The mobsters in “The Godfather” set their sights way too low. If they really wanted to make it big time, they should have targeted federal entitlement programs instead of gamblers and drug addicts. Not only does it pay better, but you can count on one political party to look the other way. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) figures that fraudsters make off with more than $500 billion of federal taxpayer money a year, plus another $184 billion in “improper payments.” That isn’t just bigger than U.S. Steel. That’s five times as big as the entire steel industry. Every day, it seems, there are reports of fraud, most of it involving federal entitlement programs.

Who are these Democratic Socialists of America that are so frequently mentioned in the news? Are they traditional European socialists? Are they anarchists? Are they communists? I think they don’t mind if you label them any of those three rubrics. But let’s go through a diagnosis, a methodology, a therapy, prognosis, as if we’re doctors looking at a malady or a disease. So, first of all, what are their symptoms? Well, their symptoms are they have an agenda that’s way out of the norm. And what is that agenda? Well, one, they want open borders, amnesty for illegal immigration, and the conflation of citizenship and mere residency.

Every ballot error from the June 16 primary came from a hand-marked one, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Thursday. The ballot image audit shows an accuracy rate of 99.93% for hand-marked ballots and 100% for machine-marked ballots. "Human beings make human errors and the likelihood of a discrepancy between voter intent and what’s marked on a ballot is greatest when that ballot has been marked by hand," Raffensperger said in a statement. Raffensperger's office has faced scrutiny since the 2020 election about the accuracy of the Dominion voting machines. Salleigh Grubbs, a member of the Georgia State Election Board, advocates for hand-marked ballots.

New Jersey is slamming taxpayers with a one-two punch: forcing them to pay more for their roads — and trampling on the Constitution to do it. When Evesham Township in southern New Jersey needed some roads repaved in 2025, it put the job out for bid. Of the eight responding contractors, Earle Asphalt Co.’s bid came in lowest, at $1,463,513. That’s where the story should have ended: Earle gets the job, taxpayers get their roads fixed at the best price, everyone goes home happy. It’s not what happened. Seven days after bids closed, the Evesham Township Council passed a resolution mandating that all public works contracts include a project labor agreement.

It's no big secret that New York City's mayor, Zohran Mamdani, hates America, so it stands to reason that most, if not all, of the people he brought on to work in his administration would likely share a similar mindset. When Operation Epic Fury got underway in late February, it was not a shock to see the democratic socialist react with such outrage, proclaiming that the strikes "mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal act of war of aggression,” while adding that "bombing cities, killing civilians, opening up a new theater of war — Americans do not want this."
