Saudi oil officials said prices could soar past $180 a barrel if severe supply disruptions from the war in Iran last past April – potentially hammering foreign economies and the US as gasoline costs jump at the pumps.
While it would mean big profits for a kingdom that leans heavily on oil revenues, it could also lead global consumers to slash oil use or trigger a recession, and there are also fears that it would cast Saudi Arabia as the profiteer of a war it didn’t start, officials told the Wall Street Journal.
Black homeowners are fuming over Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s threat that he’ll raise their property taxes by nearly 10% — with some telling The Post it could force them out of New York City.
“Mayor Zohran Mamdani you are out of your goddamn mind,” Cambria Heights resident James Johnson seethed.
Critics like Johnson, 35, a Democratic City Council candidate and an activist for the predominantly black and working class Queens neighborhood, argued the proposed tax hike was a whiplash-inducing departure from Hizzoner’s campaign promise that only the ultra wealthy would see their taxes go up under his administration.
MOGADISHU, Somalia — A passenger aircraft carrying 55 people overran the runway at Somalia’s main airport and ended up in shallow water at a nearby beach Tuesday during an emergency landing following a technical problem shortly after takeoff.
There were no injuries from the emergency landing at Mogadishu’s Aden Abdulle International Airport, and the 50 passengers and 5 crew members aboard the Starsky Aviation flight were safely evacuated, airline CEO Ahmed Nur said in a statement.
Nicole Sirotek, founder of American Frontline Nurses, claimed that she received a frantic 4 a.m. call from a distraught husband whose pregnant wife is now on a ventilator after overdosing on Tylenol.
According to Sirotek, the woman, who was between 23 and 25 weeks pregnant, attempted to ingest massive amounts of Tylenol in an effort to “prove Donald Trump wrong” after his recent remarks linking acetaminophen use during pregnancy to autism.

Gaza — as Hamas made mockery of cease-fire

Harrowing photos have emerged of severely emaciated children wasting away in Gaza as starvation grips the Palestinian enclave — just as the US accused Hamas of making a mockery of cease-fire talks to end the war with Israel.
The disturbing images showed scores of sickly thin Palestinian youngsters with their bones poking out.
In one particularly horrifying viral photo, a small child can be seen being cradled by his mom as his spine and all of his ribs visibly protrude from his body.
Bye bye, Jews

It didn't start with the nomination of Zohran Mandami last Tuesday, but his victory continued the trend. The Dems and the Jews are not one anymore. Let's check this out from Gregory Lyakhov: "The Democratic Party, once a political home for Jewish Americans, has now become a party that excuses, enables, and empowers antisemitism. Jewish Americans committed to their faith, safety, and democratic values must recognize that political loyalty cannot be unconditional. The time for denial has passed."
Let’s bear that in mind while looking at the amount of firepower the IRS can deploy. In 2020, they had 2,100 “special agents,” who carry firearms and are fully trained to use them. These are law enforcement officers against tax evaders.
They inventoried nearly 4,500 firearms, including 15 “submachine guns” (probably M-16 or M-4 automatic rifles) and 539 long-barreled guns (presumably AR-15s and a few semi-auto shotguns). They also had 5 million rounds of ammo, which should be more than enough.
San Francisco launched a controversial new traffic camera program through which residents with low incomes or receiving government assistance will receive substantial discounts in fines.
City authorities turned on 33 new cameras last month, according to KABC-TV in Los Angeles, yet they will not give out citations for the first two months of the program. Instead, drivers will receive warnings during that time.
Once citations do start, however, the income level of the driver will determine how much he or she will pay.
The Trump administration is cracking down on radical, anti-American foreigners by revoking their visas. The left claims such efforts are a violation of free speech rights. But no foreigner has the “right” to be in America, let alone come here and espouse radical anti-American and anti-West values.
Corrupt Obama Judge Amy Berman Jackson ruled in favor of Hampton Dellinger on Saturday and entered a judgment declaring his firing illegal.
President Trump fired Hampton Dellinger, Special Counsel of the Office of Special Counsel (not to be confused with a special counsel hired as a federal prosecutor) a few weeks ago.
However, shortly after the firing, Judge Jackson sided with Hampton Dellinger, issued an administrative stay, and allowed him to keep his job.
Jane Fonda, the aging darling of the radical left, took to the stage at the 2025 Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards on Sunday to accept her Life Achievement Award—and promptly reminded us why she’s better known as “Hanoi Jane.”
The 87-year-old actress used her platform at the 2025 SAG Awards to spew tired leftist talking points, taking thinly veiled shots at President Donald Trump and doubling down on her obsession with “woke” nonsense.

IThe 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
Free Speech For People said in a press release Monday that a new national poll found “a majority of likely 2026 voters nationwide support impeaching President Donald Trump,” which the group called “an extraordinary and unprecedented level of support so early in a presidential term.”
The poll, conducted by Lake Research Partners from March 26-30 among 800 likely 2026 general election voters, found that 52 percent support impeaching Trump, while 40 percent oppose it. 46 percent said they strongly support impeachment, compared with 37 percent who strongly oppose it, while 8 percent said they were unsure or had no opinion.

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.
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.

to scrap gas tax, replace it with vehicle
weight fee 28 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
Pope Leo's Flawed War Doctrine
23 replies
Pope Leo XIV used part of his Palm Sunday message to castigate the United States for attempting to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power and threatening the world with mass destruction. In doing so, the "American Pope" confused the real enemy in the war. Addressing thousands in St. Peter's Square, the Pope claimed that God rejects the prayers of leaders who wage war. He called the Iran war "atrocious" violence that cannot be justified by faith. He further said that God doesn't hear the prayers of people whose "hands (are) full of blood."
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.
The U.S. government is using AI to locate and arrest migrants who are accused of being in the United States illegally. According to several reports, the Department of Homeland Security is hiring a litany of private contractors and giving them the names of thousands of migrants. The contractors are then using artificial intelligence to find the migrants. The process of using AI, public records, databases, online information and surveillance is called “skip tracing.” It’s been used by debt collectors, bail bondsmen and private investigators for years. But reports say DHS is paying private companies billions of dollars to use this process to find migrants for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
President Trump vowed Monday to catch the “leaker” who revealed that US forces were not immediately able to rescue the second F-15 pilot shot down over Iran — as he told again of the wounded airman’s dramatic weekend rescue.
“We’re looking very hard to find that leaker,” Trump said in the White House briefing room. “They basically said that we have one and there’s somebody missing. Well, [Iran] didn’t know there was somebody missing until this leaker gave the information.”
Trump explained that the leak could have endangered the missing pilot’s life.
“We think we’ll be able to find it out, because we’re going to go to the media company that released it,
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.
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,

The gap truly is unbridgeable.
It's hard not to conclude that after the event of this weekend, even if we held out hope that somehow, once the TDS is in the rear-view mirror, we might find a way to talk with each other. As you might imagine, I, like many of you, was glued to news sources (X, in my case), vacuuming up as much informati on as possible about our downed WSO. As soon as the news broke of the downed F-15, a massive divide became evident: Trump's opponents, to a person, shouted that this was proof that the United States was losing,
