Trump’s DOJ found evidence Dems are
skewing crime stats ahead of the midterm elections

Officials in President Trump’s Justice Department have been scrutinizing crime data in recent months — they’ve found evidence that Democratic politicians have been skewing crime stats for their own benefit ahead of the midterm elections, The Post has learned. Illinois Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker — a vocal opponent of Trump’s use of federal troops for both immigration enforcement and fighting big-blue-city crime — has lately touted double-digit declines in Chicago crime rates where “shootings and homicides on our highways are down 60, 70, 80% depending on where you look.” But the number of felonies in Chicago — not to mention New York, Los Angeles and Portland, Ore. —

Far-left President of Colombia Gustavo Petro accused President Donald Trump of being “rude and ignorant” to Colombia after Trump called him an “illegal drug dealer” on Sunday.In a Truth Social post on Sunday, President Trump accused Petro of being an “illegal drug leader strongly encouraging the massive production of drugs” in Colombia and denounced that Petro’s administration has done nothing to stop drug trafficking despite the United States’ large scale payments and subsidies. As a result, President Trump announced that he would suspend all U.S. payments and subsidies to Colombia.
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett predicted Monday that the ongoing government shutdown is “likely to end sometime this week” but warned the Trump administration may impose “stronger measures” if the funding impasse continues.Speaking on CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Hassett suggested Democrats were waiting to vote to reopen the government until after this weekend’s nationwide “No Kings” protests against President Donald Trump. White House economic advisor Hassett says shutdown could end this week
The comments came as the federal government enters the third week of the shutdown, which has continued with no clear end in sight amid a partisan fight in the Senate over federal funding priorities.
Hamas, in short, has decided to eliminate any Palestinian opposed to terrorism and supportive of coexistence with Israel.
Hamas's actions also demonstrate that the terror group is determined to exploit the current ceasefire to reassert its control over the Gaza Strip.
The silence, or apathy, of the international community, including so-called pro-Palestinian groups and individuals, towards Hamas's crimes only encourages the terror group to proceed with its crackdown on its own people. The silence of the world, in addition, sends a message to the Palestinians that they should refrain from rising against Hamas and other terror groups in the Gaza Strip.

President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and US Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff — the pair largely responsible for Trump’s Israel-Hamas peace deal — provided rare insight into how the administration is trying to disarm the terror group and reestablish secure leadership in war-torn Gaza.
Kushner and Witkoff explained how they brokered the 20-point deal and what the next steps are on the Sunday episode of “60 Minutes” ahead of their trip to Israel on Monday.Kushner warned that they expect Hamas to “try to reconstitute and take back their positions” within the power vacuum.
I’m extremely proud to be British and utterly unapologetic about that pride. Britain taught the world what freedom means. But often these days I look across the pond at the United States and think you guys might be on to something.
I’m not claiming you get everything right, but America still believes that leadership means taking decisions, not dodging them.
It’s that courage to act, even when it’s unpopular, that makes a nation strong. Britain on the other hand is being led by a government that mistakes timidity for wisdomKeir Starmer took office 16 months ago, and Britain has watched him surrender our sovereignty -

USSS spotted a suspicious stand near the AF1 zone in Palm Beach,” Patel wrote in a post on X, which included a screenshot of a Fox News article. “The FBI is investigating.”
In a statement to Fox News, Patel explained that the Secret Service “discovered what appeared to be an elevated hunting stand” that had a view of the President exiting Air Force One. Patel added that “no individuals were located at the scene.”
“Prior to the President’s return to West Palm Beach, USSS discovered what appeared to be an elevated hunting stand within sight line of the Air Force One landing zone,” Patel said in his statement,

This morning, the headlines were dominated by Colombian President Gustavo Petro's claims that one of the strikes against vessels of Venezuelan-based drug cartels contained a Colombian 'fisherman.'No matter that this allegation can't be documented, and happened over a month ago, the claim was immediately picked up online. It will undoubtedly be the topic of discussion over the next few days. As Rush Limbaugh was famous for saying, "It isn't the nature of evidence, it is the seriousness of the charge" that matters. Here, there is literally no evidence, but the allegation of "murder' is pretty serious, so here we go.
Israel carried out “significant and extensive” waves of airstrikes on the Gaza Strip on Sunday, in response to what it said was Hamas’ “blatant violation of the ceasefire.”
More than 20 Israeli airstrikes were reported in Khan Younis in the south of the territory, according to reports.
“Our planes have begun a significant and extensive wave of attacks on dozens of targets throughout the Gaza Strip,” Israeli journalist Hallel Bitton Rosen wrote on X. It comes after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) accused Hamas of firing on it in the southern city of Rafah. “Terrorists fired an anti-tank missile and gunfire toward IDF troops,” the IDF said,
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen faced two more challenges to her position in the European Parliament last week. She received support from just over half the members of the 720-seat European Parliament in both votes. Neither of the motions of no confidence had a chance of securing the two-thirds majority required to eject the President but still they served as the latest reminder of the increasingly fractured European Parliament and its growing populist factions.
The Patriots for Europe group, a conservative-populist faction which participated in the parliamentary motion,
Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta has announced a set of upcoming parental control features aimed at safeguarding teens’ conversations with AI characters on its platforms, including Facebook and Instagram.TechCrunch reports that in a bid to address growing concerns about the impact of AI interactions on teen mental health, Meta has unveiled a suite of parental control features that will be rolled out next year.

Mamdani’s pathetic plans for NYC schools

Zohran Mamdani dropped his big education “plan” last week — and of course his vision amounts to nothing but bigger spending.
He embraced the perverse state class-size law, which forces New York City (and no other system) to hire thousands more “educators” to no real purpose except to enrich the United Federation of Teachers.
Class sizes are already below the law’s limits in nearly all the city’s (too many) failing schools; it’s the successful ones that will have to boost their teacher-student ratios.
The law may well even require the “crown jewel” elite high schools (Stuyvesant, Bronx Science, Brooklyn Tech, etc.) to admit fewer kids,

Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger cast her support behind open borders, stating that she wants “to protect every person who might be interested” in coming to the United States.
“I certainly want to protect every person who might be interested in arriving at the United States, claiming asylum, working here, coming as a refugee — whatever the parameters or the need that begins their desire to move to our country,” Spanberger said in a video posted to X by Greg Price. In response to Spanberger’s comments in the video, several people, such as White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, pointed out that Democrats are “committed to
I don't know if you've seen anything about Barack Obama's presidential center. But if you didn't, he posted about it on Saturday. It's been a boondoggle now for some time. It is, in fact, the perfect representation of Barack Obama.
Here's a Newsweek headline on the project: "Behind Schedule, Over Budget, and Mired in Lawsuits."The local community was also unhappy with it or had concerns. One resident called it a "monstrosity," taking away from the beautiful area that once was there. So much for the feelings of the locals. Guess those got lost in the narcissism.
A gang of brazen thieves dropped the priceless Eugénie Crown outside the Louvre in Paris during a jaw-dropping daylight heist of the world's most visited museum.
The group of criminals swiped priceless items, including a necklace and a brooch once belonging to Napoleon Bonaparte and his wife Josephine, in broad daylight, forcing the tourist attraction to shut its doors.
The raid, which took place at around 9.30am on Sunday, saw the thieves brazenly break into the art museum, which is also home to the Mona Lisa, by propping a huge freight elevator up against its walls, according to an investigating source.
The group of several 'highly organised criminals' arrived on scooters, masking their
A Socialist New York Would Weaken Us All

"Together, we can tax the rich, heal the sick, house the poor, defund the police & build a socialist New York,” Zohran Mamdani tweeted in 2020. On his current mayoral campaign website, he calls for shifting the city’s tax burden to “richer and whiter neighborhoods.” These aren’t slip-ups or stray remarks. They are at the heart of his campaign for mayor of New York City this November. And if he wins, the fallout won’t just be felt here. It will ripple far beyond the five boroughs, dragging down not only New York but the nation as well. I know a lot of Americans will shrug and say: “Well, New Yorkers
UK Police Warn Brits Against Raising Flags

Not Hamas or Al Qaeda flags. Obviously. The bad kind of flags. The flags of England.
After a rash of incidents of the flags of England being flown in public and police officers being caught on video seizing them or otherwise removing those flying them, the Sussex police have a statement.
“In less fractious times, seeing your flag normally instils feelings of belonging and pride,” Sussex Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) Katy Bourne said. “It is clear, however, that in some places, the appearance of flags is making some communities feel deliberately targeted and intimidated. That may or may not be the intention of those putting the flags up but
The Hammerstein Ballroom in midtown Manhattan hums with the sound of walkers, canes, and Medicare-approved stability sneakers shuffling on the brocade carpet. Several busloads worth of gray-haired radicals are milling about the historic auditorium. Some have shelled out thousands of dollars to be here for a chance to see their favorite MSNBC personalities denounce Donald Trump in person. Liquor drinks are extra. The exorbitantly priced bar opens at 10:30 a.m. We're going to need it.

The Ridiculous No Kings Protest

It’s difficult to think of a more effective way to illustrate the moral and intellectual emptiness of the American left than to have them march around demanding an end to an institution our founding fathers abolished 250 years ago. This is how the official “No Kings” website described what happened on Saturday: “On October 18, more than seven million of us rose up at more than 2,700 events in all 50 states, DC, and cities worldwide to say: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.” These folks are a little late to the party.

Fox News broke the story that the FBI is now investigating a hunting stand the U.S. Secret Service discovered with a “direct line of sight” to where the president exits Air Force One in Florida at the Palm Beach International Airport. According to Fox News: “Agents found the stand on Thursday, and the FBI is now leading an investigation into the discovery. FBI Director Kash Patel said the hunting stand has not yet been connected to any individual.
Leftists are so obsessed with the Trump collusion hoax that they are seeing ‘connections’ in the most ridiculous of places, including the choice of tie that War Secretary Pete Hegseth wore yesterday. Not surprisingly, the latest conspiracy theory regarding Trump-Russia backfired.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, a high-stakes meeting Friday involving President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy took place in the Cabinet Room of the White House, a departure from the typical Oval Office meetings that the President holds with foreign leaders.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) quietly signed legislation last month that will shield local utility companies from responsibility for wildfires and pass billions of dollars in costs to consumers and victims.
The Los Angeles Times noted that “fine print” in a 254-page bill known as SB 254 — a massive bill compared to most state legislation — lets Southern California Edison and other utilities charge consumers for wildfire damage that exceeds $21 billion,[snip] The legislation has revived concerns about the fact that Newsom and other politicians in the state have taken large campaign contributions from the utilities.
The Democrats (and their socialist and Communist allies) mounted “no kings” protests yesterday, just as they did in July. The July protests accomplished absolutely nothing, and yesterday’s will be no different. The New York Times kept up a brave front, headlining “‘No More Trump!’: Protesters Denouncing the President Unite Across the Country.” But in fact, the protests were mostly the occasion for epic trolling.
