An Asian woman’s disturbing description of being randomly attacked by a drug addict outside a Long Island City restaurant has gone viral — as she’s left terrified after the shocking incident. Chinese immigrant Runing Lao, 30, told The Post she’s scared to go back to work since the surprise attack as she left the Chipotle near the corner of Purves Street and Jackson Avenue at about 1 p.m. on July 17. “I was maybe five or 10 steps away from Chipotle … and this woman just starts to beat me for no reason,” Lao, who works in real estate, said...

The Hancock, Michigan, Police Department posted a press release Sunday warning about “three different incidents that appeared to be politically motivated,” with the targets being “Trump and Law Enforcement supporters.” This is what happens when billions of corporate media dollars are used to smear the decent, hardworking, everyday people who support former President Donald Trump as Nazis…. One of the victims is an 80-year-old man who was run down in his yard while putting up a pro-Trump sign: At approximately 5:45PM, in the 1600 blk of Anthony Street, the same subject driving an ATV (4-wheel) allegedly with intention to do...

Winston Churchill once famously said that “nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without result.” For Donald Trump, the failed assassination attempt in Pennsylvania could prove politically exhilarating. After rising with a fist pump and a call to fight on, Trump seems to have gone from being a movement to a mythological figure with his supporters. All he needs now is a big blue ox named Babe to return to the campaign trail. This assassination attempt should also concentrate the minds of everyone on the escalating rhetoric in this campaign, particularly the media in maintaining inflammatory...

Sheridan hockey coach Patrick Mudd died over the weekend, after he was allegedly "sucker punched" in a parking lot outside of the Sheridan WYO rodeo. The hockey community laid their sticks outside his home in mourning. =============================================================== A Sheridan man faces up to 20 years in prison, accused of punching a man so hard he died after a parking argument.

During an interview with MSNBC on Monday, Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) said that “the only reaction” to the assassination attempt on 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump “that matters here is one in which both parties denounce the use of violence in our politics.” And “I’ll keep my fingers crossed that Donald Trump will renounce violence this week. I just think I know Donald Trump, I don’t think he will do it.” Host Rachel Maddow said, “I’m not going to insist that you join in this conversation that we were having in terms of reaction to what happened...

(Biden on June 29, 2024): "I’ve got a lot more to say, but I’m not going to take a lot of your time. Let me close with this. Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation. That is not hyperbole. He’s a threat to our freedom. He’s a threat to our democracy. He is literally a threat to the America that we stand for."

Shameless lefties on social media came under fire for celebrating the assassination attempt on Donald Trump – with some even lamenting that the shooter missed and that it was “close to being the best day ever.” “You’re telling me somebody finally had the balls to bring a ‘pew-pew,’ and they missed?” a TikTok user @cele2t3 posted shortly after Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire at the Butler Farm Show grounds Saturday, narrowly missing Trump and killing one attendee.

So 2024 could be the new 1968, a watershed political year characterized by malefactors attacking iconic political leaders. That’s the fear of a full 67% of Americans polled in the wake of a sniper attack on former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pa., Saturday evening. Two out of every three of the 4,339 Americans YouGov surveyed believe political violence is more likely — suggesting the shots fired at the presumptive GOP presidential nominee in his last campaign stop before the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee are a preamble to further violence.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office has arrested a woman following violence that took place outside Astro Skate in May. On Saturday, May 18, 2024, at 9:20 p.m., our Communications Center received a call from an off-duty HCSO deputy that a large crowd of 500 people had shown up to Astro Skate in Brandon, where several violent fights had broken out. With further investigation, deputies have now arrested Stephanie Pedroso, 36, for her part in inciting the violence that took place that night. Deputies also arrested Pedroso's husband, James Knight II, 38, on an unrelated charge of Driving with License Suspended,...

Company officials posted the news on social media and said the changes will affect all four locations in Vicksburg.

Over 100 people were shot in Chicago last weekend, including 18 fatally. Mayor Brandon Johnson blamed it on Richard Nixon in his press conference today. No, that is not a joke.

The Fourth of July historically is one of the nation’s deadliest days of the year. A flurry of shootings around the holiday a year ago left more than a dozen people dead and over 60 wounded. And a year before that, seven people died in a mass shooting at a Fourth of July parade near Chicago. Violence and mass shootings often increase in the summer months, with more people gathering for social events, teens out of school and hotter temperatures. Chicago ‘in state of grief’ In Chicago alone, 11 people had been killed and 55 wounded in shootings as of...

Orange Is the New Black actress Lea DeLaria uploaded an intense Instagram speech calling on President Joe Biden to take advantage of the Supreme Court’s newly defined executive immunity rules and assassinate Donald Trump. DeLaria posted the video Monday in the wake of the Supreme Court ruling the former president is immune from prosecution for any “official acts” while in office. The ruling has led to speculation that a president could, in theory, assassinate a political rival and then call it an “official” act. Well, that’s what DeLaria rather provocatively called on Biden to do and likened the assassination to...

HONOLULU (KHON2) -- Drug cartels from Mexico are operating in Hawaii, making and pushing deadly drugs including methamphetamines and fentanyl. New tougher penalties akin to murder charges are aiming to take them down. Authorities told KHON2 that the big cartels are ramping up business not just south of the border but right here in our island state. The top federal law enforcement official in Hawaii warns of the dangers not just to drug users, but to drug pushers once caught. Authorities have seen a big shift in recent years to Hawaii’s most dangerous drugs methamphetamine and fentanyl especially coming mostly...

How the Left spawns femicidal terror. The United Nations calls it “femicide,” the wanton assault, rape and murder of girls and women. It’s a cultural epidemic in Latin America.Femicide is visible every step of the way from South America and the Northern Triangle countries to the Mexico-U.S. border. Rape trees, where women’s panties hang from branches, and rape tents, where girls and women are dragged by smugglers, dot the route. Do you think the rapes stop when illegals cross into the U.S.? No.Now women are being victimized by migrants bringing femicide to your neighborhood. Where are the women’s rights groups?...

Multiple brawls and wild chaos engulfed Washington Square Park in the aftermath of New York City’s Pride Parade Sunday as police battled to control the unruly mob of revelers, shocking footage shows. Video from the jaw-dropping scene showed fistfights and hair-pulling as several troublemakers turned the crowded park into their own personal boxing ring while herds of onlookers watched with glee and even whipped out their phones to record the showdowns in Lower Manhattan. At one point, two young men threw haymakers at each other before one took a tumble to the ground. Seconds later, two women briefly took swings...

We are past the crisis point for Jews in New York City. On Mayor Eric Adam's watch, Jews are unsafe. If Mayor Adams doesn’t very quickly take action, there’ll be dead Jews in the streets of New York. When that inevitable murder and increased violence come, Mayor Adams will give an empathic statement on how unacceptable Anti-Semitism is. He’ll even speak on hostages or some other issue on which he has no authority. What he hasn’t done however is act to protect Jews. Mr. Mayor, the Jews no longer trust you. We have had enough. The Jews of New York...

A violent antisemitic mob descended upon a Los Angeles synagogue on Sunday and harassed the congregants, injuring several. Yet the response from the LA media and authorities has been pitiful. Many VIDEOS AT LINK............. The initial protests were organized by Palestinian Youth Movement LA and Code Pink LA, the same coalition of people who’ve organized the protests on college campuses and in our cities. Some of the protesters filmed their march down the streets of Los Angeles holding Palestinian and pro-Hamas flags. They screamed chants like, “There is only one solution, intifada revolution.” This is what the protest ended up...

Antisemitic mob in Los Angeles beats a Jewish woman in broad daylight. Never Again is NOW, damnit

Some people are calling this a “pogrom”. It was at best a low-level riot against Jews by Islamic terrorist supporters and Antifa with the complicity of local Los Angeles authorities. I have an article with more to say about it, but the videos speak for themselves. The target was Congregation Adas Torah (Congregation of the Bible) but the pro-terror rally spread out to two adjoining synagogues and then the violence spread out past Kosher restaurants, a Jewish school and to nearby residential streets on both sides of Pico Blvd in the Pico Robertson neighborhood where the Hamas rioters freely attacked...
