On the one hand, you have David Beckham, once the world’s greatest soccer player, waiting in a 10-hour queue (British for line) to say goodbye to the late Queen Elizabeth II. On this side of the pond, we have former Courier-Post and Daily News writer Chuck Darrow, and former

May I ask an impolite question? Thank you. When Presidential Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre (the first Haitian-immigrant-lesbian to hold that post, in case you forgot how many Indentity boxes she checks) says that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Texas Governor Greg Abbott are “playing politics” by shipping illegals undocumented people

The collection of Pembroke Welsh Corgis given free run of the castle will be euthanized and buried with her Royal Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, according to terms in her will, uncovered by the Daily Mail. The will, leaked to the newspaper, specified that the dogs be euthanized and buried with

Something has to be said, but what hasn’t been said already? Last year -- the 20th anniversary — delivered an orgy of remembrance, anger, sadness, sickness. For the Millennials, it was their Day of Infamy. For Boomers it was Nov. 22, 1963 again. An unspeakable tragedy, a tape measure of
Joe Biden
Standing before the back door to Independence Hall, President Joe Biden delivered a forthright political address, but did it in a slightly unusual way. Sounding almost like a cleric at the lectern, when Biden talked about the promise and purpose of America, he spoke in frankly patriotic terms that might

People — poor people mostly — are desperate to get to America. So desperate they will lie and distort the law to achieve sanctuary here. I don’t blame them for wanting to come here. I do blame them for subverting our law — whether they crash the border and run for the

Uh-oh. POTUS has pissed off AOC. [Translation for those not obsessed with politics.] President Joe Biden has angered U.S. Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Why? He’s placed restraints on what was going to be a volcano of money for college deadbeats students in debt. Early on, there was talk of

By now, there’s a good chance you have seen a brief video of three Arkansas cops subduing a suspect.l The insidious thing about sharing video on the internet is you see a slice of what happened, not the whole loaf. And judgments are made on incomplete evidence. It

Hon. Greg Abbott Texas Governor Austin, TX Dear Gov. Abbott: Howdy! I am writing to congratulate you on your pioneering policy of getting illegals “undocumemted” people to places of shelter in New York City, a proud and sprained brain “sanctuary city,” which says it is “welcoming” to people regardless of
Donald J. Trump
When I first became politically aware, around the age of 10, I liked Republicans. I was too young to understand President Harry S Truman. I had some glimmers about him, but did not appreciate his command of the presidency until I was much older. Dwight David Eisenhower became the Republican
