As the U.S. Supreme Court appears ready to strike down Roe v. Wade, New York Democrats want taxpayers to fund abortions for out-of-state women–including illegal migrants–through a proposed state program costing tens of millions of dollars per year. “That’s the goal of this bill–to ensure that everyone can get the care that they need no matter their [immigration] status or their socio-economic conditions, insurance status, all that,” Assemblywoman Jessica González-Rojas (D-Queens), told The Post Monday about the legislation she is sponsoring with state Sen. Cordell Cleare (D-Harlem), The envisioned Reproductive Freedom and Equity Program would cover medical costs and traveling expenses

Harrisburg, Pa.—With six days until Pennsylvania's primary, Republicans are openly worrying that a leading candidate in the crowded GOP field for governor is unelectable in the fall general election and will fumble away an opportunity for the party to take over the battleground state's executive suite. Doug Mastriano, 58, a state senator since 2019 and a retired U.S. Army colonel, is running to the right of the nine-person Republican field and against the party's establishment in a state still roiled by former President Donald Trump's baseless conspiracy theories that Democrats stole the 2020 election there. Mastriano is a prominent peddler of the unsubstantiated claims that widespread fraud marred
A Michigan woman who was being sought for the cold-blooded killings of her boyfriend and brother was found dead from an apparent suicide Monday, authorities said. Police officers discovered the body of 22-year-old Ruby Taverner at around 10 a.m. in a wooded area behind the Independence Square Apartments in Independence Township, northwest of Detroit. They said Taverner, who was wanted in connection with the double homicide, died of what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound.(Snip)“You almost wonder what was the point to this whole thing? You never get any answers that satisfy those questions because, now, all parties are deceased.”

The gun-homicide rate jumped by a whopping 35% in 2020 against the backdrop of the pandemic while gun-involved suicides remained steady but alarmingly high, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a new report Tuesday. The report underscored the ripple effects of COVID-19’s impact on America and the agency’s decision to target gun violence after a decades-long silence. The overall firearm homicide rate jumped from 4.6 per 100,000 persons to 6.1 per 100,000 from 2019 to 2020, its highest level in nearly three decades. Rates increased among all age groups in both urban and rural areas and the largest increases were among Black
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Tuesday warned that eliminating abortion rights would damage the U.S. economy and 'set women back decades.' 'I believe that eliminating the right of women to make decisions about when and whether to have children would have very damaging effects on the economy and would set women back decades,' she said at a Senate Banking Committee hearing. Yellen was asked about the draft Supreme Court opinion that indicated justices support overturning Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that legalized abortion, and the effect such a decision would have on the economy. 'It enabled many women to finish school that increase their earning potential and allowed
Newly minted White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre described Fox News as a “racist” network during a TV appearance in March 2020, according to a clip that resurfaced this week.
“[Fox News] was racist before coronavirus, they are racist during the coronavirus, Fox News will be racist after the coronavirus,” Jean-Pierre said during a March 15 appearance on MSNBC’s “AM Joy.”
“So there is nothing new here,” she continued. “I think the difference is they are all-in on being state TV for Donald Trump, and so they will continue to give misinformation.” At the time, Jean-Pierre worked as a political analyst for the left-wing network

Wells Fargo has become the latest major financial institution to set new greenhouse gas standards requiring borrowers in the energy sector to reduce emissions. Oil and natural gas companies must reduce their absolute emissions by 26% by 2030, based on 2019 emission levels, Wells Fargo said last week. Other power sector businesses must see a 60% reduction during the same time period.
The new rules from Wells Fargo are part of a trend from financial institutions around the world to implement such climate regulations for its lending programs, joining the likes of Citigroup Inc. and the United Nations-convened Net-Zero Banking Alliance. The alliance is an industry-led coalition

Washington—White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that US officials are looking at repealing tariffs on Chinese goods “separately” from any US pressure on China to come clean about the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic and whether the virus leaked from a Wuhan lab. Psaki, responding to a briefing question from The Post, said a review of Trump administration tariffs is focused on consumer prices, and not on the grim approaching milestone of 1 million US coronavirus deaths.“Can you say where the tariffs question comes into pushing China to be transparent on the [pandemic] origins?” The Post asked. “And can you detail anything that President Biden
Desperate mothers across the US have been forced to buy formula they know will make their babies sick as the country grapples with a shortage that has left shelves bare and has caused prices to skyrocket to $120-a-can. Wynter Balthrop, of Gallatin, Tennessee, says she broke down inside her car after driving to six stores and calling others as far as three hours away only to receive the same answer—the Enfamil's Nutramigen formula, the only her baby tolerates, was out-of-stock.(Snip)Parents across the nation are now relying on strangers across state lines who kindly buy formula when it's available, ship it to where it's intended
The Biden administration said Monday it will suspend Trump-era tariffs on Ukrainian steel for one year to help the country employ workers and maintain a vital industry as it repels Russian invaders.
The Commerce Department said the steel industry employs one in 13 Ukrainians, and some of the nation’s biggest steel towns have been hit the hardest by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “barbarism.” It also pointed to the steel mill in Mariupol, where holdout Ukrainian fighters are hunkered down, as a symbol of Ukraine’s resistance to Russian aggression. “We can’t just admire the fortitude and spirit of the Ukrainian people—we need to have their backs and support
Voters overwhelmingly want stiffer enforcement of America’s immigration laws and a clear majority says President Biden’s border policies have sparked a drug surge that has cost lives, according to new polling. By nearly a 2-1 margin, voters also say if Mr. Biden follows through on ending the Title 42 pandemic policy that allowed some illegal immigrants to be expelled quickly back to Mexico, “the border will be open.” The survey, sponsored by the conservative Senate Opportunity Fund and conducted by OnMessage Inc., also found voters across the ideological spectrum believe the U.S. is headed for an economic recession. The data, which is shared with GOP senators and conservative leaders,
The Biden administration announced a plan plan to get high-speed internet to millions of Americans through subsidies and discounts agreed to by industry–putting work-from-home technology, plus educational and entertainment options into rural and low-income homes. 'High-speed internet service is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity,' the White House said in a fact sheet Monday announcing the program. The funds come from the bipartisan infrastructure law that Biden is championing around the country.(Snip)'That's fast enough for a typical family of four to work from home, do schoolwork, browse the web, and stream high-definition shows and movies,' according to the fact sheet.

The world is creeping closer to the warming threshold international agreements are trying to prevent, with nearly a 50-50 chance that Earth will temporarily hit that temperature mark within the next five years, teams of meteorologists across the globe predicted.With human-made climate change continuing, there’s a 48% chance that the globe will reach a yearly average of 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) above pre-industrial levels of the late 1800s at least once between now and 2026, a bright red signal in climate change negotiations and science, a team of 11 different forecast centers predicted for the World Meteorological Organization late Monday.
MSNBC guest Laurie Kilmartin said Sunday that she wants to “make sweet love” to whoever leaked the Supreme Court draft opinion on Roe v. Wade and that she would “joyfully abort the baby.” Kilmartin shared her comments on MSNBC’s “Ayman Mohyeldin Reports” in a clip shared on Twitter. The guest panel was discussing the leaked SCOTUS draft opinion that favored overturning Roe v. Wade, returning the rights on abortion laws to each of the 50 states.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that President Biden can continue to call out 'ultra MAGA' supporters while maintaining the ability to work with Republicans on his agenda. Biden campaigned on his decades-long relations with lawmakers – even as he tore into Donald Trump.'How does that jibe with his desire to be the bipartisan guy,' Psaki was asked at Monday's press briefing. 'Well, the President's view is you can do both,' she responded. 'He believes that there is work we can continue to do together where we're actively advocating for, he was out traveling in just last Friday on the bipartisan Innovation Act,'
When you think of everything that's gone wrong with the U.S. military -- from its wokester agenda, to its failure to contain Russia, to its breakdown in discipline, to the presence of Gen. Mark Milley on the Joint Chiefs of Staff, pretty much all of it has the name of Mark Esper, President Trump's former defense secretary, all over it.
Rather than slink off into obscurity after such a performance, if not back to the big-bucks war-machine defense-contractor lobby whence he sprang, he's out shilling a tell-all book and promoting it on 60 Minutes in a bid to discredit the man he purportedly "served," President Trump.

Back in December, Twitter censored and suspended a Twitter account that was following the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell and providing detailed coverage.Apparently, liberals working behind closed doors at the tech giant weren’t happy about this activity on the social platform.One person said, “It is also ‘interesting’ that the account tracking the ’s trial got banned when it gained traction. Lovely people indeed.”Billionaire Elon Musk chimed in and called for the list of Epstein clients to be released. It’s widely speculated that influential people are working to keep Epstein’s client list hidden who allegedly had

Donald Trump wanted to shut down all American embassies in Africa and withdraw the United States military from the continent when he was in the White House, Defense Secretary Mark Esper reveals in a new excerpt of his memoir published on Monday.
The former Pentagon chief details a number of 'outlandish' proposals his old boss confronted him with in the forthcoming book, A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times.
Is Kathy Barnette’s momentum in Pennsylvania real? A new poll of the state’s GOP Senate primary suggests it is.
Barnette, who is essentially in a three-person race with Dr. Mehmet Oz and David McCormick, gained notoriety recently after she turned in a viral debate performance. Some of her noteworthy moments included calling both Oz and McCormick out for being associated with the World Economic Forum, perhaps the most disturbing globalist organization on the planet. She also hit Oz on his long history of holding pro-abortion views. At the time of the debate, Barnette was within striking distance

The premiere of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds on Paramount Plus Thursday, appeared to allege that the January 6, 2021 riot at the US Capitol triggered the fictitious nuclear World War III on Earth in the sci-fi series timeline. The spin off from Star Trek: Discovery, based in cannon from the 1960's original series, showed the crew of the Enterprise discovering a pre-warp society with advanced technology, which warring factions on the planet are about to use against each other.

Have at it; $50 million a year is a small price to pay to collect all of the non-birthing persons together. In the not distant past and probably in the future, citizens would know how to handle such a proposition.
