An off-duty NYPD officer is in critical condition after he was shot in Brooklyn during an apparent robbery Saturday night, police said. The officer — a 26-year-old father of two — was blasted in the head during a shootout at 472 Ruby Street in East New York around 7 p.m., police and sources said. The officer accompanied his brother for a car purchase he arranged on Facebook marketplace, when he was shot in what appears to be a botched holdup, police and sources said. The suspect pulled out his gun “almost immediately,” after the two arrived at the scene and “announced a robbery,” Assistant Police Chief Michael Baldassano told reporters Saturday night.

A variation on the Pizza Delivery robberies? Advertise a high value item and rob them when they show up with cash. Perp probably didn't expect an armed cop.

Too often, in these cities, the police are working in a war zone.

Sad story. I hope that the cop recovers fully. Depending on exactly where in the head and angles....it could be survivable or not. A police officer friend was shot in the head by an idiot doper over a stupid traffic stop. My friend managed to see the gun coming up from the perps lap as he approached the car window, and jerked his head a bit. The shot, ranging upward and outward from below the edge of the window caught him just inside his right jawbone about halfway from chin to ear, destroyed two molars and was deflected outward by the cheekbone...which is the bottom of the brain case. He is fine after some dental work and a bit of plastic surgery to minimize the scars. I asked how it felt....."Like getting hit in the head with a hammer." was the unsurprising answer. He continued as a street cop after than, although I haven't talked to him in a few years. I hope that the officer in NY has a similar good outcome. "Shot in the head" can mean many things.

Pretty simple solution...unless "Facebook" is refusing to divulge the personal information about the perp who placed the Bait Advert post.

Our local police ask people to use their parking lot where there is a camera set up to film any transaction. If the parties don't want to use a "safe zone" then perhaps it's a set up.

A white, female Willamette University professor is scheduled to host a veritable struggle session this month at a local library “for white people to reflect together on what it means to ‘do our work’ as white people.” The professor, Emily Drew, predictably “teaches courses about racism, white supremacy, immigration, and social change,” according to a biography. “Her research agenda revolves around understanding how race and racism get institutionalized, with the goal of helping to illuminate more effective strategies for interrupting systemic inequality,” the biography reads. She also performs work for Crossroads, an “antiracism” consulting form whose mission centers on “dismantling racism” and “building racial justice in institutions.”

Who says there’s no justice in politics? Alright, I say that, but there are occasionally some exceptions. New York is currently learning the hard way that actions have consequences after a large group of illegal immigrants occupied a hotel, causing the city’s government and residents to decry the situation. Per Fox News, the illegal immigrants were scheduled to be relocated to a new “migrant relief center” but refused to vacate the free rooms they were given. An encampment was also set up outside the hotel’s lobby. A group of illegal migrants who entered into the U.S. through the southern border, are refusing to leave their free NYC hotel

We saw some of the violence that went on in New York City in the wake of the release of the horrible video of the beating of Tyre Nichols. People are legitimately upset with the actions of the police in this case. But in NYC, you also had the radical leftists who are pushing their political agenda, no matter the reason or the cause. Everything is an argument about why the current order should be shifted to the left.

We reported on the video released in the beating death of Tyre Nichols, and the video was not good. The police officers involved, who were all black, were fired and charged with second-degree murder in his death. So, one would think that “justice” was being pursued. Nichols’ family reportedly called for peace, saying they didn’t want any disturbance and were satisfied with how the case had been proceeding so far. But some in New York weren’t listening. There was a march with folks carrying the signs of the Party of Socialism and Liberation. People from the unaffiliated BLM group in New York, and their leader Hawk Newsome, were also marching.

As I said a heartfelt goodbye to my 2014 Subaru Impreza Sport 5-Door last September, there was something I wondered as I walked off the used car lot: where are all the station wagons? As it turns out, in the year 2023, there aren’t that many station wagons on the road, period. “The standard data provider for new vehicle sales doesn’t even break down wagons anymore,” says Kevin Roberts, director of industry insights and analytics at CarGurus. “Most of the time, they’ll probably end up classified as a crossover or a hatchback.” Some data aggregators have “station wagon” as a trim or body variant, but you’ll be hard-pressed

Far-left protesters rioted in downtown Atlanta on Saturday evening, lighting a police car on fire and breaking business windows. The protest reportedly began as a “mostly peaceful” demonstration in response to the death of 26-year-old activist Manuel Teran, who was killed during a police sweep on Wedneday “in what the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said was an exchange of gunfire with police that wounded a state trooper,” according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC). The trooper remains unidentified and is reportedly in stable condition after being taken to a hospital for surgery. Prior to the rioting, protesters chanted, “No justice, no peace, no killer police” and “Stop cop city,”

President Biden’s Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is taking steps towards requiring state and local governments to submit “equity plans” to the federal government to display compliance to fair housing rules. President Biden’s HUD submitted a proposed rule that would require local governments to submit plans and reports relating to civil rights concerns or else risk losing subsidies from the federal government, the Washington Examiner reported.  The requirements are part of a rule called “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing” and are said to follow through on one portion of the 1968 Fair Housing Act, which mandated that localities “affirmatively further” fair housing in response to historical segregation.

Pete Buttigieg Says Biden Is TOO Successful

Transportation Secretary and Chasten’s wife — er, husband, Pete Buttigieg, went on NBC’s Meet the Press on Feb. 5 to preview Joe Biden’s State of the Union address. During that appearance, Buttigieg claimed that Joe Biden is just so wildly successful as president that his accomplishments cannot be easily distilled — hence Biden’s low approval ratings. Yes, Mayor Pete actually said Biden is extremely unpopular because he’s too good at his job. Buttigieg rambled out a justification of the Biden administration allowing an apparent Chinese spy balloon to cross the U.S. before shooting it down over the ocean (where, quite conveniently, no one can pick up tell-tale debris as enlightening evidence).

The art dealer representing Hunter Biden said the president's son had the potential to be one of the most influential painters of the modern era, but declined to say whether he'd cooperate with a congressional investigation into sales of the art. Georges Bergès, who has been overseeing the sale of Biden's paintings, said the 53-year-old would 'become one of the most consequential artists in this century.' His comments came as the New York Post pressed him on whether he would comply with requests from the House Oversight Committee, which asked to see the names of individuals who purchased Biden's artwork and the price they paid for it.
Top general says previous spy balloon

The military did not detect previous flights of Chinese spy balloons over the U.S. that took place during the Trump administration, a top general said Monday, due to a "gap" in the Defense Department's ability to track certain airborne objects. Gen. Glen VanHerck, head of North American Aerospace Defense Command, cited the issue as the reason that at least three spy balloon flights were not briefed to senior Trump officials at the time. "So those balloons, so every day as a NORAD commander it's my responsibility to detect threats to North America," he told reporters at the Pentagon. "I will tell you that we did not detect those threats.

This was again confirmed by a Washington Post-ABC News poll that found more than 60 percent of Americans say Biden has not accomplished much through the first half of his term: The poll finds that 62 percent of Americans think Biden has accomplished “not very much” or “little or nothing” during his presidency,

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Tex., joined a chorus of Republicans and conservatives voicing outrage over a controversial performance during Sunday night's Grammys which featured a singer dressed as the Devil. "Nonbinary" singer Sam Smith's duet with transgender artist Kim Petras for their song, "Unholy," featured Smith wearing Devil horns, while Petras gyrated in a cage against the backdrop of flames. Dancers dressed as demons bowed and crawled around Smith. "This…is…evil," Cruz wrote in response to a tweet of the performance shared by conservative commentator Liz Wheeler. "Don't fight the culture wars, they say. Meanwhile demons are teaching your kids to worship Satan. I could throw up," she remarked.

America's Civil War, which raged from 1861 to 1865, was by far the bloodiest conflict in our history. Original estimates put the death toll at about 620,000, including some 360,000 Union and 260,000 Confederate dead. More recent estimates of the carnage are even higher: 750,000 to 850,000. The Battle of Antietam on Sept. 17, 1862, at Sharpsburg, Maryland, still ranks as the bloodiest day in U.S. history, with nearly 23,000 casualties on both sides, including 3,675 killed in action. How does a country possibly recover from a calamity so huge?

By the time it tried to begin its ascent, the Boeing 767 cargo plane was approaching its landing. Quick-thinking pilots on the cargo plane were forced to swiftly make a go-around,

Ahead of President Joe Biden's State of the Union address on Tuesday night, Republican lawmakers told DailyMail.com that they want to see the commander-in-chief pledge to rein in federal spending and be 'truthful' with Americans about the current threats to U.S. homeland security. The president will be delivering his first speech to a divided Congress, tasked with bringing a unifying message to a Republican-controlled House of Representatives and a Democrat-held Senate. But before he even begins, Biden's address is already likely to be overshadowed by the recent diplomatic incident caused by a suspected Chinese 'spy balloon' floating over multiple U.S. states

It had been four long months since she has delivered her characteristic verbal devastation. She had almost faded away into oblivion, making few public appearances. It led many to wonder if she had it in her to deliver her infamous alphabet soups again. On January 31, Harris shut down all those wagging tongues as she made an ignominious comeback.
