81-year-old lifelong Dodgers fan left
devastated by brutal new policy
Posted By: mc squared, 4/6/2026 11:30:39 AM
The Los Angeles Dodgers are playing hardball with their most loyal fans, and this time, the boys in blue are looking more like corporate bullies. Errol Segal, the 81-year-old diehard fan who has held season tickets for a staggering 50 years, found himself in the ultimate pickle when the team essentially told him his money was good, but his flip phone wasn’t. Despite half a century of loyalty — long before the era of QR codes — the Dodgers flat-out refused to provide Segal with paper tickets for the 2026 season, effectively shutting him out of games.

Daughter of top Iranian official ousted

from Emory University after outcry has

The daughter of a powerful Iranian regime insider who was forced out of Emory University after a firestorm of backlash is set to be booted from the United States completely.
Dr. Fatemeh Ardeshir-Larijani, whose father is a top official in Tehran, was removed from her post at the prestigious Atlanta school following mounting outrage over her family’s ties to the regime, as first reported by The Post.
She worked as an assistant professor at Emory University’s prestigious Winship Cancer Institute in Atlanta. The controversy surrounding Ardeshir-Larijani sparked backlash from critics who questioned how someone so closely linked to Iran’s ruling elite had secured a position at a leading American research institution.
Two years ago, career criminal Guy Rivera shot and killed NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller on a street in Queens while he was doing the job this city asked him to do.
He was 31 years old. A husband. A father. A police officer who understood what the work required of him and accepted it.
On that night, he stepped forward into danger with the same sense of purpose and nobility that defined his career. This week, a jury returned its verdict. And that not guilty verdict of murder in the first degree landed like a gut punch to the entire New York City Police Department.
Today is supposedly the last day that Canadian gun owners can hand in firearms banned by the Liberal government and still receive compensation for their guns. With just 51,000 firearms turned in as of last week, the federal government has collected just a little more than one-third of the total number of firearms it anticipated receiving, and most provinces have refused to aid in the Liberals' gun ban scheme.
That opposition, though, has its limits. Blaine Beaven, the new firearms commissioner in Saskatchewan, says the province is working to provide as much protection to gun owners as it can.

A 15-year-old student is dead after shooting a teacher at his high school near San Antonio Monday morning, authorities said.
The female teacher — from Hill Country College Preparatory High School in the town of Bulverde — was rushed to the hospital after being shot by the unidentified male student, the Comal County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post without revealing details about the teacher’s condition.
Authorities didn’t say what exactly happened to the shooter, only that he “died at the scene.”
The school was evacuated and all other staff and students are safe, the sheriff’s office added.
It’s like a pandemic: Weekly news reports of yet another teacher arrested for having an erotic relationship with a student – often a young, attractive female exploiting a teen male under the age of consent.
But this phenomenon of “educator sexual misconduct,” or ESM, is not as bad as it appears.
In fact, it’s worse.
Such stories evoke the prurient pop music theme found in the rock band Van Halen’s 1984 tune “Hot For Teacher.”
However, in the real world, the overwhelming majority of these criminal relationships are never disclosed and prosecuted, and their destructive impact on victims goes largely unreported.
China - by which I mean, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which for all intents and purposes is China - is not our friend. They may be a trade partner, but they are not an ally; at best, they are a rival. At worst? An adversary.
More evidence of this surfaced Friday, when a Stanford University student testified to a House of Representatives committee about years of harassment and stalking by the Chinese Communist Party, aimed at her work as an East Asia Studies major [snip]
Johnson confirmed that she was receiving harassing phone calls. The FBI has confirmed she was being monitored by CCP agents on the grounds of the university.
Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick illicitly funneled millions of dollars to her campaign and committed various campaign finance infractions, a bipartisan House Ethics subcommittee determined Friday — likely laying the groundwork for a vote by the full legislative body to expel the embattled Florida Democrat.
The panel’s adjudicatory subcommittee, led by House Ethics Chair Michael Guest (R-Miss.), deliberated well past midnight following an hours-long hearing that served as the panel’s first public “trial” in nearly 16 years. It found “clear and convincing” evidence that Cherfilus-McCormick was guilty of all but two of the 27 counts that had been brought against her
Municipal police should be disarmed in the multicultural Saint-Denis suburb of Paris, the city’s recently elected radical Mayor Bally Bagayoko said this week, despite the history of violence and unrest in the area.
The Malian-heritage mayor, who swept to power on the far-left Jean-Luc Mélenchon La France Insoumise (LFI/France in Rebellion) ticket — with the backing of the French Communist Party — earlier this month, defeating comparatively moderate Socialist Party candidate Mathieu Hanotin during the first round of voting in France’s two-round municipal elections.
True to form, Bagayoko, who campaigned on giving free (taxpayer-funded) bicycles to every ninth-grade student in the city,
A Secret Service agent shot and wounded himself in the leg while guarding former first lady Jill Biden at Philadelphia International Airport on Friday, according to the agency and a report.
The on-duty agent’s gun went off around 8:30 a.m. while helping escort former President Joe Biden’s wife at the busy travel hub, sources told KYW.
The agent suffered a non-life-threatening injury following the “negligent discharge” that took place while he was handling his service weapon, said Secret Service spokesperson Nate Herring. “There was no impact to the protectee’s movement and they were not present at the time of the incident,” Herring said.
Two men have been arrested and charged after a U.S. Park Police officer was shot in Southeast D.C. Monday night.
What we know:
Authorities say two men opened fire around 7:30 p.m. as a USPP officer was driving an unmarked white Tesla in the 5000 block of Queens Stroll Place in the southeast. [snip]
. The officer managed to drive a short distance before stopping, where other officers provided aid before he was flown to a hospital via helicopter.
21-year-old Darren Foster of Southeast, DC was stopped Monday shortly after the shooting. 22-year-old Asheile Foster of Southeast, DC was located on Tuesday.
Delta Air Lines is punishing Congress for failing to fund the Department of Homeland Security.
The airline company has temporarily yanked its special congressional desk service to lawmakers and staffers on Capitol Hill until Congress finally funds the DHS, which has been in a partial shutdown since Feb. 28.
“Due to the impact on resources from the longstanding government shutdown, Delta will temporarily suspend specialty services to members of Congress flying Delta,” the company said in a statement first reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
“Next to safety, Delta’s No. 1 priority is taking care of our people and customers, which has become increasingly difficult in the current environment.”

Leave it to the woke left to ignore, well, reality.
In the latest episode of Woke Progressives Gone Wild, former women's soccer player Megan Rapinoe is back to her usual shenanigans, denying biology in favor of having dudes play in women's sports. You'd think, having been a soccer player, a sport which I am given to understand required speed, strength, agility, and endurance, she's know better; but, clearly, she doesn't know, or care, about the differences between men and women.
Former U.S. women’s soccer star Megan Rapinoe ripped the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for implementing a new policy to ensure fairness across women’s competitions.
Automakers trade group urges government

to scrap gas tax, replace it with vehicle
weight fee 23 replies
The leader of a trade group that represents most major automakers called on the federal government to eliminate its gasoline tax and replace it with a vehicle fee to finance road infrastructure needs.
Alliance for Automotive Innovation CEO John Bozzella, whose group represents automakers such as General Motors, Toyota, Volkswagen, Hyundai and other leading car manufacturers, put forward a proposal that urged the federal government to address the growing shortfall in the Highway Trust Fund with a vehicle fee.
The proposal would function like a vehicle registration fee that’s assessed on all vehicles based on their weight, and was first reported by Reuters. It comes as the federal government’s
The era of privacy is officially over in the “New Hong Kong,” and if you’re an American traveling abroad, you are now a target for the Communist-controlled regime.
According to a recent warning issued by the U.S. Consulate, Americans entering or even transiting through Hong Kong could now face criminal charges simply for refusing to unlock their phones or provide passwords to authorities.
Under newly updated enforcement rules tied to Hong Kong’s sweeping National Security Law, police now have the authority to demand access to personal electronic devices, including phones and laptops, on the spot.
And here’s the catch:
Refusing to comply is now a criminal offense
When you think about Delaware, you’re probably not thinking about shady financial firms or Joe Biden, but I repeat myself, still you may want to think about something else because the state has named January ‘Muslim Heritage Month’. Indeed, nothing says Muslim heritage like Delaware.
What brought on this particular bout of Islamization?
The resolution came from Rep. Madinah Wilson-Anton. We covered her in our first edition of Election Jihad for making a scene by screeching about ‘genocide’ at Kamala Harris.
Wilson-Anton, the first Muslim elected in Delaware, has all sorts of thoughts about Islamic terrorism.
On Monday’s CNN This Morning, the panel on the Audie Cornish-hosted program started with more accusations of U.S. war crimes from panelist Sarah Fitzpatrick of The Atlantic and Kim Dozier, a CNN Global Affairs Analyst. Fitzpatrick said the US will be “turning off incubators for babies,” while Dozier claimed the US is about to violate the Geneva Conventions like Russia had in Ukraine.
Furthermore, at the end of the hour-long morning show, a discussion ensued between Cornish and Fitzpatrick, which worried almost only about the “cost” of the rescue mission of a U.S. Military pilot.

Spanish Leftist Lawmaker Calls for Limits

Spanish lawmaker Alberto Ibáñez called for the imposition of strict controls on the nation’s inbound tourism industry to force it to reduce in scope during a Sunday interview with the Madrid-based Europapress.
Ibáñez is a member of Compromís, a leftist Valencian regionalism coalition. The lawmaker stressed to Europapress that limiting Spain’s tourism industry is necessary, as he believes it has already made it “impossible to live” in cities like Alicante or Valencia.
Europapress reports that Ibáñez recently submitted a request to the Spanish Congress to establish a parliamentary subcommittee to analyze the impact of tourism on people’s quality of life.
Gavin’s first partner is a ‘New’sance

Jennifer Siebel Newsom is the very avatar of Democrat Woman.
Haughty, hectoring and pleased with herself, she is single-handedly wrecking her hen-pecked husband Gavin’s lofty political ambitions.
No wonder he’s taken to moping around and crying at press conferences.
As the California governor’s presidential aspirations head south and his state’s woes become impossible to ignore, he’s tried in vain to reset his ailing brand — and now his 51-year-old actress-turned-activist wife is taking over.Over the weekend, she inserted herself into the news again with an Instagram video pontificating that the departure of Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem from Donald Trump’s Cabinet is proof that the president is waging a “war on all women.”
The United States is dismantling Iran's military machine in real time. We’ve nearly destroyed its ability to launch missiles and drones. Its navy is wiped out. Most of its military facilities are damaged or destroyed. The U.S. and Israel own the skies over Iran. Thousands of targets have been hit, and the regime's defense industrial base is being systematically torn apart to make sure it can't rearm later. The terrorist regime is being decimated militarily, and their dismal situation grows bleaker by the day – their only hope is to make a deal with President Trump's administration and leave behind their nuclear ambitions for good,”
The United States executed what officials described as “one of the most challenging and complex” rescue missions in the history of U.S. special operations to recover a downed Air Force officer deep inside Iran after he survived more than 24 hours behind enemy lines — injured during a violent ejection, hunted across mountainous terrain by Iranian forces and civilians, and ultimately located through a high-stakes intelligence effort that initially raised fears of a trap before culminating in a dramatic extraction that forced U.S. forces to destroy their own aircraft.
President Donald Trump confirmed the rescue at 12:09 a.m. Sunday on Truth Social, declaring, “WE GOT HIM!”
Operation Epic Fury has been a great success so far. Of course, one reason that this operation, which our Israeli allies are calling Operation Roaring Lion, has been such a success so far is that no other nations are coming to Iran's aid. That shouldn't be surprising, as Iran has been an outlaw nation for almost half a century, ruled by a cabal of vicious, 7th-century barbarians that any civilized nation should rightly abhor.
Here's the thing: Iran also has some of the world's largest recoverable petroleum and natural gas reserves, one of the primary beneficiaries of which is China.
Now, China expert and Gatestone Institute senior fellow Gordon Chang,

Take out one Iranian power plant per day

Power plants are legitimate targets in war. They’re “dual purpose” infrastructure in that they serve a civilian purpose but also a military one. (The same was true of the large bridge in Tehran that we took out last week.)
That’s one reason that terrorists like Hamas position their military commands in hospitals, not power plants. It is recognized that hospitals are not legitimate targets (unless a military use is made of them) while power plants are.
America is therefore justified in disabling Iran’s power plants, as President Trump has threatened to do. It will be much tougher for Iran to launch drones and missiles without electric power.
