In a letter to President Joe Biden, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker called for the federal government to assist the state as it grapples with a “humanitarian crisis” due to an influx of migrants. “But as the numbers being transported to Chicago are accelerating, the humanitarian crisis is overwhelming our ability to provide aid to the

There was joy and excitement as Donald Trump appeared in a court to face accusations of fraud in his business practices. The networks, as usual, hyped the trip to the courthouse with live coverage. “TRUMP ARRIVES AT COURT FOR CIVIL FRAUD TRIAL,” CNN announced like it was deeply impactful news. It could be, if the
Progressive Democrat Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York offered a bizarre excuse and apology after his office sent out talking points calling his detractors “Nazi members” over his fire alarm scandal. Republicans and others have called for Bowman to be expelled from Congress and face criminal charges after he admitted to pulling a fire alarm
Former Dodgers baseball pitcher Trevor Bauer posted a video to social media defending himself from sexual assault accusations after he and his accuser agreed to drop their lawsuits against each other.

The front page of Monday’s New York Times marked the return of the U.S. Supreme Court to the bench with the scary-sounding headline “How Far to the Right Will the Supreme Court Go?” by Supreme Court beat reporters Adam Liptak and Abbie VanSickle. Recent history suggests that the court’s six Republican appointees will continue to
No matter what a presidential candidate like Joe Biden — any candidate, really — might promise during the election, sometimes, smart policies initiated by their predecessor continue even after the new guy is sworn in. Biden’s China policies are remarkably like Donald Trump’s. Trump began the long and difficult process of decoupling our economy from
Editor’s note: This is the first of a two-part series on the legal travails of Blaze Media contributor Steve Baker and his reporting surrounding the events of January 6, 2021.

Former Democratic President Bill Clinton stated on Sunday that New York City’s “right-to-shelter” law needs to change due to the migrant crisis overwhelming the city’s shelter system. Clinton told 77 WABC radio’s John Catsimatidis that the city’s right-to-shelter measure needs to be fixed, agreeing with New York Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul’s sudden calls for change
Over the weekend, we saw the liberal media rush to spread New York Democratic Representative Jamaal Bowman’s disinformation that he set off a fire alarm in a House office building because he thought that’s how doors worked. But, on Monday, a couple of the radical liberals on ABC’s The View had their own conspiratorial theories.
Harry Truman reportedly said, “Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I’ll show you a crook.” Throughout her lifelong career in “public service,” Dianne Feinstein amassed for herself an absurd fortune fit for a Fortune 500 CEO, not a senator making a relatively paltry salary. Now that she’s dead, after
Los Angeles County has reportedly instituted a zero-bail system that officially went into effect on Sunday. The move eliminates setting a defendant’s cash bail amount based on the crime committed. Fox News reported that the critics of the old policy, which set bail proportionate to the severity of the crime, claimed that the rule favored
Comedian and pundit Bill Maher concluded that Joe Biden must not run for president in 2024 if the Democrats hope to win, stating that anyone in the realm of being a “not stupid,” not “woke” “50-ish-year-old” Democrat would be able to beat Donald Trump. On his podcast “Club Random,” Maher spoke to political analyst James
Former President Donald Trump had strong words against Big Tech censorship ahead of the Republican primaries. Speaking at the Sept. 29 California GOP Fall 2023 Convention, Trump blasted what he described as “Silicon Valley tyrants” and pledged to hold them accountable for their “illegal” censorship scheme if elected U.S. President in 2024.“We will make the
Joe Scarborough is a master of false modesty. His typical shtick is to describe himself as “a simple country lawyer.” In a variation on that, last week we caught faux-humble Scarborough saying, “I’m not good at this politics thing.” But given the gaffe Scarborough committed on Wednesday’s Morning Joe, perhaps Joe wasn’t speaking with false
A new electric vehicle battery factory in Kansas will require so much energy that a coal plant slated for closure will now remain open, plus it will be expanded.

A Russian hacker has taken credit for allegedly taking down the Royal Family’s official website in what has been characterized as a targeted attack.

A Navy veteran from New York was recently sentenced to 18 years to life in prison after killing his sister with a bayonet blade and awl.

The ex-boyfriend of Breonna Taylor, who was the target of a narcotics investigation that ultimately resulted in Taylor’s death, has been charged with a slew of drug trafficking offenses. He has also reportedly used minors to transport and sell narcotics. Jamarcus Glover, 33, reportedly faces multiple charges, including conspiracy to traffic in a controlled substance,
With his smart-guy glasses, and his fancy suit that even Joe Scarborough chided him about, Donny Deutsch is the very embodiment of the East Coast elitist snob. On Friday’s Morning Joe, Deutsch reinforced that dubious reputation. He simultaneously described himself and those of his ilk as the people who count to Donald Trump. And at
On Saturday, the House passed a stopgap funding resolution that keeps the government funded through November 17 without any new aid for the never-ending war in Ukraine, thus temporarily averting a shutdown. Democrats have been aggressively touting the passage of the bill as a victory for them and a defeat for “extreme MAGA Republicans.” “We
A jury found a delivery driver not guilty in the shooting of a YouTube prankster in a mall food court in Virginia.

Paul Sperry, the longtime journalist who’s now an investigative reporter for Real Clear Investigations, has tweeted out this less-than-shocking information on media coverage of the House GOP’s impeachment inquiry: BREAKING: CNN, MSNBC and the Big 3 TV networks have all blacked out coverage of today’s Biden impeachment inquiry, only the fourth presidential impeachment inquiry in
A progressive Democrat and member of the so-called “Squad” is accused of pulling a fire alarm at the Cannon House Office Building on Saturday afternoon in a suspected ploy to delay a continuing resolution vote to avert a government shutdown.

A care worker from Cheltenham, England was reportedly arrested and jailed after he allegedly filmed himself raping, sexually abusing elderly women with various mental disorders in two different care homes.

Saturday brought the simultaneously bizarre and outrageous development of New York Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman pulling the fire alarm in order to disrupt the House’s business as it eventually passed a 45-day continuing resolution to avert a government shutdown. Naturally, MSNBC’s Yasmin Vossoughian accepted the statement that it was just an accident. At the end
A federal jury has reportedly indicted a man from Massachusetts on charges related to an incident that took place on a United Airlines flight in March. The man has been accused of attempting to stab a flight attendant with a broken spoon. Francisco Severo Torres, 33, was indicted in a Boston federal court on Wednesday.
Mainstream comics leave countless jokes on the table. Just consider the Biden administration, for starters. The material practically writes itself, from the president’s near-daily short circuits to VP Kamala Harris’ word salad speeches. Ideology keeps getting in the way. The same holds for the woke mindset. Comedians ignore how the Left labels every third word
I have terrible handwriting. Check that — it’s not terrible, it’s awful. It’s unreadable. It’s illegible. A chimpanzee’s handwriting is brilliant in comparison. That’s according to the good Sisters of Mercy who instructed me in the mysteries of cursive writing more than 60 years ago. In the beginning, my handwriting was slightly more legible. But
Here’s a fact: The political brinksmanship that results in a temporary government shutdown is always the result of two sides refusing to budge — each preferring to go beyond the deadline rather than capitulate on a core issue. It’s always the same: One side wants something funded or passed into law, and the other side
Yelp is reportedly discriminating against pro-life pregnancy centers on its website and app. Crisis pregnancy resource centers specifically exist to help pregnant women and their babies, but Yelp appears to have jumped on the bandwagon of labeling them as fake abortion clinics. In an apparent attempt to delegitimize the credibility of pro-life pregnancy centers, the
