Why I will never be governor of New Jersey

In Army basic training in 1968, I was involved in a scandal. The commander had posted a notice on the unit bulletin board. That notice had been removed, surreptitiously, by someone, and sent to a national magazine, which, if I recall correctly, published it. The notice was to warn trainees to avoid a certain house of ill repute near the base (post). Since the rural house had no street address, the warning letter had resorted to giving precise, specific instructions, including landmarks, which had the effect of telling the reader exactly how to get to the place we were ordered to avoid it.

President Trump said Tuesday that Harvard University has reached a tentative deal with his administration to restore $2.4 billion in frozen federal grants.
America’s oldest college will spend about $500 million to launch and operate trade schools, ending a clash over issues including discrimination against Jewish students and the use of race-based affirmative action, Trump said.
“This would be a giant trade school, or series of trade schools. It would be run by Harvard,” the president told reporters in the Oval Office.
The release of NJ gubernatorial candidate Mikie Sherrill’s full military file is being investigated by the National Archives’ watchdog after she complained it was leaked as part of a political hit-job.
Will Brown, acting inspector general for the National Archives, announced a formal inquiry into how the files for the New Jersey Democratic rep got into the hands of a key ally to her Republican opponent, Jack Ciattarelli.
Sherrill’s record was released after it was revealed the governor hopeful was forbidden from walking in commencement.

“The illegal release of my military records — including my Social Security number — was no mistake,” Sherrill said on X earlier in the day Tuesday.
When Americans consider “charity” they picture their contributions providing clothing for the poor or food for the hungry. When they hear the word “missionary" they picture Christians going abroad to save souls. However, these terms mean very different things to the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization that President Trump has twice attempted to label as terrorist. In radical Islamist teaching, zakat (charity) is not simply about helping the poor; it is about advancing Islam. The aim is to expand the ummah -- the worldwide Muslim community -- through dawah (proselytizing).
Americans are right to be deeply concerned about what is happening in our own country.

Awaited Policies Might Rescue America
from Its Debt Abyss 5 replies
America’s national debt is a ticking time bomb, exploding right under our noses. As of September 2025, the gross national debt has ballooned past $37 trillion, a staggering figure that’s not just numbers on a ledger but a crushing burden on every hardworking American. Interest payments alone are gobbling up 17% of federal spending, sucking the life out of our economy like a vampire at a blood bank.
But here’s the good news: President Donald J. Trump, in his triumphant return to the White House, is unleashing a crypto revolution that’s poised to slay this debt dragon. These bold policies aren’t some pie-in-the-sky gamble—
Fact Checking Trump’s Climate Claims
10 replies
President Donald Trump spoke at the United Nations last week in an address that the world needed to hear. It was of course picked apart, particularly his claims about global warming. He twisted facts and made “false claims,” say the gatekeepers of the Great Climate Narrative. Is this so?
Let’s look:
Trump called the global warming scare a “hoax.” Not a word we would use, but he’s closer to the truth than the climatistas. It’s obvious to those with open minds that the global warming tale is the product of academic fraud, gross exaggerations,

Things to Ever Happen to Our Great Republican Party’ 9 replies
In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: “Self proclaimed New York City Communist, Zohran Mamdani, who is running for Mayor, will prove to be one of the best things to ever happen to our great Republican Party. He is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City. Remember, he needs the money from me, as President, in order to fulfill all of his FAKE Communist promises. He won’t be getting any of it, so what’s the point of voting for him? This ideology has failed, always, for thousands of years. It will fail again, and that’s guaranteed! President DJT.”
Johnson referred to the impending possible government shutdown as “the stupidest shutdown,” explaining that Republican requests have been made crystal clear.
“We don’t have a deal yet. [If] we don’t get a deal by tomorrow, the government shuts down tomorrow,” he said, referring to September 30 at midnight.
“[The] President [is] saying, ‘Hey, listen, let’s finish the deal. Let’s have a short term pause button for six or seven weeks, November 21.’ Democrats are not willing to do that. Instead, because they can’t get all their demands immediately, Chuck Schumer says they’re going to shut it all down,” the congressman said.
Would a guy whose brain is being held hostage by the Tricknology and Jedi Mind Tricks of Benjamin Netanyahu write a letter expressing his deep love for Israel and suggesting better ways for the Israeli prime minister to "message" his country to Gen Z? Unlikely. In fact, it’s the exact opposite. Just a few months before he was murdered by an assassin's bullet, Charlie Kirk wrote an effusive letter to Prime Minister Netanyahu about his love for Israel. Netanyahu mentioned the letter in the days following Kirk's murder and on Monday he released it.
The Trump administration just pulled off something most Americans probably didn’t think was possible: shrinking the federal bureaucracy in a massive and meaningful way. On Tuesday, more than 100,000 federal workers are expected to walk out the door through a deferred resignation program, marking the largest single-year reduction in the civilian federal workforce since World War II. Factor in layoffs, buyouts, early retirements, and natural attrition, and the government could shed roughly 275,000 employees by the end of 2025.
Republican Winsome Earle-Sears, current lieutenant governor of Virginia and candidate to become the commonwealth's next governor, has released a brutal new campaign ad calling out her Democrat opponent for pouring gasoline on the unchecked rage that's driving too many on the left to commit acts of political violence. That opponent, Abigail Spanberger, has been caught on camera several times in recent weeks urging her supporters to let their rage fuel them into taking action. As we've seen all too often in recent weeks, months, and years,
Iran used to be a very sophisticated country...and then, in 1979, the Mullahs moved in. While Tehran is still a fairly modern city, the moment you step out of it, you enter the backwaters of what almost fifty years of Islamic extremism will do to a nation. Add in the Mullah’s genocidal goals for Israel, and the fact that they’ve been fomenting terrorism worldwide for their entire existence, and you have a country that badly needs a powerful intervention.
Donald Trump began that intervention when, partnering with Israel, he completely destroyed Iran’s military. The Israelis wiped out Iran’s defensive abilities, its command structure (both people and infrastructure), and its nuclear scientists.

Frail former President Bill Clinton has sparked new fears for his health by being spotted with a portable defibrillator – mere weeks after the 79-year-old was subpoenaed to testify before a congressional committee investigating the Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking scandal, RadarOnline.com can reveal. Now, experts believe the ex-commander-in-cheat's heart is buckling under the stress of having to spill his guts before the House Oversight Committee probing his chummy past relationship with dead pedophile Epstein, potentially making him the 24th person associated with the billionaire creep to drop dead under murky circumstances.
The NFL beclowned itself again by announcing that anti-American Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny will headline the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show.
As a reminder, Bad Bunny (real name: Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio) previously said he would not make a U.S. stop on his world tour for fear his fans might get caught in ICE raids.
By saying this, the rapper implied that his fan base is largely comprised of illegal aliens who streamed across the southern border.
As it is, Bad Bunny has a consistent track record of being on the wrong side of history: In addition to supporting unfettered illegal immigration, he championed the race-hustling Black Lives Matter grift and endorsed
An anti-ICE protester in Massachusetts forgot to put her car in park while yelling at agents making an arrest of an illegal alien and her car rolled into a lake and sank, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement source tells Fox News.
It happened in Upton, Massachusetts, a small town in Worcester County, roughly 40 miles west of Boston.
Video and a photo, provided to Fox News by an ICE source, captured the incident.
In the clip, a voice can be heard saying, “Well that sucks. Look at that, Lucy. Her car got lost,” as the woman’s car drifts farther into the water.

$1M into $470M reserve fund aimed to protect taxpayers 27 replies
When the Obama Foundation snagged a sweetheart deal to build its beleaguered Obama Presidential Center in a Chicago public park, it pledged to create a $470 million reserve fund to spare taxpayers should the project ever go belly up.
But new tax filings show the foundation has only deposited $1 million into the fund and has not added to it in years, with critics saying the empty promise could potentially leave Chicagoans on the hoo(snip)
Under its agreement with the city, the foundation was required to create the fund, known as an endowment, to take control of a sprawling 19.3-acre section of Jackson Park — often described as Chicago’s Central Park
JPMorgan Chase & Co now employs more workers in Texas than in New York state — something one top city business advocate called a “scary” development.
And it’s not just the investment giant, there are more jobs in the banking sector in the Lone Star State than in New York, once the unrivaled financial services capital of the country and world, said Kathryn Wylde, president and CEO of the Partnership for New York City.
“Right now, the big challenge is are we going to remain competitive for jobs?” Wylde said Sunday on WABC 770 AM the “Cats Roundtable” program. “The financial services industry, they’re our biggest taxpayers and major employers
Over the weekend, the Wall Street Journal offered a deeply reported analysis of the young socialists who are fueling the Democratic Party’s lurch to the left in the past years, tracing it back to economic anxieties of the Great Recession. There’s an eye-opening description of a meeting of communists in Philadelphia:
On a recent evening, 15 comrades from the Northwest Philadelphia cell of the Revolutionary Communists of America gathered for their weekly meeting in a classroom at Thomas Jefferson University.
The Republic of Ireland will offer families of supposed asylum seekers up to €10,000 to drop their claims and voluntarily leave the country, in an apparent admission that the government’s open borders policies have gone too far.
Minister for Justice Jim O’Callaghan has signed an order to increase the voluntary return grant for alleged asylum seekers, increasing the payout to €2,500 ($2,900) for individuals or €10,000 ($11,700) for families who willingly drop their asylum claims and leave the country, The Irish Times reports.
This is nearly double the previous payouts, which stood at €1,500 ($1,800) per person or €6,000 ($7,000) per family, prior to the order from Minister O’Callaghan.
Jimmy Kimmel Live! enjoyed a short-lived ratings bonanza after his triumphant post-suspension return to ABC. Kimmel's late night show returned to screens on Tuesday with record-breaking ratings, after he was suspended for five days over remarks he made about Charlie Kirk's assassination. As many as 6.5 million people tuned to Kimmel on Tuesday, which was a three times the show's usual audience and the biggest in over a decade. (Snip) Notably, Kimmel lost 73 percent of the viewers in the coveted demographic of adults aged 25-54, getting just 465,000. Typically, Kimmel gets about 1.8 million viewers each night on television.
They say the only things in life that are certain are death and taxes, but I think I could add a third axiom to that list: President Donald Trump will vow to fix a problem, Democrats will claim it isn't a problem, or that he's an authoritarian overreacting. Trump will fix it anyway; they'll admit he was half-right, and the cycle will start over. This happened with the overrun border and a National Guard presence in Washington, DC, and it's bound to happen in Portland, Oregon, too.

A government shutdown fast approaching, Democratic and Republican congressional leaders left a White House meeting with President Donald Trump Monday afternoon showing no sign of compromising from their entrenched positions in order to avoid a lapse in funding.
If government funding legislation isn’t passed by Congress and signed by Trump on Tuesday night, many government offices across the nation will be temporarily shuttered and nonexempt federal employees will be furloughed, adding to the strain on workers and the nation’s economy.
The defense won’t waive its right to a preliminary hearing but needs more time before a date is set, the court-appointed attorney for Tyler James Robinson, the 22-year-old man charged with the murder of conservative leader Charlie Kirk, said Monday during a Utah County court waiver hearing.
Kathryn Nester, Robinson’s lawyer, told Judge Tony Graf in the Provo courtroom that she needs at least another month to weigh through a massive amount of documents before further discussion about a preliminary hearing.
Graf set another waiver hearing for 10 a.m. Mountain Standard Time Oct. 30, and the prosecution and defense had no objections to the date and time.
