Grocery prices are soaring. Putting a fresh vegetable in your shopping cart costs 11.5% more this year than it did last year. We need not accept rising costs as forces outside our control. Government can bring them down. Here in New York City, City Hall will do just that.

NOW - Trump says it's good to have 500,000 foreign Chinese students in the U.S. and for China to purchase U.S. farmland; otherwise, colleges and farm prices would collapse: "I frankly think that it's good that people come from other countries and they learn our culture."

A peer-reviewed paper published last year in the journal Bioethics by two professors at Western Michigan University School of Medicine argues that it is "morally obligatory" to genetically engineer ticks to spread alpha-gal syndrome, a permanent condition that makes you violently allergic to red meat. The paper is called "Beneficial Bloodsucking." Their argument: if eating meat is morally wrong, then preventing the spread of a disease that forces people to stop eating meat is also morally wrong. Scientists should gene-edit lone star ticks to enhance their ability to carry alpha-gal syndrome and expand their range into urban environments to infect more people. They call this a "moral bioenhancer." They frame releasing genetically modified disease-carrying ticks as a "vaccination" that only "infringes" on your bodily autonomy rather than "violating" it. The distinction, apparently, is that a tick bit you instead of a government official holding you down. Alpha-gal syndrome is not mild. The CDC estimates up to 450,000 Americans are already affected. Cases have surged 100-fold in the last decade. Symptoms include anaphylaxis. There is no cure. Alpha-gal cases are exploding across the United States. The lone star tick's range is expanding far beyond its historical territory. And two academics at a medical school published a paper arguing this is a good thing that should be accelerated. At what point do we stop treating papers like this as fringe academic exercises and start asking whether anyone is already acting on them?

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed campaigns as a 'physician' despite never holding a medical license in any state, public records reveal.

At the Muslim youth center in New York, Mohammad Badawy said: “as a Muslim, my life’s mission is to fight the U.S government, the U.S army, and ICE until my last breath, that is my reason for existence.” These people cannot stay here.

Looks as if Superintendent Larry Snelling is going to get a chilly reception at his address at City Club next week. This deranged hatred for CPD is Chicago's biggest mental-health crisis.

CATO Institute advocate for mass immigration: "Give up on the mass deportation fantasy. One in five Fairfax residents is someone who could be deported or lives with them. It would destroy neighborhoods.”
