close Video NYC mayor: Fentanyl will 'destroy generations' Mayor Eric Adams in his State of the City address warns that fentanyl will "destroy generations" in New York City. New York City Mayor Eric Adams urged New Yorkers to stop "sleeping on" the opioid crisis during his State of the City speech Thursday, warning that fentanyl abuse will "destroy generations" if left unaddressed. Adams' address touched on virtually every aspect of life in NYC, but he made a particularly impassioned plea regarding fentanyl abuse. "Do you remember what crack cocaine did to our city and country?" Adams said. "That's what fentanyl is about to do right now. If we don't stop the fentanyl and opioid abuse, it is going to destroy generations to come." "This is a major crisis that we are sleeping on," he continued.

I was an FBI Special Agent and if Biden won’t fix a bureau in crisis, it will be destroyed
close Video Former top FBI official arrested over Russia scandal Fox News correspondent Rich Edson discusses former FBI official Charlie McGonigal and his relations with Russia on ‘Special Report.’ NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles! The FBI is in crisis . It pains me, as a former special agent and the former chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, to warn that if we don’t fix it now, we risk irrevocably breaking not only the greatest law enforcement agency in the world, but America’s trust in this invaluable institution. If you needed any more graphic evidence of institutional and cultural rot affecting the bureau, just this week Charles McGonigal , the former special agent in charge of counterintelligence in the FBI's New York field office was arrested for ties to Oleg Deripaska, a sanctioned Russian oligarch. It should be common sense that a senior agent should not be working for a criminal, any … [Read more...] about I was an FBI Special Agent and if Biden won’t fix a bureau in crisis, it will be destroyed
Eurocrats Demand More Deportations As Illegal Migrant Crossings Spike
Senior officials within the European Union are now demanding deportations increase amid a spike in illegal migrant arrivals into the bloc. The European Commission is looking for the EU and its member states to increase the number of deportations enforced against illegal migrants. Having seen a massive spike in illegal immigration back in 2015 and 2016, the union has once again seen a large spike in what it calls “irregular” border crossings, with hundreds of thousands of individuals entering the bloc in an uncontrolled manner last year. Such a spike in arrivals also saw a spike in deportation orders, though, according to POLITICO , the EU has a problem with effectively removing illegal migrants from its territory, with only 24 per cent of the 342,100 people requested to be removed by European authorities actually being sent to a non-EU member nation in 2021. It now appears Brussels wants to at least be seen as taking steps to remedy this situation, with the EU’s Home … [Read more...] about Eurocrats Demand More Deportations As Illegal Migrant Crossings Spike

Greg Gianforte reiterated his administration's priorities to improve Montana's economy in his State of the State address delivered Wednesday to the Legislature, whose job over the next few months will include determining how to allocate an unprecedented $2.6 billion budget surplus. "The fact of the matter is Montanans overpaid," Gianforte said of tax payments. "We need to give it back."

The Sacrosanct Endowment? Not Anymore for Some Arts Groups
Endowments have long been viewed as the bedrock upon which the long-term financial health of arts organizations is built — money that was painstakingly accumulated and protected over decades to finance the future. They are not rainy day funds, or pots of gold to be casually raided to cover some unforeseen expense. A manager who dipped into theirs excessively, taking out more than the widely embraced standard of 5 percent, could put themselves at risk of being cast as shortsighted, or worse, a spendthrift. But the coronavirus pandemic has challenged that orthodoxy because so many largely dormant museums, orchestras and ballet troupes are facing unmatched financial problems. So elite organizations like the Lyric Opera of Chicago and the Los Angeles Philharmonic — institutions with veteran leadership and a track record of solid financial management — now feel they have to blow past the stop signs. The Lyric plans to spend $23 million from its $173 million endowment this … [Read more...] about The Sacrosanct Endowment? Not Anymore for Some Arts Groups
Texas Judge Says We ‘Have A Leak’ At Border And Biden Is Sending ‘More Buckets To Hold The Water’
A Texas border county judge said Thursday on CNN that President Joe Biden is not addressing the border crisis amid an overflow of migrants. Hidalgo County Judge Richard Cortez first explained that border patrol agents have expressed concern that when Title 42 , which is expected to end in coming days, is rescinded, “the influx will be overwhelming and turn a manageable situation to an unmanageable situation.” Cortez said some of the migrants could be sick or criminals, before adding the Biden administration and Congress need to work on fixing the immigration system to make it easier for migrants to legally come over.
