Lester Holt hosted his last “NBC Nightly News” show on Friday after a 14 year tenure as its anchor. The highly decorated reporter bid viewers a farewell by reminding them of their core values that guide the team’s coverage. “I’m so grateful for your trust around here,. Facts matter, words matter, journalism matters, and you matter,” Holt said.“Over the last decade, we have shared some dark and harrowing days and nights of our country, the pandemic, mass shootings, natural disasters, each testing our resilience and our compassion. That’s why I often like to leave you with something to smile about, moments that reassure and connect us,” he added.

Trump’s announcement came at U.S. Steel’s Irvin Works in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, where he held a rally celebrating the “planned partnership” between U.S. Steel and Japanese company Nippon Steel to keep U.S. Steel in America. “Today, I have a major announcement, and are you ready to hear this?” Trump asked the crowd, drawing cheers. We are going to be imposing a 25 percent increase–we’re going to bring it from 25 percent to 50 percent the tariffs on steel into the United States of America, which will even further secure the steel industry in the United States,” Trump said. “Nobody’s going to get around.

Palestinians picking up food packages from the Trump administration-backed American alternative to the United Nations (UN) in Gaza were reportedly shocked the aid was free, having become used to being charged for it. As Breitbart News reported, the new Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) was launched to provide an alternative to the UN, which either fails to deliver trucks of aid or allegedly lets Hamas steal the supplies. Hamas then keeps the aid (especially fuel) for itself, sells the aid on the black market, or makes Palestinians pay inflated prices for it.

According to an official press release from the U.S. Coast Guard, the “seized contraband was the result of four interdictions in the Eastern Pacific by the crew of Coast Guard Cutter Thetis and an embarked MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew from Helicopter Interdiction Tactical Squadron based out of Jacksonville, Florida.” The four incidents happened May 3, May 5, May 6, and May 10. On May 3, for example, a maritime patrol aircraft “located two suspicious vessels approximately 170 miles west of Mexico,” ultimately seizing 4,630 pounds of cocaine. “The Coast Guard transferred 4,608 pounds of cocaine from this case to Ecuadorian government officials to aid them in their prosecution efforts,”

In the olden days, the world was run on a feudal system. There were a handful of mostly inter-related nobles who lived in palaces, wore fancy clothes, and ate sumptuous food. They were served by a large class of serfs who did the unpleasant things like digging latrines, plowing fields, slaughtering animals, tanning leather, and all of the other work needed for the nobles to live in luxury. In return, the nobles kept the serfs from starving but generally oppressed them and sometimes did so gratuitously for their own amusement.

Donald Trump says he is firing the first female director of the National Portrait Gallery, which contained a caption that referenced the attack on the US Capitol that his supporters carried out in early 2021. The president announced the termination on Friday in a post on his social media platform that accused Sajet – born in Nigeria, raised in Australia and a citizen of the Netherlands – of being “a strong supporter” of diversity initiatives that his administration opposes as well as “highly partisan”. He cited no evidence for either claim.

Planned Parenthood celebrates the fact that it aborted – slaughtered – 402,230 babies last year, according to its latest report. That’s over 1,100 lives a day – the most ever. Last year, taxpayers were forced to give another three-quarters of a billion dollars to the abortion giant – almost $800 million. That’s nearly $2.2 million of our tax dollars every single day. It appears life is good for Planned Parenthood post-Dobbs, a case in which we filed helping overturn Roe v. Wade. Now it’s time to stop funding the abortion industry once and for all.

At least 10 hospital executives from Nassau University Medical Center, including its CEO, have put in their resignations in response to what they called a “hostile takeover” by Gov. Kathy Hochul, according to sources in the hospital. CEO Meg Ryan confirmed to The Post that she and other leaders in the hospital have resigned effective in July, so that they can help oversee the hospital board’s transition, she revealed. “[New York State] has made it very clear that they do not want me to be in the CEO role,” Ryan told The Post about her decision to step down. “It was the hardest decision I had to make in my career.”

Andrew Cuomo was dealt another blow by the city’s campaign finance watchdog, which dinged him another $675,000 Friday over suspicions his mayoral campaign improperly coordinated with a super PAC. The New York City Campaign Finance Board has now denied the former governor a total of $1.3 million in public matching funds — which could hamper the frontrunner as the June 24 Democratic primary approaches and surging socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani nips at his heels. The ex-gov first lost out on around $622,000 in matching funds last month when the CBC said it believed a TV ad was created by “Fix the City” —
