Chris Christie is seriously considering launching a 2024 bid to try his hand at winning the White House again, at least three sources familiar with his thinking told Axios.The former Republican New Jersey governor toasted to friends, according to the Wednesday report, that so far he would be the only Republican in the 2024 primary field with executive experience.Christie, 58, has also revealed to confidants that whether former President Donald Trump runs or not will not affect his own decision on the matter.If Trump doesn't run, the field would be wide open and likely muddied with another crowded primary contest.

The ten-year-old girl whose testimony at George Floyd's trial is being cited by prosecutors as a reason for why Chauvin should never leave prison said on Wednesday morning that she felt 'kinda proud' of her contribution to his conviction. Jedeah Reynolds was nine last May when she walked to the Cup Foods store in Minneapolis with her older cousin to buy snacks. She had pestered her older cousin to go. When they were there, Floyd was arrested and killed by Chauvin. The girl's adult cousin filmed it and her footage led to Chauvin's arrest and conviction. Jedeah was presented as a prosecution witness. She told the court that watching Chauvin

Among those who were aware of Mr. Durham’s probe, 83% said it was “likely” that the Obama-Biden White House either knew about the Russia investigation, dubbed “Crossfire Hurricane,”

In Why the Jews?, my book on anti-Semitism, there is a chapter on anti-Americanism. My co-author, Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, and I long ago understood that many of the reasons for Jew-hatred and America-hatred were the same.Among them are envy of success—material, of course, but even more importantly, success in terms of influence. Another is the religious foundation of both peoples: Both America and the Jews are rooted in belief in God, belief they are a Chosen People and belief in the Bible, especially the Old Testament, as the book from which they derive their values.America-haters and Jew-haters resent the enormous influence both nations have had on the world, have contempt

Columbus police have released bodycam footage showing the officer shooting of 15-year-old Makhia Bryant, who was fatally gunned down just moments before Derek Chauvin was found guilty on all counts for the 2020 murder of George Floyd. In an attempt to show more transparency and ease tensions as Black Lives Matter protesters descended on the scene, the police department released footage that appears to show the teen run out of her home with a knife. Bryant can be seen with a knife as she storms out of the home and towards another woman, with the woman falling backwards. Scroll down for video

After being convicted in the murder of George Floyd, Derek Chauvin was taken to the Minnesota Correctional Facility-Oak Park Heights — a maximum-security state prison. The ex-Minneapolis cop was transferred there through an agreement between the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office and the state Department of Corrections, DOC spokeswoman Sarah Fitzgerald told CNN. The prison — located in Stillwater, about 25 miles east of downtown Minneapolis – is where Chauvin also was placed in June 2020 after he was held at the Ramsey County Jail and the Hennepin County Jail.

The progressive left-wing in this country loves to throw gasoline on the fires of unrest in this nation, but they are never really interested in finding reasonable solutions. Case in point: the problem of police violence in America.This is not a new problem. It is not a problem that’s just popped up out of thin air. Black Americans have been complaining about the issue for decades and decades (Snip) As the verdict in the Chauvin trial came down, the hot takes spread across social media like flaming trash piles and naturally, one hot take that is going to be popping up is the complaint that Congress has done nothing

A bill meant to protect drivers who hit protesters during the course of fleeing a riot passed the Oklahoma Senate on Wednesday. House Bill 1674, which passed through the Senate by a vote of 38-10, would increase penalties for blocking roadways while also providing immunity to drivers who kill or injure motorists while fleeing the scene of a riot in fear for their lives, according to the Associated Press. The bill comes in response to an incident in Tulsa, Oklahoma, last year in which a driver in a pickup truck drove through a group of George Floyd protesters blocking an interstate and injured several protesters.
