    The family of a US tourist who died in Mexico last year under suspicious cricumstances are demanding President Biden and the State Department intervene in the death investigation. Shanquella Robinson died while vacationing with friends in San Jose del Cabo in Mexico in October 2022. Shortly afterward videos emerged of her being viciously beaten by other members of her party. However, the FBI have declined to bring any charges in the case. “We were hopeful that once the FBI got engaged, that they would respect this American citizen, this young black woman who, based on the video, did absolutely nothing...

    I just had to post a link to this video. Anyone who can do those Johnny Cash lyrics has practiced a lot. Robinson has a natural connection with the true Patriots across the heartland of this country. And, his conservative credentials can be traced back to his 2018 statement at his county commissioner's meeting where he stood up for the 2nd Amendment rights of the citizens of our nation.

    The city Department of Transportation struck out on this one. Big Apple DOT officials botched a Queens road sign for the Jackie Robinson Parkway, misspelling the color-barrier-busting baseball Hall of Famer’s name. The sign at Myrtle Avenue and Forest Park Drive features a likeness of the Brooklyn Dodgers’ great — atop the words “Jakie Robinson Parkway.” “It’s embarrassing,” Glendale native Kira Incantalupo told The Post on Sunday. “Poor Jackie Robinson. “That shouldn’t have happened,” said Incantalupo, 37. “I mean, nobody wants to have that. It’s a memorial for somebody. It should be corrected.”

    Friday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson heralded President Joe Biden’s speech in Philadelphia the night earlier as an “urgent wartime address.” According to Robinson, it was “significant” that Biden called out his predecessor and “MAGA Republicans. “The speech last night to me sounded like a president delivering a wartime address,” he said. “And indeed, Joe Biden sees this as a battle for the soul of our country. It’s a battle for the preservation of our democracy. To me, the significant thing was, yes, he called out Donald Trump — but he also called out the MAGA...

    CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — In 2008, when the Right Rev. Gene Robinson of New Hampshire was excluded from a global Anglican gathering because of his sexuality, Desmond Tutu, who died Sunday, came to his defense. “Gene Robinson is a wonderful human being, and I am proud to belong to the same church as he,” Tutu wrote in the foreword to a book Robinson published that year. Robinson, who in 2003 became the U.S. Episcopal Church’s first openly gay bishop, said Sunday he has been trying to live up to those words ever since. “It was quite surreal because I was...

    The Twitter executive responsible for blocking stories about Hunter Biden's laptop is one of several advisers to the Aspen Institute's disinformation commission. Yoel Roth is one of several questionable advisers to Aspen's Commission on Information Disorder, which on Monday released its much-anticipated report. Commission members include Katie Couric, who recently acknowledged that she edited comments on National Anthem protests out of a 2016 interview with Ruth Bader Ginsburg to preserve the justice's reputation with liberals. Another commissioner, Rashad Robinson, helped fuel actor Jussie Smollett's hate crime hoax. Commission members' censorship of legitimate news stories could undercut their lofty mission. The...

    RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - North Carolina Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson on Tuesday again declined to apologize for remarks he made in June criticizing sexual education in public schools and likening gay and transgender people to “filth.” Robinson held a news conference to respond to criticism earlier in the day from Democrats, including three LGBTQ lawmakers. He pushed back on calls from some Democrats and LGBTQ groups for him to resign and said he could separate his personal views about sexuality and spirituality from his daily role as the state's highest GOP executive officeholder. “My spiritual beliefs about transgenderism and...

    The outspoken North Carolina politician was attacked for saying that graphic gay and transgender material has no place in public schools. North Carolina’s Mark Robinson got launched in politics when he spoke his mind about our right to bear arms. Since then, he has continued to refuse to back down when he runs afoul of the ever-growing list of leftist shibboleths. Most recently, cancel culture came for him when he referred to graphic gay and transgender material in school libraries as “filth.” True to form, while defending every person’s right to equal treatment under the law, Robinson made it clear...

    Tuesday, MSNBC contributor and Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson voiced his hope that former President Donald Trump’s legal team faces “the most severe punishment possible” for alleging voter fraud in the 2020 election. Robinson argued on “Morning Joe” that Rudy Giuliani, Lin Wood, and Sidney Powell all had the “responsibility” and “duty” to not push “out-and-out lies” and “comment section nonsense” about election fraud. “Thank heavens for the federal court system because it did remain strong throughout this entire disgraceful process,” Robinson stated. “Like you, I’m surprised that this hearing didn’t happen in March or April as opposed to in...
