    Texas has come under heavy scrutiny in recent months over their laws protecting preborn children from abortion, with state legislators accused of putting women’s lives at risk, all because women cannot electively kill their preborn children. Texas laws do allow an abortion if the mother “has a life-threatening physical condition aggravated by, caused by, or arising from a pregnancy that places [her] at risk of death or poses a substantial impairment of a major bodily function unless an abortion is performed.” Yet this is deemed to be cruel and insufficient to safeguard women’s health — so much so that an...

    The office for New York City Mayor Eric Adams says it supports the 'spirit' of a legislation that could trigger black New Yorkers to be paid reparations for slavery. Sideya Sherman, commissioner of the Mayor's Office of Equity, said the controversial bill should be tweaked to avoid overlapping with two comparable state bills. The bill, which was created by Councilwoman Farah Louis to launch a task force to study the effects of racial discrimination on the city could potentially lead to payments being issued, The Post reports.

    Renowned investigative journalist Seymour Hersh has claimed that the U.S.-led war effort in Ukraine is “all lies.”According to Hersh, the war is already “over” and “Russia has won.”The veteran reporter alleges that the CIA and MI-6 have been running a “secret disinformation operation” to convince the public to keep funding “the war.”He says the American and British intelligence agencies have been misleading the public about the disastrous state of the war effort.“The war is over. Russia has won,” a senior U.S. intel official reportedly told Hersh.“There is no Ukrainian offensive anymore, but the White House and the American media have...

    A rich-kid New Yorker is among the nearly two dozen “violent agitators” charged with domestic terrorism after a protest at the site of a future Atlanta police training facility descended into chaos. Mattia Luini, 30, and his fellow protesters are accused of carrying out Sunday’s “coordinated attack” on the under-construction Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, which saw cops pelted with Molotov cocktails and fireworks. Luini, whose late father, Ivan Luini, helped popularize high-end plastic furniture in the US, was still stuck behind bars as of Tuesday afternoon, online court records showed. His mother, Micaela Martegani, who is involved in the...

    Republican insiders believe “the GOP Is Poised for a Blowout,” according to the New Yorker, a very pro-establishment magazine. The GOP is leading because Democrat strategists spent much of the election season touting the issues favored by the very liberal bloc of college-credentialled white women, according to the November 4 article, which quoted a GOP strategist saying:

    Apparently New Yorker contributing writer Graciela Mochkofsky hasn't gotten the message yet, which has been repeated over and over again for the past few years, that a vast majority of the Spanish speaking community in the United States finds the incredibly awkward word "Latinx" to be both absurd as well as offensive.In 2020, Washington Post reporter Jose A. Del Real wrote that "Users of “Latinx” are accused of being out of touch with working-class Latino communities and of practicing linguistic imperialism on the Spanish language, which, like French and Italian, is grammatically gendered."Mochkofsky's Friday story, "A Different Kind of Bid...

    Disgraced CNN legal contributor Jeffrey Toobin wrote an opinion article on Tuesday that complained Republicans are winning the “ideological war” at Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court confirmation hearing. Toobin, who was caught masturbating on a Zoom call with former colleagues at the New Yorker but returned to CNN after a seven-week suspension, penned an op-ed noting Democrats are allowing Republicans to win the debate over how the constitution should be read. “Conservatives Are Winning the Ideological War at Jackson’s Hearing,” the headline read.

    NewsBusters ^ | 1/20/2022 | Jeffrey Clark
    New Yorker Staff Writer David Owen took a nosedive into eco-extremism. He argued that the refrigerator has become — wait for it — “an agent of climate catastrophe.” Owen pontificated in a blog headlined, “How the Refrigerator Became an Agent of Climate Catastrophe,” that “[t]he evolution of cooling technology helps to explain why supposed solutions to global warming have only made the situation worse.” Specifically, he identified refrigerators, these unassuming little machines, as the vile culprits “of our unfolding climate catastrophe.” Really? Owen wrote as if refrigerators are cartoon villains who chomp on cigars while they devise the destruction of...

    The New Yorker is uneasy about conservative radio host Dan Bongino’s rising prominence in conservative media, so it did an over 9,000-word smear of him. Talk about living rent-free in someone’s brain. The profile, headlined “Dan Bongino and the Big Business of Returning Trump to Power,” had the audacity to connect the radio host to the Capitol Hill Riot. “Spend several months immersed in American talk radio and you’ll come away with the sense that the violence of January 6th was not the end of something but the beginning,” staff writer and CNN contributor Evan Osnos groaned.

    A subsidiary of a taxpayer-funded radio organization co-produced a podcast segment with the liberal New Yorker magazine that actually promoted “eco-terrorism.” WNYC Studios co-produced an eco-extremist segment with The New Yorker that was headlined, “How to Blow Up a Pipeline.” The segment, headed up by magazine editor David Remnick, was the nexus of the entire Sept. 24 edition of The New Yorker Radio Hour. The podcast had an asinine headline: “Should the Climate Movement Embrace Sabotage?” Remnick fear-mongered how “the effects of climate change are already here and they’re catastrophic” before it gave a platform to the crazy views of...

    The New Yorker hosted environmental activist and professor Andreas Malm on their podcast where he promoted "intelligent sabotage" and property damage as a way to stop climate change. "Andreas Malm insists that the environmental movement rethink its roots in nonviolence and instead embrace ‘intelligent sabotage,’" the description of the interview states. In the podcast, Malm, who is a professor from Lund University, emphasized "a call for escalation...

    Last year, New Yorker columnist Susan Glasser was so depressed/exhausted by Trump that she invented, with the help of a friend,an unpronounceable German word to describe Trump, "Trumpregierungsschlamasselschmerz." She delighted Stephen Colbert as she explained: "Trump, you got that. Regnorran is government. Schlamassle is what it sounds like, craziness. And then schmerz, is like soul-sickness. So it's like Trump government craziness soul-sickness."There were celebrations aplenty at MSNBC and similar places where Trump-loathing runs rampant when it was announced that the Trump Organization CFO Alan Weisselberg was indicted for not paying taxes on company fringe benefits. It was fervently hoped that...

    While Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez represents part of the Bronx and Queens, she's not really a New Yorker. Although born in the Bronx, the socialist congresswoman was brought up in non-diverse, chi-chi Yorktown Heights (median household income: $137,580) and attended pricy Boston University (annual tuition: $58,560). Her policies has been disastrous for her constituents, whether on a local or national scale. Now she has a challenger. Tina Forte, a Bronx native, an athlete, a passionate MAGA-supporter and patriot, and a social influencer with a sizable following has announced her candidacy and has a knock-yer-socks-off introductory campaign video. What Forte has is grit,...

    Republican Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney “secretly orchestrated” an op-ed in the Washington Post from all living former secretaries of defense slamming former President Trump’s handling of the military in January, according to the New Yorker. Eric Edelman, a friend of Cheney’s, reportedly told the New Yorker that Cheney had personally met with all 10 living former defense secretaries, including Trump’s first defense secretary, Jim Mattis, urging them to participate in the op-ed. The report comes as Cheney is facing an onslaught of criticism from pro-Trump factions in the Republican Party who want to see her removed from the GOP leadership...

Dianne Feinstein about taking away her leadership position on the Senate Judiciary Committee. “It was like Groundhog Day, but with the pain fresh each time,” Schumer told New Yorker writer Jane Mayer about his conversations with Feinstein, age 87. “Anyone who has tried to take the car keys away from an elderly relative knows how hard it can be.”

    It’s not Trump supporters who are living in a fantasyland, but members of the corporate media who sense their power and influence waning.With the end of Donald Trump’s presidency fast approaching, we’ve seen a surge of columns and posts asserting that Republicans and Trump supporters have lost touch with reality. After four years of marinating in “falsehoods” and “disinformation”—a term that really just means “information I don’t like”—Trump’s backers are all turned around, we’re told. They believe much that isn’t so. David Brooks of The New York Times explains that these poor saps, most of whom, he says, are uneducated,...

    Hunter Biden, the son of 2020 Democratic hopeful and former Vice President Joe Biden, brushed off President Donald Trump's call for an investigation into his business deals with foreign powers. In a feature published by The New Yorker on Monday, Hunter Biden said when he first saw reports of Trump's threats he also noticed a helicopter flying overhead. "I said, 'I hope they're taking pictures of us right now. I hope it's a live feed of the President so he can see just how much I care about the tweets,'" he told the magazine. He added that he also told...

    The New Yorker has suspended reporter Jeffrey Toobin. Sources tell VICE it’s because he exposed himself during a Zoom call last week between members of the New Yorker and WNYC radio. Toobin said in a statement to Motherboard: “I made an embarrassingly stupid mistake, believing I was off-camera. I apologize to my wife, family, friends and co-workers.” “I believed I was not visible on Zoom. I thought no one on the Zoom call could see me. I thought I had muted the Zoom video,” he added. New Yorker spokesperson Natalie Raabe said: “Jeffrey Toobin has been suspended while we investigate...
