The top 1% need to start paying their fair share.

I really do get the impression that Mamdani doesn’t know that food stamps exist but sees people who are members of the park slope food coop and thinks “wow, we should have the city provide park slope food coops!”

Mamdani: Today, I am proud to announce a collection of essential staples that will be predictably 30% cheaper at all five of our city-run grocery stores. This core set of goods will include all fresh produce, meat, and seafood, along with 20 other essential items like cheese, milk, and bread. Here's how it will work. Once a month, our five city-run grocery stores will set prices for this core set of goods at 30% below typical retail prices. No exceptions, no gimmicks. The savings will last for the entire month. That means no weekly fluctuations or sticker shock at the checkout line—not for our seniors living on fixed incomes, nor for the parents who rely on a regular supply of apple slices to keep toddler tantrums at bay.

Guys, the details of the latest jihadist attack in Europe are psychotic. Abdul Ballout was born in Berlin, but he left Germany for Lebanon. Germany identified him as an Islamist threat, so they had him arrested in Lebanon and FLEW HIM BACK TO GERMANY to put him on trial for plotting terror attacks. He was convicted and sentenced for terrorism offences in May 2026 but released on time served. By July 2026 he was back on the streets. German authorities told him to attend de-radicalisation counselling sessions. He responded by carrying out a jihadist terrorist attack on a pride parade.

Ed Sheeran says Americans call something "alcoholism" that Brits simply call "culture." "Maybe one or two pints at the end of a workday." "On a Friday you'll have six pints and a bottle of wine." "It's not alcoholism to drink every day here." "It's not like I wake up every morning thinking, 'I need a beer tonight.'" "You get to the end of the day and your mate says, 'Do you want to go for a beer?'" "It's just the culture." Throwback Video | Credit: Theo Von

Women initiate 70% of divorces. Men are a bit stressed in boss-wife situations, but it is women who generally demand dominant, successful partners and who end most of these marriages.

If you go to the Al Jazeera Facebook page you will see thousands of laugh reacts on their post about the Berlin pride parade terrorist attack. Hundreds of comments from Muslims celebrating

I have been briefed on today’s horrifying stabbings on the Upper West Side, where an Asian man and a Jewish man were attacked. According to witness and victim statements, the perpetrator yelled “Allahu Akbar” during both attacks. I am relieved that both victims are in stable condition. The NYPD responded immediately and arrested Raul Morales in connection with both assaults—and I am grateful to the officers for their swift response. The NYPD’s initial investigation suggests that mental health may have been a factor. They are also evaluating these stabbings as potential hate crimes. These hateful and despicable attacks have no place in our city.

Atheist losing an argument? When has anyone proved the existence of a deity? What’s to debate?
