With 2022 winding to a close, the results are starting to come in regarding crime rates in New York City.  As anyone with a pulse and a set of eyeballs could determine, crime has been rising steadily for the past few years, with 2022 being no exception.  The data, however, is even worse than previously thought.

The political attacks by Democrats on Republicans for not buying into the massive social change that they’ve been pushing found a new hammer to hit with when a madman shot up an LGBT bar in Colorado Springs, Colorado.  Forget taking seconds to figure out anything about this attacker, the same people who have the same agenda made the same attacks on their political opponents, to the accolades of their sycophantic fanbase.  The most egregious example comes from New York’s very own Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

The right-wing parties that won a clear victory in Israel’s recent election need to get their act together and establish a government.

Progressive Democrats on the New York City Council are pushing to abolish the database that the NYPD uses to track gang activity in and around New York City, and to prevent any other database from being formed.

When one depicts a university, images of a campus come to mind, a cluster of buildings situated around a quad, or common green space where the disciplines interact. This plan is one of many lasting legacies of President Thomas Jefferson, who called it an “Academical Village.”
