Dan Osborn, a Nebraska "independent" Senate hopeful with deep ties to Democrats, has faced criticism for funneling a significant amount of campaign funds to his family members, including almost $250,000 to his wife and her political consulting firm. Across both his failed bid in 2024 and his current bid in the 2026 cycle, Osborn, his wife, daughter and sister-in-law have raked in north of $370,000, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings reviewed by Fox News Digital. The money originates from Osborn's campaign and his affiliated political action committee, the Working Class Heroes Fund. In July, Osborn, who is trying

The Minneapolis City Council debated the renewal of two liquor licenses on Tuesday, focusing on two hotels allegedly housing federal agents during Operation Metro Surge. In January, protesters descended on both the Depot and the Canopy hotels, believing Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were staying inside. Some protesters faced off with Minnesota state troopers after an unlawful assembly was declared. Hospitality union members spoke to the council about the license renewals, explaining that some employees from the hotels have expressed fear over ICE agents staying there. "We believe that a liquor license is a privilege and that privilege should be

Mayor Zohran Mamdani laid out two potential paths Tuesday to close what he says is a $5.4 billion dollar budget gap in New York City. In one, Albany would raise taxes on the richest New Yorkers. In the other, the City would raise property taxes for the first time since the late 2000s. The City could generate $3.7 billion by raising the property tax by 9.5%, Mamdani said. (Snip) “If we do not go down the first path, the city will be forced down a second, more harmful path. Faced with no other choice…we would have to raise property taxes.

Palantir is relocating its headquarters to Miami from Denver, the company announced Tuesday in a post to social media platform X. The software analytics firm is the latest big business to migrate to South Florida as executives seek to transform the region into a hub for innovation. Florida, which offers a friendlier tax environment, has welcomed a wave of billionaires in recent years. The region is also gaining more executives as California deliberates over a 5% wealth tax on residents with a net worth exceeding $1 billion. Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly bought a mansion in Florida and
Breaking: Rhode Island Hockey Game Shooter

The utterly despicable and mentally ill shooter who murdered his wife and children during a mass shooting event in Rhode Island identified as transgender. The lesson that comes from encouraging mentally ill people to indulge their insanity and to express violent hatred against those who do not affirm their illness is written in the blood of children killed at the high school hockey game. How many transgender shooters does it take to stop leftists from lauding the delusion that one can change one’s biological sex and demand everyone agree? It seems that shooter Robert Dorgan’s wife and children did not

NEW YORK CITY – The state government will help pull New York City out of a financial crisis with a $1.5 billion in support over two years, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Monday. The announcement comes just one day before Mayor Zohran Mamdani is expected to reveal his preliminary budget, which must address a massive shortfall. Mamdani initially estimated the budget gap was around $12 billion, but recently revised his projection to around $7 billion. The massive sum includes funding for youth programming, sales tax receipts, public health and other priorities yet to be determined, Hochul and Mamdani said. “A strong

PORTLAND, Ore. — A petition to ban hunting in Oregon is picking up steam. Animal rights advocates are fighting to change the law in Oregon, including banning most hunting, fishing and animal research. One of the people leading the charge of getting this petition out there says they have been trying to get this on the ballot for years, getting more and more signatures each time, though he knows it won’t likely pass. Supporters call the proposal the PEACE Act, short for People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions. “We really want to make Oregon the first state to
Colorado bill would fully legalize prostitution replies

DENVER — A bill introduced into the Colorado State Senate last week would make Colorado the first state in the U.S. to fully decriminalize prostitution if it became law. Senate Bill 26-097 would require the entire state to decriminalize “commercial sexual activity among consenting adults,” both for people who buy sex and who would sell it. This would be unique in the U.S., as the only other states with any form of legal prostitution, Maine and Nevada, still have certain rules around it. In Nevada, for instance, prostitution is only legal within licensed houses of prostitution, or brothels, and some
The Underwhelming 2028 Democrat Presidential
Field, A Second Look

It’s about time for another check-in on the Democrat 2028 presidential field. Kamala Harris, the former vice president who made news by “changing the names of her KamalaHQ social media accounts to “headquarters,” using “headquarters_67” on X, where she already had 1.1 million followers, an apparent nod to the viral “6-7” slang term used by Gen Alpha and Gen Z.” No doubt, my single digit aged nephews will be very impressed. Unfortunately for Harris, they won’t be able to vote in 2028. As a female, half-African American, she is the only presidential candidate who has any sizable black support, which

Mark Hamill is under fire from some "Star Wars" fans after his reported autograph prices sparked sticker shock and sharp criticism online. The actor, who played Luke Skywalker in multiple "Star Wars" films, is being slammed on social media over what critics say are sky-high fees for his signature at fan conventions. At Hamill’s signing table, a sign laid out the prices in bold lettering: "Mark Hamill – Autograph Prices." The sheet listed $400 for an 8-by-10 photo, $500 for premium items and $700 for bulky memorabilia, noting quantities are limited each day. While autograph pricing at expos has steadily climbed

California First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom has unloaded on reporters at a Sacramento press conference about Planned Parenthood — accusing the mostly female journalists of inflicting a “horrific war on women” by not asking on-topic questions. The rant was part of a Siebel Newsom press blitz Wednesday after the wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom was featured in a glossy Marie Claire profile that discussed her marriage, activist documentaries, as well as her husband saying she’d be an ”extraordinary” First Lady, as he continues. (Snip) But the self-appointed First Partner hijacked a Q&A session to scold reporters for asking questions

Nearly half are for paid family leave and about 40 percent are for medical leave, while the rest comprise of caring, safety and military family leave.
