A New York-based CNN commentator was slammed by Twitter users after he appeared to mock people’s concerns and national media coverage of New York City subway crimes. “Going home on the violent NYC subways. Riders paralyzed with fright,” NY1 anchor and CNN political commentator Errol Louis tweeted Monday night, alongside a video taken from inside the 14th Street MTA Subway. The video showed an uncrowded subway station, with people standing patiently by the tracks, a man crouched down with his young son, and another man casually playing a trumpet.

Laws of supply and demand? Meh! The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office has calculated that Biden's $15/hr. minimum wage could kill as many as 3.7 million jobs. But on this morning's New Day, CNN commentator Errol Louis said it was "shameful" of Democrat Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia not to support the increase.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Talk about kicking people on their way, literally, out the door . . . CNN's nasty little parting gift for members of President Trump's White House staff was to suggest they might be thieves. On this morning's New Day, as footage rolled of an aide carrying a Lincoln bust out the door, co-host Alisyn Camerota fretted, "I hope they're not absconding with the bust. I hope that was theirs."And when the video showed the wife of Chief of Staff Mark Meadows carrying a stuffed pheasant to a vehicle, Camerota sniffed, "I don't know where she got [it]."

Mayor de Blasio is hoping a federal stimulus package akin to FDR’s New Deal will help curtail crime in the Big Apple, he said Monday. Speaking to NY1’s Errol Louis, Hizzoner said if Joe Biden is elected president, New Yorkers should expect a stimulus deal that will help get the city “back on its feet” and combat a spike in murders, shootings and burglaries. “If Joe Biden’s elected president, the most likely time for a major stimulus is February, and I’m thinking along the lines of the New Deal, and he’s obviously talking about emulating FDR,” the mayor said. “The...

Sexist Democrats for Bernie! According to a recent Wall Street Journal and NBC News poll, Hillary Clinton is currently laboring under a hefty 56% unfavorable rating. Please be aware that this is not her fault. The fine panel at CNN’s New Day with Chris Cuomo wants you to know that the problem lies not with Hillary, but with you. Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat, or Independent, you should be “ready for Hillary.” If you’re not, there’s a good chance you simply don’t like Mrs. Clinton it’s because you’re sexist. As CNN political commentator Errol Louis points out, it’s not decades...

During a protest against Hillary Clinton on Friday, supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) threw $1,001 in singles at Clinton’s motorcade as she was on her way to attend a fundraiser at the home of George Clooney, CNN reported. The protestors said the demonstration was supposed to represent the absurdity of campaign finance laws and to protest the amount of money funneled into political campaigns by Wall Street and wealthy celebrities. Once Clinton’s motorcade drove through the protest, Sanders’ supporters “danced in the street, stomping on the dollar bills.” One protestor named Howard Gold explained he doesn’t support the...

Over the weekend, Bernie Sanders supporters staked out Hillary Clinton’s George Clooney-hosted fundraiser in San Francisco and threw actual dollar bills at her motorcade as she drove by. They did so to decry the corrupting force of money in politics, but Clinton’s campaign has actively painted it as a misogynistic attempt to liken her to a “whore.” This narrative likely stems from a comment made by Sanders supporter and prominent healthcare activist Dr. Paul Song at a recent rally. "Medicare-for-all will never happen if we continue to elect corporate Democratic whores who are beholden to big pharma and the private...

CNN political commentator and NY1 host Errol Louis said during a Monday morning discussion that the reason Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has such high unfavorability numbers in most polls was because of unconscious sexism on the part of respondents. New Day host Chris Cuomo asked Louis about a recent Wall Street Journal/NBC poll that found that even among Democrats, Clinton had a 56% unfavorable rating. “Let me suggest, because some of her strategists have said this kind of quietly, it’s not really a big thing on this campaign trail: a lot of this is sexism,” he responded “It’s buried...

Some of the most interesting and energetic Republicans in New York won't be in Madison Square Garden this week. They're young party outsiders who have been running spirited campaigns in politically hostile districts for the last few years, only to be thwarted at every turn - primarily by leaders of their own party. The dispute appears to be based on ideology. The young, self-styled urban Republicans call themselves conservative in the tradition of Ronald Reagan: devoted to low taxes, less government, school vouchers and a no-nonsense approach to crime and national security. The chieftains of the New York GOP often...
