'We got him!' NYC Mayor Eric Adams is
slammed for taking credit for capture
of smirking subway gunman who roamed city
and trains for 29HRS before calling cops
HIMSELF and saying 'I think you're looking
for me'

New York City Mayor Eric Adams and the NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell have been skewered for trying to take credit for the arrest of subway shooting suspect Frank James on Wednesday when it was a 21-year-old security worker who spotted him and alerted police after James himself called police, saying: 'I heard you were looking for me.' James was taken into custody on Wednesday on 1st Avenue between 7th and 8th Streets after a by-stander recognized him and called police. His arrest on Wednesday brings an end to an embarrassing and fruitless day-long manhunt by the FBI and NYPD. He was marched out of the 9th Precinct

The idea of space tourism was once thought to be more science fiction than reality.But with the rise of SpaceX, Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin – all bankrolled by billionaire entrepreneurs – the burgeoning industry promises to be one of the next great endeavours of this decade. Now throw into the mix a space balloon company, which offers passengers the chance to observe the Earth's curvature from 20 miles (30 km) up, and the future seems very exciting indeed.US-based Space Perspective unveiled more details about its giant balloon venture after sharing illustrations of the swish cabins that passengers will sit in, complete with 5ft (1.5 metre) high windows,

Billionaire Michael Bloomberg, the failed Democrat presidential primary candidate and former New York City mayor, is paying less than half the federal income tax rate the average American taxpayer pays, newly published Internal Revenue Service (IRS) data reveals.The revelation is part of a broad investigation by ProPublica that gives a glimpse into the tax loopholes that the richest 400 Americans utilize every year to dodge billions in federal income taxes that most Americans are required to pay.“To make it into the top 400, each person on this list had

Supporters of billionaire Elon Musk’s proposal to purchase social media giant Twitter indicate that free speech is the number one thing on their minds, with many hoping to see a reinstatement of former President Donald Trump’s account.
Unfortunately, Trump doesn’t have any intention of going back to Twitter even if he is released from his permanent ban. He explained his reasoning to Americano Media during an interview. (Tweet) “Recently the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, took 9.2% of Twitter’s stock making him its largest shareholder. If he were to reinstate your Twitter account, Mr. President, would you resume tweeting? And what would be your first tweet?” asked Maria Herrera Mellado
Russia's Black Sea flagship has been sunk, Moscow's defence ministry finally admitted tonight, after Kyiv officially claimed earlier to have been behind a double-missile strike late on Wednesday off the coast of Ukraine.The Moskva - a huge Soviet-era missile cruiser - sank as it was towed back to port in stormy weather following an explosion and fire, Russian news agencies reported on Thursday. Ukraine says the fire on board was caused by two Neptune cruise missiles fired by one of its batteries near the port city of Odesa. Hundreds of sailors may have died in the strike.
Apparently, CNN’s resident potato, Brian Stelter, doesn’t want an African-American to buy Twitter. Or, at least not a certain African-American: Elon Musk.
You see, after Elon announced his offer to buy Twitter and take it private as a way to protect free speech on the platform, Brian Stelter followed in the rainbow footsteps of many other leftists and comTweets/Videos) It’s funny how blatant and ridiculous Stelter’s attempts to keep Elon from buying Twitter and restoring free speech to the platform. He makes stock price suggestions, says maybe a wealthy leftist could buy it, and otherwise tries to find ways to stop Elon from buying Twitter.
Citizens United President David Bossie celebrated the success of the documentary film from Citizens United Productions, Rigged: The Zuckerberg-Funded Plot to Defeat Donald Trump, which details how Mark Zuckerberg dropped $400 million for election efforts to quash former President Trump and bolster then-candidate Joe Biden in the 2020 election, telling Breitbart News Daily that the tech billionaire has already thrown his hands up “in surrender.”This week, the Center for Technology and Civil Life (CTCL), the organization partially responsible for distributing Zuckerberg’s $400 million grants for election efforts leading up to the 2020 election, said they would cease to engage in similar behavior

Multiple Democrats on Capitol Hill are worried about the ability of one of their longest-serving senators, Dianne Feinstein, to continue serving in Congress, a new report suggests on Thursday. Feinstein, 88, had long been renowned in Washington for an issue-focused passion and quick wit -- but one California Democratic lawmakers told the San Francisco Chronicle there was 'no trace of that' in recent months.
The Biden administration on Thursday unveiled hundreds of strategies across several federal agencies aimed at addressing what it says is racial and gender inequity in the federal government. A senior administration official said the initiative is the first major assessment of how government policies have allowed “inequality to fester,” including ways they said the government has blocked underserved communities from government services.
“This is about getting under the hood in every agency,” the official said. The plan outlines more than 300 different strategies and commitments by more than 90 federal agencies, including the Justice, Defense, Energy and Labor departments. For example, the Justice Department will offer more language-accessible programs
The Russian people know little about Putin’s war on Ukraine because Putin has blocked their access to the truth, substituting propaganda and lies.
Years ago, pundits assumed the internet would open a new era of democracy, giving everyone access to the truth. But dictators like Putin and demagogues like Trump have demonstrated how naive that assumption was.
At least the US responded to Trump’s lies. Trump had 88 million Twitter followers before Twitter took him off its platform – just two days after the attack on the Capitol, which he provoked, in part, with his tweets. (Trump’s social media accounts were also suspended on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitch and TikTok
Tony Dungy, the first black coach ever to win a Super Bowl, might have escaped notice this week had he merely supported Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s “Responsible Fatherhood Initiative.” His real sin was to explain why.
Dungy, a Christian father or eleven, recounted a conversation he had years back with the Rev. Abe Brown about Brown’s prison ministry. At Brown’s request, Dungy accompanied him to prison. Expecting to find hardened criminals, Dungy found instead “19- and 20- and 21-year-old kids who looked like my boys.” When Dungy asked what accounted for the young men’s incarceration, Brown told him, “(snip) Ninety-five percent of these boys did not grow up with their dad.”
The Oracle of Oakland has done it again. Asked about anger at the Biden administration over inflation, putative Vice President Kamala Harris answered Wednesday: “Well, first of all, I acknowledge one must acknowledge, um, that prices are going up. And that people are working hard. And in many cases are worried about whether they can get through the end of the month and make it all work.” Indeed, one must acknowledge these things, just as one must acknowledge that there is a sun in the sky and that water can tend to be wet. It seems as if every time she opens her mouth, the ostensible vice president
Pundits skeptical of or even hostile to Ukraine’s cause in its defensive war against Russia have different reasons, or rationalizations, for their views and hail from different points on the political spectrum. But there is one belief that unites nearly all of them: the conviction that Ukraine is not a democracy fighting for its survival but an American “Deep State” project, with a regime installed by a 2014 coup that was led by Ukrainian far-right extremists and backed or even engineered by the U.S. State Department.
As Vladimir Putin embarks on his Plan B — a massive military operation to try to grab at least a small bite of eastern Ukraine to justify his misbegotten war — I thought: Who could give him the best advice right now? I settled on one of America’s premier teachers of grand strategy, John Arquilla, who recently retired as a distinguished professor of defense analysis at the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School. When I called Arquilla and asked him what he’d tell Putin today, he didn’t hesitate: “I would say, ‘Make peace, you fool.’”
This is also known as the first rule of holes: When you’re in one, stop digging.

Elon Musk has launched a $41 billion bid to buy Twitter, saying the proposed deal is part of his plan to bring “free speech around the globe” just days after rejecting a seat on the social media company’s board.Musk’s offer price of $54.20 per share, which was disclosed in a regulatory filing on Thursday, represents a 38% premium to Twitter’s April 1 close, the last trading day before the Tesla CEO’s more than 9% stake in the company was made public.Twitter’s shares jumped 12% in premarket trading.
President Joe Biden said Thursday he was still working with his team to determine whether he should dispatch a senior member of his administration to Ukraine, a potentially dramatic show of support for the nation as it comes under attack from Russia.
“We’re making that decision now,” Biden said when asked whether he would send a senior official to Ukraine. Asked who he would send, Biden turned back to a reporter and said, “You ready to go?”
Her answer did raise more questions than answers.
Democrats are facing a nightmare scenario with about six months to go before the midterm elections.
Inflation, immigration, the war in Ukraine and the still-lingering COVID-19 pandemic make for a dreadful political atmosphere for President Biden’s party.
The problems are compounded by Biden’s weak approval numbers and the historical pattern whereby a president’s party typically loses seats in the first midterms of his tenure.
Some Democrats believe a turnaround is still possible, or at least that losses can be kept modest.
But others, granted anonymity to speak candidly, sound a louder alarm.
It looks like the public isn't buying Joe Biden's argument that Vlad Putin is the guy responsible for all the inflation out there.
Take a gander at his latest poll numbers:
President Joe Biden’s approval rating sank to a new low of 33%, according to a new Quinnipiac poll.
The April poll found 33% of voters approved of Biden’s handling as president, while 54% disapproved. Broken down by party lines, Republicans disapprove 93-3%. Democrats approve 76-12%.
More than half of Independent voters disapprove of the 46th president’s handling, with only 26% offering approval.
