In a a rare moment of agreement with Uncle Joe it was actually kind of a stupid question. He doesn't seem to be able to hold his tongue which is why he's so heavily handled and sequestered often.

Uncle Joe was the nickname given to Stalin by FDR. Somehow appropriate with this pudknocker.

Brazen thieves are strolling out of stores in NYC's wealthy Upper East Side with bags full of looted goods and leaving shelves bare: One Rite Aid is being forced to close after being hit DAILY and small businesses fear they'll suffer the same fate



Brazen thieves have been hitting the same Upper East Side Rite Aid for months, forcing it to close - and now, numerous small businesses in the upscale Manhattan neighborhood, where residents say they are on high alert because of rising crime, are worried they will soon suffer the same fate after a string of thefts. Shelves are already bare in the Rite Aid store, located at the corner of 80th Street and 2nd Avenue because it will shut its doors for good on February 15, the manager told DailyMail.com, a day after a thief was caught on video boldly sauntering out with shopping bags full of stolen goods.

The brazen incident in one of New York City's wealthiest neighborhoods was only captured on camera because actor and comedian Michael Rapaport had stopped by to shop at the store himself. He said it was 'pathetic' that brazen crime continues to spiral in the Big Apple because of soft-on-crime policies. 'These criminals know there are no ramifications. We have to put more of these mfers in jail,' he fumed to DailyMail.com.

The Rite Aid's closure is just one of many in the city. On February 8, a Hell's Kitchen store which has been rife with robberies in recent months will close, and on the Upper West Side, another store which experienced daily thefts shut down in November. The chain announced last year that it was shutting down about 63 stores across the US in the next few years, citing cost-cutting measures - but workers say that the thefts are part of the reason for the closures as inventory dwindles.

You literally have to step over the homeless anywhere you go and the place is going to ****. I've probably been in that Rite Aid several times. I think this is the one where a manager actually stabbed a shoplifter a few years ago. Now he would have to help them carry their items out the door.

You're about to get a lot more speeding tickets!' Critics slam 'Pothole Pete' Buttigieg's plan to fix the nation's roads crisis with MORE speed cameras and lower speed limits that will guarantee fines for drivers



Buttigieg announced the plan yesterday and claims it will reduce the number of deadly road collisions. His 42-page plan includes a caveat to 'promote' speed camera use, which he says will be a more 'equitable' way of patrolling the roads than if cops were tasked with it. He also mentioned lowering speed limits, which - coupled with the addition of more cameras - guarantees an uptick in speeding tickets.

Communist goons drag away a Dutch reporter while he's broadcasting LIVE on air from outside the Beijing Winter Olympics

Sjoerd den Daas, a correspondent for NOS Journaal, was covering the long-awaited games in China when a man wearing a red armband entered the frame and grabbed the journalist. Mr den Daas attempted to continue his broadcast but was pulled away, in what has online been called an example of one of China's latest tactics at intimidating foreign reporters. The interruption came from a man wearing a black jacket and a red band around the sleeve which appears to distinguish him a 'Public Security Volunteer', a citizen-led neighbourhood watch established to help police maintain order. It is unclear what Mr den Daas was doing prompt intervention, but NOS later tweeted that he was able to continue the report minutes later. The publication's post said: 'Our correspondent was pulled away from the camera by security guards at 12:00 pm live in the NOS Journaal. Unfortunately, this is increasingly becoming a daily reality for journalists in China. He is fine and was able to finish his story a few minutes later.'

February 04, 2022 at 6:05 pm EST

CASTLE ROCK, Colo. — (AP) — A sheriff's deputy is being praised for smashing the windows of a burning SUV and rescuing a frightened dog in a neighborhood south of Denver.

Douglas County Deputy Michael Gregorek's body camera video from Jan. 22, which was released Thursday, shows him arriving on the scene as smoke pours from the driver's side window of the SUV. The owner frantically yells that his dog Hank is somewhere inside the locked vehicle.

Gregorek uses his retractable baton to smash a side window and then the rear window before pulling Hank out and quickly carrying him to a nearby snowbank.

“I just went in there and grabbed on. And his body had already kind of started to tense up, so I knew he was really in a bad way. ... Nothing else really mattered at that point other than getting Hank out of the car,” Gregorek said in an interview released by the sheriff's department.

A neighbor told the deputy his wife was a veterinarian, but by the time she got home, Hank was already sprinting around and ready to play.

“I’m a dog parent. My only child is my dog, so I would have done the same thing, whether it be baby, human, dog, cat. A life is a life, and you kind of treat it as such in a situation like that," Gregorek said.

Maryland crossing guard Cpl. Annette Goodyear saves child from speeding car in heroic video

Heroic video shows crossing guard save child from speeding car



Video caught the moment a quick-thinking Maryland crossing guard heroically pushed a middle school student out of the way of a fast-moving car that barreled through a cross walk.

Cpl. Annette Goodyear of the North East Police Department gets hit by the car instead, the hair-raising footage shows.

Goodyear, wearing a bright orange jacket and a hat, can be seen raising her hand at oncoming traffic as a student prepares to cross the street at a crosswalk.

Just as the student crosses the middle of the slick road, a black sedan zooms into view. Goodyear immediately grabs the student and shoves them to the other side of the street out of harm’s way while she’s clipped by the vehicle, video shows.

Goodyear, a police officer, pushes the child out of the car’s path and was struck.

The driver immediately stops and gets out while Goodyear lays with her back on the ground in pain. The driver and several witnesses rush to help.

Cpl. John Fakner of the North East Police Department told WJZ that the incident happened around 7:30 a.m. on Friday.

Police said Goodyear was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries and was released.

“We’re just extremely proud of her actions,” he told WJZ. “It was a split-second reaction that saved a child from potential injury. A job well done.”

According to the Cecil County Sheriff’s Office, the driver was cited for negligent driving, failure to stop at yield sign before entering crosswalk, failure to stop for pedestrian in crosswalk, and driving with an expired registration plate.

Biden Admin To Fund Crack Pipe Distribution To Advance ‘Racial Equity’

The Biden administration is set to fund the distribution of crack pipes to drug addicts as part of its plan to advance "racial equity."

The $30 million grant program, which closed applications Monday and will begin in May, will provide funds to nonprofits and local governments to help make drug use safer for addicts. Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, are funds for "smoking kits/supplies." A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, and "any illicit substance."

HHS said the kits aim to reduce the risk of infection when smoking substances with glass pipes, which can lead to infections through cuts and sores. Applicants for the grants are prioritized if they treat a majority of "underserved communities," including African Americans and "LGBTQ+ persons," as established under President Joe Biden's executive order on "advancing racial equity."

Democratic-run cities such as San Francisco and Seattle have distributed smoking kits to residents. Some local governments, however, have in recent years backed away from their smoking kit programs over concerns they enable drug abuse. Louisville, Ky., for example, allowed convenience stores to sell smoking kits but later banned them. Legislators in Maryland ditched their distribution plan after facing backlash from local law enforcement and African-American leaders.
