1970s, she was an activist with the Muslim Brotherhood —...

The shooting unfolded in a special needs classroom, Bend-La Pine Schools Superintendent Steven Cook said at a news conference today. The gunman was a special needs student in that school in the past, he said. “There were students of different ages in the classroom at the time of the shooting,” Cook said.

Some Americans are crying poverty with a $1,500 iPhone in one hand and an $8 Starbucks latte in the other. They say groceries are unaffordable, but somehow the restaurants are packed, airports are crowded, and the neighbor just pulled into his driveway with a brand-new $90,000 SUV. Apparently, we're one bad economic report away from bankruptcy and one Instagram post away from booking another trip to Cabo. Consumer confidence is in the basement. Consumer spending apparently didn't get the memo. In September, the Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index fell to 81.9. Yet it has been reported that consumer credit and...

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A Center City woman was arrested after allegedly refusing to move out of the path of a delivery robot.

Marvin tells Action News she was protesting the use of delivery robots...

Chances are, you haven’t heard of this case out of Loudon, Virginia. Why, you might ask? Well, likely because it involves a male teacher parading around as a woman, who threatened to murder and then reportedly “eat” his student. In other words, more trans-related violence that the mainstream media loves to sweep under the rug. In a case that’s received little media attention, a cross-dressing teacher has been found guilty of making credible threats to murder his own pupils, and then even eat one. Hadyn Dollery, who goes by the name ‘Sophie’, faces 25 years in jail. https://t.co/Pn4c95vyYX — ripx4nutmeg...

The teenage gunman who shot and killed three children and a teacher at an Oregon elementary school on Thursday opened fire at a pickup truck before storming into the school, witnesses say. The unidentified 16-year-old was carrying a shotgun when a man in a red Toyota Tacoma pickup truck idling in Silver Rail Elementary School's parking lot noticed he was heading toward the school, The Source reported. Concerned by what he was seeing, the driver then decided to confront the teenager, who in turn fired numerous shots at the civilian and his truck, shattering a rear window and leaving six...

Democratic Senate hopeful James Talarico was ruthlessly fact-checked by a Catholic voter during a Texas town hall Wednesday after he claimed the Bible doesn’t take a stance on abortion. Talarico, a Christian seminarian and state lawmaker, attempted to convince the self-described “one-issue voter,” Jody Hunt, that his pro-choice position is compatible with her faith because “the Bible is silent on the issue of abortion.” Hunt, respectfully, wasn’t buying it. She allowed Talarico to finish his point that “certain policy levers” — absent banning the procedure — can reduce abortions nationwide, before her mic-drop moment. “I just want to add that...

The move comes as anger has erupted across American college campuses Cornell University suspended parties at fraternity houses on campus for the rest of the academic year as turmoil at the Ivy League school continues over a former student’s rape allegations. The school will hire additional support staff and task New York State Police with investigating sexual assault claims on campus for the duration of an independent review of Cornell’s policies, President Michael Kotlikoff said in a statement Tuesday. That review, announced earlier, will be led by former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates. “These measures will provide time for a...

Should we or shouldn’t we celebrate Columbus day? Every year the debate rages around this time whether the expansion of European civilization into the western hemisphere was a positive or negative development in human history.Of course Columbus himself was a complex figure, and there is much to love or hate about him depending on one’s point of view. The leftward side of the debate points out Columbus’s greed, ambition, pride and at times cruelty.And yet on the other side , one must admire the bravery, tenacity, and Columbus’ willingness to venture at great risk. Columbus also had a pious side...

Former state trooper John Nagel pointed the finger at his opponent, Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and the Democratic Party for allowing Somali American gang-linked violence to escalate in the Twin Cities. Residents of Eden Prairie and surrounding Twin Cities suburbs have been left fearing for their safety after a string of gang-related incidents this month, including the shooting of two teens outside an Eden Prairie High School football game and more than 100 shell casings recovered in a Bloomington neighborhood. "Where is Ilhan Omar in all of this?" Nagel, a Minnesota native who spent 30 years as a state trooper,...

The fake substitute teacher is accused of separating Rufus King students by race and gender; making racist remarks that include the N-word and derogatory comments toward white and Asian students; playing rap music in class; telling white male students they were the type of people to become school shooters; asking students if they were gay; asking students for a vape or “weed”; asking whether students were “virgins”; speaking positively about going to jail; making a graphic sexual comment to students…and more.

WASHINGTON — Michigan Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed repeatedly refused to answer whether he considers Iran or Israel to be the “greater threat to the United States.” When presented with that question during his debate Thursday against Republican Senate hopeful Mike Rogers, El-Sayed ripped it as a “ridiculous hypothetical.” “Here’s what’s happening right now: our ostensible ally in Israel has lobbied us to go to war with Iran,” El-Sayed, a Democrat, replied. “We have watched as Iran has responded by bombing all kinds of countries in the Middle East and then choking off the world’s energy supply.” “This is a situation...

A Wisconsin congressional candidate has been arrested on hate crime charges after he went on a vulgar caught-on-camera rant against an Israeli dad with his young son in the car — after he was triggered by an anti-Hamas bumper sticker. Matthew Arndt, 54, allegedly cut off the 41-year-old father on a road in the Milwaukee suburb of Mequon Thursday morning, flipping him the bird and cursing at him before pulling into a gas station, where the dad followed him and began filming the explosive encounter. “Do you want to tell me something?” the father asked. “Yeah, you’re a f------ piece...

Employees at the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago are unionizing over their working conditions, claiming their benefits have been cut and workloads are increasing just four months after the center opened in June. Workers circulated a letter to staff Wednesday announcing their intent to unionize, complaining about “increasing” workloads “vague responses” from administrators to a list of complaints they’d raised, the Chicago Sun Times reported. Some of the complaints suggested that the $900 million presidential center could already be facing financial trouble. Such complaints have led to a “high turnover rate,” with exiting employees “taking with them their institutional knowledge...
