The City Council wants to expand the Fair Fares program so more than 1 million eligible New Yorkers would be able to ride Big Apple subways and buses all on the government’s dime. The city-funded program reimburses the MTA for 50% of the fare — a cost those earning up to 150% of the federal poverty level aren’t required to pay out of pocket — which the council has proposed covering entirely in its city budget response. The council’s response does not detail how much it would need to fully cover those fares, but advocates at the Permanent Citizens Advisory

In a two-week period right after the 2024 election, the most energy expended by the transition team putting a cabinet together was toward Main Justice or the Dept of Justice. As a consequence, those around Lutnick and Wiles spent an incredible amount of time thinking about the Attorney General pick. Following an insider discussion, I spoke with several people about positions and appointments, focused on pointing out that the transition’s priorities were misplaced.

US Army Chief of Staff Gen.

George, 61, was nominated by former President Joe Biden and confirmed by the Senate for the Army chief of staff post in 2023. The Army chief of staff typically serves a four-year term.

On Thursday, we learned that President Donald Trump fired Pam Bondi as attorney general, making her the second Cabinet member he's axed in less than a month. Trump's official send-off was gracious, but the question remains: Why did he fire her?[snip] According to a report from the Daily Mail, the reason Trump gave Bondi the axe is that he believes Bondi tipped off Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) about the FBI's plans to release documents tied to his decade-old relationship with a suspected Chinese spy.[snip]"The White House wasn't pleased she was intervening due to her personal friendship with Swalwell."

Democrats are losing their grip on reality. I don’t mean that they’re going crazy. That ship sailed around the time they started saying “sex assigned at birth.” I mean, they’re literally losing the ability to shape the narratives that determine what most Americans perceive as “reality.” They know it’s happening, and they know exactly who to blame: a Trump-aligned billionaire named David Ellison. Last year, his film production company Skydance (which gave us the refreshingly patriotic “Top Gun: Maverick”) bought Paramount, giving Ellison ownership of CBS News. A few months later, he bought news site The Free Press and installed its founder — anti-woke, classical liberal Bari Weiss — as CBS’s editor-in-chief.

I'm so disappointed in NATO, because this was a test for NATO," said President Trump on March 26 while speaking about the Iran war. While President Trump has long criticized the UN and NATO, there is a major difference between the tremendous failings of the two organizations. A quick review of their structures shows that while the U.N. is probably impossible to course-correct, NATO is a very different story. The U.N. is bloated, paralyzed, and utterly incapable of meeting the challenges of the world today.

While Christmas — the birth date of the Messiah, Jesus Christ — marks the watershed of splitting calendar history into two epochs, B.C. and A.D., Easter marks the more important day for Christians and the world. Easter is the celebration of what is known as resurrection, which was living proof of God’s plan of life going beyond death for those who are redeemed, not by their works, but by their faith in the savior. The resurrection on the third day after Christ’s death transformed the world forever, providing proof that seeing is believing in “life after death.”

Despite being on the receiving end of attacks for three weeks and counting, Gulf Arab leaders are making headlines after making it unmistakably clear they have no intention of seeking a ceasefire with Iran. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has laid mines in the Strait of Hormuz, threatening a chokepoint through which roughly 20 percent of the world's oil supply flows, while simultaneously launching missile and drone strikes against Muslim-majority neighbors across the region. The Gulf states' refusal to stand down reflects a hard-won recognition: Iran's jihadi rulers maintain a hit list far beyond Israel and America, including the model for a peaceful Middle East pioneered by the Abraham Accords.
