Multiple US airlines are now so desperate for staff that they've swapped planes for buses on some shorter routes. Several carriers, including American Airlines have hired coach companies to carry passengers when the distances are small. American will bus people between Philadelphia and between multiple other airports that would only be a short hop away by air. The service will start June 3 between Philadelphia International and airports in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and Atlantic City, New Jersey with the bus company called Landline. Meanwhile, United is offering one-stop connectivity to both Fort Collins and Breckenridge, with four daily buses from Denver to the former and just one to the latter.

Low-income New Jerseyans will be getting another $12.8 million to help them pay their heating and cooling bills, the final tranche of a record allocation to the state. President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus law, the $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure law and the regular spending bills will deliver $302.4 million to the state through Sept. 30, more than double the $112.7 million the state ordinarily would receive under the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, or LIHEAP. The money represents the biggest allocation for the program since it began in 1981 and follows a surge in energy prices during the recovery from the coronavirus-induced recession and the Russian

The U.S. secretaries of state and defense are making a secret visit to Ukraine to meet with President Volodymyr Zelensky as he calls for more powerful weapons to fight Russian forces. Anthony Blinken and Lloyd Austin met with Zelensky in Ukraine on Sunday—13 days after British Prime Minister Boris Johnson won plaudits for flying to the war-torn nation and walking the streets of Kyiv with Zelensky.
Joe Biden has made no such-attempt to show solidarity with his own in-person visit, and his press secretary Jen Psaki has said there are no plans for the 79 year-old to travel there.

The Texas National Guard soldier who died trying to save alleged drug smugglers in the Rio Grande River was identified Sunday as Specialist Bishop E. Evans, 22, from Arlington, Texas. The search is still underway for Evans' body after he presumably drowned Friday after jumping in the water diving Texas and Mexico in an attempt to rescue two men from the current. Republican Texas Representative Chip Roy sent a quick 'rest in peace' message on Twitter upon the release of the deceased's name. Illinois GOP Representative Mary Miller tweeted on Sunday: 'Praying for Texas National Guard SPC Bishop Evans and his family. What a horrible tragedy for them to endure,

Sixteen people–most of whom were trying to enter the US without permission–were injured when their pickup truck crashed while being chased at high speeds by Texas police, according to authorities.
Two of those hurt were critically wounded and flown to hospitals in San Antonio by helicopter, said the sheriff of Medina county, Randy Brown, whose deputies pursued the truck at the center of the wreck.
A steadily growing number of law enforcement agencies across the US have prohibited their officers from chasing fleeing vehicle drivers who are not suspected of violent crimes. Brown on Saturday said his office largely defers to deputies’ judgments about whom to chase

Hildale, Utah—Marion Timpson’s own marriages reflect Utah’s recent legal battles over polygamy. “I married Holly in 2005 and Katie in 2013, and I married Lisa in 2014,” the polygamist told FOX 13 News, referring to his wives. One of his marriages took place shortly after a federal judge struck down Utah’s anti-polygamy laws. Reality TV polygamist Kody Brown and his wives sued the state and won, effectively decriminalizing plural marriage as a religious belief. (Snip)“Bigamy had been a felony in Utah since 1935 and it clearly didn’t do what the law, I think, or the people who put that law intended it for it do.

First it was statues, then it was street names and books by white authors. Now left-wing radicals have cricket and knitting in their woke sights as they aim to decolonise Britain—and they've used millions in taxpayers' money to do it. Taxpayers' cash is being spent to decolonise English museums, which depict a history written by 'white, wealthy, able-bodied men'. Arts Council England has poured millions of hardworking Britons' money into Museum Development England, which said museums in the country, including attractions dedicated to cricket and knitwear, needed help with 'equity and inclusion'. There has been continued outrage at the lengths woke museum and arts bosses are going

Alec Baldwin just can't catch a break from a run in with the law.
Baldwin, 64, was spotted opening an envelop containing a parking ticket after stopping to grab lunch near his home in ritzy East Hampton over the weekend. Baldwin and his wife Hilaria, 38, who is pregnant with their seventh child, have been seen in the upscale Long Island community several times since he has come under fire for shooting cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his western, Rust, last October. The actor, who was out for lunch Saturday, returned to his vehicle to find the dreaded bright yellow parking ticket on his windshield. He grabs it,

New York—The Metropolitan Transportation Authority shelled out more than $1 billion in overtime pay to its employees last year, according to payroll data released Friday. More than 300 workers collected at least $100,000 in overtime, four of whom pocketed more than $200,000, records show. Approximately 700 earned more in overtime than their regular salary, according to the data posted on SeeThroughNewYork, the Empire Center’s government transparency website.(Snip)The MTA forked over a record-high $1.38 billion in overtime pay in 2018, which lead to a series of investigations and criminal charges, officials said. MTA Chief Operating Officer Lisette Camilo said the agency continues to reduce and manage overtime spending.

She’s in for a rude awokening. Far left New York state Senator Alessandra Biaggi’s quest to become a member of Congress next year is sputtering, with the aspiring Squad member’s campaign being rocked by staff departures and former employees who claim she’s a nightmare.(Snip)Insiders say that while Biaggi often talks big about progressive values, her office culture is anything but. “She was very hyper. She screamed and yelled quite bit,” said one former staffer. “She had a policy that nobody on staff could speak to her. Everyone had to go through the chief of staff.” The staffer described haranguing text messages past 2 AM

A plane full of migrants was unloaded and dispersed to various locations in the New York City area Friday night under cover of darkness, the latest in a series of clandestine flights authorized by the White House. The flights resumed earlier this month after a Post exposé led to their suspension last year. On Friday, the Post watched as a group of migrants disembarked from an iAero Airways flight from Jacksonville, Fla. that landed at Westchester County Airport at 9:48 p.m.(Snip)At the first stop in Yonkers, one of the migrants entered what looked like a sprawling dorm complex near the grounds of Sisters of Charity, a Catholic
Comments:
They can fabricate evidence against and spy on a US president, they can hide and ignore evidence of crimes against Democrats, and they can stage an insurgency against the federal government and entrap some yokels in a plot they invented to kidnap a governor, among other things. So why hassle this patriot for roughing up a meter maid? Give that man a medal and a promotion.
