A coalition of 24 Republican attorneys general have signed on to a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries calling for a floor vote and passage of H.R. 38, known as the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act.

This is no way to keep up with grandma. Cruel scammers are cheating elderly people out of millions of dollars with a new high tech scam that uses AI to find their grandchildren’s voices on TikTok and then use the sounds to make phony phone calls designed to trick the seniors, cops on Long Island warned Friday.

Is democracy on the line in this election? Democrats have made that their main theme of this election cycle, to very little avail when it comes to the presidential election. Polls show that not only has it not helped Kamala Harris, some polls think she and Joe Biden present a bigger risk to democracy than Donald Trump.

New Yorkers are fortifying their homes with panic rooms and bullet-proof doors like never before over fears about crime, migrants and national turmoil — and it’s not just the city’s elite partaking in the trend. “Not every [customer] is an ultra-rich stockbroker — a lot of them are just people, middle-class kind of people,” said Steve Humble, founder of the home-defense contractor Creative Home Engineering. “I’d say the pandemic really kicked off an uptick. Business was really good throughout the pandemic time, and it really hasn’t slowed down,” said Humble, who specializes in top-of-the-line secret doors disguised as bookshelves, fireplaces,...

In an unlikely alliance, Christian family values groups and an LGBT activist have signed a petition against a proposed Connecticut bill they say could make pedophiles a protected sexual minority.The bill, HB 6638, would revise the language of the state’s anti-discrimination statutes.The current definition of “sexual orientation” in Connecticut law excludes protections for “any behavior that is a sex offense crime.” An update to the law would remove that wording.“If Governor [Ned] Lamont signs it, a person who admits they are a pedophile—even if they haven’t acted on it but just admit it—they could just go to an appeal board...
