An on-duty postal worker was stabbed to death in a broad-daylight attack Thursday in Harlem, police and sources said. The 36-year-old victim was stabbed multiple times at the intersection of Malcolm X Boulevard and 118th Street around 2:40 p.m., authorities said. The gravely wounded man — who law enforcement sources confirmed was an on-duty USPS worker — was rushed to Harlem Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries, cops said.
A 16-year-old boy was critically injured when he was stabbed five times in the chest and abdomen, possibly with a screwdriver, Sunday evening in Brooklyn, according to cops and law enforcement sources. The attack happened around 6:50 p.m. at the intersection of Carrol Street and Rochester Avenue in Crown Heights when an assailant or assailants assaulted the teen victim, cops said. The boy was rushed to Kings County Hospital, where he is listed in critical but stable condition, police said.
Can America build big things anymore?Donald Trump can prove that the answer is still yes — by revolutionizing how America builds energy infrastructure. In the process, he’ll transform our economy and secure our global leadership. Trump’s opportunity centers on his excellent picks for three key federal agencies: Doug Burgum at the Interior Department, Lee Zeldin at the Environmental Protection Agency and Chris Wright at the Energy Department. He should charge them with circumventing the National Environmental Policy Act — the biggest barrier to US infrastructure and energy dominance

The latest illegal-migrant atrocity should remove any doubt: It’s beyond time to end sanctuary-city policies in New York. The appalling heinousness of that atrocity is simply unimaginable, even by Gotham standards. Police say Sebastian Zapeta-Calil, a Guatemalan illegal migrant, set a sleeping woman ablaze aboard an F train at the Coney Island station, then watched in satisfaction as she burned alive. A medieval level of savagery — and a predictably sick outcome of woefully misguided policies that have made the city a haven for border jumpers.
Cleanup in Terminal 3! A group of travelers and one employee threw punches, grabbed hair and whacked each other with “Wet Floor” signs in a wild, caught-on-camera brawl reminiscent of a WWE match inside Chicago O’Hare International Airport last week. Insane video shared on social media of the Dec. 12 melee shows three men — including an employee in a blue shirt — seemingly teaming up against one man in a white T-shirt inside American Airlines Terminal Three.

Page Six in a statement on Friday — after we exclusively reported that the couple has parted ways — “Kimberly and I will never stop caring for each other and will always keep a special bond.” He added of Guilfoyle, who is now headed to Greece as US ambassador under Donald Trump, “I could not be more proud of her and the important role she’ll continue to play in my father‘s administration.”
President-elect Donald Trump ripped convicted murderer and former stripper Crystal Mangum for lying about being raped by a trio of Duke lacrosse players, saying she “destroyed” their lives. “Woman admits to totally fabricating accusations in the horrible Duke Lacrosse Case,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “She destroyed the lives of these young men.”
Controversial psychologist Jordan Peterson has fled Canada as liberals push to pass legislation that he says will suppress free speech and turn the country into a “totalitarian hellhole.” Speaking in a recent episode of his daughter’s show, “The Mikhaila Peterson Podcast,” Peterson said he opted to move to the US over the contentious bill, C-63, and ongoing feud with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. “The issue with the College of Psychologists is very annoying, to say the least, and the new legislation that the liberals are attempting to push through, Bill C-63, we’d all be living in a totalitarian hellhole if it passes,” Peterson said.
The Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General confirmed the presence of at least 26 FBI informants in Washington, DC, during the Jan. 6, 2021, storming of the Capitol, but added that there was no evidence of undercover bureau agents there.
Of those informants, four entered the Capitol in the midst of the riot, 13 went into a restricted area and nine had not been engaged in illegal activity, according to a report from the inspector general released Thursday. “We found no evidence in the materials we reviewed or the testimony we received showing or suggesting that the FBI had undercover employees in the various protest crowds

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer demanded answers from the Selective Service agency for reposting a vulgar social media screed last month suggesting the US may be on a similar trajectory to Nazi Germany. Although the report was subsequently scrubbed from the Selective Service’s official X account, Comer (R-Ky.) is keen on obtaining additional information on the matter and wants to ensure the perpetrator is fired. “The Committee is deeply disturbed that an independent federal agency, tasked with registering and maintaining a system of individuals potentially subject to military conscription if authorized by the President and Congress, would re-post a wholly unsubstantiated, false, and contemptible claim,”

The Biden administration suggested that there may be no drones over New Jersey at all — as it sought to tamp down growing frustration over a lack of answers from the feds over sightings. “We have not been able to, and neither have state and local law enforcement authorities, been able to corroborate any of the reported visual sightings,” White House national security communications adviser John Kirby told reporters during a briefing Thursday.
“Upon review of available imagery, it appears many of the reports of sightings are actually manned aircraft that are being operated lawfully,” he added.

Joe Biden is preparing to permanently ban new offshore oil and gas development in key U.S. coastal waters, which will be “difficult to revoke protections for sensitive marine areas.”
This last-ditch effort to block President-elect Donald Trump’s energy agenda is expected to be enshrined in an executive order, marking yet another chapter in Biden’s war on American energy.
Sources familiar with the plan have revealed that Biden’s order will leverage a 72-year-old law—the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act—to solidify protections that are notoriously difficult to reverse, Bloomberg reported.
Liz Cheney and Bennie Thompson — come on down and collect your door prizes.
Cheney, the former congresswoman from Wyoming who burned down every principal she ever held dear to engage in the J6 investigative crusade, and Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), who chaired the Select Committee investigating a relatively mundane protest at the Capitol, are set to accept some very shiny participation awards.Joe Biden, currently serving as president in name only, will award the two committee circus ringleaders with the nation's second highest civilian award — the Presidential Citizens Medal.
The dynamic duo are two of 20 individuals set to be honored with the award on Thursday.
This is truly chilling, especially in the wake of today’s terror attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas.
A former CIA officer named Sarah Adams was interviewed on the Shawn Ryan podcast just two weeks ago, and warned that there are more than a thousand al-Qaeda sleepers in the United States right now who are planning major attacks on the homeland.
She clearly implicates Biden’s open southern border as the entry point for these potential terrorists and suggests that they have developed new tactics and bombs that can evade detection through traditional means.
Zero Hedge has more details:
NEW ORLEANS - Authorities held a press conference Thursday morning (Jan. 2), providing updates on the Bourbon Street terror attack that claimed the lives of 14 victims and injured 35 others early New Year’s Day.
FBI Deputy Director Christopher Raia confirmed that 14 victims died in the attack, along with the suspect, Shamsud Din Jabbar, bringing the total to 15 fatalities.
“This was a premeditated, evil act,” Raia told reporters. Officials revealed that Jabbar posted five videos between 1:20 a.m. and 3:02 a.m. on New Year’s Day, proclaiming support for ISIS.
In the first video, Raia says Jabbar expressed a desire to kill his friends and family, but ultimately desired
It seems like just this summer that I wished Presidentish Joe Biden a "fondless farewell" as "easily the worst human being to hold the office of president of the United States." [Steve, it was just last summer —Editor] But now that the man whose "ability to f*** things up" has never been underestimated at this site prepares to leave the office he barely held, let's reminisce about the things we won't miss the most.
"Biden exited the stage last night," I wrote of his too-late-for-primetime DNC farewell address, "largely forgotten before he'd walked onto it." He'll vacate the White House the same way on the morning of Jan. 20.
The disgraced comedian Kathy Griffin thinks it is only a matter of time before she is sent to an internment camp.
In an interview with Chicago’s WGN radio station this week, Griffin urged her fans to buy tickets to her latest tour, My Life On the PTSD List, before she is taken away by authorities.
“Come see me before I’m in one of those internment camp,” she said. “I’m on the enemies list. That’s very obvious.”
“He was very, very scared when I did a parody photo of him and a Halloween mask and a lot of ketchup.
Is she drunk? Heavily medicated?
Fresh off of a hip transplant, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi posted a bizarre video to X on Thursday claiming she was on her way to DC to represent her constituents and share “San Francisco values.”
San Francisco values = Needles in the street, homelessness and rampant retail theft.
84-year-old Pelosi could barely open her eyes as she heavily slurred her words.“Hi, it’s Nancy. I’m on my way to Washington to proudly represent the people of San Francisco in Congress. I’m honored to do so to share our San Francisco values,”
Emboldened by correctly predicting Kamala would get the debate questions in advance (oh, I apologize, ABC, it was just the topics, not the questions, so it’s all good and you smell like a rose), I’m going to go way out on a limb with another prediction: Joe Biden will issue mass pardons to the J6 inmates. Before you say I’m crazy, here are numerous reasons why he might do it:
It steals Donald Trump’s thunder of doing it himself five minutes after the inauguration
Many J6 inmates are getting out anyway in a few weeks
The J6 insurrection narrative is going to collapse as the evidence comes out
A new report released by the Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight into the January 6 pipe bomber shows the FBI stopped looking for the suspect in 2021 and covered up evidence.
The FBI is now refusing to cooperate with Congressional investigators.
In September, former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino said according to a whistleblower, after the pipe bombs were found at the RNC and DNC headquarters, “assets on the ground, including a whistleblower, was briefed about the pipe bombs the next day and show a picture of a guy in a hoodie.”
The brother of the terrorist who launched the deadly car attack on Bourbon Street in New Orleans says that “radicalization” is to blame for his kin’s rampage.
Abdur Jabbar, 24, of Beaumont, Texas, told The New York Times that his brother Shamsud-Din Jabbar — who killed at least 15 people in the New Year’s Day attack — converted to Islam at an early age. (Photos)
The younger Jabbar told the newspaper that what his brother “did does not represent Islam. This is more some type of radicalization, not religion.”
Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters marched in New York City on New Year’s Day for “intifada,” blocking Sixth Avenue in Manhattan just hours after a terror attack in New Orleans, Louisiana, and an explosion in Las Vegas, Nevada. (X's, Videos) The Times of Israel reported:
Attendees chanted “Resistance is glorious — we will be victorious,” “We will honor all our martyrs,” and “Gaza, you make us proud.” They carried signs that said “Zionism is cancer,” “No war on Iran,” and “End all US aid to Israel.”
“There is only one solution — Intifada revolution,” they chanted, using a common refrain
The FBI has remained silent on whether it will fire or discipline the agent who initially told the media and public that the shocking New Year's Day attack in New Orleans was "not a terrorist event," before the agency quickly backtracked and reported the attack was in fact under investigation as a terror incident. Fox News Digital reached out to the FBI's press office and press secretary on Thursday and Friday, inquiring whether New Orleans field office FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Alethea Duncan would face termination or disciplinary action over her initial claim the attack was not connected

Ummm - - yeah - - right. Simce when does someone have to "accept" your resignation - - in order for you to quit? Snake Sullivan epitomizes the corruption, sleaziness, and ineptness of the entire Despicable Joe administration.
